Where C4 Ripped Fits
C4 Ripped takes the familiar C4 energy profile and adds thermogenic ingredients for training while you cut. At 150mg of caffeine it sits at a moderate stim level, lighter than most high-stim pre-workouts. That makes it a reasonable pick for morning cardio or for anyone who doesn't want a heavy dose. The tradeoff is the proprietary thermogenic blend, which hides the individual amounts.†
CarnoSyn Beta-Alanine 1.6g
Beta-alanine helps raise muscle carnosine, which buffers acid during hard, high-rep work. It has been studied for muscular endurance in efforts lasting one to four minutes. The tingle you may feel is a harmless side effect called paresthesia. CarnoSyn is a patented, branded form of beta-alanine.†
Citrulline Malate 1g
Citrulline is an amino acid the body converts to arginine, which supports nitric oxide production and blood flow to working muscles. At 1g it is a light dose compared with stand-alone pump products. It adds to the pump without being the main event here.†
Thermogenic Blend 1g
The blend pairs L-carnitine tartrate with green coffee seed extract, Capsimax cayenne and CaloriBurn GP grains of paradise. Capsimax is an encapsulated capsicum extract studied for thermogenesis. Grains of paradise has been studied for energy expenditure. Doses for each are not disclosed, so treat this as metabolism support, not a fat-loss promise.†
Frequently Asked Questions
-
How much caffeine is in C4 Ripped?
150mg per scoop from caffeine anhydrous. That is a moderate dose, about one and a half cups of coffee. Count any other caffeine you have that day. Don't combine it with other stimulants.† -
Will C4 Ripped make me lose weight?
No supplement does the work for you. C4 Ripped supports energy and metabolism during training, and results still come from your diet and your training. Think of it as a pre-workout that fits a cutting phase. Pair it with a calorie target you can stick to.† -
Why does it make my skin tingle?
That is the beta-alanine. The tingle is harmless and fades as your body adjusts. Splitting the scoop or taking it with food can soften it. It is not a sign the product is stronger.† -
Are all the doses listed?
Not all of them. Beta-alanine, citrulline malate, the vitamins and caffeine have listed amounts. The thermogenic blend and the velvet bean in the energy blend are proprietary, so individual doses aren't disclosed. If you want full transparency, ask our staff about fully dosed alternatives.†
How to Take Cellucor C4 Ripped
Mix 1 scoop with 6oz of water and drink it 20 to 30 minutes before training. Try half a scoop first to judge your caffeine tolerance, and drink plenty of water during your workout. Don't take it within 6 hours of bed, and don't stack it with other caffeine or stimulant products. For healthy adults 18 and older only; do not use if pregnant or nursing, and see a physician before use if you take medication or have a medical condition.
