Anyone else think DMAA is crap?

I just don't get anything from it but headaches. DMBA on the other hand, is way way way better. But everyone raves about DMAA; anybody else get nothing but sides from DMAA?
 
How much 1,3 have you tried using? Or what product did you try with dmaa in it?

Perhaps you are simply taking to much or maybe their are nootropics in what you are taking and you don't handle those well? Just some thoughts.

I love AMP Cit so I wish it was back! haha 300mg or so of AMP Cit so much greatness! It has a dif feel for sure.
 
I've taken everything from the original jacked from back in the day, to the new hi tec jacked up. i took two scoops today along with 50mg of adderall. thats 50mg ampetamine, 50mg dmaa, and 200mg of caffeine. and I felt nada, but a headache. Same as the old jacked did for me, headaches.

Adderall is not likely to have any significance? It's a very strong CNS stim. Even stronger than DMAA.
I think the mix of DMAA and Adderall might be to blame.
 
I really like mesomorph so I can't say that I think dmaa is crap haha
 
Have you tried any eria jarensis products? Hypermax XT with eria jarensis combined with B-phenylethylamine and the rest of the stim blend hits surprisingly hard. Price Plow and Stack3d both have HyperMax XT in their top 5 best preworkout lists. The only non DMAA product in top 5.
 
People respond differently to supplements. I'd just enjoy the feeling you get from DMBA and move on. Maybe try something different like cubsfan815 suggested.

You're been on adderall for 8 years? Ever heard of cross tolerance? No wonder you don't feel anything from DMAA.

While you may have a tolerance for adderall, the unique interaction of adderall/DMAA may be different.

I personally do not care for DMAA. It makes me feel odd and jittery/shaky. I much prefer Juglans Regia and/or Eria Jarensis. To each their own, though.
 
Lot of the old DMAA preworkouts made me feel sick. So much so, that I could workout and had to lie down. However after getting two bjg bags of Thermogum Ive fallen in love woth DMAA, but on at 25-50mg(1-2 peices).

I think the issue I use to get was too much DMAA, Beta-alanine tingles, and a ton of poorly flavored fluod sitting in my stomach. I really hate BA tingles.

I still avoid any DMAA or stim preoworkouts. Had the same experience with Stimul8 a few times. It's all about the non stim pres these days. I'm more into the proven performance enhancing ingrediants. Though I might pick up some 25mg DMAA pills.
 
Def can't agree with this, but there are some people who just don't react well to DMAA. With that being said though, just because your the minority, doesn't make it crap.

Thank you! As I mentioned above, different people have different reactions to supplements. DMAA is not new. Many people love it and many people hate it. I don't really understand the purpose of this thread. OP doesn't like it. Okay. Use something else. It's not like this is a brand new supplement and we are getting initial user feedback.

why would you expect different results?

if you are sure dmaa caused headaches 'back in the day' chances are it will cause headaches now...repeating the same action expecting different results just doesn't seem real bright!!!

Not to toot my own horn, but I may be one of the most educated people on this forum. And specifically in this arena. But I know: I just wanted to give DMAA another shot.

I basically feel like crap after about 30 minutes of the effect from DMAA. I bought 5g, it's going to sit around a long long time I'm sure. Don't like it at all

Same man, I do great with DMBA though. I was trying to get a consensus on how many people had thought it was not all that great. I have the same 30 min window too after I take it.

I'm not a huge fan of DMAA either. It's very hit or miss for me, and often times I'll end up feeling sick from it.

I would definitely check out Eria Jarensis if you're looking for a preworkout stim. It delivers a very similar level of mental focus as DMAA, but without the jitters and sick feeling. Eria is a very clean energy that gives me awesome workouts. Check out Hypermax XT if you're interested in trying Eria. Hypermax XT delivers clean energy, great focus, and a good pump

That's awesome to hear man, it just seemed a funny comment to make given most people don't really disclose their qualifications here.

Same! I still have one tub of HyperMax with AMP. I really don't want to use it and lose it forever :(

I know one sites still has that version up, but I don't know if he just never updated the label's picture.

I'd like to talk to a few of them; there's lots and lots of technical info I think about posting that I have questions on. But other times I've tried people have been like "what?" Please no one think I was trying to be all I'm so super smart. Anyone know of any of these other technical experts on this forum?
 
I don't think is crap, but I do think that there are plenty of other stims out there that are WAY better like Eria Jarensis aka N-Phenythyl-Dimethylamine and J.Regia extract aka 2-amino-5-methylheptane. I've tried so many stims and what I found with DMAA is that I get a HUGE high and then HUGE crash everytime! DMAA is ok to use just once in a while, NOT EVERYDAY (tolerance, insomia). With DMBA aka AMP the situation is similar (tolerance, insomia) but I had no crash with it.

Must be fairly young? When I entered the picking weights up and putting them back down game dmaa was the standard. Got an amazing year of use out of it before I became immune.

I could sleep on DMAA.. didnt feel anything.. AMP Cit on the other hand is my lover <3 :D

I always felt that DMAA gave me a rush of energy that was short lived with a crash, intense at times afterwards. It was hit or miss. amp Cit always gave me incredible focus and never crashed. Loved Amp Cit for the focus and was my go to. What do you use now that amp is gone? Something that is not DMAA based?

Yeah I agree! no crash here either and the energy is lasting very long! Amp Cit is not gone where I live and I will prob not have to buy more for a long time.. have 90 grams left =)
 
I am starting to prefer DMHA, the energy lasts longer, more steady and less edgy. DMAA is still useful, i use it mainly for leg day, it makes me walk into the gym and hit the squat rack without hesitation!

I will have to look into that I never had HyperMax and didn't know it orig had AMP in it either
 
Didn't read thread just wanted to agree with thread topic.

AMP Citrate is superior imo. Cleaner energy, no let down, no noodle Wang ;)

So where do we get j regia without a crap ton of caffeine. I mean I love caffeine but not at the 300mg+ level. Palpitations are no bueno.
