Pre-workouts without caffeine or beta-alanine
THE SHORT ANSWER
6 pre-workouts meet this list's rule, out of 76 pre-workouts with a complete label on file in the FormulaSignal Record. By the stated rule, ProSupps Dr. JEKYLL Nightmare ranks first: 2 of its 2 main actives sit inside researched doses at $1.33 a serving.
Read from the labels on file, the newest observed October 4, 2026. No brand pays to appear, and the order comes from the rule printed below.
The rule
What qualifies, and how it is ordered.
Qualifies: The complete label declares no caffeine, no other stimulant the Record recognizes, and no beta-alanine in any form.
Order: Ranked by the share of main active ingredients declared at an amount inside the range published research used, then by lower cost per serving. The same rule FormulaSignal uses for “best pre-workout”. It compares numbers on a label, not how well a product works.

Not counted: 3 normalized pre-workouts whose label is not complete, because an absence on a partial label is not evidence; 111 pre-workouts in the Record whose label has not been normalized yet; 10 adjacent amino, EAA and thermogenic products, which are ranked on their own names and never as pre-workouts; 244 products in other categories. A product missing from this list may still qualify once its label is read.
Method
How this page was made.
What FormulaSignal did
- Counted every one of the 76 pre-workouts with a complete label on file and tested each against one rule: the complete label declares no caffeine, no other stimulant the Record recognizes, and no beta-alanine in any form.
- Left out 3 normalized pre-workouts whose label is not complete, because an absence on a partial label is not evidence.
- Ordered the 6 that qualify by the rule printed above, the same rule for every product.
- Took every figure from each product's dated Record; the labels read here were observed between August 3, 2026 and October 4, 2026. Each Record links the source for every figure.
What it did not do
- No taste test and no lab test. Every figure is what a label or a brand's own page declares, not what was measured in a tub.
- No score and no winner. Differences are measured and shown; nothing is rated.
- No payment and no preview. No brand paid to appear, and none saw this page before it was published.
- No health advice. Whether an ingredient or an amount suits you is a question for a clinician.
Questions
Common questions
Which pre-workouts have no caffeine and no beta-alanine?
6 pre-workouts meet this list's rule, out of 76 pre-workouts with a complete label on file in the FormulaSignal Record. By the stated rule, ProSupps Dr. JEKYLL Nightmare ranks first: 2 of its 2 main actives sit inside researched doses at $1.33 a serving. The full list is above, with a link to each product's dated Record.
Is there a pre-workout with no caffeine and no tingle?
FormulaSignal cannot say how a product will feel. These 6 complete labels declare no stimulant and no beta-alanine, the ingredient most often associated with tingling.
How is this list ranked?
Ranked by the share of main active ingredients declared at an amount inside the range published research used, then by lower cost per serving. The same rule FormulaSignal uses for “best pre-workout”. It compares numbers on a label, not how well a product works.
Why isn't my pre-workout on this list?
Either its label does not meet the rule, or the Record has not read it completely yet. This list excludes 3 normalized pre-workouts whose label is not complete, because an absence on a partial label is not evidence; 111 pre-workouts in the Record whose label has not been normalized yet; 10 adjacent amino, EAA and thermogenic products, which are ranked on their own names and never as pre-workouts; 244 products in other categories. You can request any product free from your Locker.
Does any brand pay to be ranked?
No. FormulaSignal takes no payment for a conclusion, a ranking or a placement. Product pages link to the product's Amazon listing, where FormulaSignal earns from qualifying purchases, but this list carries no such link and nothing that ranks it can read one: the order comes from the rule above and the labels on file.
