The original Superpump 250.

I was just reading last night that the original formula was banned due to something in it. I was just wondering if anyone knows what that was or if that was even true. I remember that being the 1st pre I ever tried and really liking it back in the day.

If I remember correctly, the original Superpump 250 wasn't banned as in banned by the FDA, but was banned by NCAA athletics, but most would be now days by that standard bc at the time the limit was 250 mg. of caffeine. And if I remember correctly, Gaspari turned that into a positive spin on it for marketing, like so strong its banned by the NCAA or something like that.

Gaspari back in the old days did make some products that were banned like prohormones, ATD, etc. but I don't remember that having anything to do with Superpump 250.
 
I remember a couple things about it...
1. I got a ton of it on that glitch side site of bb.com for next to nothing
2. Shittin myself before every workout after taking the accurately named super dump. Worked great though.
 
Yeah, was Super Dump 250 for me as well. I think it had 600mg of magnesium in it. Remember feeling great during my workout…..then suddenly having to run to the washroom for an intense liquid ****.

Did Gaspari get caught with hdrol in some stuff? Maybe I'm mixing up companies
 
It's been awhile but I think they actually just sold H-Drol as Halodrol 50 back when you could buy pro-hormones at GNC.
I did know that, they might have been the first, if it wasn't CEL who brought hdroI, @sns8778 would know. I just thought they (Gaspari) had spiked something, all good I was probably mistaken on the gaspari supplement spike.

I also wonder why superpump made everyone here **** there brains out lol

I don't remember them being one that spiked supps or was caught but it seemed like there were several that did. I remember the old Aspire, 36 I think it was called, that had Viagra or Cialis in it.

I don't think they ever spiked anything. If they did, I either don't remember it or never heard of it.

One thing that was confusing back in the old days is that when the FDA did go after companies selling ph's and things like that, the way they would phrase it is by saying that the product contained a misbranded drug - but what that really meant was that they were saying the ingredient itself didn't meet the legal definition of a dietary supplement, and therefore the product itself was a misbranded drug. Some people misunderstood that and thought companies were spiking things with 'drugs', but the FDA was considering the ph you were intending to buy and that was declared on the label as the misbranded drug. Like if you bought Halodrol and read that the FDA considered it to contain a misbranded drug, it didn't mean that it contained another drug, it meant they were calling the Halodrol that you intended to buy a misbranded drug bc the misbranded part was them saying it said dietary supplement on it and it didn't meet the legal definition of a dietary supplement.

Gaspari definitely spiked OG Detonate (which reminds me, I still have a couple unopened bottles of that).

I remember hearing about that, but wasn't even thinking about that because that was a different time period. If I remember correctly, that was after the whole Craze thing happened.
 
Was the original Gaspari Plasmajet laced with viagra? The one that came in blister pack ampules. Their marketing for that was great.

Makes sense, thank you for the explanation 👍
 
Kinda related, I'm almost certain the OG SizeOn was spiked with an anabolic.

I've NEVER had results like that with a "natural" product.

Good times!

Yeah, it was a great product. They had some serious talent in the early 2000’s.
 
And @ndiguy just curious when you first started using supplements because that may play a role in how you responded to products (first timer for pre workout or creatine)
I had been working out and utilizing supplements for a few years at that point.

On paper, their Max Performance version should have been a superior product (based off the ingredient profiles, anyway). The topic was actually a semi-regular discussion on the bb dot com forum at that time. Many users were underwhelmed & we'd almost have to argue our experience with the Gaspari reps. They eventually speculated that creatine gluconate (which was removed in favor of monohydrate due to cost and availability) may have been the difference maker.

RIP OG SizeOn
