Why OneOn Hades?

When looking for a pre workout supplement, many people have a checklist which involves finding a supplement that gives you a 'tingling' feeling (the magical 'pump'), a supplement that enhances your focus and energy levels and one which is safe to use containing no illegal ingredients. Sometimes flavour takes a back seat because many pre workout supplements can lack in this area which is why I am a big fan of PhD Nutrition V-MAX Pump because it tastes very good and gives you that big muscle pump and energy rush to get to the gym and maximise your workout; this is why we include it on our 'Recommended Supplements' part of the homepage. Nonetheless I am always eager to see what else is on the market and having recently tried OneOn's excellent Whey Pro Max I decided to try their best selling pre workout supplement OneOn Hades which is sold in 'Mixed Berry' flavour.

Facts About OneOn Hades

OneOn Hades comes in a 820g tub (suggested 41 servings) and is priced at a very competitive £31.00.
It contains a unique combination of Nitric Oxide and ingredients designed to enhance mental focus and motivation - Caffeine, Glucuronolactone, Taurine and Tyrosine.
Unlike many other pre workout supplements, Hades also includes Citrulline Malate, a compound that significantly increases plasma Arginine levels. This leads to increased Nitric Oxide production which speeds up blood flow to the working muscles by widening blood vessels. So this means an increased amount of amino acids, glucose, oxygen and other key ingredients are supplied to your muscles.
This accelerated muscle tissue uptake of nutrients also results in improved muscular endurance and recovery times allowing for greater gains in muscle size and strength and a big pump whilst training.
Hades includes Creatine Monohydrate and Beta Alanine, two key ingredients to increase size and strength and enable you to lift more in the gym. This means you will not need to take Creatine before your workout because it is already included in Hades. As well as increasing strength, Creatine and Beta Alanine also help delay fatigue and increase muscle growth. Beta Alanine increases the concentration of Carnosine in muscle cells which increases their capacity during high intensity explosive exercise.

How Does OneOn Hades Taste?

Unlike many other pre workout supplements which I have tried previously, OneOn's Hades is extremely easy to digest. When you open the tub you will see that it comes with a large blue rounded scoop. It is recommended that you take one full scoop of Hades in 250-300ml of water. Shake for around 5 seconds and then drink.

Hades mixes with the water extremely easy after shaking for just a few seconds and has a slight mixed berry scent. After shaking simply re-open your shaker and down it. It is extremely easy to drink leaving no bad aftertaste meaning it isn't one of those supplements where you gulp it as quickly as possible to try and hide the taste! You can taste the mixed berries (no surprise given the bright pink appearance once shaken) and after drinking it I guarantee you will feel alive and ready to workout.

Does OneOn Hades Work?

The first time I tried Hades I didn't feel too much for the first 5 minutes but then after this period I definitely felt more awake and alive. I purposely used Hades in the evening after a long day at work to see if it could pick me up and help get me to the gym. It is recommended to take 30 minutes before you workout so you wouldn't expect it to work in minutes but 5-10 minutes later I felt a lot more alive and got a slight tingle on my face and legs. This isn't a bad thing by any means, in fact I take that to be a good sign from a pre workout drink.

I have been taking Hades for a couple of weeks now and have noticed some good strength gains on my lifts, particularly benching and military press. I still feel a slight tingle sensation and a light sweat every time I take it, perfect for that added motivation and strength after a long day to get to the gym and lift heavy weights. This is no surprise given the ingredients; OneOn Hades contains 0.15g of caffeine (150mg) per 20g serving and to put it into perspective, a strong cup of coffee also usually contains 95-200mg of caffeine. Some pre workout supplements contain even more such as Jack3d but this inevitably leads to a massive crash post workout. 150mg is more than enough to raise your mental focus and motivation levels whilst keeping at a safe level of caffeine to prevent any irregular heart activity.

I'm also able to sleep easily during the night even after taking Hades around 8-8:30pm for my evening workouts. I guarantee with something like Jack3d that if you workout in the evening then you will find it difficult to go to sleep until at least 2am (from personal experience...). However if you want to look for a non caffeinated pre workout supplement, I have tried Reflex Nutrition's Caffeine Free Performance Matrix which still gives you a good pump without the caffeine ingredients.

As far as my recent strength gains go, I would put much of this down to taking Hades because of the ingredients such as the Creatine Monohydrate and Beta Alanine which have enabled me to move up the weights (I can now bench press 15kg more than I could 3-4 weeks ago!) Hades is currently my favourite pre workout supplement and is a staple part of my workout routine.

Recommended Use

As we have already touched upon, mix 1 scoop (20g) with 250-300ml of cold water 30 minutes before your workout and on an empty stomach to feel the full effects of Hades. Only take on training days. If you are looking for a supplement to energise you on non training days we recommend OneOn Dextrose which you can blend with your protein shakes.

"Woah, there are some serious levels of awesome ingredients in here. I usually go with just a red bull if i'm not in the mood or a hard day at work, but this stuff almost kicks you to the gym and gives you the most amazing stamina, i have never pushed so hard before, the fat is dropping off and the definition has never been so extreme. bet you cant do an even more hard core version? I took some last saturday night before going out and i would recommend it"

"I've rated this a 3 but not because it doesn't work, maybe too effective. After taking before my gym sesh I went crazy thinking I was possessed, didn't sleep till 2am. Love it, will buy some more, but beware this isn't like other pre workouts or red bull. This is the real thing"
