This supplement made my workouts much stronger. I could lift longetr and harder. I'm a bit worried though. i am 19 years old and i went to the doctor and my blood pressure had risen to 140/100. I dont know if it is worth the effects.

I have been using Black Powder for about a week now. I dont really get super pumped like i did with no xplode when i first started usin it. But the focus with Black powder is great. And the taste is much much better than no xplode. Overall great product

I've used this product three times now. I was questioning it at first, but I just did an arm workout and got an AMAZING pump. I saw veins I've never seen before all up and down my arms. This is a great product. HOWEVER Do not mix this in a shaker. It foams up and actually burst the top off of mine the first time I used it.

i have used noxplode and it is no were nearly as good as mri black. with black powder you can easily get up heavier weight and xtra reps.

Well i have been taking this for 3 weeks. I had never taken any pre workout before this so i didn't know what to expect. This give incredible focus and after alittle warming up you can feel a pump. In 3 weeks my bench press went from 180 to 220. I also have sustained energy the entire workout, but that could be from the extra glutamine i take. i would definitely recommend this to anyone who needs some motivation or needs to break a plateau. when i bought it, it was on sale so the 40 dollars was definitely worth it. great buy

This product is the real deal. I have been lifting since I was 16, now 25. Played college baseball and took working out very seriously...I have used NO Xplode for the last year or so with 3 months on 1 month off. I bought Black Powder to take for my one month without Xplode but Im not sure I will switch back. The pumps I get with this are better than the Xplode and I had energy through my whole routine. I might end up using this for 3 months and switch to Xplode for my off month. Only drawback to the Black Powder is the jittery feeling you get, never had that with the Xplode. Im 6'0" 185lbs and around 6% body fat, maybe the 2 scoops is too much but it really gives me a great kick and pump...HAPPY LIFTING!!!

I've used this product for close to a week now. It's a little sweet for my tastes. I had to take 2-3 scoops in order to really feel anything from it. My body just doesnt respond to this stuff the way it has to other products. I'm going to use it until its finished though in hopes that it'll eventually kick in for me.

Ive been working out for quite a few years. ive tried a few supplements. and i have to say black powder knocked me off my feet. the results just in the first dosage were incredible. i doubled my sets the first day. i do notice im really shakey after my workouts but it does go away as soon as i get home and chug down my protein. overall Black Powder is Highly recommended and no joke really works

I am a 46 year old male, 6'-2" 203 pounds with 12.5% body fat. I have tried Gakic and I like it, I have tried all kinds of Creatine and none have done anything for me. MRI black powder is the best thing I have ever tried. I was a bit skeptical at 1st but when I took it and hit the gym withing 30 min, I maintained my strength for hours. IMHO none of this stuff makes you strong but they take a fatigue out of your muscles so you train longer and harder and consequently you get stronger. I love this stuff and would recommend it to anyone.

Hi, I bought this product at [] and I have used it for about 2 weeks, I am not amazed by it, tastes much better then N.O. Explode, it doesn't make you sick like N.O. Explode but the results of N.O. Explode are better. -Eri

I've been lifting weights for a couple of years now and have been through quite a few supplements now and this is the hardest hitting one I've tried. The first day i took it was ridiculous, I thought I was going to pass out I was lifting so hard. I have been taking it for about three weeks now and after week 1, I could notice my body was starting to tolerate the caffiene(as normal) so I started taking 1.5 scoops instead of 1 and its done just fine. Just a couple of drawbacks - I work out at 8 in the morning and I'm jittery until 11. Also, this stuff has given me some pretty serious diarrhea. I stack it with NitroTech Hardcore and noticed within the first week I was getting bigger and stronger. After three weeks, I have started doing atleast 15 pounds more and more reps on everything. Gives you amazing focus and pumps This stuff is for real.

I have trained for about 5 years. I lift in a sanctioned powerlifting league, I am a state champion, and I have tried literally ALL the pre workout products, this is by far the best. Not the best tasting, that would be super pump, however the intensity of my workouts has never been higher. My shirts felt tighter after one week of training, and my recovery time shot down. Overall for the results and the science that MRI puts behind their products, this product is for sure worth the cost. would suggest to any lifter!

I've use Superpump 250, NO Xplode, NO2 Black and currently use MRI's N30 in pill form. I was intrigued by the claims of Black Powder. Overall I've been pretty impressed by MRI's products. They're overpriced but I can't complain about the results. I've only taken Black Powder today for the first time and noticed that I had a lot more intensity in my workout. I didn't fatigue on my cardio routine nearly as fast as I usually do and I did feel slightly more pump in my weight workout. It's too early to tell if it was worth the price but it was nice change from the N30 horse pills. If nothing else at least I got 2 free samples of the MRI whey powder that I've wanted to try for a while anyway.

Wow... i bought black powder a couple of days ago, and today was the first day that i tried it...it does hit you kind of hard, and you breathe a lot better, but If you want to drop some weight it would be helpful because it gives you diherea like crazy, or maybee its just me. but i would deffenetly recomend this product because it really helps you get those extra reps in, and it helps you focus a lot better, so if your thinking of buying this, you should deffinetly try it out and see how it works.

I've also only been on this for 2.5 weeks and can say that it really hits you in about 10 minutes. You really breathe better. Focus is intense, but after a week or so you lose that caffeine rush, cycling it= probably not necessary- the body naturally gets accustomed to caffeine. You're never going to get a "rush" out of the stuff that's really working anyway. Biggest improvement-you can usually pound an extra rep or two, and you breathe a LOT better, imo. If you're pressed for time in the gym this helps your receovery a lot. In terms of $, there are *certain* [] it's about $45. So do the math- 40 servings, $45= $1.25 a training day. I train 4 days a week- $45 is going to last me 2 months. I hate this stuff. jk it's working great. No plans of quitting. One other thing- I take this at 5:30 in the morning with a couple glasses of water (to rehydrate from the night's sleep before training). I'm at the gym by 6- usually train for an hour. The energy is there for more work but common sense tells me i've done enough for the day. I get on the treadmill aftewords though and do about 17-20 min HIIT, and this stuff definitely helps with it. Just wanted to reitterate the big increase I've experienced in breathing/cardio. Helps eliminate cramping also. Definitely would recommend.

I used to obsess for NO-Xplode, not anymore. Black powder offers a much more calm, much more serious focus. I lift heavier and longer, while my breathing during lifting seems easier, and after any serious reps I don't feel like I'm gonna fall over like NO-xplode does. I stack it this stuff with Plasmavol, I'm not sure which one is doing most the work, but the stack is working AMAZINGLY
