"stim dick"

Hey guys,

I’m pretty new to the forums. I love it here.

My question: do any of you take pre workout supplements before you go to the gym?

I started taking N.O. Explode and Jack3d and both seem to have the same affect on my penis. After I take them I go to the gym and work out hard. When I get home my penis is completely turtles up and it takes a ton of stimulation to get hard again.

I stopped taking them and working out 2 years ago because I blamed them for my erectile dis function I had with my girlfriend at the time. After a month of being off them, it all went back to normal.

Do you think these stimulants will affect my growth? If you google “stim dick” it seems to be happening to quite a few people.

I wasn’t sure if I should post this in supplements or newbie but since I’m a newbie, I didn’t want to post in the main forums.

Thanks all!

Personally I would drop the NO-EXPLODE and just take a straight AAKG powder 45 mins before working out.

AAKG is the ingredient in NO-EXPLODE that promotes more vascularity/the "pump". But BSN adds other proprietary ingredients that may be affecting you in other ways. And then they slap a big $$$$ price on it so they can pay for their glossy ads in Muscle and Fiction

Vitacost AAKG 3000 L-Arginine Alpha-Ketoglutarate Powder — 3000 mg per serving - 1.1 lbs (500 g) $25.99
Herbs & Botanicals - Body Systems, Organs & Glands - Liver Health - Milk Thistle - Vitacost

AAKG is the ingredient in NO-EXPLODE that promotes more vascularity/the "pump". Recommended dosage is 3g a day. I take about 6g, so the tub of 500g is quite economical.

Thunders members take AAKG for stronger erections. (It is a nitric oxide precursor). An enjoyable side effect is for a lot of us, it increases the amount of semen we ejaculate.

As far as the Jack3d, I am not familiar with that product. Looks like it is some kind of pre-workout CNS stimulant? What about a cup of espresso instead?

Note on BSN: I do like Syntha-6 and TrueMass if you can get a good price on them.

I took Jack3d also for about 2 months and it did the same exact thing to me. It gave me so much energy and stamina that I would push my muscles so far and exert a lot of energy without tiring. Afterwards, my dick was turtled for a couple hours until the affect of the Jack3d wore off. I found that if I took about 1 1/2 - 2 scoops than I would not turtle as much, especially if I drank a lot of water. If I took up to 3 scoops than I would be so off the wall and workout too hard.

However, I must say that I gained a ton of muscle mass taking that supplement. It increased my strength so much and was the best product (energy wise) that I have ever taken.

Also, this was before I started PE, and didn’t care about the turtling effect. Now, that I’m getting serious about PE I’d rather not take something that will make me turtle that much and thus no longer take the product.

Great replies! I’m most definitely going to look into the AAKG. I’ll gladly accept strong erections but I don’t want to be walking around the gym with a stiffy!

Yeah I had to get off jack3d after last month. It left me wired all night and I could tell my penis was afraid of it by how much it turtled.

I’m going to finish this tub of no explode. I think there’s about 6 scoops left. Then I’m going to take your suggestions and get on the AAKG.

Thanks guys!

Honestly I don’t know if Jack3d is safe. It stimulates sympathetic nervous system, increase heart rate and blood pressure. I won’t recommend if you have any underlying heart disease or risk factors. It may also interact with many drugs.

I work out every day, sometimes twice a day and I have used different pre-workouts but I have to say that I have never experienced this. I have not used Jack3d though. It has way too much caffeine. I will say that I don’t turtle in the first place, so that may have something to do with it as well.
