High Stim vs. Non-Stim: What’s the Difference?

We’ve been hyped about our 1.1 Pre-workout since day one — it’s clean, powerful, and loaded with the high-stim energy you need to crush heavy lifts or long sessions. But not everyone wants (or needs) that intense stim every single day. That’s why we’re prepping to drop 1.3 Pre-workout, our non-stim formula — and before it lands, we want to break down the difference so you can pick the right tool for the job.

What is “High Stim”? (1.1)

“Stim” is short for stimulant — basically the caffeine and other ingredients that crank up your energy, focus, and drive.

• Loaded with clean, natural caffeine and other energy boosters

• Perfect for early mornings, heavy training, or when you need that extra kick

• Expect tunnel vision focus, more drive, and that “let’s go” feeling

It’s a formula designed to light the fire under you when motivation alone isn’t enough.

What is “Non-Stim”? (1.3)

Non-stim means zero caffeine — but that doesn’t mean it’s weak.

• Focuses on blood flow, pumps, endurance, and recovery without the buzz

• Great for late-night workouts (you won’t be staring at the ceiling at 2 a.m.)

• Ideal for people who are sensitive to caffeine or cycling off stims

• Still gives you that “full” muscle pump and endurance without the jitters

Think of it as the steady, controlled version of a pre — all the performance benefits without the heart-racing edge.

Why We’re Dropping 1.3

We love 1.1, but we know training isn’t one-size-fits-all. Some days you need the stim-powered tunnel vision, other days you just need pump, endurance, and recovery support without caffeine. 1.3 fills that gap.

We’re not replacing 1.1. We’re giving you options. High stim when you want the fire, non-stim when you don’t. Simple.

How to Use Them Together

Some athletes rotate between stim and non-stim to avoid caffeine tolerance. Others keep 1.3 on deck for late lifts, cardio, or stack it with 1.1 for insane pumps + energy.

Bottom line: both formulas are clean, effective, and built for performance — it’s just about choosing the right one for the right day.
