JP8 change of heart

The first time I tried JP8 I really had fight off the gag reflex, and I didn't feel anything in the gym. But, it was an unfair assessment because I had just come off a 3 month cycle of PRIME/POWERFULL. I believe my 1st few days of being on JP8 says more about my P/P cycle than it does negatively on JP8.

I decided to give JP8 another go a few days ago, still taste horrible, but I've had 2 incredible back to back workouts doing back and legs. So, I'll have to give JP8 5 stars on results, and 1 star for taste. I did start mixing it with juice about 2 hrs prior to workout, and have an apple with some protein an hour before workout. That apple cleans my palate of the bitter aftertaste.
What is the ingredient that leaves the acidic feeling on your tongue afterwards?

Anyway, all in all, EXCELLENT product!

Lemonade?? I only see grape as a flavor at Nutraplanet. Where did you get Lemonade flavor? I don't think that flavor is made.

The banaba leaves a funny taste, and the gynostemma and a few others add to the taste. I've definitely had some great workouts in the past with in, I'm glad you've finally got it to work for you.

Well that explains it, thanks Steve. Yep working great now.

Thanks for the feedback about your use with JP8. Most bulk powders have a harsh taste to them, and sometimes combining certain things makes only adds to that fact.

referring to the last line of your post, do you simply feel the grape is too potent of a stim or what? )just curious from your post)

anyway, i never used the old lemonade, but the new grape is awesome and is far better tasting than either of the nos ether offerings

yes, grape keeps me up late. Either a new ingredient, or more of an ingredient. not sure.

I workout at 6pm. If i take too much grape, im laying there awake until 1 or 2am. Even after i destroy legs.

the lemonade i can still manage to sleep on.

Thats why i stocked up on lemonade.
 
Yeah, the Geranium is in the grape flavored one. Chuck went into detail in some thread about the differences, I'll see if I can find it.

Probably the geranium Kristofer

actually geranium doesnt have a taste, i remember putting the powder on my finger and tasting it before. Its just JP8 is full of herbs and stuff, way more than in other products that are just caffeine, arginine, and blabla.
 
guys do you like lemonade better?(taste) im thinking of getting the ether/jp8 combo off nutraplanet and it comes with lemonade..id think itd be hard to taste worse than the grape haha...

they were talkin bout the geranium being the reason that the grape had more of a lasting stim effect than the lemonade

u have to take less if that happens, or mix it with more water and drink it over say 5-10 min, not shot gun it down.

Lower the dose like chuck said.

The below cured my problem.

I mixed my lemonade diesel with my grape diesel- 1:1 ratio.......

Its my own diesel hybrid.............Dieselade, I call it.

Still have two sealed tubs of the lemonade just for this reason......

Hmm...good idea. I blended mine on low with cran/grape juice and that helped quite a bit.
 
I tell people who complain to cut it with grape juice, and more water, seems to work fine for them. Stuff is crazy strong, and deserves respect. After using it all this time, I still haven't worked up to 1 scoop. It's not like a lot of the other big name pre-workouts that you need to work your way up to 3 scoops, it hits you fine on1 scoop, as per the label. It always pays to start on the low side of things, especially Get Diesel stuff since everything they make is so strong.

I've tested it up to 2.5 scoops - that type of dosage is strictly for the serious crackhead/stim junkie - which I thought I was. NFW man.

1 scoop will do the trick, your stash will last for months.
 
Well put. When I'm using DTH or DTP, I can cut my dose down even more. It's all about the synergy man. I forgot that my first time when I popped 2 DTH and 2 DTP pre-workout. The pumps were so intense, and I didn't want to leave the gym. Good times, until I had to work the next day.
