Why I Keep Coming Back to CrossTheLimits.co.uk
I’ve placed over 30 orders—and only one was delayed. Even then, the team immediately sent a replacement. They were very responsive and professional throughout. Trustpilot reviews echo this reliability: one customer said they “only ever had 1 problem…and they went above and beyond to sort it” (Trustpilot).
I have no affiliation with crossthelimits by the way. I’ve always paid full price etc so no incentive or conflict of interest – just FYI
Quick Review: Dexter Pre‑Workout Range
I love the Halloween and Explosion flavours. They are both extremely strong. You feel energy, focus, and big muscle pumps. But they are powerful. Try a small test dose first, like ¼ to ½ scoop. Wait 20–30 min before training.
Ingredients and Benefits
Citrulline Malate
- Helps boost nitric oxide and improves blood flow.
- May reduce muscle soreness and perceived effort after workouts.
Study: A meta‑analysis found acute ~8 g doses increased endurance and strength.(MDPI)
Beta‑Alanine
- Raises muscle carnosine levels. That buffers lactic acid.
- Helps delay fatigue during efforts lasting ~1–4 minutes.
- Improves 10 km running times and reduce blood lactate.(PubMed, Frontiers)
Important: Best results after 4–6 g daily for 2–4+ weeks.(BioMed Central, Gatorade Sports Science Institute)
Agmatine Sulfate
- May amplify pump effects when paired with citrulline. Boosts vascularity.
Alpha‑GPC
- Supports focus and mind‑muscle connection. Increases motivation PubMed study
Caffeine & Other Stimulants (DMHA, Eria, Synephrine…)
- Provide fast and sustained energy.
- Sharpen cognition and reduce perceived exertion.

How I Use It
Start with a test dose. Wait 20–30 minutes. Don’t train too late in the day. Stay hydrated. Stick to the recommended dose. These are not beginner formulas.
Final Verdict
CrossTheLimits.co.uk delivers quality and service. Their Dexter Halloween and Dexter Explosion are both top-tier pre‑workouts. Explosion is slightly stronger and fuller in formula. Halloween is simpler, but still packs a wallop.
Use small test doses. Ramp up gradually. These products work hard—but only if you use them smartly.
Highly recommend both the site and the range.
I also use a microdose in capsules – I make my own with empty 000 capsules. Just be aware it’s strong and I personally never use a full dosage.
You can read more about DMHA in this scientific paper – don’t use if you have heart issues or high blood pressure.
This is not a ‘healthy nutrition’ type of supplement! I have ADD and there is a shortage of medication, so I’m currently making do with meditation etc and make-shift nootropics including microdosing pre-workouts – beta alanine etc really helps with inflammation too.
More info on some of the main benefits of beta alanine here. It’s great for fibromyalgia etc.
