Here's the listing:
INTERNATIONAL PROTEIN WAR HAMMER
War Hammer is International Protein's high-stimulant pre-workout — built for experienced users who want a serious caffeine hit paired with a supporting cast of ingredients designed to smooth out the experience and extend the focus window. At 350mg of Caffeine Anhydrous per serve, this sits firmly in the high-stim category and should be approached accordingly.
What makes War Hammer more considered than a basic high-caffeine formula is the deliberate inclusion of ingredients to moderate and complement that stimulant load. Theanine at 200mg is the key here — the well-established pairing of L-Theanine with caffeine is one of the most researched combinations in sports nutrition, consistently shown to reduce caffeine-associated jitteriness and anxiety while preserving and in some cases enhancing the energy and focus response. The result is a harder-hitting pre-workout that still delivers controlled, usable energy rather than an unpleasant overstimulated feeling.
The formula:
Caffeine Anhydrous (350mg) drives the primary stimulant effect — fast-acting CNS stimulation, thermogenesis, and mental alertness. At this dose it's firmly in the experienced-user range.
Taurine (2,000mg) at a clinical dose works alongside caffeine rather than against it. Taurine supports cellular hydration, muscle function, and cardiovascular efficiency, and also has a mild modulating effect on caffeine's overstimulation potential, making it a smart pairing at this caffeine level.
Green Tea Extract — Theanine (200mg) provides the theanine content that smooths the caffeine response, promoting a state of alert calm that extends the usable focus window without blunting the energy effect.
English Walnut Fruit Extract (200mg) — a natural source of synephrine-related compounds and higenamine precursors that contribute additional adrenergic stimulation and thermogenic output alongside the caffeine.
Bitter Orange Extract (60mg) is standardised for p-synephrine, a well-researched adrenergic compound that supports fat mobilisation, metabolic rate, and physical performance — adding a thermogenic dimension to the formula.
Inositol (100mg) supports neurotransmitter signalling pathways involved in mood and cognitive function, contributing a subtle nootropic dimension to the focus profile.
Vitamin B3 as Niacin (20mg) supports cellular energy metabolism as a cofactor in NAD production — relevant during high-intensity output where cellular energy demand is elevated. Note: Niacin at this dose may cause a mild, harmless skin flushing sensation in some users.
