THE PROMISE
Kraken from Sparta Nutrition, is the company’s first take on the Pre Workout world. The company has been around for some time, but as it was focusing mostly on the niche Pro-Hormone category, there’s a good chance you never heard about them.
Living to its hardcore heritage, the spanking new Kraken is targeted right at the heart of the fully dosed pre workout category. Joining the likes of PRE JYM, PRE KAGED, Total War, DVST8, Sidewalk Kraka & more.
THE LABEL FOR DUMMIES
Each tub contains 20 servings of 15g each. 20 servings is the average of this category when you are looking at 15g servings, actually very much in line with Pre Jym, Pre Kaged and the C4 Ultimate. Also from an ingredient profile perspective, you are going to see a lot of the same ingredients.

The Label’s Bottom Line- Kraken definitely brings in a solid mix of ingredients that will get your workout going. There’s no real ‘innovation’ here as far as the actual label, as all of these ingredients have been applied by the competition. We will say this though, as far as pump this is one of the most powerful labels we’ve seen for a pre workout. On the energy & stimulant blend, we’ve seen stronger mixes but the kraken has nothing to be ashamed of.
HANDS ON EXPERIENCE
Taste & Mixability – Sparta Nutrition Kraken Pre Workout is currently available in 2 flavors. We tried the Sour Gummy Bear and thought it was a cool 🙂
Effectiveness – Sparta Nutrition’s Kraken delivers on its promise. The Pumps were insane, the energy & endurance kept us going through the workout & the focus improvement was noticeable. We also tried working out on 1.5 scoops (3/4 serving) and the exprience was just as good!
VALUE FOR MONEY & DEAL HISTORY
The retail price for 20 servings (40 scoops) is $34.99, on the high end of the designer pre workouts out there. Not everyone will need 2 full scoops of Kraken per workout. Blowout deals are rare for this pre-workout, so if you see us post a deal on this monster you should stock up!
FINAL VERDICT
Sparta Nutrition Kraken Pre Workout is joining a very respectable group that is becoming increasingly competitive. It easily wins the ‘over dosed’ pre workout award :). It is so fully loaded that you can easily go with 1/2 a serving (1 scoop) and get a killer workout, which in that case also puts it in a good place pricing wise. The bottom line is – If you train insane, add Kraken to your list of to go Pre-Workouts
