Let’s be honest for a second. Pre-workout is a love-hate relationship. You love what it does for you—energy, focus, that extra oomph when your body’s saying “nope.” But you hate… well, just about everything else. The dusty scoops, the sticky shaker bottles that mysteriously smell like 2016, the “did I just chug sunscreen?” aftertaste, and that telltale bloated feeling that kicks in halfway through your warmup. But what if we told you there’s now a way to get that same lift—without the lift of your stomach contents?
The Game-Changing Pre-Workout Gummy
Meet Bursts: the pre-workout gummy that’s flipping the supplement game on its head. Imagine a world where you don’t need a shaker or a sink to consume your pre-workout—just a couple of gummies and you’re good to go. That’s what Robert Pierce and Rowan Gerber, two college guys, achieved with Bursts. This isn’t just another supplement; this is convenience, simplicity, and effectiveness wrapped up in a fun little gummy.
But before we get ahead of ourselves, let’s rewind a bit. This wasn’t a project born in a fancy lab with multimillion-dollar equipment. This started in a college dorm room. Yes, you read that right—gelatin, raw ingredients, and silicone molds – in a dorm room.
Think Breaking Bad but with fewer explosions and more creatine.
The Brain Behind the Bursts: Robert and Rowan
Meet Robert Pierce and Rowan Gerber, two fitness-loving students who met at the University of Kansas. Both were passionate about staying active, motivated, and navigating the time-crunched chaos of college life without losing their minds or missing leg day.
Robert, the self-proclaimed pre-workout loyalist, had a routine. Every day, like clockwork, he’d scoop, shake, and sip his way through his pre-workout. But the process? Exhausting. Not physically—mentally. It was messy, time-consuming, and surprisingly annoying for something that was supposed to give him more energy. One day, as he stood mid-shake, he had a lightbulb moment.
The Eureka Moment: What If Pre-Workout Was a Gummy?
“Why hasn’t anyone made this easier?” he thought.
As fate would have it, his buddy Rowan was thinking the same thing. During a casual conversation, the magic words were spoken: “What if pre-workout was a gummy?” Cue dramatic pause. This dear reader, was the birth of Power Crown Labs and their flagship product: Bursts.
The idea was simple but revolutionary: combine all the benefits of a pre-workout supplement with the convenience of a gummy. This idea was met with excitement and determination. Robert and Rowan knew they were onto something. But the road ahead would be anything but smooth.
College Kitchens and Sticky Mistakes: The Early Days
Let’s be realistic: launching a supplement company from a college dorm room isn’t exactly the norm. But Robert and Rowan weren’t interested in doing things the usual way. They didn’t have fancy labs or big budgets—they had a microwave, a dream, and a lot of trial and error.
The early batches were – let’s say experimental batches. Some melted. Some fused into a terrifying blob. Some tasted like what you might imagine gym socks marinated in energy drinks would taste like. But there was a fire behind the failure. Each disaster brought them closer to their goal. They were determined to get this right.
But as every entrepreneur knows, failure is just a step toward success. And eventually, their hard work paid off. They knew it was time to call in the pros. Robert and Rowan teamed up with a manufacturer and began fine-tuning their recipe like mad scientists with protein powder. Over 20 bench-top trials later—yes, twenty—they cracked the code. The result?
Small Gummies, Big Energy
Bursts are the answer to everything wrong with traditional pre-workout supplements. Three little gummies pack a punch of clean energy, focus, hydration, and endurance. No shaker. No sink. No mess. Just grab, chew, and go.
The Ingredients That Make Bursts Work
Here’s the kicker: these aren’t just glorified sugar bears with a sprinkle of caffeine. The formulation is legit. Bursts are packed with performance-boosting ingredients, all in effective doses, without turning the gummy into a brick or making it taste like drywall.
So, what’s inside these little powerhouses?
Caffeine + B12: This combo is your no-nonsense, get-up-and-go fuel. Caffeine gives you the initial jolt, while B12 ensures the energy is long-lasting without the dreaded crash.
L-Citrulline + Pink Himalayan Salt: L-Citrulline helps improve blood flow and hydration, while the pink Himalayan salt supports electrolyte balance. Bonus: pink salt sounds fancy and makes you feel like you’re treating your body to something luxurious.
Tyrosine: Think of this as your brain’s hype man. Tyrosine is known for improving mental clarity, focus, and motivation, which is exactly what you need when you’re powering through a workout or a long study session.
Beta-Alanine: If you’ve ever felt that tingle from your pre-workout, that’s beta-alanine at work. It helps fight fatigue and boosts endurance, helping you push past those “I want to quit” moments during a set.
All of these ingredients are included in a tasty gummy that tastes good. Not just “eh, this doesn’t taste like poison” good. More like “wait, are we sure this is pre-workout?” good.
For the Hustlers and the Movers
So, who exactly are Bursts made for? Let’s paint the picture.
You’re in your car, 20 minutes from the gym, and you’ve forgotten your shaker. Again. Or maybe you’re walking into a 7 AM class, needing more brain power than your morning latte can provide. Or it’s 5 PM, and you’ve been in meetings all day, but you promised yourself that you’d move your body today. You need a quick boost, something that fits seamlessly into your busy life. This is where Bursts come in.
It’s not just about convenience—it’s about consistency. Bursts make it easy to show up for yourself, get that workout in, stay focused, and power through study sessions or late-night work without pouring half a scoop of powder onto your desk. You don’t need a bottle. You don’t need a sink. You don’t even need to think twice about it. Just grab a gummy and go.
A Ritual, Reinvented
Here’s the wild thing: once you start using Bursts, they become more than just a supplement—they become a ritual. It’s the same way you might tie your shoes before a run or cue up a playlist to get in the zone. Popping a few Bursts becomes your mental cue, signaling to your brain that it’s time to perform.
Unlike that weird chalky drink that made you burp through squats; these gummies are enjoyable. They’re something to look forward to. It’s like a little treat before you crush your next workout. And unlike those pre-workouts that taste like regret, Bursts make you feel like you’re in on a secret. A secret that makes fitness easier, more enjoyable, and more effective.
Power Crown Labs: No Suits, Just Sweat
What makes this story even more special is that it’s not just another faceless company pumping out products from a corporate headquarters. Robert and Rowan, the co-founders of Power Crown Labs, use Bursts. They made it for people just like them—people who want to stay consistent, even amidst the chaos of daily life. There are no models with abs of steel promoting products they’ve never even touched. Just two regular guys with a passion for fitness and a simple idea.
And they’re just getting started.
This is the beginning of something big, not because it’s the next health trend, but because it’s solving a problem in a smart, simple, and fun way. Bursts are proof that innovation doesn’t always need to come from a lab coat. Sometimes, it starts with a messy college kitchen, a couple of guys with a vision, and a simple question: “What if pre-workout could be easier?”
Bursts: Small Gummies, Big Energy
To wrap it up:
If you’re tired of clumpy powder and weird bottles… If you’ve ever dry-scooped pre and questioned your life choices… If you’re always on the move, trying to be better, stronger, and more consistent.
Then you need Bursts in your bag, car, gym locker, and life. They’re changing how we approach pre-workout—no mess, no stress, just pure energy in a convenient, tasty gummy.
Because, as Robert and Rowan proved, sometimes the best ideas come from the most unexpected places. So, here’s to the Bursts revolution: small gummies, big energy, and a lot of innovation.
