DMAA
DMAA aka 1,3-dimethylamylamine, methylhexanamine, dimethylamylamine, or sometimes marketed as geranium extract, is a synthetic stimulant chemically classified as an aliphatic amine and indirect sympathomimetic (similar in action to amphetamines)
It was originally developed and patented by Eli Lilly in the 1940s and marketed as an inhaled nasal decongestant under the name Forthane
It re-emerged in the late 90s00s and became popular in the fitness and bodybuilding communities as an ingredient in dietary supplements, particularly pre-workout formulas, fat burners, and performance enhancers where users reported it boosted energy and focus enhanced athletic performance, supported weight loss and acted as an appetite suppressant
It is banned by the World Anti-Doping Agency, many sports organizations, and the U.S. Department of Defense (prohibited for military personnel)
Its mechanism involves norepinephrine release and effects on dopamine transporters, producing stimulant-like effects (some studies show it can substitute for cocaine or methamphetamine in research subjects
Research application
Copied from the handbook as research notes. and not instructions.
The original formula of Jack3d (the classic pre-workout popular in the 2000s before the DMAA ban) contained 1,3-DMAA (1,3-dimethylamylamine) as a key stimulant ingredient, but it was never explicitly listed with an exact milligram amount on the label
Estimates for DMAA content in the original Jack3d typically range from 25 mg to 75 mg per scoop, with many sources converging around 25-50 mg per single scoop
Some lab-tested or speculated figures put it closer to 25 mg per scoop (explaining why people often dosed 2-3 scoops for stronger effects, equating to 50-150 mg total DMAA)
Unless other wise noted intermuscular (IM) peptides are commonly administered via subcutaneous (SQ) injection with 30-31 gauge syringes
