The boldly named Illegal Nutrition in the United Kingdom has been around for some time and has quite a strong reputation behind it. Over the last few weeks, it has been teasing a promising “revolutionary new ingredient”, described as a stimulant of some kind. The brand has put that previously mysterious component into the new version of its premier pre-workout simply named Premium Pre-Workout.
Illegal Nutrition’s Premium Pre-Workout V2 is intended to be an improved version, and the focus of it is that much hyped new ingredient that the brand itself has trademarked as X. Now that the product is out and available, the formula is revealed, and we can confirm that X is actually paraxanthine. It is the caffeine metabolite that has grown a lot over the last few years, as Enfinity paraxanthine, first seen in MuscleTech’s pre-workout EuphoriQ.
While X isn’t as groundbreaking as we had hoped or expected, Illegal Nutrition is doing something interesting with the dosage in Premium Pre-Workout V2. Typically, you see paraxanthine at the same amount as a typical level of caffeine, although with X, the brand pushed up to 600mg in its maximum serving. That’s not the only thing Illegal Nutrition has put in there for energy and focus; there is also enXtra, also at a hefty 600mg, 300mg of theanine, and a good amount of huperzine A at 600mcg.

Premium Pre-Workout V2 is still a comprehensive competitor, and Illegal Nutrition has a whole host of pump-enhancers alongside X, enXtra, and all of that. Taking care of that is a huge 12g of citrulline malate, 750mg of ViNitrox, 300mg of AmentoPump, 75mg of S7, and 750mg of FitNOX. It’s a spree of premium, proven, and reliable pump ingredients, plus the ever-reliable AstraGin for better absorption and efficacy.
Illegal Nutrition has gone through quite the lengthy process to test its Premium Pre-Workout V2, sampling it with fans and ensuring it hits with X, as there isn’t any caffeine in there. The supplement relies entirely on that hefty 600mg of paraxanthine and enXtra to pack a punch, plus the extensive pump side. If you like the sound of the brand’s new product, you can get it through Illegal’s website at £44.99 for a tub of 20 servings.
