Ketone-fueled pre-workout with light caffeine and solid mineral backup

VMI Sports KXR Pre-workout is a low-stim option that puts ketones front and center, totally different from most pre-workouts. It skips the huge caffeine loads, massive pump ingredients, or everything-but-the-kitchen-sink blends. Instead, it packs 7.2 grams of goBHB® beta-hydroxybutyrate salts—BHB is a ketone your body can use for fuel—plus solid magnesium and just 100mg caffeine from Robusta coffee. You get smooth energy for training, electrolyte support, and steady focus without a big stim kick.

The core is the goBHB® mix: 2.4g calcium beta-hydroxybutyrate, 2.4g sodium beta-hydroxybutyrate, and 2.4g magnesium beta-hydroxybutyrate. BHB is the main ketone that floats around in your blood for energy, super handy if you're low on carbs or training fasted. In real life, it means even energy without needing tons of stims to get going. goBHB® is branded from Compound Solutions, so it's a quality ketone source, not some cheap knockoff.

Magnesium stands out too. You get 295mg total from magnesium beta-hydroxybutyrate and TRAACS® magnesium bisglycinate chelate—that's close to the 310-420mg daily range you see in studies. It's a good chunk for a pre-workout. Magnesium helps over 300 enzyme reactions, keeps ATP stable—that's your cell's energy currency—supports nerves and muscles, and is key for making energy. They use Albion’s TRAACS® chelated form, which is easier on your stomach and absorbs better than rougher types.

Chromium is in at 200mcg as TRAACS® chromium nicotinate glycinate chelate, right at the low end of the 200-1000mcg studied range. Chromium boosts insulin signals through something called chromodulin, helping with

VMI KXR Pre-Workout by VMI Sports contains 35mg Niacin (Vitamin B3), a standard dose for training performance and pump.

Key Highlights

  • 7,200mg goBHB® ketone salts—this is what makes the formula stand out, split as calcium, sodium, and magnesium beta-hydroxybutyrate. It skips heavy stims and uses ketones for steadier energy, killer for fasted or low-carb days.
  • 100mg caffeine from Robusta coffee—that's low for a pre-workout. Studies show caffeine works best at 200-400mg or 3-6 mg/kg, so this isn't maxed out; it's a chill dose for smooth alertness you can handle every day.
  • 295mg magnesium total—a solid amount that's almost at the 310-420mg daily range from studies. Magnesium keeps ATP steady and helps nerves and muscles work right, making it a key player for performance here.
  • TRAACS® magnesium bisglycinate chelate—Albion’s chelated version is a smart upgrade over basic minerals. Chelation means better absorption and less stomach issues, great for something you use often.
  • 200mcg chromium as TRAACS® chromium nicotinate glycinate chelate—hits the start of the researched range. Chromium helps with insulin and glucose control, which fits nice with the ketone energy angle.
  • Fully open label—every ingredient and dose is right there. In a world of hidden blends, this lets you check it against real research yourself.
  • 300mg L-Tyrosine—not a huge dose for stress and performance, but it helps in this low-stim setup. Tyrosine builds dopamine and norepinephrine, so it boosts focus with the caffeine.
  • 50mg Alpha-GPC—below the usual doses for power or brain boosts, so we're real about it. It still fits the focus vibe, but ketones, minerals, and light stims are the stars.

Who Is This For?

  • Low-carb and keto folks wanting a pre that matches their diet, not fights it. 7.2g goBHB® ketones give a unique energy feel, with minerals boosting readiness.
  • Early morning lifters avoiding 300-400mg caffeine before the day. 100mg gets you alert, while magnesium and BHB make it feel more complete than coffee.
  • Intermediate gym users after a clear-label, easy pre for daily use. No hidden blends, just open doses with light stims you can hit repeat on.
  • Athletes who hate harsh stims but want real pre support. Low caffeine leans on goBHB®, magnesium, and light nootropics from L-Tyrosine and Alpha-GPC for smoothness.
  • Fasted trainers who start sessions feeling off. Ketones plus sodium, calcium, magnesium help you feel geared up without a big meal.
  • Busy pros hitting the gym after tough days, needing calm over hype. Caffeine and tyrosine support focus under pressure, without jitters for evenings.

How to Use

Mix 1 scoop with 10-14 ounces cold water and down it 20-30 minutes pre-train. That's the spot for caffeine and focus to kick before warm-ups turn serious. If you're super sensitive to stims, try half a scoop first—even though it's low by pre standards. Shaker's best 'cause ketone salts mix better with shaking. Empty stomach speeds it up, popular for fasted folks, but light food's okay if your gut's picky. Don't stack with other caffeine bombs unless you're aiming higher and know your limits. Goes well with plain creatine, intra hydration, or a separate pump if you need more nitric oxide. No need to cycle the formula, but ease off caffeine sometimes if you're a regular pre user—tolerance builds. Keep it sealed, cool, and dry; mineral powders clump easy if wet.

What to Expect

Minutes 0-10: you sip it and it feels lighter than heavy pres—no big stim punch coming. Minutes 10-20: 100mg caffeine eases in with clean alertness, not shakes, as ketones and minerals build that 'ready' vibe. Minutes 20-40: prime time—focus up, energy steady, workout flows without overload. Minutes 40-90: smoother ride than high-stims, no huge drop 'cause you're not peaking hard. Days 1-7: you notice the easy energy and consistency right away, not big changes over time. Weeks 2-4: shines in routine use, especially swapping from rough pres that mess with sleep or tolerance.

Key Ingredients

  • Caffeine from Robusta Coffee — Light stimulant lift without high-stim fallout
  • Niacin — Small B-vitamin inclusion tied to chromium complex

Frequently Asked Questions

How much caffeine is in VMI Sports KXR Pre-workout?

Each 1-scoop serving provides 100mg caffeine from Robusta coffee. That is low by pre-workout standards, where many formulas land between 250mg and 400mg, so KXR is designed for smoother energy rather than a massive stimulant hit.

What makes this formula different from a typical pre-workout?

The biggest difference is the 7.2g goBHB® ketone salt complex. Most pre-workouts build around caffeine, citrulline, and beta-alanine; KXR instead leans on exogenous ketones, minerals, and light stimulation for a steadier training experience.

Is KXR Pre-workout good for keto or low-carb training?

Yes, that is one of the clearest use cases for this formula. The goBHB® complex supplies beta-hydroxybutyrate directly, which makes more sense for low-carb, ketogenic, or fasted users than a standard stim-only pre-workout.

Does KXR have a fully transparent label?

Yes. There are no proprietary blends in the verified formula, so every active ingredient and dose is listed openly on the label.

Will this give me a big pump?

Not in the way a citrulline- or nitrate-based pump formula would. KXR is not built around nitric oxide ingredients, so its strengths are smoother energy, mineral support, and ketone-based fueling rather than maximal vascularity.

Is the L-Tyrosine dose clinically strong?

No, not by published stress-performance standards. Research on L-Tyrosine is typically much higher, around 100-150mg per kilogram of bodyweight, so 300mg is best viewed as a supportive addition rather than a headline nootropic dose.

What do the TRAACS® minerals do in this formula?

TRAACS® is Albion’s chelated mineral technology. In KXR, the magnesium and chromium chelates improve the quality of the mineral portion of the formula, supporting absorption and tolerability compared with cheaper generic forms.

Can I stack KXR with creatine?

Yes, and that is one of the smartest ways to upgrade the formula. KXR does not provide creatine, so adding 3-5g of creatine monohydrate daily gives you direct phosphocreatine support for strength and repeated high-intensity output.

Can I use this in the evening?

For many users, yes, because 100mg caffeine is modest. That said, if you are highly caffeine-sensitive or train close to bedtime, even this dose can still affect sleep.

Is Alpha-GPC meaningfully dosed here?

It is included at 50mg, which is below the amounts commonly used for acute cognitive or power-output effects. It fits the focus theme of the formula, but it is not one of the primary performance drivers.

For soft, sensually awesome sheets- LOOK no more!
Color: 15 - Sage Green, Size: Full
Would give 10 stars if possible! (And this is a nonpaid for review!) When I received the sheets, instantly I knew that I had the right ones, had bought a down comforter close in color as well.. these sheets? The material is strong yet, soft and warm. So so especially soft, and when I make up the bed, ahhh! plus the corners on the fitted, such a cinch to pull over the mattress, even with a topper on the bed! Feels almost spa-like <3 Very comfy, so far in the winter and in 85 degree heat! Soft and easy peasy to care for, too. Washing is a breeze, dry and fold. So far the only thing I can smell on these sheets is my wonderful detergent! Will purchase again. And possibly, again! Thank you!!

Soft luxury on a modest price
Color: 01 - White, Size: King
These sheets are truly luxurious. They are thin, but feel wonderful against your skin. The sheets are roomy enough to latch onto the corners without having to lift the mattress and stretch. The thread count provides incredible softness against your skin. The pillowcases are roomy enough for your pillow so that you do not have to feel like you’re stuffing sausages.

Honest Company making things right!
Color: 02 - Antique White, Size: California King, Color: 02 - Antique White, Size: California King
Love how this Californai sheet set feels and they fit very nicely on my bed. They are beautiful although I am unhappy with the 2 small holes I found in the fitted sheet after pulling them out of the packaging. I am past the return as I was not able to use them on my bed because I was moving and my bed was in storage. This is very disappointing for such a beautiful sheet set. UPDATE- I have reached out to the company and they were very kind and helpful. I stated the situation along with pictures and the order # and the company quickly responded with a new fitted sheet. Such a delight to find an honest company wanting to do the right thing. I Will order from this company again.

Very thin. You get what you pay for.
Color: 01 - White, Size: Queen
You get what you pay for. I first noticed the softness which was great. The quality is very thin. They are cool which is great. I have not washed them yet. I would suggest washing them on cool and gentle by themselves. And because they are so thin I would fluff dry for an hour if you have that setting. The two things that damages clothes and sheets, etc. are if you have an agitator in your washer, those ruin clothes and the heat you choose for the fabric you’re drying I always wash my clothes on cold. I do not have an agitator anymore and on delicate and thin fabrics, I use fluff dry. It is cool, but it will dry, especially if it is thin and I’ve had to dry my fine delicates a little bit longer on fluff that way they don’t shrink because the shrinking comes in from the heat from the dryer so keep that in mind another good thing to remember if you got white sheets like I did is that when you use your detergent add a little bit of borax or laundry booster and they will help get them clean and sparkly white. I am on the fence about whether I would recommend this or not if you’re tight on money and you take good care of them I would recommend that you get them. I’m a linen freak and I buy mostly expensive sheets and I thought I would try this out so that’s where I’m at.

Astonishing, Fun, Entertaining, Fantastic
Format: Kindle
I consider The Martian my favorite fictional novel of the last 15-20 years. The movie was incredible in that they actually followed the book closer than 99% of other films based on books. It remains my favorite movie of the last 15 years or so as well. I don't know anyone (personally) that loves either of them as much as I do. With that said, I was REALLY looking forward to Artemis. It was good...but, it was certainly not in the same caliber as The Martian was (at least not for me). I enjoyed it a lot, however and appreciated how author Andy Weir chose to go in a completely different direction and not just rehash another similar story, which I am certain would have been great as well. As a result, I was cautious regarding Project Hail Mary. It sounded a little too close to The Martian, but yet, also different in that the circumstances simply could not be more opposite and the stakes so much higher. I'm trying to figure out the best way to summarize without giving too much away from this utterly compelling novel. As I read several reviews, I noticed a recurring theme: SCIENCE. Lots and LOTS of science. Holy cow, they were right. Many years ago I read Apollo 13 and Jim Lovell and his co-writer, try as they might, simply could not dumb down Orbital Mechanics anywhere near enough for me to have even a minor clue as to what they were attempting to say...I just skipped 90% of it and hoped that the sentences written afterwards, would help to make sense of what I had just skimmed over. I'm a lot of things, but a math wizard is definitely not one of them. Michael Crichton (Jurassic Park) had an amazing talent for dumbing-down the science of what he was trying to explain in ways that genuinely made sense (most of the time). Not everyone has this talent, and I would say Andy Weir falls squarely in between. He's certainly better than Jim Lovell, but not quite as good as Crichton. But then again, outside of a science textbook, I haven't really read anything with quite as MUCH science as Project Hail Mary. So maybe he's just as good, but he just puts more science into his books than Crichton, maybe that's it...? Either way, be prepared for a lot of astonishingly interesting science within the pages of this novel...and I DO mean a LOT. I don't say this to make you wary or steer you away...on the contrary, Andy Weir has a special talent for making hard science truly entertaining. The book opens with an absolutely amazing and frightening premise: an astronaut awakes from an induced coma to find the only other two people on board have died at some point along their journey...but it gets worse. He has no idea who he is, or why he's on the ship, and oh yeah, they look to be a long way from home. A really, REALLY long way from home. In fact, the sun he sees isn't actually OUR sun at all. He's managed to leave our solar system entirely. And he has no idea why. ((Minor Spoilers)) The book goes through some clever flash-backs, which set the stage for why the mission happens, and slowly, carefully explains how they managed to get so far away from earth in such a short amount of time. Basically, earth's sun seems to be dying. At the rate of decay, we have maybe 19 years left before the gradual cooling has catastrophic consequences resulting in the death of billions (best guess). Why the sun is dimming is quite the conundrum in the first place. Turns out it really isn't dying, it's being killed by an outside source...which turns out to be easily the greatest find in history. It's alien life, and they are using the sun for food, essentially. It's alien life, but not intelligent life. But still, wow! ALIENS, right??? After this monumental discovery, and some tremendous research done by the most improbable scientist, the investigation into what is happening and why and what to do about it expands exponentially to other nations in order to pool all the resources possible to hopefully save the sun, and by extension, the human race as well. They learn. A LOT. A plan is put together, and with the help of the newly discovered microscopic alien life, which can also double as a power source (along with a few other nifty surprises), they begin to create one last, Hail Mary that could very well be the last chance we might have to save earth. It's audacious. It's dangerous, and it is absolutely critical that it succeed. As our astronaut's memory slowly unravels, so does his identity: Ryland Grace. He's a teacher on earth. Just a science teacher. Not even a college professor. He's amazingly smart, though. But he's no astronaut...and certainly not one who would volunteer to go on a one-way mission to another solar system to "try" and save humanity. Yet here he is. Alone. light years from earth, trying to solve the biggest riddle in all of human history. Ryland accepts his situation, such as it is, with relative indifference (for the most part). It doesn't matter HOW he got here. He's here now and he may as well use that time to be as productive as possible, right? Along the way, he unravels even more information regarding the microscopic alien life which is slowly dimming our sun during some additional flashbacks. The aliens, dubbed, "Astrophage" are quite the galactic plague as it turns out. Stars all over the galaxy are also losing their light, all due to the little buggers. All that is, except one particular star named, Tau Ceti. Now why would that one star be unaffected by Astrophage, when every single star around it has been affected to some degree. The plan is to go there and figure it out and send the information back, hopefully in time to save the sun before the damage to earth is beyond repair. There is an incredible amount of stuff going on. The story switches from Tau Ceti to flashbacks of how the whole mission was planned and implemented (which is VERY entertaining, especially Director Stratt, who may actually be my favorite character in the entire novel). Weir is becoming quite adept at building tension, and abruptly switching the story from Tau Ceti back to earth and building more of the backstory then switching back to Tau Ceti. Keeping it all in check and most importantly, interesting all while mixing in a healthy dose of science, which I am to understand is pretty much all genuine, is quite the juggling act. I have long known science can be astronomically entertaining (see what I did there?) when done right...but unfortunately very few people in a position to teach science actually know the best way to create that interest in others. I can say without reservation, Andy Weir definitely knows how to do it...at least in written form. There is so much I want to say more regarding this truly phenomenal story, but I simply cannot without ruining a lot of the fun and surprises revealed along the way...and it is killing me to keep it locked in. Though I labeled a spoiler warning earlier, I don't think it gave away any more than what the author himself has revealed in interviews he has done regarding the book, and what you can glean from reading the summary here and just a couple other reviews. Tying all of that science together is truly astonishing to me. The creativity to put it into a novel that is remarkably exciting to read is nothing more than incredible talent. Kudo's to Andy Weir for not just hitting a home run, Project Hail Mary is a Grand Slam all the way. I truly did not want this story to end. By the way, I enjoyed the ending quite a bit. I don't know if everyone will. But it was fine for me. I think the ending screams "sequel" at some point too. A lot was left open-ended (IMO) and I wouldn't mind reading a follow-up to this. It doesn't HAVE to happen, but there are a lot of ways where the story could go if Andy chose to do it. Just sayin'. Just run out and buy this book.
