JP8-Grape feedback

some people just can't take grape have you tried other grape flavors. for me it's one of the few flavors i can take i'm very fruit orienented i guess. i can only my fruit flavored protein as well. but i'm assuming if i can gulp nighttrain i can gulp jp8

Well i wish i had better news but i just tried the new grape and to me it tastes about worse than the lemonade and its impossible to mix with a spoon (as chuck did warn us you need a shaker).I will try a shaker tommorow.
If this JP8 works as well as the lemonade then i will continue using it.I really was hoping i would like the new flavor but i dont really care how it tastes as long as it works and i can get it down.
Hopefully others will like the flavor,I am still Get Diesel all the way!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well i havent giving up making this stuff work for me.I have tried it several times at 2 scoops since i got it and all with the same result of puking it up as soon as it hits my stomach.
Today i tried just 1 scoop and holy crap i kept it down without a problem and just finished up a excellent workout.
I knew how great JP8 is thats why i never gave up on it even though i did about toss it in the trash several times.

Glad to hear that. Looks like 2 scoops was just too much for you:shocked1:

Ya i guess so. Its amazing how a pre workout drink can have such a great effect on just 1 scoop.

Yea for some thats is all you need. Just like most things in life more isnt always better. JP8 hands down is one amazing product no matter how you look at it.

It all depends on the size of the scoop I guess :lol:

But seriously, it's great to get 40 servings from one container. I'm pretty sure this is the dose I will need, which makes it a great value, considering I picked up em for ~32.30 after the 15% savings!

Guys I love Get Diesel and all their products, and I am sure JP8 is a great product, but I tried the new Grape flavor today and I could not even get it down or keep it down. When I drank my serving I just kept burping it up over the course of my workout. I have to say I am really surprised since I am used to drinking thinks with not th egreatest taste but just becasue they are good for me/or do what I want them to do. But this was one drink I could not stomach. I think it may be that taste is an individual thing but for me this was not a good thing. Sorry to be the barer of bad news but I still urge people to try it for themselves and don't let my taste buds make you miss out on something that may be a great experience for you.

oh lord.

How soon pre-workout did you take it? You have to take it over 30-45min pre-workout. If you dont like the taste of jp8 or anything, you can mix it with fruit juice.

for me i find its the only preWO product i can take like 20 min preWO and im completely dialed in, others take longer to hit me, but never dial me in like jp8

anyway, i had the best chestWO maybe ever today, handled the 120's and for a guy only 200lbs it was a feat for me.

I love this product though chuck, im in a rotation with our new LG product, shotgun v3 and grape jp8. I can count on the others to give me great energy, but jp8 dials me the **** in, my focus is through the roof.

Like I mentioned earlier, the taste is good too, which i have never really thought with your other products.

Congrats on putting out a winner Chuck, I need to buy a lifetime supply of this stuff, I know your constantly tweaking the formulas, but let this one be, I cannot see any way of improving this!
 
Good call Chuck! I probably took it too close to the workout and that may have been the main source of the problem. I will give it a try and make sure I am 30-40 min out so hopefully it will pass out of my stomach and settle a bit. Also maybe the juice is a good idea? Is there anything that should be avoided as a mixer because it may decrease the effectiveness?

I got sick from taking 2 scoops also. I couldn't keep it down. Switched to 1 scoop. I had a kick ass workout. I think it tastes like Ready for War(neutral flavor). I've worked my way up too 1.5 scoops. I eat a little something before taking JP8. That seems to have solved any problems. This version of JP8 is hitting a lot harder than the previous version at 2 scoops. My veins were popping out before I got to the gym. Goes great with Nos Ether. This is my new favorite pre workout supplement with NCP right behind. Great Job Chuck!!!

I'm pretty much the same way, pre- workout drinks hit me easily within that time frame with most of their effects, might have something to do with not eating more than an hour before I lift. JP8 hits me even quicker, and of course, much better. Honestly, it was one of the things that got me back into using supps again, kinda restored my faith if you will. hardest part is not using it all the time.

Haha I know all too well what you mean. I almost feel like im only giving 70% on days I forget to take it, or bring it with me. Like I know even if I had a good workout, it could have been better if I took my JP8 first lol.

not really, I dont mix mine with any juice, but u can try 1/2 cup of fruit juice and about 10 oz of water.
 
I have found now(after 6 days on) that the effects have lessened a bit in terms of the focus. Normal? If so, than my presumption is that having my off day from lifting tomorrow is a good thing

I'm sure the case could be the performance and all that is the same, but its like eating a cheese burger every day for 6 days.
 
thats my thought, I am glad to take the day tomorrow and hit it hard again on wednesday
 
I had an amazing work out today. I had trouble sleeping the other day so I think I will only use it for morning workouts. Still on one scoop. Good Job Chuck. I may have a fight next month and I'll probably hit up two scoops that day! Chuck you need to get this into the mma/muay thai/bjj market.

Its in Fight Magazine, but I dont know if I will keep advertising in there. Glad its working for you. Also I wouldnt just jump to 2 scoops from one, maybe 1/2 scoop that AM and 1.5 scoops 1.5h pre-fight or something like that.

Hey just wanted to say make sure you give enough time before the jp8 and your fight. Nothing like a kick to the stomach when your pre wo isn't digested. btw where do you fight out of?

yeah for sure. I wouldint take any stims within' 1.5h of a fight.
 
Im interested to try the new flavor...I know when I first got JP8 diesel lemonade I could barely stomach it (as Trip knows 'cause I PM'd him whining about it...hahaha)...I found mixing it with a little Crystal Light did wonders for me...
 
Ok did my first dose of jp8 yesterday didnt go so well i only mixed with 6oz of water and while i was chugging it down alow of powder touched my tounge and throat had to add more water. The taste wasn't great for me and I was burping alot. OK that's the bad next time I will mix with 10oz and see how that works.

Now the Good:

before the gym i could already see the veins in my forearms. The PUMP was Awesome and I felt like I could just keep going on the weights and cardio.

Even though the taste isn't what I'd call great it does what it says and that's the bottom line for me if it works i'll chug it down anyway I can.
 
Tried it for my first time yesterday. Taste is absolutely fine. Much worse tasting stuff out there. Its actually pretty good imho. Mixability blows, but not too bad in a shaker. No biggier. I really enjoyed it and would highly recommend it. I took 1.5 scoops and was very focused and had a good workout. I don't know how people complain about the taste, maybe stick to NO-Xplode... The ginger I believe in it, is a bit unpleasant, but other than that, its fine.
 
OK second day went MUCH MUCH better now that i knew what the mixing was like i mixed it in 10oz of water and had 6oz of plain water in an extra cup I shook it hard for about 45sec than chugged it down. took the extra 6oz of water rinsed my mouth and I was good to go. Once again i felt like I could just keep going in the gym pumps were better than superpump or shotgun this stuff really brings out the veins they look thicker too the last two days.
