Product Description
While some products may cause the excitation you need to get motivated to get into the gym and move weight around, but unless you also have some "energy in the tank" you're not going to perform your best. Yet, with USPlabs Jack3d, you'll not only have to force yourself to get out of the gym, but you'll get more repetitions in while you're there. More repetitions will ultimately lead to more muscle mass. USPlabs Jack3d has a precise blend of compounds that will not only get you flying through your workouts like a mad man, but will allow you to have hours upon hours of energy without a harsh crash at the end. In essence, this product hits both angles, allowing you to increase strength, power, focus and stamina, while providing the motivation to get into the gym. The end result is better performance in the gym and ultimately, more muscle mass. * Picture may be of different size or flavor

 Absolutely Insane. November 24, 2009
Zeppelin Fan (St. Louis, MO USA)

Let me start off by saying that I since I started lifting three years ago, I have gone through countless bottles of NO-Xplode, Superpump 250, Nano Vapor, and Energized Xpand. While all of these have worked for me (Energized Xpand is definitely the best out of the four), I will absolutely never go back after trying Jack3d.
First of all, the taste is absolutely phenomenal compared to any of the above-mentioned supplements (tastes like Lemon-Lime Kool Aid). Since it is so concentrated, I only need about 8 ounces of water for two scoops, which is great in itself. I remember having to fish around for the largest cup I could find when I was using NO-Xplode, because there was so much powder to water down. It takes me less than a minute to finish my cup of Jack3d.
I have never felt anything like the effects I have gotten from the five or six times (so far) that I have used Jack3d, and have so far built up no tolerance - it's been two scoops every time. Almost immediately upon drinking it, I get a tingly feeling starting in my face which then progresses to my entire upper body. I'll admit that it's not the most comfortable feeling ever (kind of like when your foot falls asleep), but it's nice because you really feel like the product is working. This effect only lasts about twenty minutes.
20-30 minutes after consuming Jack3d, I start to feel the energy. It's not a sudden rush (and sudden urge to crap) like other pre-workout supplements. It's almost euphoric; I've never gotten this effect from anything else. The energy does not wear off (or even wear down) for hours. This is the first supplement I have ever taken where I do not start crashing toward the end of my workout or on my way home. I literally (I know this sounds cliche) have to force myself to leave the gym, usually after well over an hour. The pump I get from this product is probably the best part about it - absolutely unreal and unsurpassed.
I have been changing my diet recently, which probably has some to do with it, but since starting using Jack3d a week and a half ago, I have gained around 3 lbs. I am an extremely hard gainer, and am confident this product (along with a high protein and carbohydrate diet) will help me finally reach my goal of 200 lbs, with 6 lbs to go.

My experiance on jack3d has been pretty good so far. I'm currently sharing it with my friend so I have not used it all the way through. Let me get started on the ingredient list off of their website and their purpose listed in the proprietary blend:
Arginine Alpha-Ketoglutarate - this basically allows more nitric oxide into the muscles and allows for what experienced lifter refer to as the "pump"
Creatine Monohydrate - allows for increased size and strength of the muscles. However, on the website they do mention that it is considered a small amount of creatine and that they actually recommend buying a separate creatine powder for maximum results.
Beta Alanine - an amino acid that is supposed to reduce fatigue when working out.
Caffeine - the effect of caffeine is pretty obvious as a stimulant but it also speeds up the metabolism to help burn fat. although on the website it was alarming when I read, "Our estimations are that there's about 100mg of caffeine in each scoop of Jack3d". It's alarming because it sounds like the makers of Jack3d don't really know how much of each ingredient they're putting in, and that's why I'm marking it 4 stars. In a powerful nutrition supplement, I want to know exactly what i'm putting in my body and how much.
1,3-Dimethylamylamine (Geranium [Stem]) - this is supposed to be an amphetamine for your nervous system, giving you a small rush of adrenaline. Because of this ingredient, they do NOT recommend more than 3 servings (scoops) within 24 hours. On the website the makers note that there has not been any long term studies on this ingredient.
Schizandrol A - sounds like a b.s. ingredient to me. on the website it says, "The following studies show that it also has potential antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-amnesiac, neuroprotective, and hepatoprotective effects for the liver, but a lot of these studies are rat studies and we do not know how much would be needed to get similar effects for humans". reading this from their website makes me feel like I'm buying an under-researched product.
As for other ingredients, they are just for flavor, smell, and color I believe. Those are Citric Acid, Natural Lemon-Lime Flavor, Acesulfame-K, Sucralose, Vegetable Stearate, Silicon Dioxide, Chlorophyll (For Coloring).
As for the product its self, does it work? I am happy to say yes. It gets me pumped up and when I'm at the gym I just want to keep lifting the entire time I'm there. Naturally, I was skeptical when I read the reviews and heard from a couple of buddies that you experience a certain "focus", but the focus is there. In fact I've taken Jack3d on non-workout days when studying before a test. I've been dead tired, woke up extra early to study for a couple big tests that I've procrastinated on (I'm a college student) and had repeatedly been nodding-off while studying. But after drinking jack3d in the morning i feel wide awake after only a few hours sleep. I flew through my tests as soon as i got them and all with good grades because of some serious studying when waking up. Now, I've only done this a couple of times because I know that jack3d shouldn't be my crutch for bad study habits, but it does get me in the mood to really focus on what i'm doing at the moment.
As for gains.... I don't believe that somebody can fully attribute any of their gains to supplements. It's really about the intensity of the work out that will get you the gains and the workout plan. That being said though, when I used jack3d i feel motivated to do a couple extra reps and that's why I like this product. I like it better than other pre-work out supplements because the serving size is so small (but powerful) that you don't have to drink it with much water, so you don't get a stomach ache. I have the tropical fruit punch flavor and I don't really like how it tastes. It's not that bad, but you would never say that it tastes good. I haven't tried the Lemon-Lime flavor but I've heard that one might taste a little better. When I take jack3d i get a tingling feeling in my ears. It's kind bizarre. I gave a scoop to my mom and she said she also experienced a tingling feeling. However, this feeling doesn't last too long. My other friends have not experienced this though, maybe it's the tingling feeling only happens to a few people. Overall, It's a good pre-work out drink, and I'd recommend just trying one scoop at first and working your way up to more scoops if you see it fit. 4 stars.

I've tried everything a dozen times twenty. I was/am a huge proponent of NO-Xplode and when told to give this stuff a go I was skeptical due to my past dealings with things like "Black Powder" & "Nano Vapor". Two products that are absolute junk in every sense of the word. While only using it now for 2 full days I can already tell you this stuff isn't NO-Xplode. And yes, a lot of times these things do have varied results on the user. While some never gain on NO-XPLODE, others explode on it. (like me). This stuff here, JACK3D is a burst of energy and a great focus drink in the immediacy. It's almost instantaneous really. You drink it and in about 10 min I feel it in my system. The problem is it really doesn't do much else for you. The strength gains it gives are very much apart of the focus and extra energy it's giving you. Noxplode, however, is a tremendous pump you can see and feel all through your workouts. This stuff doesn't pump my muscles up at all. I can feel it stimulating them but there is no visual difference in me like with No-Xplode. There just isn't. No-xplode is a product that just gives you the results up front.
Another thing I have incurred is major crashing about an hour after my workouts. I mean, bad! To where I'm almost upset and edgy and just feel drained and down. No-xplode doesn't do this. On the contrary it actually makes you feel pretty damn good about yourself. I tend to workout an hour to an hour and a half a day. I workout a specific muscle group and then utilize the rest of my time to run about 5 miles on the treadmill. While I believe this stuff gives me an edge on the treadmill, and the determination to get thru it, and not be so focused on being board, I don't feel it has any effect on my actual weight training routines.
I think it's an average product. If you can get it for 20 bucks it might be worth a go just to see if you are one of the body types it resonates with but I won't order it again after my 2nd bottle arrives; in which I ordered in advance sadly.

I read the other reviews and was skeptical on this product thinking it may be the manufacturer or seller fabricating these reviews . I have had trouble finding an enduring supplement to get me going during workout since the ephedra days. I used this product this morning about an hour after having a banana and about (8oz)of oatmeal. I took two scoops and mixed it with about 8oz of lemon lime powerade and downed it about 10 min before workout. I felt it start to hit me within minutes and really hit me about 20-30 min later. This stuff works big time! However, there is no way I am taking two scoops again, and have no idea how someone could handle three on a near empty stomach. It has stayed in my system for at least 2-3 hrs and really works. There is a very "slight" crash that I think will be rectified once I lower the dose down to 1 scoop (as directions suggest you start off trying). I highly recommend not trying this product with any other stimulant until you feel the effects, it works.
Mental focus plus extra reps December 15, 2009

This is a very powerful product, and you definitely should NEVER dose more than what they recommend. In addition, cut off entirely your intake of caffeinated drinks (soda, coffee, tea) on days that you will workout and use Jack3d. Lastly, only use it when you work out.
This stuff gives you a ridiculous sense of energy. 15 minutes after dosing, I feel tingly all over my body, and when I listen to some Rage Against The Machine, I'm ready to lift trucks and push llamas up a hill. When I workout with Jack3d, I push about an extra 2 or 3 reps, and I have the energy to do one more set of whatever I'm working out. Also, I find myself needing less time to rest, and I find my workouts much more efficient. The amount of work I do at the gym in 45 minutes of time on Jack3d is probably equivalent to what I would do in 90 minutes without it.
Afterwards, when you go home from the gym, you'll be in the mood to do homework, your laundry, the dishes, and maybe go back to the gym. I don't recommend you use this if you plan to sleep a few hours later.
With that being said, it's not a miracle product.
It's a nice catalyst to get you going, but you're still going to have to put in all the work if you want to see those gains.
When I'm done with my stash, I'm going to take about a month break from it to wash out any sort of physiological dependence/down-regulation, but I may purchase it again because it works so well.
I pair this with Animal Pak vitamins, and I take half a serving of whey (26g protein) before workout, then a full serving (52g) post-workout.
UPDATE 15 Jan 2010: It's been about a month since I've been off of Jack3d, and I'm happy to report no adverse effects of coming down, and as far as I can tell, no real physiological or psychological dependence on it. At least that's my report. I can't say it's the same for everyone. I now do a pre-workout of whey+BCAA+creatine and 2-3 cups of green tea. I don't get the fuzzy feeling from Jack3d, but at least I still get pumped from the caffeine.
