I have used a variety of creatines, no2, and other supplements over the years. I was mostly coming to the conclusion that they were all wastes of money (aside from basic creatine). Some things may have created pumps, but no sustainable strength gains. Some created strength gains, but had awful... and i do mean awful side effects. Some just made me sick to my stomach and gave me headaches...
My experience with NO-Xplode
First day...
It fizzed up out of my glass. I wasn't sure if I did something wrong, but after a few weeks I've realized it just does that.
Taste was kind of funky. It felt almost acidic and bubbly. I thought it would surely react harshly with my stomach. I took 2 scoops.. Once down, it didn't produce any stomach discomfort. I guess it got all its fizzing out in the glass.
About 10 minutes later I started getting this incredible energy. It didn't feel like a caffeine high, but more like immense natural energy. At 30 minutes it was almost overwhelming... I had to lift and lift hard to get this energy out. I actually WANTED to do squats. I lifted much more weight than normal with relative ease. I was absolutely amazed. The only down side was that my heart did get going very quick (not necessarily bad), and I was sweating a lot. I thought this was the best workout I have ever had in my life.
A few weeks in..
Effects are not as intense as that first day. Energy has diminished each day, but it is still strong and I have not had one workout on this stuff that hasn't been incredible. I've clearly gained muscle and lost fat, but we'll see what happens when all the creatine induced water goes away.
Conclusion
Although I have lots of time left before I can give a definitive answer on the staying power of gains on NO-Xplode, I know that the sheer intensity of the workouts, drive, and focus has caused me to get much better workouts and I've had absolutely no negative side effects. If you are going to get any supplement... get this one.
