"F**K IT, CAN'T I JUST MAKE MY OWN?"
In 10 years of training myself and coaching others, I've seen every pre-workout on the Aussie market (and more than a few from overseas). I've watched my mates and clients try every formula you could imagine, and I always preach the same story:
"You don't just need an energy boost. If you want to take training seriously you wanna lift heavier, go for longer, think faster, and look swole doing it."
Since I know what ingredients are hype and what really works, I used to tell anyone who wanted to know, and they'd go experiment with their own stacks. Pre's for energy. Nitric Oxide for pump. Creatine for strength. Amino's for focus.
Sure, they hit on some good combos. But they were spending hundreds of bucks and having to neck heaps of powder and pills before training sessions. It annoyed me to see my mates being fleeced.
Being in the fitness industry for a decade, I had some pretty good contacts. So one day I decided F**k it, I'm gonna make my own formula and pack all my favourite supps into one scoop.

"I HATE THAT FEELING..."
When I set out to create my own pre-workout I had 2 things in mind.
1. NO CRASH
2. NO FILLERS
Regular pre's were way too Caffeine and Beta-alanine heavy, and I hated the feeling. Sure, I'd feel like running through a wall at the beginning of my session. But by the last few sets I'd be super lethargic, and my face would be tingling so bad it felt like my skin was trying to crawl off.
Over the years my tolerance to pre's increased so much that I’d have to take 2 or even 3 scoopsjust to feel a buzz and get myself through leg day...but I was just stealing energy from myself. I'd crash so hard after that it was impossible to get anything done the rest of the day.
My mates and clients all felt the same, so I knew that a lower-stim formula was the way to go. And in place of the ingredients I'd take out, I promised myself to pack in only things that would boost strength, pump, and focus.

"THIS STUFF'S CRAZY..."
So I created a formula, with lower Caffeine & Beta-alanine than anything else on the market, instead filling my pre with killer ingredients for smooth energy, focus and strength. I'd read hundreds of scientific studies and tested them individually on myself so i knew what ingredients really worked and what was just marketing and hype.
For me that meant Creatine, Arginine AKG, Vitamins, and Amino Acids were on the list.
I was so pumped submitting the sample order. I'd done it. My own supplement. 4 supps in 1 as well! No more expensive stacks of pills & powders just to have a good session.
When it arrived, I was blown away. I knew it had everything when I told the factory to create it, but even still I was shocked that I could just chug one shaker of pre and slip into the zone for hours, full of energy, pumped as hell, and able to lift like a beast.
This stuff's crazy, I thought to myself. I couldn't wait to tell everyone...

"BRO THIS TASTES LIKE S**T"
Hearing that was like prime Tyson smashing me with a body shot. Instead the blow was delivered by Arkash, my cousin, after trying Magic Myth V1 for the first time.
"No way bro, I tried it a bunch of times. It's perfect" I protested. We couldn't agree, so I asked my other cousins to taste it and tell me how great it was.
Nope. I'm Sri Lankan (including the stereotypical huge family), so it didn't take my 10 cousins long to put me in my place. "Liquid puke" was one comment. Safe to say I got the point after that.
It turns out I was so hyped at actually making my own pre that I lost my sense of taste. I could have drank a shaker full of piss and told you it was Coke as long as my name was on the tub.
Now it was back to the drawing board...

PUTTING IT ALL TOGETHER
As much it that sucked to hear, the honest takedown of Magic Myth V1 was the best thing that could've ever happened. Now it was back to the drawing board, but with a revised master plan:
1. NO CRASH
2. NO FILLERS
3. MOUTHWATERING TASTE
I'm a perfectionist by nature, and having nailed what I thought was the most balanced pre-workoutI'd ever taken, I was hell bent on the taste living up to the performance.
The next few weeks were spent testing dozens of flavour combinations, trying to strike that perfect balance of taste, after-taste, and mix-ability. I barely slept at all during this time, fuelled by the desire to nail the flavour and a continuous stream of caffeine!
Finally, we settled on the two flavours you see today. Fruit Punch and Honeydew Watermelon. And Magic Myth© was born.
