Although I am noticing a huge significant change in my body structure (everything seems more defined), I can not completely attribute it to the Jack3d just yet. It does seem like the Jack3d helped (since it has Creatine, and a couple of other muscle building supplements), also the Protein mixes I’ve been taking after workouts have shown improvements on my body and recovery time.

I haven’t gotten much sleep recently either, and I don’t want to be on Jack3d (which makes my heart race like a sprinter, out of control) when I’m not on a sufficient sleep schedule.

Before I go into detail about my 1st workout, let me just state that I have a weak stomach, and get easily psyched/can easily trick my mind into thinking something’s going on that really isn’t.

With that said, I had the best workout of my life today. I was adding up to 20lbs at EACH machine. I worked on leg press, tri pulldowns, chest pushups, leg extension/curls, bi and tricep curls and pulldowns, upper and side back pulls, and 2 different abs machines (torso twists and weighted crunches). I went from 180lb leg presses to 220lb. I also increased the majority of my reps from 12 to 15 for each set. Needless to say, Jack3d had some amazing effects on my routine.  I took less than the recommended dosage (3/4 instead of 1 to 3 scoops) of Jack3d about 30 minutes before my workout. I was focused, felt good pumps, and had a lot of energy.

I am on a circuit workout system, where I do 1 set of all exercises then go back and do another, and another (that’s the goal at least).

I flew through my first circuit set, and was anxious to get on to my 2nd circuit set. However, about half way through my 2nd set, I felt exhausted, my heart was racing extremely fast, I felt light headed and nauseous. Needless to say, I quickly stopped what I was doing, sat down on a couch and tried to calm down… But I couldn’t. I went to the bathroom because I knew something bad was going to happen. I dry heaved once, sweated out like crazy, and felt amazing afterwards. I felt rejuvenated, and ready to go. I’m not sure if that was the Jack3d or my nerves, I’m thinking it was my nerves and the fact that I raced through a complete circuit set faster than my body has ever done before.

I could have kept on going and finished my circuit routine, but I stopped to give my heart and body a rest. I waited about 15-20 minutes and the 15 minute abs class started, so I jumped in on that and completed it. The class kicked my butt, but I still had energy left afterwards. I decided that I was pushing my body too far for taking less than the recommended dosage of Jack3d and to call it quits for the first day.

During my workout, my arms and chest never looked and felt bigger/stronger. I had more energy than I’ve ever felt before. And most important, I was focused. Focus is probably the single most important drive-factor that I lack on a daily basis, and Jack3d delivered it to me.

The next time I workout (Monday), I’m going to take 1.5 scoops which is a little above the minimum recommended dosage, but well under the maximum. My body usually reacts very strong to any sort of foreign supplements such as caffeine, alcohol, energy drinks, and those types of enhancers. So, I think 1.5 scoops of Jack3d will have a better effect on my body than 3/4, and should have an overall more focused workout session.

I’d like to state again that anyone considering taking supplements (most notably, pre-workout since they deliver some hard effects on your body within an hour), please be careful. I can easily see how these types of formulas can make you think you’re a god. Don’t let me get you wrong, I took less than what was recommended and I even felt like I was stronger than ever before. But just because you feel like you can do more, your body is still your body, and it can only take so much. Your mind might tell you otherwise, but in the end, your body will react how it needs to, in order to save itself. My mind kept telling me to go, but my body was dry heaving in the bathroom. I felt great though, don’t get me wrong. It is now about 3 hours after my Jack3d intake, and I feel great. I ate dinner, drank some protein, and I could fall asleep if I wanted, but I don’t need to yet. I don’t feel any crash and can’t wait till next Monday for my next workout session.

Until next time, keep on pumpin guys/gals

Not really sure if it’s the Jack3d or me. I have pretty weak nerves, and a weak stomach, but this is the only product I’ve read about without a lot of adverse side effects, or requirements (such as drinking 120 oz of water in a day).

Only been 8 or so minutes, so we’ll see.

We’ll see how this goes!

I hear nothing but rave ratings in regards to Jack3d, so we’ll see. I plan on giving an update as to how I’m feeling before I leave to go to the gym, and of course when I get home and intake some protein.

Wish me luck! If I don’t respond, I’m dead.

I’ve always been the athletic type. Started baseball when I was 5 and played through high school, which totals 13 years of playing. I’ve also traveled around on multiple state competitive level teams. Those days are long gone, and I’m currently a software engineer (visit my engineering blog at mariocatch.wordpress.com).

I’m becoming obsessed with working out, beefing up, and living an overall un-stereotypical computer programmer life

This blog will, like my other blog, motivate me to keep at it, push harder, and kill it at the gym.

I’m also going to review the supplement(s) I take, workout routine, and progress.

Stay tuned and thanks for reading
