    I absolutely love this product. The flavors are so good that it actually makes you look forward to drinking it. There’s no jittery effect or the burning and tingling that makes your skin crawl. This is an amazing product that really works and I can’t wait to try the rest of them! Thank you Unico for serious supplements that seriously motivate me to work out!!

    THIS is by far my favorite Pre-workout! 🙂 I’ve used C-4 Ripped, JYm and others but this is one that I love everything about it.
    The taste is amazing…I’ve had the Watermelon WAVE (My fav)and the Cherry Limeade. They both are great tasting and easy to drink. I’m on my 4th order. I like getting the subtle energy burst since I workout at 4:00am I can blast off 4-10 miles and lift weights, stay focused and complete my whole routine. This has helped me get back in the gym consistently and not feel over-worked.
    I will be a repeat customer!!!!!

    Watermelon Wave is what I currently have and I am not disappointed with this pre workout. I am usually not a fan because they always make me jittery and crash after my workout, but this one doesn’t do either of those things. It gives me a great pump for my workout, and the energy I need when I am running low. I used it before doing cardio and then a kickboxing class and both times it came through for me. The only complaint I have is the taste seems a little off. I love anything watermelon, but this just tastes a little weird to me. I use a little bit less than a full scoop and it tastes better though. I will definitely keep using this pre workout because it is the best. Literally.

    I’ve tried all of the flavors and was content with the strawberry limeade so I wasn’t sure if I should try the watermelon but I’m so SO glad I did! The strawberry is good compared to other preworkout drinks I’ve tried but it was still hard for me to get it all down. Yet somehow, I don’t think I could drink the watermelon faster if I tried. It seriously tastes AMAZING!!! Please please please keep this as a regular flavor!! Aside from the flavor, I’m obsessed with all of the Athena Intense preworkouts. Even if I’m super unmotivated, this keeps me hyped all throughout my workouts and doesn’t make me feel jittery or crash after.

    I have been using pre workout for 4 years and this is the only one I have ever bought over and over again! This is the cleanest energy I have ever felt, I dont get nauseous or jittery like I have with almost every other pre workout to date. The watermelon is also delicious! I have never felt so naturally pumped for a workout in my life! I have given away half of the ones I buy to make my friends try to see how well it works!

  6. Rebecca (verified owner)

    Overall the product is amazing. I’d give it a 5 if just talking about th Watermelon flavor which is…awesome. Tastes so good. But the other favors aren’t nearly as good. But, my favorite preworkout so far.

    Okay, this is my 3rd week of taking Athena Intense, M-F, and I feel ready for a review!

    PROS:
    *Great energy from start of workout (I’ve been running and then lifting weights at 5:45 a.m.) I’m able to get up, and out the door.

    *Energy sustains through the rest of the day. This is a big one for me, since I have 4 kids under the age of 8, I work, and my husband is a full-time student – our days are busy! I needed something that would help me work out hard enough to get results, but also not need to crash, or feel like I need to eat ALL THE THINGS! It’s not a cracked-out type of energy, but I just feel good all day.

    *My recovery feels better. I’m not super achy, and tired, and sore the next day, even when I’ve worked myself much harder than before. Oh! I also used to swell – my calves, and my hands after a run, but I don’t with this! Random, but nice 🙂

    *Dissolves very well (teeny, tiny granules, not even a pinch’s worth, is all that’s in the bottom of the cup). I found that shaking it rather than just stirring it will give you the best results.

    CONS:
    *I’m one of those people that gets the Beta-alanine tingles! It freaked me out when it first happened, the pins and needles feeling in my forearms, calves, and feet. It has gotten less and less as I’ve used it consistently, but still a bit funky for me.

    *Price. I know you get what you pay for, and the quality has been amazing, but it’s still a little bit higher than I would like.

    *Taste – everyone raves about it, but it’s okay for me. I got the strawberry limeade and it’s not something I would want to sip and savor for sure – it’s more of a chug and get it done. But everyone’s tastes are different, so keep that in mind.

    Bottom Line – I’m ordering it again. I’m seeing results from my hard work, and I’d like that to continue! I’ve been working out consistently since October 2015, and haven’t had ANY progress, but with Athena Intense, I’m seeing results in just the 3 weeks I’ve been using it. I’m able to work out at a more intense pace, with more focus and drive, and eat a healthy, balanced diet – all the things I haven’t been able to do on my own, no matter how much I pulled on my bootstraps 😉

    The obsession is for real!! The strawberry limeade is sent from heaven with how amazing it is. I got through my ENTIRE workout without complaining I was tired. I felt so amazing and now I am addicted!!! No lie, the best tasting with amazing outcomes and no jitters. YOU NEED THIS MOTIVATIONAL GOODNESS IN YOUR LIFE!

    WATERMELON WAVE — WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN ALL MY LIFE!
    Seriously, so in love with this pre-workout,I do love them all but I cannot say enough how much I love this one, I hope you decide to keep this flavor (PLEASE!!!!), and I want to buy a lifetime supply!

  10. Maria (verified owner)

    I’m getting ready to order another one. I like the strawberry linmeaid flavor than any other flavor. I could feel the difference if I don’t use the pre- workout before doing my workout. I feel sluggish and almost no energy at all. I use 1 1/2 scoop because 1 scoop doesn’t seem to work as good. Once I feel that jittery and itchy feeling on my lips and palms I know that the powder is working. The only downside is the product’s price compared to other pre- workout that has almost the same effect. I wish the company could lower the price a little bit or maybe offer free shipping regardless of how much is being purchased.
