Overview

RAW Nutrition CBUM Thavage is the signature pre-workout of 5x Classic Physique Mr. Olympia Chris Bumstead. The formula features clinical doses across the board: 6g L-citrulline (full clinical dose for nitric oxide), 3.2g beta-alanine (clinical dose for endurance), 3g betaine anhydrous, 1.5g L-tyrosine, 300mg caffeine, and 100mg Dynamine for clean energy without crash. The fully transparent label shows every ingredient and dose — no proprietary blends. With 40 servings per container, the per-serving cost is competitive despite the premium price tag.

Our Verdict

8.6/10 — Very Good

CBUM Thavage delivers what most athlete-endorsed products don't — clinical doses with full transparency. The 6g citrulline and 3.2g beta-alanine are at or above clinical thresholds, and 40 servings makes the per-serving cost reasonable. One of the best-formulated pre-workouts available.
