Default Gaspari SuperPump250 Review


Taste: I must say, this is one of the worst tasting NO products I have tried. I literally had to force it down it taste so bad. I would not want to drink this every day. Maybe if I could find a way to make it not taste so bad I would use it on a daily basis. Rating 3 out of 10.

Consistancy: It mixed very well and had no lumps in it. It went down just like water. Be advised though, when you shake it, there is a lot of pressure so if you have a push on lid, the top might pop off. I only shook it for 30 seconds and everything was dissolved. Very easy to mix with water. Rating 10 out of 10.

Overall: The product gave me a great pump in the gym. I am sitting here typing and my arms are still pumped! I wouldn't say that it gave me a lot of energy because my lifts didn't go up any today. Overall the product did what it was supposed to and gave me a great pump in the gym. I would definitely recommend this product as a vasodilator. Rating 8 out of 10.

If you go to www.metrx.com and send them an email saying that you are interested in getting one of their shirts. Someone will probably be able to help you out. Unfortunately the bbing sites don't have them for sale. They should have the new "under armour" type shirts coming out soon also...

Regarding this product, I've heard various reviews stating that although it gave them a really good pump, it made them sick afterwards or during the consumption of SuperPump250.

Did you detect this at all? I believe one of the problems concerning the above is that they probably did not follow the instructions of consuming it with an empty stomach.

I will gladly and highly recomend NOT taking this product! In my experience with it I can honestly say this was one of the worst things I ever purchased. I mean the pumps weren't too bad, but between the taste and the time spent in the bathroom afterwards, this product isn't a hit on my list. The product tastes so bad that it has made me throw up once. The only time I recomend taking this is if you are trying to live as a recluse in complete solitude, the gas this stuff gives is horrendous!!!!

i agree.....this stuff was horrible on the GI system. it's not quite as bad as BSN's no-xplode....but it still does a number on you. the same results can be obtained by adding any arginine product and 200mg's of caffeine pre workout

Besides the time spent in the toilet in the begining, I have had great results using Super Pump and Size On from Gaspari. The taste for Super was okay. However, Size on tasted like crap at first and now I guess I am just used to it. Anyhow, I actually called Gaspari customer service and told them about the excessive trips to the bathroom. The guy told me to try taking it after I have eaten something. I tried that and didn't have to hit the toilet at all. Just wanted to share that with you guys becuz I know this stuff can be a pretty effective laxative. It's not as effective as BSN NO-Xplode for energy, but the pumps are out of this world sometimes...Hope this helps.

I agree this product tasted like ass (fruit punch) but the pumps and my focus was excellent on this. I will drink ass tasting cell volumizer for these pumps anyday.
