How much caffeine is in Total War pre-workout?
Each 14.7 g scoop of Total War lists 250 mg caffeine anhydrous and 100 mg di-caffeine malate, which together give about 320 mg of caffeine. Half a scoop is roughly 160 mg. That is more than many pre-workouts, so start with half a scoop and do not take more than one scoop a day. It is not suitable for under 18s, or for anyone pregnant or breastfeeding.

The label serving is one 14.7 g scoop mixed with about 150–180 ml of cold water, roughly 30 minutes before training. If you are new to it or sensitive to caffeine, start with half a scoop. Do not take more than one scoop a day, and do not take it within four hours of bed. Each tub holds 30 scoops.
Is Total War good for beginners?
Is Total War good for beginners?
Total War is a high-caffeine formula at about 320 mg per scoop, so it is a big step up if you rarely have caffeine. If you are new to pre-workouts, start with half a scoop on a training day and see how you get on before trying a full scoop. Leave out coffee and energy drinks that day. It is not suitable for under 18s, or for anyone pregnant or breastfeeding.
Does Total War have creatine in it?
Does Total War have creatine in it?
No. Total War lists no creatine. If you want creatine as well, Redcon1 Creatine Monohydrate gives 5 g per serving and, as it is unflavoured, it can go into the same shaker as your Total War. Creatine increases physical performance in successive bursts of short-term, high intensity exercise. The beneficial effect is obtained with a daily intake of 3 g of creatine.
Why does Total War make you tingle?
Why does Total War make you tingle?
The tingling comes from the 3.2 g of beta-alanine in each scoop. Beta-alanine commonly causes a pins-and-needles feeling, known as paraesthesia, usually on the face, neck and hands. It is a well-known effect of beta-alanine rather than a sign that something is wrong with the tub, and it usually wears off within an hour or two.
How long does Total War last?
How long does Total War last?
A tub holds 30 scoops, so it covers 30 training sessions at one scoop, or more if you use half scoops. The caffeine stays in your system for several hours, because the body typically takes around four to six hours to clear half of a caffeine dose. That is why the label says not to take it within four hours of bed.
Why was Total War banned?
Why was Total War banned?
The current Total War is sold in the UK as a food supplement. Searches about a ban go back to the original 2016 formula, which contained DMHA, a stimulant on the WADA prohibited list. Redcon1 dropped it, along with eria jarensis, by its 2018 reformulation, and the label we stock lists neither. If you compete in drug-tested sport, check any pre-workout with your governing body first.
Do all Total War flavours have the same formula?
Do all Total War flavours have the same formula?
Yes. Every Total War flavour lists the same actives and the same caffeine, about 320 mg per scoop, and each tub holds 30 scoops. Tub weights differ slightly, from 420 g to 429 g, because flavourings and colours vary. We stock Blue Raspberry, Grape, Blue Lemonade, Sour Gummy Bear, Strawberry Kiwi, Strawberry Mango and Rainbow Candy.
Is Redcon1 creatine pure creatine monohydrate?
Is Redcon1 creatine pure creatine monohydrate?

Mix one serving into water, juice or a shake once a day. Creatine increases physical performance in successive bursts of short-term, high intensity exercise. The beneficial effect is obtained with a daily intake of 3 g of creatine.

What does REDCON1 mean?
REDCON is short for readiness condition, a US Army scale for how prepared a unit is to move out. REDCON-1 is the top level: full alert, with the unit ready to move immediately. Founder Aaron Singerman chose it as the brand name, which is why "The Highest State of Readiness" appears on Redcon1 tubs and kit, including the drawstring bag we stock.
