Read this part first. 5150 Gladiator is the most powerful pre-workout in the 5% lineup and is built specifically for experienced stimulant users. It runs the same Stim-Crazy caffeine complex as regular 5150, over 400mg of caffeine from eight sources, plus alpha yohimbine, theobromine, yerba mate, and cocoa alkaloid extract. Where Gladiator separates from the original is everything around the stimulants: L-Citrulline doubled to 8 grams, Alpha-GPC pushed to 600mg, and HydroPrime Glycerol, Agmatine Sulfate, and Pink Himalayan Salt added for hyper-hydration and pumps. If you already run 5150 and want more pump and more focus at the same stimulant level, this is the step up. If you are new to high-stim pre-workouts, start somewhere else.†

What Changed From Regular 5150
The energy stayed roughly the same. Everything else went up. Citrulline doubled from 4g to 8g. Alpha-GPC jumped to 600mg, a substantially better dose than the original carried. HydroPrime Glycerol, Agmatine Sulfate, and Pink Himalayan Salt were added for hyper-hydration and fuller pumps. The result is the same stim feel 5150 is known for, with a much stronger pump and nootropic side underneath it.†
8 Grams of Citrulline
Eight grams of L-Citrulline is a top-of-range pump dose. Citrulline drives nitric oxide production, opening blood vessels for better circulation, fuller pumps, and improved delivery of oxygen and nutrients to working muscle. Paired with glycerol and agmatine, you get vascular pump and cellular hydration working at the same time.†
The Alpha Yohimbine Factor
Alpha yohimbine is a potent alpha-2 adrenergic antagonist that sharpens the overall stimulant intensity well beyond what caffeine alone produces. Combined with over 400mg of caffeine across eight sources, this is a genuinely aggressive adrenergic load. It is the single biggest reason Gladiator is not a beginner product and why the one-scoop ceiling matters.†
