ripped fuel

does anyone know anything about that ripped fuel stuff by twin labs? Is it all just a scam or does it actually work?

**painless2** · August 15th, 2005, 10:43 AM

It works, it is just a stimulant that's all. I used it when I was competing to help with the cardio phase, it's much better than coffee.

havent tried ripped fuel, once the ephedra is gone.

well geuss what man, its ephedra free now. And ive also got a question, if anyone knows the answer, is it bad to take ripped fuel if your trying to gain muscle? It says that it preseves lean muscle and stimulates fat loss, but i dont want it to take away at my gains, if it does.

its much more complex than just taking the pill. gotta keep your calorie intake at a high level with lots of protein to preserve the muscle and low in fat and carbs to shred off the fat.

Greetings Apache! This is my first post... and here is my little rant about what i know about ripped fuel.....

Try taking it with aspirin. WARNING this makes it stronger. I found this out years ago, mimicking a supllement that was essentially ripped fuel with aspirin. Aspirin, caffeine, and ephedrine together give the body a "thermogenic effect" meaning your temperature is raised and you will burn more fat. Avoid suger, and get a good healthy balance of of protein, carbs and healthy fat. Your blod sugar will be stabilized. Chromium in ripped fuel helps to stabilize blood sugar also. Synepherine alkaloids (derived from citrus) in the new ripped fuel do effectivly replace ephedrine akaloids as a stimulant. Carnitine makes your muscles fast. If you take a normal dose of 2 ripped fuel pills, try reducing it to 1 1/2 with 1/2 325 mg aspirin pill. Or better yet, use white willow bark instead ( 2-3 grams?) . You should notice an increased calorie consuption. I started taking ripped fuel to help me run, as ephedrine is a bronchialator. I'm not sure if the synepherine has the same effect. Since then (much later) , I've gone through a phase where i was smoking and would run up a motorcycle trail carrying my bike WHILE SMOKING!!!! I've quit smoking now though, and somehow after all that filterless smoking, my lung feels great! Joking Aside, I've found the best results by always changing my intake and habbits for that matter also. Dont get set up on a pattern, it will doom you to dependency. Always Change your program up a bit, espescially with regueard to the use of stimulants. Keep your body guessing, (normal dose one day, reduced dose with asppirin another, etc.) Remember that this supplement does nothing by itself, without your own hard work and effort. It should be used as a tool to jump start yourself to be able to perform that way without it. Remember that dependency on such stimulant chenicals is a weakness.

Welcome to the baord On RadioactiveWaves!

Personally, I think that all of the supplements without ephedra are relatively worthless. I used the thermo stack frequently years ago and had great results with it. What a great thermogenic! I tried Ripped Fuel, Hydroxycut, Metabolife, etc. Also, made my own stack with Caffeine, ephedra or mu huang, aspirin (willow bark), etc.

The stack without the ephedra doesn't give the thermogenic effect. Basically it is caffeine and bitter orange, etc. The caffeine will give you energy, and the other ingredients can help, but not the same as the old stuff.

Wish I could use the old stack - great way to cut up - my belly needs it now. LOL.

bump bufforCU. I used ripped fuel when it had epherda in it but now i think it is worthless. I could be wrong but from what ive read and heard from buddies is nothing great. I did u redline a little here and there but nothing is the same

" if you Wanted to Loss That Height......."

WTF?!?! am i the only one who he confused the hell out of?

**BuffforCU** · September 4th, 2005, 08:57 AM

Too funny - who wants to lose height. I'm 6 foot, but rather be 5 foot 7. Just a typo - he meant lose that weight.

supercooper · September 12th, 2005, 09:20 PM

there is some ephedra products that just slipped through the cracks and got put away.
The ban was overturned however don't look for a great deal of companies to jump back on board. So many main manufactors went out of business when the ban went in.

Sorry for the spelling, i was the first one out in the spelling B!

fozz · September 15th, 2005, 04:51 PM

There are some companies selling ripped fuel with ephedra. It looks like it was the left over stock from the ban. Just do a search for it. I think it still should be good.

maacky · November 3rd, 2005, 05:16 PM

I would be interested in buying some Ripped Fuel with ephedra - but I searched online and cannot find anything. Any links or leads?

Hey everyone.. I'm new here and I'm thinking I don't know much about extreme fitness, I came to this site to learn more. But I have been working out: Doing cardio, weight training. At first, I didn't care much about it, I only wanted to look good for my photo shoots. But, as soon as I started to see muscle, and sexy curves that I didn't know I even had, I was addicted. Until now, I am finally paying attention to what I am doing not because I have to look good, but because it's actually fun... lol call me nuts. Anyway I totally went off the subject... Since the beginning I have been taking Ripped Fuel and without it I notice I am not active as much in the Gym, It just gets my body all hot and pumped up, plus I can lift a lot better and stay focused. It help burned the fat off my body so my muscles were more defined and lol chiseled... Anyone can get those results, but by taking Ripped Fuel It's much fast results.. Another Favorite of mine is Oxygrene...

xbox_vixen2711 · November 3rd, 2005, 09:08 PM

Maybe it's just me... But Ephedra makes me have really bad anxiety, you should give Ripped Fuel a try even if does not contain Ephedra, you really notice the difference. YOu don't feel so shakey all the bad effects of ephdra, but it works just as good without the jittery feeling... but thats just me

**PythonPower** · November 5th, 2005, 02:44 AM

there are no "bad" effects of ephedra! just like anything else, just like milk, peanuts, aspirin, coffee, not everything is for everyone! its idiots out there who gave it a bad name and for which we all have to suffer because of that ratbastard who died after overdosing himself on it!
