No big secret that I'm a massive Cellucor fan. I want the best bang for my buck in terms of my workout, protein, and just about every supplement in-between.
I previously used the old C4 nonstop and loved it. when I heard Cellucor was coming out with a new Generation 4 series, I knew some of the supplements were going to be awesome as expected.

Before we jump in, I like to do pretty in depth reviews because I want to make sure I cover all my bases while providing a reasonable stance on new products. if you haven't seen my Cellucor Mass Whey review you can see that here - (Cellucor mass whey review).
Cellucor does not pay me or make me do these reviews, these are purely my options of new products entirely based off my expense. now lets get to the good stuff...
I base my review off 8 different factors then give the product being reviewed an overall grade. So here we go people.

I base my review off 8 different factors then give the product being reviewed an overall grade. So here we go people.
- Appearance - Obviously this design is clutch. Cellucor products are always eye-catching which plays a big part in the marketability factor. So this container is decked out and is sick. The whole container is chrome and the product clearly states what its for and its purpose. no mombo-jumbo description. Right to the point, and the color to the flavor label is a nice touch. compared to all other companies selling their pre, I would hands down say this is the coolest container Ive seen to date, and I have had my fare share of various pre workouts. 10/10
- Taste - Lets just be real here. Some (and by some I mean most) Pre workouts taste like hell. I've had pre workouts before that taste like somebody put dawn soap in a shaker and added a splash of water and ice. that is one thing i wouldn't want anyone to experience.... I'm looking at you BPI hahahah. The good news is this is the best flavor pre workout I've ever had. my go-to before the new G4 series was the Pink lemonade, I was never a fan of the fruit flavors because they didn't taste right to me. they all tasted like kids cough syrup which is god awful. This Strawberry Margarita flavor G4 is like heaven. like a little tropical getaway right in my shaker cup. I want something refreshing and reviving before my workout, and this is just the perfect taste. 9/10
- Flavor - I would think this flavor would be hard to beat. since the old C4 strawberry Margarita wasn't my favorite I can only imagine what all the other flavors taste like. can't want to try the rest of them soon. 9/10
- Mixibility - I've had some Pre workouts that were clumpy and wouldn't mix at all.....we're talking like dead fishes of pre floating at the top of my shaker. The new C4 mixes so well I thought I did something wrong. literally so smooth, and absolutely no clumps or little grains of sandy leftover pre at the bottom of your cup. all mixed, all absorbed, all delicious. 10/10
- Pump - Overall the pump is great. The first serving I had fell on my leg day and I was very impressed with the pump. In my mind when a pre has a good pump you know its make with quality ingredients. This new mixture seems to have the perfect ratio of beta alanine, arginine, and other ingredients to make you have an optimal performance in any high training situation including bodybuilding, crossfire, or even powerlifting. 8/10
- Performance - This was by far the best part for me. mentally the new C4 got me in the zone. Were talking like 4th quarter Super Bowl grind time. way to impressed in terms of performance. within the first 2 weeks of taking this i have hit 3 new Pr's including my incline press and leg press. 10/10
- Side effects - Really no crazy side effects with this pre. Every Pre workout is going to make you a little itchy when you first start drinking it (due to Beta alanine) but thats to be expected, and usually is a sign of a solid pre workout. 10/10
- My Experience - I would say my experience was excellent. I thought the old C4 was amazing..... well wait till you try the new G4. simply a great per workout, and I can't wait to try the other flavors. 9/10
Overall in my book the new Generation 4 Strawberry Margarita C4 gets a 9/10.
