Transparently dosed pre-workout with clinical amounts of key ingredients. Slightly aggressive stimulant profile but backed by real doses, not pixie dust.
Gorilla Mode stands out in a category dominated by proprietary blends and underdosed formulas. Full dose transparency is a major plus. The L-Citrulline dose exceeds clinical minimums. Caffeine at 350mg works for stimulant-tolerant users. Hype penalty for influencer-driven marketing and some ingredients (huperzine A) with limited pre-workout evidence. Safety score reflects the high stimulant load.
Gorilla Mode uses clinically relevant doses of several evidence-based pre-workout ingredients: L-Citrulline at 9g (research supports 6-8g), GlycerPump at 3g, Creatine at 5g, Betaine at 2.5g, and L-Tyrosine at 1.5g. The caffeine content at 350mg is on the higher end but within studied ranges. Malic acid, agmatine, and huperzine A have less robust evidence but are disclosed with full doses.
| Ingredient | Dose | Verdict |
|---|---|---|
| L-Citrulline | 9g | Optimal |
| Creatine Monohydrate | 5g | Optimal |
| GlycerPump | 3g | Optimal |
| Betaine Anhydrous | 2.5g | Optimal |
| L-Tyrosine | 1.5g | Optimal |
| Caffeine Anhydrous | 350mg | Adequate |
| Huperzine A | 400mcg | Unnecessary |
350mg caffeine per serving is aggressive -- not suitable for caffeine-sensitive individuals. Huperzine A has limited evidence for acute exercise performance. The brand's marketing relies heavily on social media influencer culture. Some users report GI discomfort from the high-dose L-Citrulline.
