" ... FINALLY! I've been seeing the ads in the magazine for the past few months talking about something new from MRI. This sounds extremely promising to say the least. I am currently on black powder and war and it's, in my case, the best pre and post workout combo to date. I've tried Gaspari, BSN, MHP, Muscletech, MAP.. MRI is the one that works the best for me.
Really psyched about this one.. let's bring it on baby! "
02-24-2009 20:32:53 [ Teddy ]
" ... I agree man, I'm pysched too. When MRI says you'll get results you will, and they don't ridiculously hyperbole their products like MuscleTech. Not all of their products are A+ class, but at least most are quality (Black Powder, Anabolic Switch). Anyway can't wait for it. "

" ... Im down to try it but what does it actually do and is it hormonal? Becuase i know you are suposed to take it 2 hours after last meal on empty stomach. Im wondering if its hormonal? "

" ... just started taking the supplement about a week ago, and haven't noticed much yet except getting more of a pump while working out...we'll see if it will increase strength within the next week or so "
03-11-2009 15:01:10 [ Dustin ]
" ... My question is on the dosing. It says to take 1 1/2 hours before working out and then says to take every other day before going to bed or right when you wake up. So which one is it? "
03-12-2009 19:45:52 [ Rick ]
" ... In the literature I have from inside the package it actually says 1 1/2 to 2 hours before training, and on off days at night two hours after last meal OR in the morning 2 hours before first meal. The reason is that fiber inhibits absorption of Tex-OE. "
03-13-2009 05:20:55 [ Everett ]
" ... Dosing is up to the individual. You can take 2 in the morning, 2 at night, 1 in the morning/1 at night. I personally take 1 in the morning/1 at night every other day. The research on this product is VERY promising with over 100 different research articles and science behind how it works in the body which back up the claims. It has nothing to do with hormones and is involved in protein synthesis. The functional proteins in your blood are what act as the transportation system of the amino acids to the muscle tissue to be utilized. What prickly pear extract does is excite these functional proteins to perform this process VERY rapidly allowing for faster and more efficient utilization of the dietary amino acids. This results in increased growth and repair of muscle tissue and also since your body is composed primarily of protein also helps in proper cell development and immune system function. This product is going to be huge for the individuals who aren't into messing with T-enhancers. "

" ... i think hsp active is the best sounding product ive ever heard of since the invention of creatine. i ve been on it for about a week now. It has increased my appetite, gave me a better pump and is slightly helping with my recovery ive only had 2 workouts with it so far. I also sweat alot more with it "
03-27-2009 19:13:49 [ Richard ]
" ... Really happy with the result so far, hsp active is the first MRI product that I have used and I am going to look into the rest of their product line. Overall I rate it a 4/5 as it's only been a few weeks. I'll post back later with a more complete review with actual results and side-effects (if any). "
03-30-2009 09:18:28 [ Spencer ]
" ... Yo Rich what do you notice, is it stength, recovery, size. I'm asking cause i want to try it but i want to know how it works for a cycle or so? "
04-01-2009 16:34:05 [ Woods ]
" ... I just purchased HSP Active yesterday and took my first dose as I went to bed on an empty stomach (3 caps). I will keep you all posted on my results as well. I am a huge fan of MRI products and they are the only supplement company I will support outside of your protein powders, multi-vitamins, etc. I have been taking NO2Black, CE2 Hi-Def and Black Powder for 3 months now and have seen substantial results. MRI's products are very good. I find most of them to be snake pee and always apprehensive when I buy them. Tonight will be my first workout with the HSP Active in my system so as mentioned before…………I will keep you all posted as I move forward. On a side note- MRI’s product specialist are very knowledgeable, no sales pressure or hype and usually provide value when you talk with them. "
04-18-2009 13:11:17 [ Spindle ]
" ... Been on HSP for about 14 days now, i have noticed an increase in hunger and sweating. Other than that no major weight gains..... any suggustions "
04-19-2009 18:49:57 [ Spencer ]
" ... They say by the end of the bottle is when the effects really start i would finish it up if you like the results get a second one, if not stop it. But as with all mri products its usually the second bottle after it fully loads where the crazy results come. "
04-24-2009 08:05:54 [ Forza ]
" ... DAMN! Works.. and works well!!! I've also tried the muscletech HSP product and it's nothing compared to the MRI version, and that's my personal opinion. I am also stacking WAR for post workout with good results.
Overall.. I think HSP is the next big thing.. along the lines of creatine when it was first discovered. "
04-24-2009 08:07:53 [ Mike, OH ]
" ... Just placed my order.. really pumped about trying this out. From the literature on heat shock activation of proteins this seems to be really exciting. Anyways, I'll post back full updates when it arrives!
Previous experience with MRI products is the Black Powder and MRI WAR items.. which have really helped with the workouts over the past month or so. "
04-24-2009 12:59:45 [ Woods ]
" ... Spindle- I’m thinking I’m with you. I’ve been taking 3 tabs every other day and have finished my first 3 weeks. Sweating is the common one for me. Not sure I’m seeing any serious image effects at this point. I did go ahead and buy my second box and was going to continue to give it an honest try. No strength increase, no vascularity increase, not much of anything except a dripping wet shirt when I’m done. My protein intake per grams per day has been averaging around 300. I’ll keep you posted. "
05-04-2009 23:41:31 [ Jeri ]
" ... I bought 2 boxes to try to give a honest attempt. I've noticed the increase sweating but my appetite has stayed the same. My strength has increased but there are other factors (rest, diet, training). I'm about to start taking my box. MRI is a good company.... "
05-07-2009 13:14:26 [ Spindle ]
" ... I finished my first box and saw no results except sweating alot....not real sure what went wrong but im about to start my second box and hopefully will see results. "
05-09-2009 16:41:03 [ Bob ]
" ... before i started this product i was just starting to put 270 lbs on the bench repping about 3-5 times. after my first box and starting the second i recently just put on some weight and i am now REPPING 295 LBS 6-8 TIMES. its crazy and im stoked im getting stronger by the day. "
05-10-2009 00:42:13 [ Johnny ]
" ... I agree with Bob! I seem to lift heavier now when on this then just on NO pre workouts! At the moment am not even using any pre wrkout sup.I don't even feel fatigue at all in the gym. Great product! "
05-12-2009 11:35:45 [ Spencer ]
" ... Spindle it might have not workout becuase you are supposed to take it without having any fiber containing foods or products within two hours before and after in order to work consistently, and obviously have a good protein shake after to help repair the hsps, you should be drinking a lot of water and eating good food too, trust me it works well if you take it right my friend is on it and loves it and he takes it as directed, call the company they will prolly be able to pin point where you are going wrong. "
05-13-2009 15:57:22 [ josh ]
" ... ive been taking hsp for a few weeks now and it has made a pretty big diff in my program. im getting alot stronger and ive been putting on weight to, and not sloppy weight. i havent been sweating as much as everyone else says but i would have to say if your going to try a product and you want results then take this. "
05-16-2009 17:07:11 [ Jon ]
" ... Ive been reading alot abut this product and im liking what im reading.I plan on purchasing this ASAP. im trying to get my powerlifting career off.Myself and my coach from Lexen Xtreme,are now using they Prowler and Sled...and let me tell you<if u havent tried either one of thos things..there tough. But this is just what i need to get my numbers raising. "
06-01-2009 00:53:40 [ MASSIVEDONIAN ]
" ... AMAZING!! I'm from down under (Australia) and we hardly get any good stuff.. Finally something that works! I was very sceptical at first but these are my results.. Dropped fat and looking more defined but the scales have increased. Feeling very warm when taken and during training. Endurance has increased and still feeling energetic post training. Smaller connective muscles usually sore have been completely repaired and feel elastic, strong and loose. This is my favourite.. Recovery is through the roof!! Failure upon failure with drop sets, sepersets, X-reps etc is leaving me fuller and harder yet not tearing with pain with every movement. Fully recovering almost 2 days earlier than before! Love the product!!!
GO HARD OR GO HOME!

" ... I have taken it for a month and have gained probably 6 pounds of lean muscle so something is working. However i have some questions after reading the book that maybe some of you could help me with.
So if HSP helps testosterone win the war against Cortisol, would it be logical to take a testosterone supplement?
Would taking a BCAA supplement help with the 72 hours that HSP Active works.
"
07-05-2009 23:03:03 [ Spencer ]
" ... As far as test goes HSP Active is not hormonal but it does help block cortisol by flushing out the dead proteins so it would be good to stack it with a test supplement, and BCAA;s are perfect to take with it because the book actually suggests glutamine and bcaa's after workout while on it because your body will need more as there are more hsp's working in the body to repair itself. "

" ... hey spencer, do you have a link where they talk about stacking with test and bcaa's? i would love to read about it. im having a hard time finding such stacking results by myself. thanks!!! "
Spencer's answer ..
naw man but its easy to find that out just research it online its all there.
No Pain no Gain.'s answer ..
Hey guy's just to let you all know you can actually purchase a Tex-oe supplement at 1/4th the cost as MRI's price. A company called Source Natural sell's a product called Nopal Endurance which has the same exact patented Tex-oe; Prickly pear extract. For a bottle of 30 caps 10 bucks!!! Dont get me wrong MRI makes great products but your all getting robbed. Check it out for yourself, do a little research and save yourself some money in this rough economy.

" ... Just wake up 2 hours before you would normally wake up, take two tabs, and then go back to sleep. Because the active ingredient that causes increased protein synthesis will attach itself to any fiber that you eat rendering it "non bio available" meaning your body doesn't have the enzymes necessary to break it down and utilize it. "

" ... Hi everybody.. I am thinking of starting a box of HSP Active. But I take a protein drink about 45 minutes before a workout and immediately afterwards. I eat about every 3 hours.
As far as using it the only time I can take it is in the middle of the night. That is the only time I have not eaten for two hours before and will not be eating it afterwards until the morning.
Has anyone used this product this way ?
I weight 220 lbs with 12% fat level. Want to cut up a little and out on another 10 pounds of muscle by spring. Any recommendation ?
Happy lifting to all.. "
Hi Def's answer ..
Ive been using this supplement the exact way you described> My caloric intake is around 3500 and ill be damned if i have to try to cram all that in on a day if I have to not eat for 4 hours of it. It works beautifully. My repair process is far beyond what I had ever expected. You have to make sure to take your workout to failure though. YOu need to signal some shock that would require a lot of repair on your system to make sure it does what it does to the fullest. The only downside I have with it is that you cant take caffeine within 4 hours (I think, might be 6). I am heavily stimulant dependant in the early hoursa of my day, which are around 4am because of a job I have opening a gym. But other than that, I would give this product 2 thumbs up.

" ... Hi,I just needed to find out if you had to be at about 200lbs to start taken the HSP Active.Also can anyone tell me about taken USP Labs PRIME. Is it safe to take both of them? "
James Bora's answer ..
Yea dude im 16 years old, i asked my doctor and med science teacher about this stuff, they both looked into it and all the ingredients and cant find anything bad about it, even the guys at the gnc places said its pretty safe, just make sure u have an intense workout schedule and follow the rules on the box, i consider trying P90X with it im ripped as hell, and havent worked out in 3 months , just started again on sunday and feeling good
