Product Review: Gaspari Intrapro
The first thing that should be noted when reviewing this product, is that it has received far fewer reviews than I have illustrated in previous blogs; Instead of hitting triple-digit reviews, this product has received only 8. However, I believe these to be a true representation of the product based on Gaspari's standing in the supplement community, and the over-whelming positive reviews that Intrapro has received. A 100% recommendation rating is a rare thing, and should encourage your decision to use this product.
Below are the main pros and cons that were given by each person that reviewed this product, giving you more specific insight as to what this product is really all about.

Product Review: USP Labs, Jack3d
It takes a wise man to ask for the advice of others, and with that in mind I'm going to continue to select certain products that are available through the Explosive Nutrition website that have received numerous, wide-spread reviews, so that you can make your purchases with the most comprehensive information available.
This week's product review: USP Labs Jack3d
The first thing you should appreciate about these results is that 674 reviews is an incredible number - the fact that this many people felt compelled to submit a review of this product is a testament to the product's controversial reputation and it's powerful pre-workout attributes. A positive recommendation of nearly 85% is a solid value, supported by 570 different users. While there are some negative and uncertain reviews of this product, the sheer weight of numbers will inevitably show evidence that this product's potency will disagree with a very small minority.
Below are the main pros and cons that were given by each person that reviewed this product, giving you more specific insight as to what this product is really all about:
FINAL THOUGHTS
Unfortunately, this is a product that I have no personal experience with. However, the fact that this product has received such a controversial reputation makes me approach Jack3d with a sense of cautious interest. This product has been on the market for years, I was aware of it when I was wrestling in the States, and remember that several of my buddies who tried this product enthusiastically reported the increased energy effects and the pump it gave them. This is in no small part due to a certain compound - 1,3 Dimethylamylamine, "while completely legal, it behave like a very mild amphetamine in your body".
Alarm bells should be ringing whenever a product requires an official defense statement, although this was mainly brought on by supposed rumours of athletes receiving 'false positives' during drug-screening tests.
Bases on the above evidence, this product - more than most - should be treated with caution when discovering its particular effects on your unique physiology. There is no doubt that this product is highly effect in the fields of energy, pump and focus. The ability to lift more weight AND keep your strength gains is of particular note. Pre-workout supplements are something I have tried to avoid in the past as I've never wanted to become dependent on chemicals to achieve an efficient workout.
But I am intrigued enough by this product that I will try it out on my next intense weight-lifting cycle, if only as to figure out if was worth replacing the 'e' with a '3'. My guess is; Yes.
