After using ALRI venom and Muscletech Hydroxycut Hardcore for a few months I thought I'd give myself a break from caffeine based stims for awhile. I was very enthused about trying Spike caffeine free. Even though I never tried regular spike I've read plenty of good reviews on it and I know Biotest is a pretty reputable company. Well I'm about halfway through the bottle and I'm still waiting for the "Extreme Energy" to kick in. I've tried it 1st thing upon waking on an empty stomach. I've tried it with 1/2 a grapefruit, since grapefruit can increase the boiavalability of some supps. And I've tried it with a regular breakfast on a full stomach. The only affect that it seems to have on me is the sense of a "mild alertness". I would say it's the equivalent of splashing cold water on your face. This stuff might work for someone who has never tried regular thermo's or is sensitive to them, but otherwise it doesn't seem to do much. |
