    i usually pop the pills before i leave to the gym - factor in travel time + change time, stretch time .. usually about 20-25mins elapse.

    My bottle says 45 min, but I usually goto the gym within 30 and I feel it working. Just be careful of your heartrate, I kinda try to keep it low intensity but difficult like uphill fast walking on the treadmill.

    It will take about 30 minutes to get into your system. Just like coffee or any energy drink.

    I used to take it 2x's a day.
    Once when I wake up, and another about 1-2pm.
