Great Product, Measurable Results
By Living, LOVE
I have been using MRI Black Powder for about a year and a half now and I love this product. I formerly used Super Charged Xtreme NO from Labrada which is a good product but I felt like it lost is effectiveness too early. MRI Black Powder gives you a sustained energy level that stays up even after working out without any weird side effects (jitteriness, too much/too little sweat, weird tingles). The product is a little pricey but the results are worth it. I have had huge gains while using this product and have greatly reduced my plateaus. I do recommend switching up your use to help with building up a tolerance. I usually only use 1 scoop in 16 oz. of water on a lighter day where I am mixing in more cario I go with half a scoop in 16 oz. I also recommend starting off with a lower dose if you are not use to using a pre-workout formula. Good Luck and I hope you have great results!

Good, but maybe not the best product on the market
By Thomas Pruitt
I used Black Powder almost every day for about two years. Here are the pros and cons:Pros:--Taste. It's not good, but it's tolerable, and it can hide the taste of creatine if you're also taking that pre-workout.--Cost. It's pretty expensive - it'll run you roughly 20 dollars a month if you're using it every day, which is less than some of the "designer" NO supplements out there and is about the same as Jack3d and NO Xplode.--Effectiveness. You'll get a great pump. Don't get me wrong, there are other products that will work similarly, but it's important to note that, unlike a lot of workout supplements that are just a waste of money, this actually does work. Personally, I tend to bench press maybe ten percent more when I've taken Black Powder vs when I've gone into the gym without it.--Doesn't have some of the weird side effects of other products. Jack3d is the main competition here, and that stuff tends to make people feel weird or sweat or have weird feelings on their backs. Black Powder doesn't do that.--Works almost immediately. Unlike, say, NO Xplode, you'll be able to feel the effects of this within a few minutes. Personally, I like to take it in the locker room right before I get a drink of water and start lifting.Cons:--It has carbs. Only about 10 per serving, but it's still worth considering if you're doing a keto diet.--It has calories. Jack3d is calorie-free, while I'm not sure about NO Xplode (I imagine it's about the same or more than Black Powder, though). That said, it's only 45, plus some people like to have a few calories right before working out. Basically, this won't make you fat, but it's still technically got calories.--Price. This is also a pro in that it's relatively inexpensive, but it can still set you back a little bit, especially if you don't shop around. I recommend buying in bulk, since the 3 pound tub is a better value than the 1.5.--It'll make you feel pretty weird the first few times you use it. Basically, if you're a first or second time user, expect to feel like your heart is racing. I didn't get the same feeling with the other products I've tried, although I'm pretty sure that's because I had already been taking Black Powder on a daily basis for a while.All in all, it's a good supplement and worth the money if you're a weight lifter, although I haven't noticed an effect when I'm running. I recommend it, but it's also worth checking out other products like Jack3d and NO Xplode to see what works best for you. Personally, I'm still using this from time to time, but I prefer Jack3d based on the taste being marginally better.

Great for a workout
By GKSEATTLE44
Black powder is great to get you going before and during your workouts. I can't take fat burners anymore, which raises my anxiety levels, and this product was the best replacement for that. My pumps keep going and have no problems with energy!
