DS Craze Review (Driven Sports)

First off, I have been way excited for this pre-workout, and all that it was hyped up to be.  It is supposed to be "Craze"y good at helping with focus during a workout, and from what I have read a lot of people didn't notice much of a good pump at all, but loved the ability to focus. 

 First things first, This stuff is pretty nasty.  I got the grape flavor, and its basically bad artificial grape medicine flavored.  Mixes very easily even with a spoon though.

My dosage is usually 1.5 scoops.  I do have some weird reactions I have never had with any other pre-workout with this stuff though.  If I take it too late in the day, I can fall asleep at night, wake up about an hour later, and feel not tired at all.  I then toss and turn for up to 4 hours some nights, because my brain is jst wide awake.   On one occasion I have also taken 2.5 scoops in a day, 1 in the morning, and 1.5 preworkout with another scoop of Beta-cret just for some beta-alanine and some more caffeine, and I had Horrid Headaches that kept me up for 4 to 5 hours into the night.

But all that tells me, is that this actually is very strong stuff, and not severely under-dosed like most products on the market.

This product at one time was also controversial just like the Jack3d. One report can be seen here, 

and the actual lawsuit can be seen here

Basically the first version of Craze was maybe spiked with synthetic amphetamines, but then a reformulation happened, and nothing has been heard about the lawsuit since March 2012.  So maybe the original Craze had it in it, maybe it didn't... Basically a lot of people like this because it does feel very similar to Adderall (amphetamines)

I also found this very interesting article thanks to Patrick Arnold. Another great resource here.

And here is a few more pics if you want to read the label. But I would jsut go to www.getds.com

 So far I really like this for workout out, but it makes sleeping suck if you take it later in the day. But other than that, Its really good ESPECIALLY if you have a hard time focusing in the gym.

Thanks for reading!!
