What Energy Pill Should I Try Next?

I’m looking for something new to try.

I know there’s tons of products on the market, but I just haven’t had time to go searching for something new.

Do you, my loyal readers, have any thermogenic to suggest that I review next?

I’m dying for the excitement of trying a new energy blend that gets my heart pumping…and the glee that comes with knowing I’ve found another really good product.

There are a couple of other thermogenics I still need to write up in the next couple days, but I’m down to my last bit of Thermo-Lean and need to order a crop of new pills!

Please feel free to contact me if you can refer something good to me!  (ie. just use the comment section below)

Arson Fat Burner Review

Arson – Legally Insane Fat-Incinerating SerumArson

Arson seems to be a pretty good product. I got a few samples from a health store and I was very pleased with the results.

The rush was good, fast, and strong. I see that their proprietary blend of engredients contains yohimbine, so that shows you they really mean business.

But I thought it was a little weird that one does consisted of 3 capsules. Why? Of course this means you’ll fly through the product much quicker. A bottle comes with 120 capsules.

One thing that sounded cool about them was that Arson is “shown to increase noradrenaline, your key fat-burning hormone, by 40%”. I’d like to try out a full bottle at the gym for a month and see what happens.

Firedrine Energy Pills Review

Firedrine Energy Pills Reviewfiredrine

My latest adventures in super energy are with Firedrine by Promatrix.

I’m very happy to be back into QUALITY territory again. I got tired of trying out weaker products.

I should mention that Firedrine contains ephedra.

But this product is a bit different from some of the other ephedra-based products I’ve tried. Here’s some of my observations:

  • I do NOT seem to get bad breath with Firedrine
  • The energy rush comes on pretty quickly and it is STRONG; I think it is stronger than most if not all the others I’ve tried
  • But it lasts a LESS amount of time; it seems that I crash around 1pm if I take it at 7am; the strongest point is around 10am, but I usually feel it kicking in by 7:30am
  • My kidneys hurt!! They’re fine now, but the first 2 or 3 weeks were a little annoying; I just made sure to drink lots of water and/or cranberry juice; don’t want any stones!
  • Enlarged prostrate: yup, I never brought that up with the other products, but it happens. Makes it hard to go #1 and #2.

They say not to take more than 2 per day and to take a 2 to 4 week break after taking it for a month. Today has been 4 weeks for me. There’s 100 capsules so I have lots left.

The ingredients appear to be the usual stuff.

I like it. To me it’s worth it, but I scare myself sometimes.

ThermoLean Review

Thermo-Lean

I’ve been taking Thermo-Lean for some time now; I’m on my second bottle.

What I like about this product is that it’s cheap and you can feel it working. You can’t say that about some of the other big guy products out there!

You can pick this up for about $25 for 120 capsules and one dose is ONLY one capsule!

These guys are good. Why do they “get it” and other people don’t?

At this point, I take 2 capsules and feel quite good in 20 minutes, but it tapers off around 5 hours later.

There doesn’t appear to be a magic ingredient, but just a good line up of the usual goodies and high doses.

Hydroxycut Hardcore Review

Hydroxycut Hardcore

I might make some enemies with this post.

I finally got around to trying Hydroxycut after having tried it back in something like 2000.

This time I jumped right to the “Hardcore” version, because…hey! It should be stronger, right?

Oh man, what a disappointment.

You would think that since the capsules are filled with liquid instead of powder, you’d get a huge rush really fast, right? Wrong.

Ok, maybe I’d feel something quicker, but you have to take about 3 capsules before you even begin to feel anything! Of course, that makes you fly through your stock much faster.

YES, THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE SWEAR BY THIS COMPANY AND PRODUCT. Yes, they have lots of testimonials. Yes, they make millions of dollars. Yes, someone is going hate me for not liking this product, but que sera sera.

As their website shows, people are losing weight with this product, and it’s the #1 energy pill in the U.S. But I need something stronger.  Too bad.

Trimspa Review

Trimspa Energy! ElectraSPA Energy Blend


A lot of people are big fans of Trimspa.

I guess Anna Nicole Smith helped their company gain a lot of attention. But didn’t Howard Stern used to promote them too?

Anyway, I finally tried this product, which I bought at Walmart. Now, I don’t know if it’s a coincidence, but I also got a stomach ache with it too (see previous posts).

It wore off after a couple weeks (my stomach problem) and I got to get a feel for Trimspa a little better. As far as energy pills go, it didn’t really impress me that much. It just seems to be geared for beginners. It really didn’t do too much for me by way of energy.

Plus, it’s a HUGE pill that’s not always easy to swallow. This bottle only came with 45 tablets and it suggests that you take 4 of them per day. Hmmm.

I’d list the ingredients and levels of potency for you, but why bother….

They have other products that may be worth trying, so don’t write them off yet.

Atro-Phex Review

I got some Atro-Phex from BSN a while back and now I want some more.
This is one amazing company with an incredible line-up of products.

Atro-Phex is basically your normal thermogenic energy pill, but it sort of screams “quality”. The packaging is top notch. It’s hard to put into words, but you know when hold some cheap product and it feels cheap? Well, Atro-Phex doesn’t feel that way. It’s sturdy.

BSN is doing something right. I was taking it around the same time that I had a huge tolerance to energy products, and I STILL got a rush from Atro-Phex. It’s got some good potent stuff in there.

I won’t even list the ingredients here. Just google them.

You’ll see plenty mentioned about their propietary blends and studies of such-and-such compound and its effects on the body & mind, etc. Sounds like they know what they’re talking about.

I will be looking to try a lot more of their products.

Zantrex-3 Diet Pill Review

Zantrex-3 is a bit of a lower-priced thermogenic. You can buy it at Wal-Mart and GNC Nutrition.

It was weird because I’m very accustomed to energy pills but this one gave me a stomach ache for the first week or two. After that I was fine.

The energy boost was enough to get you by. It’s OK.

Some of their ingredients are as follows:

  • coffee bean powder
  • niacin
  • yerba mate
  • guarana
  • green tea
  • kola nut
  • piper nigrum
  • ginseng
  • black tea

I’d say it’s worth a try if you want to pick up a low-cost thermogenic during your next trip to Wal-Mart.

Thermo Burst Review

I was able to get a few samples of Thermo Burst and I was quite happy with the results.

I got a noticable jump in energy and so right then and there, I knew Thermo Burst was a better than average energy pill.

It comes with niacin, yerba mate, guarana seed extract, black tea leaves extract, ginger root extract, and more.

You can read more here:

UPDATE: I’m not sure what’s going on, but I bought a whole bottle of ThermoBurst and I have not been so happy with it.

First off, the pills TASTE TERRIBLE. You pop one in and after swallowing, it leaves the worst taste in your mouth that’s hard to get rid of. Next, if you leave the pill in there for too long before swigging some water, the pill almost gives you a burning sensation. Yuck!

The stuff comes from GNC only, and it’s basically a low-tier product for less than $20. It’s weaker stuff with a small dosage of ingredients, so you won’t get SUPER results from it. I guess that the pills I took earlier in this review were either better quality, or I was just “energy free” for a few days before trying them.

To give you an idea, one pill contains only 6.67mg of niacin. It’s got all the other usual stuff, but just in low doses.

Anyway, it’s FINE, but I wish they’d encase the stuff in a normal capsule so I wouldn’t have to taste it. Blah!

Redline Pills Review

Redline is an amazing product.

First, I got hooked using their $4-$5 drink. It gives an amazing rush, which a lot of people said was caused by the Yohimbine.

I graduated to the their concentrated “syrup”, which I’m mainly writing about at this moment. I have never tried their capsules, but I want to!

I’m just assuming that their syrup version is pretty much similar to the pills, yet I’d expect that the concentrated liquid would get into your system faster than the pills.

It’s pretty incredible stuff, put out by VPX.

The Redline syrup works great, gets you feeling energized for a workout fairly quickly, but it tastes terrible, of course.

It’s so much like medicine, but if you have some other drink you can swigg right away, it’s not too bad.

Just don’t carry it around with you in a bag that will get banged around a lot; the liquid starts to seep out no matter how hard you try to stop it. It doesn’t necessarily “leak”, but each time you pour it out, a little stays on the outside. And then more, and more, and more. Sticky messes ensue.

Ingredients are caffeine, evoburn, n-acetyl-L-tyrosine, guggulsterone, yerbe mate, green tea, vinpocetine, yohimbine….and only 9 calories!

Anyway, you really should check them out and try the product that’s best for you. The drink, the syrup, or the pills. Redline is one top-notch product line.
