Cellucor’s M5 Extreme is a pre-workout supplement that has been getting rave reviews from many in the bodybuilding community. Cellucor claims this product will:
- Induce Gorging Muscle Pumps
- Provide Intense Energy and Focus
- Promote Lean Muscle Growth (now contains Creatine Megnapower)
My Review:
M5 Extreme is somewhat like another Cellucor product called N0 Extreme. The difference between the two is that N0 is more of a vasodialator and M5 is more of a complete pre-workout training supplement. Both supplements contain an arginine component and caffine. However, M5 also contains creatine and waxy maize, which N0 does not.
You certainly know the benefits of creatine and why it is the most popular muscle building supplement in the bodybuilding community. M5 contains a special creatine they call Megnapower. The problem is these special forms of creatine do not provide any other additional benefits when compared to regular creatine monohydrate. So you end up just spending more money for a creatine that has no addtional benefits. I would have been very satisfied if they just added regular old monohydrate in the formula and priced the M5 a little less.
The other unique ingredient in M5 that N0 doesn’t contain is waxy maize. Waxy maize acts as a simple sugar just like dextrose would. Simple sugars are great to take pre training because it will give you an immediate source of energy and help you delay the use of muscle glycogen.
As far as M5 Extreme goes, my buddy allowed my to try it for two training sessions. It easily missed with no problems. Also the fruit punch flavor tastes pretty damn good. The vascularity and energy boost were noticeable and quite surprising. Unlike No-xplode that I normally use, M5 gave me energy my entire 1:15 workout (which was exactly what I was looking for).
Just like all other Cellucor products, M5 extreme is more expensive than most pre workout supplements. However, if you have some extra cash to spend on supplements, I would highly suggest this. If you are on a budget, I suggest BSN’s No-Xplode. Try both and see what works best for you. If money was not an option, I would definitely stick with Cellucor’s M5 Extreme.

What Cellucor P6 Extreme Claims To Do:
Boosting testosterone is one of the most critical factor in building muscle. P6 Extreme is one of the more androgenic and anabolic testosterone boosters created. The formula uses a rare and potent blend of testosterone boosting compounds that have been suggested to rapidly boost free testosterone levels.
This supplement may help boost high levels of free testosterone. The end result is a substantial increase in strength, power and lean muscle mass.
It’s frequently used by elite athletes and body builders.
- Elevate Free Testosterone Levels
- Deliver Optimal PCT
- Increase Strength and Lean Mass
- Enhance Athletic Performance
My Review:
There are three instances that you will need this product.
1. As PCT
If you have decided to take a PH (pro-hormone) is this is a good choice to get your natural testosterone back to base line. I will not be discussing proper PCT techniques here. You can’t find that information on various bodybuilding forums.
2. Your Natural Test Levels Are Declining
If you are in your late teens or twenties you will not need P6 Extreme. The reason being if you are in that age group, your natural test levels are at the highest they will ever be. Taking this supplement will give you little benefit if any. However, if you are in your thirties or forties and looking for a way to boost your gains, this is a great choice. Because by the time you get to be that experienced (old), your natural test levels are dropping slightly each year.
3. Your Dieting
This is the scenario in which I used P6 Extreme. I was going through a heavy cut with a large calorie deficit. This caused me to constantly feel lethargic and in turn have pretty crappy training sessions. I buddy recommended this supplement to me and I decided to give it a go. I took a 6 week cycle and started feeling its effects within the beginning of the second week. It gave a good shot of energy in the gym and throughout the day. It also helped me retail more muscle mass during my cut.
The only down side to this product is the price. You get 60 capsules for $70.00 and 120 caps for $120.00. For my cycle I took 2 caps pre-workout and 2 post training. And on off days, just 2. Overall, I believe P6 Extreme is worth it if you fall into one of the 3 categories above.
