I found this product and was using it for about 6 months I fell in love with it, my workouts were awesome so I was wondering what your thoughts on this product are? Fruit punch flavor is yummy too.:):tongue:

    Some people like it, but it's got a warning label for a reason imo. I can't even deal with a 5 Hour Energy before a workout, so I'll avoid it.

    The product is safe and its weird because I cant do 5 hr energy either but this stuff I can handle and Gave me great endurance. I only take half a scoop as opposed to 1 full one though.

    Try just half a scoop about 30 mins to your workout- Up the dose if you dont feel it but I did on just a half scoop :) let me know how you like it..

    I like it, but I found out it can cause false positives on a drug screen. I'm on probation, so I stopped immediately.

    I have the blue raspberry. I've had it for like 6 months, but I'll let you know if it works or if I like it. The guy at GNC swore by it, I just forgot I had it lol.

    I have taken three drug screens on same ingredients with no problems

    A good chunk of sports supplements may cause you to have a false positive. However, most experienced drug screeners know the difference in the findings if you tell them what you're taking. I'm in law enforcement and subject to random drug tests. I've gone in and told them all sports supplements I've taken recently and had no problems (no false positives either).

    On the subject of Jack3d, it didn't do anything for me. Then again, I have to drink 2 energy drinks to get the same kick as a cup of coffee lol. I'm currently taking NO Xplode (which I got for a steal).

    For some reason that product is banned(discontinued) in Canada, I'm guessing it's due to health regulations. Also, I prefer my pre-workout to contain a BCAA too. Yup good thing to only use less than what's the recommended dosage.

    I want to say cocaine...its rare, but I think you have to take EXTREME doses for it to show.

    It Is that 1,3 Dim that causes it. I don't remember if it's in jack3d but it's in that 1.m.r. Stuff. It causes a false positive for amphetamine. A good drug screen will be able to distinguish the difference but I can't take any chances. It's a good product though, no doubt. The system doesn't always play fair and I'm the county I am on probation with is notorious for violating probationers for any reason.. so until I'm off probation, I can't risk it. I'm sure I'd be okay but that's one game of Russian roulette I can't afford to play!

    Jack3d was my first preworkout drink. It got me to workout, thats for sure. I didnt even have to take a whole scoop. Over time, it didnt have the same affects though. I highly recommend it for people who need help to start working out.

    It shows positive for amphetamines because of the geranamine or 1,3-Dimethylamine
