How is it compared to superpump max?
Never tried superpump, but this stuff gets you buzzing!!
From my experience its the best of the bunch, there isnt much of a buzz (maybe I'm just used to the caffeine levels) but you just keep going and going.
tends to clump up and go quite hard after opening
The stuff, or your muscles?
A cheap alternative is a tall glass of full cream milk mixed with one raw egg and a tablespoon of honey. This is what I have been using after workouts for the past ten years and it has never let me down.
This is a preworkout. mostly caffeine and some questionable energy gaining chemicals. I am sure it does the job though! also you should read up on protein synthesis of raw eggs - many studies indicating the body has difficulty processing the protein fractions in raw egg, so you dont actually get much of the benefit of the 100BV in the egg. IIRC the trick is the egg proteins need to be heated to above 50deg C or something to become easily digested.
Best preworkout formula is an an empty stomach :)
This can be combated by taking digestive enzimes like this: http://www.iherb.com/Now-Foods/Super-Enzymes?gclid=CPKIz5nHq…
There is good evidence that dietary sources of protein aren't inferior to supplement form: we use these with elite athletes as it's easier to standardise diet across a team/group. RE: caffeine and pre workout - have you read about the relative dose required for ergogenicity? 120 mg is less than the minimal dose required for any benefit for either adenosine blockade, or hypoalgesic effects. There is nothing wrong with (some) supplements, but inform yourself with what you're purchasing, else you buy an expensive placebo.
Beware there could be import restrictions on this kind of thing.
Example: this is prohibited without authority:
Anabolic and androgenic substances to enhance muscle and bone growth. Health supplements and formulas may contain these substances.
One thing to be also wary of is DMAA, which is illegal now. But from a quick skim of the ingredients list this looks fine.
The most exciting thing is that this pre-workout contains Creatine HCL, which should be ALOT more bio available than creatine monohydrate that most other pre workouts come with.
Good info here if anyone is interested: http://www.mrsupplement.com.au/creatine-hcl-hydrochloride
I wouldn't consider creatine to be a pre-workout substance. If you're already taking creatine regularly (which you should, within guidelines) then I don't see the point of getting more in your pre-workout.
IMO choice of pre-workout should be based on whatever gives you a good pump and keeps you going throughout your workout. As soon as you start involving nutrition you over-complicate the simple task of the pre-workout.
To me, the interesting thing about this pre-workout is the beta-alanine. I've never tried it before, but has reportedly good results. Some people have bad responses to the stuff, you can get an itching/burning sensation on your skin. There are no long-term negative effects, and in fact some people say that the sensation pushes them harder, and others simply say its distracting and irritating.
More info available on wikipedia:
"β-Alanine, provided in solution or as powder in gelatine capsules, however, causes paraesthesia when ingested in amounts above 10 mg per kg body weight (bwt).[5] This is variable between individuals."
"Paraesthesia is a sensation of tickling, tingling, burning, pricking, or numbness of a person's skin with no apparent long-term physical effect. It is more generally known as the feeling of "pins and needles" or of a limb "falling asleep"."

I think you are right, the product contains yohimbe extract which is banned..
http://www.tga.gov.au/safety/alerts-medicine-oxyelite-110708…
Consumers are advised that Yohimbine is a prescription-only substance in Australia; however it is not approved for supply in any registered medicine within Australia. Yohimbine is also a prohibited import under Customs legislation without appropriate permits. Yohimbine can pose serious health risks for people with underlying risk factors.
ie. THIS MAY GET SEIZED BY CUSTOMS - it has been known to happen and not all companies refund.
