Retailer Xplosiv entered the beverage market with the energy drink Ping, which was followed by the powder pre-workout Ping Xtreme; then, earlier this year, we got a beverage version of Ping Xtreme. Xplosiv and its Ping saga continue this month with the same sort of spin-off as Ping Xtreme recently got, but the other way around, with a powder pre-workout Ping.
Unlike the Ping Xtreme drink and Ping Xtreme pre-workout, Xplosiv’s Ping pre-workout does not feature the same formula as the original on-the-go Ping beverage, at least regarding dosages. In a full serving of the retailer and brand’s latest supplement, it has essentially doubled the amount of everything, although even with that, it’s not an impressive pre-workout.
That maximum two-scoop serving of Xplosiv’s Ping powder product packs 1.316g of betaine, 1.96g of pure citrulline, 2.1g of beta-alanine, 52mg of tyrosine, and a moderate 210mg of caffeine. To give you an idea on what else is out there, most competitive pre-workouts have about twice the betaine at 2.5g, much higher citrulline at 6g or more, and 1.5g+ of tyrosine.
Those in New Zealand can now grab the very straightforward Ping pre-workout supplement from Xplosiv’s online store and at a price that’s not all that surprising for what’s inside the product. A full-size tub of 30 maximum servings or 60 half servings will currently cost you $39.96 (27.23 USD) in three flavors, Tiki Punch, Charge Grape, and Tropicana.
