[QUOTE="DKS2814V, post: 11471753, member: 27079"] Never used Jack3d...so, read on, if you wish, from my own experience using these pre-workout drinks. Pros: Used NOXPlode. Stuff works. I would go into the gym 30-45 minutes after I took 1-2 scoops of the stuff (I don't drink a lot of caffeine), and would hit it pretty hard. I would say I could legitimately add 5-10lbs to any exercise (sometimes more), than I did before using the stuff, and would hammer through more sets than usual. My muscle fatigue came on a lot later than without taking the stuff. Overall, the stuff works but you have to ensure you drink water like crazy. For comparison's sake, I benched 185...and, within a month I was up to 215, and it was relatively easy. (I weighed 175 at the time...5'9-5'10) Cons: Holy shit, and in no way is there a pun intended. This stuff would make me hustle to the bathroom within 10 minutes of taking it. Brutal.....gaseous as hell too. I was worried that if I didn't drop 'em off before working out, I'd be cleaning shit off my leg after a good power clean, or dead lift. I'm serious.... The stuff CANNOT be taken with any other caffeinated supplement. I had a sweet-tea at lunch....lifted at 4pm. When I took the stuff, workout was f'ing fantastic....but, then on my drive home, I felt like I was having a stroke, or heart attack. Immediately pulled over. Scariest feeling in the world. My muscles all over my body cramped up, and I couldn't even open my hands to dial for an ambulance. Both arms went numb, and started getting really dizzy, and feeling like I was going to puke. Drank a little bit more water, and finally hands opened up, but now my entire body was numb. I started jogging around my truck just to try to get the blood flowing so I could make a phone call if necessary. Lesson learned? I don't touch anything with caffeine in it at least 24hrs before taking the stuff. Even chocolate. I've never been that scared.... Other bad side effects that I had: Technically, getting aroused was more difficult. Don't get me wrong, I could plow a coke can if it looked at me nicely....but, while using NOXplode, it was as if my brain wasn't putting blood where it was supposed to go.
