Gakic Hardcore Sample
MuscleTech Gakic Hardcore
Please Take Note:
Uh, I usually dont make reviews like this. But its not even worth my time to talk about.
Made me:
1. have diarrhea
2. feel like i was gonna puke
3. gave me chest pains
4. get light headed
5. my stomach still hurts bad
I didn't notice any positives to my workout and the caps taste like ass.
If anything was good in my workout, I contribute it to my whole wheat pasta I had preworkout.
Overall 0/10
Sorry guys.

I just used my sample (never tried the new version until now) on monday.
Hit some nasty personal bests on dumbell incline and thats with a really sore shoulder (rotator cuff).
Now is it a conicidence? hell it could be but in my opinion it helps me crank out an extra rep or 2 at the very end of my sets.
Also please note this is at the end of a cut so strength should be dipping.
Old PB 105's for 3 sets of 7 on incline new PB 105's for 7, 8 and on the final set 10.

Everything works differently for everyone, with that being said the original worked well for me also. Luck me? nah i'd never actually purchase a full bottle and if I did I'd just use it on chest and back day.

Isn't there yohimbine in it? Probably what caused the interactions...

I went through a whole bottle of the crap, and I got the same side effects, and had to gag it down each day.
Didn't do a thing for me

I actually used my sample yesterday. No weird **** like you guys. I actually took on empty stomach and chest workout was about an hour or so. Didnt feel any huge pumps or rush or anything but when I did finish, It seemed like I was ready for alot more. Overall not happy or unhappy with it. But I did read the label which also said to take 4 caps your first day. How about you guys?

I really liked the original Gakic...actually, I did not realize that they had a revamped version...I personally don't like it when companies change a product to include caffeine, b/c I'm stim sensitive and don't depend on products for energy.
question for the MT rep....is regular gakic still available?

Hey fellas,
Let me answer a few of the questions posed in this thread. GAKIC and GAKIC Hardcore, formulated by Team MuscleTech are unique patent-protected pre-workout products. Only GAKIC and GAKIC Hardcore have a clinically proven key complex designed to immediately boost strength and enhance resistance to fatigue. In a clinical trial performed at the University of Florida, test subjects experienced an instant surge in strength of up to 24.3 and up to a 28 percent increase in muscle growth stimulus with their very first dose.
Currently, only free samples of GAKIC Hardcore are available at Bodybuilding.com; however, the original GAKIC NSF version is available at an exclusive Bodybuilding.com price of $49.99 for a limited time. Check it out: http://www.bodybuilding.com/store/mt/gak.html
Please feel free to ask me any other GAKIC/GAKIC Hardcore related questions.

Try knee wraps, though you'll probably look and feel like a dbag wrapping your knees with anything less than 3 plates.
As for the subject at hand, I received my samples yesterday and I will try them out. I don't expect much from any supp whatsoever, so if I feel even anything slightly good, it will be huge.

Am I gonna die?
I just took some gakic hardcore, 4 pills and started my workout. I warmed up and was feeling amazing, then I went to do my first set. I was squeezing out the last rep when all of a sudden my brain felt like it exploded and I collapsed to the ground. The pain was so intense I couldnt get up for about 5 minutes. Its been about 25 minutes now and my head still hurts pretty bad and its feeling kinda numb. Im not blaming the supp, just wondering if anyone knows whats going on or experienced anything like this? It literally felt like my brain exploded. Any advice or anything would be great. Thanks.
