Pre-workout is the category where you are paying least for ingredients and most for presentation. In Cyprus it runs from about €4.00 to €18.33 per 100 g, with a median near €10 — the highest median of anything we track. This page shows what it actually costs across Cypriot shops, rebuilt every morning from their own storefronts, so you can see where a tub sits before you buy it.

Prices are collected automatically from each retailer’s own public storefront and normalised to € per 100 g so packs of different sizes can be compared fairly. They can change at any time — always confirm on the retailer’s page before ordering. We list competitors alongside ourselves and do not weight the ranking.
Why € per 100 g is a rougher guide here
We publish the per-100 g figure for consistency, but it is worth being straight about its limits in this category. Pre-workout scoop sizes vary far more than protein or creatine scoops — anything from about 8 g to over 20 g — so two tubs at the same price per 100 g can differ substantially in cost per session. Where a listing gives a serving count, cost per serving is the better number, and the cost calculator will work it out for you.
The other complication is that “pre-workout” is not one product. It covers everything from plain caffeine to long stimulant-and-pump blends to fully stim-free formulas. Comparing across those on price alone is a bit like pricing shoes by weight, which is why the ingredient panel matters more here than in any other category we track.
What to read on the label
Look for a full ingredient breakdown with amounts. The single most useful thing a pre-workout label can do is tell you how much of each ingredient a serving contains. A blend that lists ingredients without individual amounts — often called a proprietary blend — makes it impossible to know whether the interesting components are present in meaningful quantities or as a trace. That is a transparency problem regardless of what the ingredients are.
Check the caffeine figure specifically. It is the ingredient most people are actually responding to, it varies enormously between products, and it is the one most likely to matter for how you sleep. If you train in the evening, or you simply do not want the stimulant, a stim-free option removes the question — our guides on pre-workout without caffeine and stim-free formulas cover what is left once you take it out.
Treat the price gap sceptically. A tub at the top of this table costs more than four times one at the bottom. Some of that buys genuinely fuller dosing. A good deal of it buys flavour range, packaging and marketing.
What we will and will not tell you it does
We do not attach performance claims to pre-workout products, on this page or anywhere else on the site. Where a benefit is formally authorised for an ingredient we quote the approved wording exactly; where it is not, we describe the product for what it is and leave the judgement to you. For this category that means we will tell you what is in a tub, how much it costs per serving, and how it compares to the others on the island — and we will not tell you how it will make you feel or perform.
That restraint is deliberate rather than coy. Pre-workout is the category with the loudest marketing and the least settled evidence, so a straight price and ingredient comparison is genuinely more useful than another confident opinion.

Frequently asked questions
How much does pre-workout cost in Cyprus?
Across the 54 listings we track at Cypriot retailers, pre-workout ranges from about €4.00 to €18.33 per 100 g, with a median near €10 — the highest median of any category we track.
Is price per 100 g a fair way to compare pre-workouts?
Less so than in other categories. Pre-workout scoop sizes vary from around 8 g to over 20 g, so two tubs at the same price per 100 g can differ substantially in cost per session. Where a listing gives a serving count, cost per serving is the better number.
What should I look for on a pre-workout label?
A full ingredient breakdown with individual amounts. A blend that lists ingredients without quantities makes it impossible to know whether the interesting components are present meaningfully or as a trace. Check the caffeine figure specifically — it varies enormously and is the ingredient most likely to affect your sleep.
Does a more expensive pre-workout work better?
We do not attach performance claims to pre-workout products. What we can say is that the top of this table costs more than four times the bottom, that some of that buys fuller dosing, and that a good deal of it buys flavour range, packaging and marketing. The ingredient panel tells you more than the price does.
What if I train in the evening and do not want the stimulant?
Stim-free formulas remove the question entirely. Our guides on pre-workout without caffeine and on stim-free formulas cover what remains in a product once the stimulant is taken out.
How often are these prices updated?
Every morning, from each retailer's own public storefront, normalised to € per 100 g so pack sizes compare fairly.
