1. L-Arginine alpha-ketoglutarate (AAKG) - Arginine Alphaketoglutarate is the supplement that is responsible for the “pump” that comes along with using Jack3d. Arginine is the precursor for the creation of nitric oxide, which is one of the more powerful vasodilators in the body and helps provide additional blood flow to the muscles. AAKG has also been shown in studies to increase the building of muscles through quicker protein turnover, and to increase the blood levels of growth hormone. You can get tons of this stuff super cheap online about 100 grams for $10. Dosages vary from 1-5 grams
2. Schizandrol a - also spelled shizandrol a, is an effective component of the dried fruit, schizandra chinesis bail. Studies have found that schizandrol A inhibits the central nervous system, while elevating dopamine and dopac. This enhances mood, especially when paired with a CNS stimulant, such as caffeine or 1,3-dimethylamylamine. Benefits - Elevated mood, Enhances central nervous system stimulant effects and Increased concentration.Schizandrol A Dosage - Start with 50-100mg doses of schizandrol A to assess your tolerance level. Only increase you dosage once you are comfortable with 50-100mg doses. You can get 10 grams for $10-$15.
3. 1,3-dimethylamylamine - which is also known as DMAA or geranium stem, is a naturally occurring stimulant that works much like a stronger version of caffeine. Supplementing with DMAA prior to training or weightlifting will provide the user with an energy surge thanks to the stimulatory effects on the adrenals, which release epinephrine. As with caffeine, 1,3-dimethylamylamine also has very positive effects on focus and cognition and provides users with the “in the zone” feeling during training sessions and competitions. The main upside is that since DMAA is produced from a plant extract, it has very low toxicity for the body and is regarded as quite safe at the recommended dosing range of 25 to 50mg, taken about 30 minutes prior to training.
4. Caffeine - Everyone know about caffeine so it doesn't need explaining. You can drink coffee or buy caffeine powder. You can get 25 g. for $10 and 1/16 of a teaspoon has 105mg so you would need about 1/8 of a teaspoon.
For quite awhile I was just taking L-Carnitine pills and they rocked my world, at $7 for 100 pills at 500mg I was taking 2 pills before my workout and that was plenty.
So for a killer focused workout I would start off small by taking
500mg L-Carnitine
50-100mg Schizandrol A
200mg Caffeine (2 cups of coffee or 1 really strong cup) or 1/8 teaspoon of caffeine powder
or 25-50mg 1,3 dimethylamylamine
So for the price of 1-2 containers of Jacked that will last about 15-30 days you can buy enough product to last you easily 90 days!! Plus you can vary your intake of each product to fit your workout and focus!
