I honestly want to keep this short, simple, and straight to the point. I know normal people don't want to read an essay when seeking supplement recommendations.
-Ran this at a scoop or 2 a day right before lifting, about 5 minutes prior.
-You don't need more than 1 scoop. Seriously, I'm not a rep, I don't care if you buy this or not, I just feel 2 makes your heart feel like its going to pop. 1 is great.
-I love this product because its basically Caffeine with tons of vitamin B12.
-It makes you immediate grab a feeling of well being; you really can feel it immediately.
-Its not my favorite pre, but its definitely a nice alternative to the ones with 1,3 Di & Creatine in them. I mean its nice to regain a tolerance to those ingrediants.
-Animal Rage taste like crap. Don't be a baby, chug it.
-I'm trying the pills next because its just way more conveniant.
-Great pre workout, just kind of a blown up price. I got mine for $45.00 which I think is too much.
-Lots of servings by the way.

Let me first put forth that I am a huge fan of Universal Nutrition Products especially M-Stak and Stak. I just finished my 44 servings of Animal Rage "Orange Juic-d" flavored pre-workout. I purchased mine for $29.99 which I feel is a pretty good value. I will outline and comment on the ingredients of Animal Rage before giving my conclusion.

Endurance and Performance Complex (5/10): Beta Alanine, L-Taurine, and others.
-This is one of the negatives of the product. I usually like a hefty dosage of Beta Alanine but the itch is almost too overwhelming.
-Rage is not the best 'Endurance' supplement and you definitely do not feel a pump
-There are few BCAAS and Creatine to give you any performance enhancements.

Focus and Intensity Complex (9/10): Choline Bitartrate, n-Acetyl Tyrosine, and others.
-You definitely feel an extreme boost almost immediately after taking Animal Rage.
-The intensity is through the roof.
-This product deserves the name "RAGE"

Sustained Energy Complex (6/10): Rosea Extract, Schizandra.
-Basically these ingredients are just mood enhancers and DO NOT give you sustained energy.
-You can at most get a good 45 mins to an hour of very stimulated energy
-Again there is No arginine, no agmatine sulphate, no creatine, and NO PUMP
-This is a NEGATIVE about animal rage.

Quick Energy Complex (8/10): Caffeine, Coffee Bean Extract (a.k.a. Caffeine), Green Tea Extract (Caffeine).
-I guess this is one of the highlights of Animal Rage, the re-occuring theme of EXTREME STIMULANTS.
-You definitely get an extreme boost of energy from Animal Rage.
-It is not sustainable energy.
-All of these ingredients are codename for CAFFEINE.

Flavor (2/10): Orange Juic-D is straight up GROSS, CHALKY, AND LEAVES A DISGUSTING AFTER TASTE.

Conclusion and Overall Rating (6/10):
As I said early I am a huge fan of Universal Nutrition products but Animal Rage really just was a mess of a product. The overwhelming dosage of beta alanine and the beefy stimulant ingredient profile gives you an extreme 'rage,' intensified, focus workout, however the crash is pretty bad and there is NO PUMP. I could not workout any harder than if I was 'sober,' did not get any pump, and did not experience any strength gains.'

Try it if you want because in the end this review is my opinion. HOWEVER, DO NOT GET ORANGE JUIC-D flavor it is just not good. plain and simple.

Universal is an awesome company and rage is another example of their commitment to the consumer, kind of. I love the effects on the cns and the mental acuity and over all awesome feelings it doles out are great. There is no better concentrate stim in the market. It is missing a few things though. Creating would be nice with it. I would mind some bcaa complex either but it is a good solid product nonetheless. The best effect I saw was stacking it with animal pump and taking the stims out of pump before washing it down with rage powder. It is like liquid jet fuel for your head and the name of the product is very appropriate as it makes you want to smash everything you can find during the course of a workout. When stacked with pump it gets expensive, but damn does it work. I just wish they had put pump in it first.

Would definitely recommend this product I bought this product on a recommendation as a substitute for jack3d as I had built up a tolerance to it and was goin through a jug every three weeks. Not good for the wallet or health. Anyways Rage is the real deal alone it gives me all of the pump I experienced with jack3d with less of the jitters and I only need one dose a workout compared to three with jack3d. The taste (while irrelevant) is terrible for the orange flavor (taste like chewing vitamin C pills, just pound it), the slaughtermelon is pretty decent tasting if you have a choice of either go with the latter. The price was $39.95 but cheaper on the internet (jack3d was about $10 cheaper however id go through it much faster). This product by itself is very effective but if your really looking to get that ridiculous pump I stack it with 3 nX6 pills which blows me up.

I cycled off of any PW drink for a Month and thought I would give Animal Rage a shot. I haven't been this DISappointed since Joe Weiders Carbo Energizers. What a waste. I felt absolutely NO RAGE. I had to triple the dose to feel anything. The taste was just ok if your into chewable vitamins. Since there was no High there was obviously no Crash except the Emotional Crash you feel when you get Jacked. The upside to this product is that my wife really liked it before she does Spin Class because it gives her just enough of a boost to make it to the gym. I'm a HUGE fan of 1MR it has always done what it says it will do. I know the Marketing Department at Animal will feel the RAGE of when clients Stop buying animal Products!!!!!

I started working outside for a summer job everyday, and I wanted a pre workout supp that wouldnt make me crash, since I would go right to work after.

Effectiveness: 6/10
A big downside to Rage is that it has no creatine, or arginine. So you wont get that "pump" feeling that everyone loves. It says to take the pills 45 mins, prior to workout. It doesnt really matter though. This supp is mostly b12, and other herbal extracts. A big thing for me was I felt like I could push harder. I would bike 5-10 miles, sometimes I felt so good I'd do even 15. To be optimally effective it should be stacked with Animal Pump.

Value: 8/10
Its a good value for what it is. I paid $35 for 44 packs or servings, and I only used 3 a week. It lasted me awhile and it helped me with my workouts a bit so I think its a pretty good value.

Overall: 7/10
It doesnt have a very high effectiveness on an overall scale, but I still thought it was a good quality product. Universal makes an awsome line of training packs. It was a good value at the price and for how long it lasted me. I'd recommend this to individuals who like to run, bike, swim etc. If you want to use it for actual weight lifting, stack with other products that have creatine and/or arginine.

I have used Animal Pump, m-stak jack3d and rage. I have to say im a big fan of jack3d but saw rage and thought i would try it. It did not give me the PW "rage" and intensity that i tought it would, i got more of that feeling from jack3d which i personally like. The rage part kind of kicked in during the middle of the workout. The best things that i got out of this product was a good pump very little fatigue, and no crash. I got the orange flavor powder and thought it tasted terrible. To me the product was like Animal Pump pretty much. I will for sure go back to jack3d. I have been a big fan of Universal animal products but this one just did not do it for me. I would say it would go #1-Jack3d(for all around intensity,pump and build) #2-animal m-stak(for building muscle) #3-animal pump(for an amazing pump and intense workout) #4-animal rage(for an OK pump and no crash or fatigue)

Well here's my review on this hyped up product.

I received free sample packets from Universal and I was EXCITED about it! I hear SOOO many good things about this company I wanted 2 find out 4 myself! Well I took it and NO bull*** it tasted horrible, it has a orange vitamin crushed up taste but like I say don't knock a product just because the taste. Like u are taking it 4 a reason (my reason 2 bodybuild) so don't *** and be a punk about the damn product just take it! SIMPLE!

10Mins Later I felt it kicking in, I wasn't sure if it was just the pumped up music that I was listening 2 or just because I was already excited about taking the "new product" or what. I waited 45mins then 1st started out with jogging 1mile just 2 get the blood flowin! Then I started hittin the weights HARD! It HONESTLY didn't kick in until EXACTLY an hr. BUT when it did kick in it hit with INTENSITY! My workouts were more intense I RANDOMLY got a boost of energy and I lifted even harder. But I would say after u get done working out 20mins later the pumped feeling its GONE!
It didn't give me the EXACT feeling i was looking 4 (the rage feeling)BUT It did work.

OHHHH btw some small details about how I felt while taking it would be, a tingly feeling, body got warmer (u have 2 take it 2 understand), Ego booster out of HELL!

(No side effects)
I would say It's worth a shot!

I'm STILL looking 4 that supplement that gives me that rage type feeling but seems like I can't find out!
"Any recommendations would b great, THX"

I have never reviewed a supplement before and felt the disappointment experienced with this product was a good place to start.

For a number of years now I’ve avoided the indulgence of supplements because many youthful years of giving the hype a chance never delivered anything except inevitable disappointment. However, a recent, but tentative return to pre workout stimulants was welcomed with a surprising effect from NO-EXPLODE.

With renewed enthusiasm for supplements I was once again molested by the hype of RAGE and eagerly scurried away from the store clutching a bag containing “The Ultimate pre workout supplement”. If I were to create an analogy for RAGE, it would be going on a first date with a beautiful looking girl who says all the right things only to make it to the bedroom and find out she use to be called Dave and is still packing meat.

On this occasion I feel like I was well and truly rogered by “Dave”. With the exception of a sore bum from diarrhoea and nauseous solvent/paint type feeling of intoxication, it offered absolutely nothing.

At the considerable price of this supplement I would suggest to anyone interested in trying it to search around and get it as cheap as possible or better still, see if you can get a free sample or tester from somewhere. It may just be that this product wasn’t right for me. But I have since given some to my training partner who doesn’t even drink tea or coffee and he returned a verdict after trying a 1, and then 2 scoop serving – “What is it suppose to do?. I didn’t feel anything.”

I guess you have to experience these things as an individual but I was extremely disappointed in Animal Rage which has now made me very reluctant to throw anymore of my hard earned cash at their product range.

In my opinion Animal need to seriously review this supplement and endeavour to drastically improve its effects before having the audacity to market it with such baseless hype. Give me a nice cup of coffee over this impotent nonsense any day of the week.

This is by far the best pre workout supplement on the market. It doesnt make me feel like im on Crack like Jack3d does. And the ingredients in it and very health beneficial. No erectyle disfuncion like most of the pre workout drinks out there!! I only use a half scoop and i feel really good, mood is awesome, strength is up, and the price isnt too bad either.
