Ok first I'm posting this just based on my experience in hopes that it may help others. No other reason.
Originally I started lifting with No-Xplod but then went to Jack3d. I thought jack3d was the greatest because of the minimal ingredients. I think that's a good thing because as I don't know the impact of every ingredient on my body less is more in my opinion. Anyhow used Jack3d happily for months. Cost is great as well. But I constantly hit plateaus.
When bodybuilding.com had a 3 for price of 2 special on Assault I tried it. Always wanted to. Cost is little more and more ingredients but with the special pricing pulled the trigger.
Well in the end there is no doubt for me that Assault constantly allows me to push though plateaus. As a matter of fact I hardly never hit plateaus. As long as I'm using it consistently before my workouts I reach new max lifts on several exercises.
I've cycled back and forth between the two products (Jack3d and Assault) just to make sure it wasn't just chance or something else but repeatedly jack3d makes me flatline or even drop weight while Assault is constantly moving upward with weight.
The core difference I feel is this:
Both products get me focused and ready to lift (caffeine) but only Assault provides the ingredients to allow my body to push more weight. I don't know which ones those are to be honest but it's definitely the feeling i get as I'm in the gym. With Jack3d I struggle throughout the entire lifting session. With Assault I can slam though it and want more.
Again only posting because I know there are many Jack3d users and maybe testing Assault may do you some good if you're hitting plateaus. And I know supplements impact others differently but for me there is no question Assault beats Jack3d.
Thanks
OB

Thanks to Sloop, I tried Assault, and hands down the best PreWo I have tried. I was debating on SP Max or Assault, and after reading his review, I decided to go with Assault and glad I did...

Thanks for the solid and honest review brotha! I love reading nice in depth honest reviews, makes it that much better when I see someone get the same joy out of the products I use. So what flavors did you get in the special? One of each perhaps?
lol My teeth would always be blue after drinking it too, and as for my favorite flavor I seriously can't decide...I have always been a huge raspberry lemonade fan though...REDCON1 BIG NOISE! Log https://forum.bodybuilding.com/showthread.php?t=175308671

I've been using Assault for five days now, and I'll agree with you (I've never used Jack3d, but I've used similar products and always been stimmed out to the max to even get energy). However, on Assault, the only stims I am getting is the minimal caffeine in the product. Re endurance - this is akin to the endurance and speed endurance I get on Drive (and that's something, considering nothing else I have tried has come close to Drive). Energy lasts, along with the mental focus, well beyond ~12 hours (another small miracle, since I am usually NOT functional without hefty amounts of stimulants). Definitely loving my time on it and will make it a staple in my supplement arsenal

Good review man, I have been trying to talk my buddy into assault for about a week now,finally today he is listening to me an going to order it here soon as our WF is gone..I have read nothing but great reviews about assault. So being someone that had used Jack3d a lot I'm glad to keep getting reassurance that I'm making a solid choice.

Awesome stuff! Definitely a solid choice - I've used products similar to Jack3d and nothing comes close to what Assault can do for me - check out my Review of Assault!

Shred Matrix is the ultimate, complete fat loss formula, and the one product that should be a staple in any fat loss stack!
Assault is a preworkout product from Muscle Pharm.
Sidenote: At 18 years old, you do not need any supplements but the Basic Staples (creatine, multivitamin/antioxidant, good fats, protein, and BCAAs) - I don't recommend using anything else until you're older and have built up a solid training base. NUTRITION AND TRAINING are what are going to get you results.

^This, I PREACH to people that Shred Matrix will get them the results they need if they are looking for that extra edge after their diet and workout plan is in check. I love taking it, doing morning cardio, then seeing how dry and shredded I look in the mirror immediately after muhahaha

We will see im honestly extremely skepticle.. Ive taken several months off the gym due to slipped discs in my back and have VERY high tolerances to stimulants and basically every other product ive taken.. Ive only seen results fatloss wise off oxyelite pro and that was in extreme doses...but i remain optomistic and hope for the best have heard nothing but good things about musclepharm products soo far..
