NOT Recommended Hello and thanks everyone for checking out my review. Today it’s BPI’s Pump-HD. There’s been much controversy recently having to do with BPI. Many of their products like Blox, A-HD, and Solid have received either bad or really mediocre reviews and if you’ve perused many boards or forums you’ll know that there’s a good deal of people who have lost faith in this company entirely. Is this another stinker? Well read on.
Ingredients/ Dosing: 6/10
Serving Size: 1 Scoop(11g)
Servings Per Container: 30

Amount Per Serving % Daily Value

ELECTROLYTE MATRIX


Calcium (As Calcium Carbonate) 30mg 3%
Magnesium (As Magnesium Hydroxide) 12mg 3%
Manganese (As Manganese Gluconate) 2mg 100%
Potassium (As Potassium Bicarbonate) 99mg 3%

Creatine (As Creatine Monohydrate) 2000mg **
Aspartic Acid (As L-Aspartic Acid) 1000mg **
Beet Root (Root) 1000mg **
Beta-Alanine (As CarnoSyn®) 1000mg **
Glycerol (As Glycerol Monosterate) 1000mg **
Glycine 1000mg **
L-Leucine 1000mg **
PROFESSIONAL ENDURANCE AND RECOVERY BLEND (Proprietary) 1230mg

Taurine **
L-Carnitine (As Acetyl-L-Carnitine HCl) **
L-Tyrosine (As Acetyl-L-Tyrosine) **
Caffeine (As Caffeine Anhydrous) **
Psoralea Corylifolia (Seed) **
Pausinystalia Yohimbe (Bark) **
L-Ornithine (As L-Ornithine Alpha Ketoglutarate) **

What I like about this stack is that BPI had a clear goal in mind and set out to give you the ingredients that make a difference. Glycerol is great because it is known to push water and nutrition into your muscles, and provides the electrolytes, calcium, and aminos needed to help your muscles rebuild and work at their peak. Yohimbine ,Caffeine, and Taurine are great for boosting energy. What I don’t like is that for all the good things that are in here, there’s a lot that’s missing. Where is the agmatine, citrulline, or any of the other products you would expect here? They’re missing, and it doesn’t bode well for this product. The usual ingredients are also here like beta-alanine and creatine monohydrate which is good, but they’re nothing special in comparison to some other pre-workouts. I also like that at least some of the ingredients aren't under a proprietary blend, but it's too bad most of the important ones are.

Taste: 9/10

The taste of this product pretty much blew me away. Pump-HD has a lightly chalky taste, but the flavor is never overpowering and it isn’t cheaply trying to cover over the nasty taste of some products. I bought the watermelon flavor, but I had a couple chances to try the Fruit Punch flavor as well. Both are good, and the taste isn’t ever overpowering. The fruit punch has a slightly more intense flavor so roll with that one if it’s what you’re looking for. This product produces next to no grit, doesn’t clump up, have any floaters, and no aftertaste whatsoever. Upon drinking it the only sensation you’re left with afterwards is a minor pectin-like feeling/taste on your teeth. It’s tough to describe, but it’s almost like an easier version of the feeling that waxy maize leaves in one’s mouth. The dose is just one modest scoop, but advanced trainees are going to want to use two or three to really get things going.

Pump: 7/10

Here’s the important part. Pump-HD gets to work quickly and is especially noticeable when taken on upper body days -specifically arms or shoulders. When I used this on my leg days, I didn’t get much of a sense of anything. No pump in my calves, hamstrings, or quads, and no visible pump. I suppose this is to be expected, in my experience I don’t often get much of a “leg pump”.

Arm and shoulder days were quite a different story though. The pumps were almost immediate. I was barely halfway through my warm=up sets and the veins along my shoulders and biceps were already popping up pretty visibly. This increased vascularity stayed with me for the entirety of my workouts, and by the end my arms were noticeably bigger (as well they should be) as opposed to me not using a pre-workout at all.
That being said, I’ve heard several people tell me that their pumps actually hurt when they took this product. I call bull poo. While the pump comes on quickly, it’s pretty average and overall nothing to write home about.

Energy: 4/10
This flat out stunk. I suppose it did it’s job by getting me to the gym, but this product is low in stimulants so any Craze, Jack3d, or Mr. Hyde fans might as well ignore this product. Any sort of energy I had was quickly swept away and I know that if I had tried for longer workouts I would have burnt out. The energy generally doesn’t last very long either, roughly 45 minutes maximum. I didn’t crash, but I didn’t exactly “get wings” either. Looking back at it, this was really disappointing for me, but anyone sensitive to stims could make good use of this product.

I also didn't notice any boost in focus at all, which makes sense since there's very little in order to provoke such a response. This is disappointing since many of today's best pre-workouts make this a priority to maximize the mind-muscle connection among athletes.

Value: 5/10

This product usually runs around 30 bones. That’s pretty normal nowadays since pre-workouts have taken off the way they have, but I don’t think it’s really worth it. This pre has some basic energy boosters and is promising the world as far as a pump. I figure if this were five bucks cheaper, it’d sell significantly more. What’s worse, there’s 30 servings, and if you’re taking at least a couple scoops like I am, that’s 15 servings or less which is crap.

Side Effects: 10/10 (higher being better)
Nothing. No runs, nausea, jitters, stomach pains, gas, or burp-back. For some this is commonplace, but I often react poorly to most pre-workouts, so I certainly appreciated this fact. Even when taking more than one scoop, I didn’t see any bad sides.

Overall: 6/10
I had high hopes for this product and I actually wanted BPI to pull itself up by its britches to bring about a good product. What I got was an over-priced, over-advertised pump product that promised much and delivered about a third of that. It’s a real shame because this product could have been much better since many of the positives are undercut by the fact that this product is in many ways under-dosed and under-researched. In the end, it could have been really unique, but instead it’s about as middle of the road as they come. It’s a disservice to us lifters that BPI has gone the route that it has, and a shame this product did absolutely nothing to try to win me back into the company’s good graces.

Pros:
Cons:
  • Incredible Taste
  • Great Vascularity
  • Not A Great Value
  • Not Effective
  • Underdosed

Latest Retailer Review

  User: Kjm1977
Recommended By far and away the best prices and service of any supplement retailer I have used. The only problem is that they go through so much product that it is often out of stock. Other than that I don't see a need to use any other retailer as they will gladly stock almost anything the customer asks for. Best retailer in my opinion.

Answer #3:
Lets immediately kick #3 (ISOPURE) out of the running. This is a terrible ion exchanged whey isolate protein. It completely denatures the protein and is cheap. As Petey would say, YOU CAN HAVE DAT DER ION EXCHANGE WHEY.

The Iso 100 and Hydro whey are pure hydrolyzed whey isolates. The top grade and fastest absorbing. Both of these are solid but very expensive.

Iso Sensation 93 is a standard isolate but is fairly expensive as well.

Personally I use Hydro Whey, strawberry is great and it is a great hydro and bcaa blend.

But honestly, you must ask yourself why are you considering just hydro/isolate proteins? You could be into a Isolate/Hydro/Concentrate blend for much cheaper and yield similar results.

Is there some digestion issue you are having with non-isolates?

Answer #4:
Most of these are only minorly hydrolyzed to begin with, so Blades comment is on point. You're really not going to see that great adifference. PeptoPro is really the only protein that's hydrolyzed to a significant degree. I'm currently using RCSS Isotropic and can recommend it, it just takes some getting used to the taste.

Alpha-T2.. Does it cause frequent bowel movements?

I just started this a few days ago and I swear I have had about 5 or more bowel movements a day. I was on OxyElite Pro for 2 months, Now I am taking a month off and trying Alpha T2. i I just want to make sure this is normal to have this many bowel movements a day on this. I also notice i have the chills with it. Other than that I have no other side effects.
Answer #1:
I don't know about the increment of bowel movements with Alpha-T2.

What I can tell you is that you probably shouldn't be taking Alpha-T2 if you have just finished 2 months with OxyElite Pro. I would just take the month off everything to do with fat loss supplements.

Answer #2:
This tends to be one of he more frequent side effects of most fat burners on today's markets aside of jitters and crashing.

Generally, fat burners like alpha t2 influence metabolism in a way that favors fat loss. Consequently, this can have alteration effects of the digestive system in some users.

I would guess you are one of these users. If this is becoming too critical problem in the long term you may want to reconsider continuation of alpha t2.

Does Clenbuterol work better with HGH &T3 (for weight loss.)

Answer #1:
When you say HGH and T3, are you referring to the natty test booster T3 and an otc hgh product?


Clenbuterol is specifically targeted at fat loss.

Increased hgh and testosterone aid in fat loss, but do not specifically target this purpose more so than they target muscle building.

For this reason, clenbutrx would be more effective at fat loss.

But aside of all that, I don't think clen should be taken at your age. Not trying to be discriminant, but I think diet and general exercise are your best bets for fat loss.

Answer #2:
If that is your real age, you will most likely do more harm than good if you plan on using clen. Clen is hands-down the best fat burner in the world- I have experienced tremendous fat loss in subcutaneous areas- but it comes with a price- mostly heart and blood pressure related. Moodiness, light headedness, and extreme anxiety are all very common side effects. I don't think clen would be beneficial to you overall as it does not promote an overall healthier body. A solid cardio plan and proper diet should be your focus.

Answer #3:
this is not real clenbuterol. Clen is serious business, if you are not aware of the side effects you can cause so serious damage to your body. Also, "mighty warrior of the pumping iron legion" AKA "The Machine," T3 is thyroid hormone, not a Test booster.
