Pump 3G Zero 375g Caffeine-Free

Yes. Pump 3G Zero by Applied Nutrition relies on a stimulant-free formula based on NO (nitric oxide) precursors: L-Citrulline Malate at clinical doses (≥6 g), the most effective oral NO precursor thanks to its conversion into arginine in the kidneys, more potent than direct oral arginine. The vasodilatory pump effect is independent of any sympathetic nervous system stimulation — it acts directly on muscle arterioles via endothelial NO-synthase. Applied Nutrition is a British brand (Applied Nutrition, Leeds), Informed Sport certified, recognized across Europe for the quality and transparency of its formulations.

The sole difference is the presence or absence of caffeine. Pump 3G Zero is the stimulant-free version, focused on pure vascular congestion (citrulline, glycerol, possibly beta-alanine). Pump 3G Original contains caffeine to add energetic stimulation to the pump. The choice depends on training time (evening = Zero, morning/daytime = Original or another caffeinated pre-workout), your sensitivity to stimulants, and your goal. Pump 3G Zero is also ideal for stimulant cyclers taking a caffeine break but wanting to maintain pump sensations.

Yes, and this is a popular advanced strategy. Pump 3G Zero (pump only, stimulant-free) + your preferred caffeinated pre-workout (HYDE Nightmare, 5150, ABE Ultimate) = maximum coverage of vascular pump AND energetic stimulation, with full control over caffeine doses. This modular approach is superior to all-in-one pre-workouts because you can independently adjust pump and stimulation according to the day, session, and your tolerance. Check that your caffeinated pre-workout does not already contain a high dose of citrulline to avoid double-dosing.

Yes, and this is one of its major advantages. The complete absence of caffeine, theobromine, or other stimulants in Pump 3G Zero makes it the ideal pre-workout for evening sessions after 6 PM, for people sensitive to caffeine, for pregnant or breastfeeding women (subject to medical advice), and for stimulant cyclers. You get pump and muscle congestion sensations without any effect on falling asleep or sleep quality — a crucial factor for overnight recovery and muscle growth.

Applied Nutrition is a brand that is Informed Sport certified for its main products. Check that the specific batch of Pump 3G Zero carries the Informed Sport logo on the packaging — this certification means each batch is tested by an independent accredited laboratory (LGC) for the absence of all WADA-banned substances. The declared active ingredients (citrulline, beta-alanine) are not on the WADA list. For competitive athletes in natural bodybuilding, athletics, or swimming, Applied Nutrition Informed Sport is one of the safest brands available on Force Addict Pro.

At a dose of 12.5 g per serving (Applied Nutrition's standard dose), 375 g represents 30 servings, or roughly 6-8 weeks of use at 4-5 sessions per week. Applied Nutrition is a premium brand whose prices reflect the quality of raw materials (quality citrulline malate, pure beta-alanine at clinical doses) and Informed Sport certification. For athletes using Pump 3G Zero daily, the cost-effectiveness is competitive given the density of active ingredients — compare the cost per gram of pure citrulline with alternatives.
