USP Labs recently and officially made a return over in Europe, or essentially everywhere in the world except for here in the US. The resurrected brand has brought its legendary name back to life with two supplements to start in the Jack3d Pre-Workout and the Jack3d Energy Drink. Many will remember Jack3d for its potent, hard-hitting energy and focus ability thanks to the incomparable 1,3-dimethylamylamine, better known as DMAA.
The Jack3d Pre-Workout that is now available in Europe obviously doesn’t have DMAA, due to rules and regulations, but the formula is still solid. The maximum serving packs 6g each of straight citrulline and beta-alanine for plenty of pumps and performance, an intense 390mg of Zynamite, 3g of creatine, and 390mg of caffeine. There have been a lot of comments about the fact that the resurrected USP Labs isn’t using the original formula, and the brand itself has responded.
“I’ve been seeing the online discourse, the memes, the straight-up disappointment, and yeah… I feel like I owe you an apology. My bad, bros. I know you want the OG formula back. Trust me, I get it. But that stuff? Super not legal anymore. And I’m really not trying to get arrested, again.
Back then was a different era. It was legendary. Like, objectively insane.
What’s wild though is that after all that chaos, we’re still here. Same community. Same energy. Same bros. Time’s weird like that. We grew up, but the bond didn’t dip. That’s kinda beautiful, not gonna lie. But yeah, we gotta evolve. Can’t live in 2010 forever, even if that formula went stupid hard.
So no illegal substances, no OG formula (even though, yes, I’d absolutely love to). This is the hardest formula I could drop without getting arrested, in multiple countries. Like that Zynamite stuff is pretty neat gotta say.”
USP Labs is clearly speaking from the heart and saying it would love to bring that DMAA-fueled performance back to life, but due to legal reasons, it is not possible. The brand is actually being pretty candid with its response, not denying the fact that it would love to have the original on the market again. It’s a great sign that the heart of USP Labs is still very much there, and if there is any way to offer a similar experience, it will work to do so.
