ESN makes yet another version of its Crank pre-workout that simply adds beta-alanine

Esn Crank Plus Beta Alanine

The German giant ESN has a few pre-workouts on the market, all under its signature “Crank” name, including Crank Pump Pro, Crank Ultimate, Crank Golden Pump, Crank Focus Pro, the Crank Energy Drink, and, obviously, the regular Crank pre-workout. Interestingly, despite it being such a crucial ingredient here in the US, none of those have the ever-present, endurance and performance ingredient beta-alanine, usually in there at like 3.2g a serving.

ESN is about to change that stance with a separate version of Crank that specifically infuses a reliable dosage of beta-alanine in Crank + Beta-Alanine. Everything else from the regular edition of the pre-workout is still very much in there, including tyrosine for focus, taurine and rhodiola for performance, pure citrulline and classic arginine AKG for muscle pumps, and finally, the always enjoyable caffeine anhydrous at a moderate 200mg a serving.

Crank + Beta-Alanine is very much what the name implies, in that it is ESN’s signature stimulant pre-workout Crank, combined with an efficacious dosage of performance-powering beta-alanine. It still has a full 20 servings per tub, enough for once-per-workout for an entire month when training the usual five times a week. There is significantly fewer flavors to start for Crank + Beta-Alanine, just one on launch, and that is Tropical Punch.
