ROCKET SCIENCE
ROCKET SCIENCE® Performance Intensifier
One of the perks of working at MUSCLE INSIDER magazine is we get to try the latest supplements before they hit store shelves. Companies send us them for free almost every single day which makes working here so much fun! In fact, we’ve had so many products sent to our offices in Toronto and Vancouver that we’re stocked better than most supplement stores. No kidding! Pre-workout powders, fat burners, nitric oxide stimulators, energy shots, bars, RTDs, protein powders, MRPs, test boosters, gainers, sleep products, vitamins, you name it. We’re the supplement lab rats who are willing to try it all!
So our friends over at MAGNUM sent us a prototype version of their new product they’ve called “ROCKET SCIENCE” which they've labeled as a Performance Intensifier. Yes, that’s the product name and descriptor of what it does! It came to us with no labels, no bottle, no brochures or formula details other than a message to try this before your next workout with a stapled baggie with 3 unmarked capsules in it that the bag labelled "1 serving". Was I intrigued? YES! Scared to try it? No way! All I knew about it was that it’s designed to be taken pre-workout and that I would be one of the very first people to try it.
ROCKET SCIENCE EXPERIENCE
So the day I took it, I had a really long day as I was packing for my vacation and I had been cutting calories for the last few weeks to help tighten up my abs for summer, or what’s still left of it! You know how weak you get when cut down for too long and keep doing cardio every day and eating crap like egg whites day in and day out! So needless to say, I didn’t feel much like training, but as usual I sucked it up and decided to head to the gym to train shoulders anyway. I popped three capsules of the ROCKET SCIENCE product they sent me with a couple of glasses of water right before I left my house. I was hoping for a kick of energy or a better pump but I ended up getting more!
ROCKET SCIENCE = ROCKET FUEL
Almost instantly I started to feel alert. I can’t quite put my finger on it but the best way to describe the initial feeling I got from it was that, it felt like I got an injection shot of ambition. My mind automatically focused on the task at hand and I became fixated on my workout, almost a tunnel vision feeling. Just 15 minutes prior to swallowing the 3 pills, I was thinking about skipping weights and just doing cardio, now I wanted to be there, I needed to lift! My energy levels began to rise substantially and the intensity of my sets and reps increased. This was beyond a jolt of caffeine. This felt different. I was training with a purpose and it wasn’t just the visions of the summer beaches I was training for. I had tons of energy and mental focus!
Now I didn’t set any new PR’s that day or lift more than I ever have in my life. But from a raw performance standpoint, I had an amazing workout with no crash at the end and the only supplement I was on that afternoon was ROCKET SCIENCE. This product made a great first impression and I’m excited to try the second sample they sent. I don’t know what’s in it, but it’s definitely got stimulants in it and plenty of them! As I find out more I’ll let you know.
