Anyone recommend a N.O. for weight lifting? I used to take Optimum Nutrition N.O and it worked well but I want to try something else. I recently bought N.O. xplod and well...IT DOESN'T WORK @ ALL. I've increased the servings multiple times but NOTHING; if anything it made me totally nauseous midway through my workout- I heard good things about jack3d...I'm also considering just plain coffee pre-workout. Thoughts?

    Try Arnge Krush...it may work for you. I, personally, don't like it, but my fiance does. It's funny...I LOVE N.O.-Xplode grape, so good <3 Hope this helps!

    I like Jack3d but I also cycle off of it for long periods as I don't want my body to adjust to it..
    Espresso in the AM (black/plain) is another favorite and works as well ;)

    you guys get that "wired, focused" feeling when drinking your brands? I got that from Opt. Nutrition, but not from NO xplode -

    @ecahill91 - i have fruit punch - gross!
  • N.O. Fury gives a nice pump without some of the more dangerous ingredients in other supplements. I don't use it for every workout, though. When I take it right before a squat or deadlift workout, I get headaches. Chest and shoulder days are fine, and I often take it later on in the day.

    @Grunt1 - How long is your "cycle off" period - maybe that's my problem - i've been using Opt. Nutrition for 2 months straight everyday - sometimes twice a day (1 for workout/1 for cardio).

    @artypartyvictim - headaches?? don't like the sound of that!
