Ripped Freak Review
When looking at a product’s effectiveness, I think it is important to ask “How much must I do to achieve the results I want?” As an avid exerciser myself, I love the program presented in Ripped Freak. This doesn’t mean that the product works though, and one must ask, “Is it the workout routine, or the supplements that I am taking?”
Ripped Freak Ingredients
At first glance, Ripped Freak seems to be full of synthetic chemicals due to the names.
- -Epigallocatechin-3-0-(3-0-Methyl)gallate Ester
- -Epigallocatechin-3-0-(4-0-Methyl)gallate Ester
- -4′-0-Methyl-Epigallocatechin-3-0-Gallate Ester
- -Epigallocatechin-3-0-(3,4-0-Methyl)gallate Ester (EGCG 3′ ‘4′ ‘diMe)
- 1,3-D™ (1,3-Dimethylamylamine Hydrochloride) (Geranium Extract)
- 1,3,7-Trimethyl-1H-Purine-2,6(3H,7H)-Dione Methyl Gallate (Caffeine-Gallic Acid)
- Red Pepper Ester Stack (CH-19 Sweet Red Pepper Extract)
- 4-Hydroxy-3-Methoxybenzyl (E)-8-Methyl-6-Nonenoate Ester
- 4-Hydroxy-3-Methoxybenzyl 8-Methyl-Nonanoate Ester
- 4-Hydroxy-3-Methoxybenzyl 7-Methyl-Octanoate Ester
- 4-(4-Hydroxyphenyl)-2-Methyl Ethyl Ketone (RAZBERI-K™/Raspberry Ketone)
- 4-(4-Hydroxyphenyl)-2-Butanone Methyl Gallate Ester (Raspberry Ketone-Gallic Acid)
But a little research shows that they are nothing more than scientific or chemical names for ingredients. This is actually not a bad thing and is quite relieving.
Further analysis of these ingredients to come in the near future.
Ripped Freak Side Effects
The primary side effects of Ripped Freak include dizziness, nausea, and restlessness. This is due to caffeine. RippedFreak doesn’t disclose the amount of caffeine used, but we estimate it’s between 250 and 300mg (typical of the bodybuilding genre of diet pills). That the equivalent of 2.5-3 cups of coffee. So if you’re sensitive to caffeine, be careful.
Does Ripped Freak work well enough to buy?
Ripped Freak seems to be targeting an advanced audience — mainly those who are serious about body building. When looking at supplements that target these individuals, they are focusing on a small group of people, and you should consider whether or not you are in the group.
I am inconclusive on my recommendation of this product, so please don’t take this to be a positive or a negative review. But, If you’re not sensitive to caffeine, Ripped Freak may be worth trying. But as with any diet pill, don’t expect miraculous results – just slow and sure progress.

I took this pill and I almost died. I was at the hospital for two days. My hearth was going so fast. My electrocardiogram was not normal.
I actually am taking it, i started 2 days ago and i am supposed to take 1 pill when i wake and 1 in middle afternoon for the first week. Then in the second week take 2 before my work out. Cycle this for 1 moth. But i took my first one 2 days ago and it made me feel soooo dizzy . I thought it was normal but i didnt take the afternoon one. Since then i only take the 1 after waking up and i still feel really dizzy for the next 4-5 hours after takin it . I suggest you be careful with this product , it seems to be extra powerful.
I also just started taking this product and had the same side affects, I took one in the morning, and then again in the afternoon and I left so uptight and sick. Very shaky. I did not fall asleep till 5:00AM the next day.
Its a very strong product so use it with caution.
on my first day i took 1 pill in the am then 1 in the afternoon( 5 hrs later) i could not sleep my heart was racing so bad i was sweating. i didnt go to the hospital. thismorning (my second day) i did not take it and my heart is still beating abnormally fast!!!
Only take this pill if your used to fat burners like hydroxycut of have a high caffiene tolerance.
I took this also.
I only took one cap and thought I’d have to go to the ER.
Heart through the roof.
Sick, dizzy.
Was in the bathroom for over an hour.
One of the scariest products I’ve ever taken, it should be banned.
I think what I reacted to was the yohimbine in the product.
It sounds like this is something a lot of other people are reacting to.
STAY AWAY FROM THIS STUFF!!!
i personally found that if I do not drink a minimum for 4 litres of water a day with it then i was in an angered state
Well I can’t say that this almost killed me like the rest of you. I’m on my second day and am feeling good. Now I only take 1 pill in the morning and that’s it. I have tried other products like this and found that the afternoon dose would keep me up all night. What you have to watch out for with this product is make sure you drink lots of water! I have been drinking about a glass of water an hour and still feel a bit dry.
I started taking this feb 13. I agree you do feel very energized while your on them but I havent had the dizzyness or sleep issue. I felt nausious the first day but later realized it was because i was taking those “one a day” multi-vitamins.
You cannot take this product on an empty stomach! You cannot diet on this product! Eat normally this product intensifies your workout energy. you will experience all these negative symtoms if you dont eat! You dont get ripped by starving yourself. You get it by working hard. 100% in 100% out. and eat!!!!
guys ive read tons of reviews about this, I started this last wednesday.. I havent had any symptooms.
I agree with some posts, drink lots of water, DO NOT take it on your off days believe me the amounts of energy you get and not putting it to use, does not coexist well with the human body.
Take one pill 30-60 mins before your work out
I have gained tremendous energy and strength, my work outs are much better and feeling my body lean out.. So seriously guys take my advice and Im sure you wont feel these weird dizzy symtpons.. and you got to remember that some people dont work well with these kinds of things,
only wait to know if it will for you is if you try it, ask for a sample at the store most nurtrition places will be more then happy to give you a few.
Well I hope this helps some people out,
And I recommend you take one 30 day cycle and thats it, not good to be on anything much longer then that because your body gets used to it and it becomes in effective, also with the amount of energy it has, I think its a safer way to go in all honesty..
I have read lots of reviews about it like over 100, and of that I read 7 or so that werent good, so you can see this is good..
this is not made by a nutrition company, its made from doctors a group of bio chemists.. the main ingredient is green tea , thats why you go to the bathroom lots…
Anyways thats it for me, Ill post after 30 days to tell my results
Hope it works out for whoever tries, it, I recommend it
After reading the comments on this product I feel people are not understanding how a supplement like this works. This is for people serious about working out and understand what they are doing. With any supplement it is best to start of taking half of what is recomended primarly if you are just starting to take working out and dieting serious. This product is a great product to use but only for people at advanced levels.
In addition, andrew is right, do not take it on a empty stomach, make sure your drinking lots of water at least 8-10 glasses and you must work out when you take this product. It is not something you take to suppress your hungery it is for a intensified work out and faster results. Key thing here is you must work out!!!
do not expect results if your lazy and want a pill to do the work. you may lose weight but if your not learning from it, as soon as you stop the pill dont be suprised if all of it comes back and more.
I have been taking ripped freak for about 3 days now. Im a 140lbs. , 5′7 female. I am doing about 1 hour of cardio and about 1/2 hour of various muscle training a day, and have been on the same workout routine for about 3 weeks. My first day of taking ripped freak, I noticed that I did have a bit more energy than usual and was able to do a harder workout. I did experience dizziness but it wasnt bad enough to stop me from taking them. Now on my thrid day, I notice that I am having a complete opposite effect. I took my second dose at about 5 o’clock pm, and at 8:30pm Im feeling unbelievablly exhausted and I dont even want to get out of my chair. I feel so weak and have absolutely NO energy. I phoned the supplement store and they told me it was probably my 600 cal./day diet and the fact that I am taking no vitamins that would be causing this. I advise anyone taking this to follow the meal plan and take a multivit!
I have been taking this for 10 days now, take exactly as said and even started on 2 pills a day…Lets put it this way…I dont have increased energy, im not pushing heavier weight, im sleeping fine, im not loosing weight, i dont have the feeling that you guys above are mentioning… in fact i havent felt any different…. just a little more tired at the end of the day.. waste of money so far…
This thing is insane… You definitely have to build up to it. Start by taking just a little bit and build up tolerance gradually. Eat lots, drink lots of water and dont take it if you’re not gonna give it 100% in a workout.
I would like to say that I am currently on my second day of training with “Ripped Freak” and so far so good. I feel fine with no negative side effects. For those who are experienceing negative side effects take into consideration the ammount of water you are intaking throughout the day. It does if i am not mistaken say somewhere on the box “drink approximately 10 glasses of 8 ounces of water a day”. Now i dont have a box infront of me so thats not verbatim, but just make sure you read through warning ad directions BEFORE you start taking supplements. Some of ths stuff isnt for just any typical person; its designed for Hardcore Athletes or Bodybuilders, just people whom are avid weightlifters and not just for someone looking to lose a few pounds to fit in a dress before a wedding. Ripped Freak is also said to increase Epinephrine by 300%. Epinephrine is just a fancy word for “adrenaline” so that could explain the side affects of having increases heart rates and raises levels of anger. If you do experience any negative side effects id recommend stopping the use of the product and consulting a physician to verify your not endangering yourself by taking this product.
I just started taking it this morning 30 minutes before my work out on an empty stomach and it did increase the intensity of my work out and I feel great 10 hours later. So just try a sample and see if its for you. Hopefully i can loose a couple pounds off my mid section from using this and working out
is anyones urine a weird colour after taking this stuff? like flourescent? cause mine is and it wierds me the fuck out.
I took 1 capsule of ripped freak in the AM yesterday as directed on box. 1/2 later, had a complex carb, light breakfast, then hit the gym for an hour of cardio. Had a great time with it. All day, I was drinking water like mad. It’s like I wasn’t thirsty, but had an immense craving for water. Also, urinating more frequently than I ever had before, like every 1/2 hour to 45 min. I went to bed early, as I felt more tired than I usually did on a workout day.
Then Hell started. The most real feeling vivid dreams I’ve ever experienced. Not fun ones either. Extremely disturbing. Do not want to go to that place again. I’m not saying Ripped Freak caused the subject matter in my dreams. All I know is I started usind Ripped Freak as directed yesterday, and last night was bad enough to make me decide to stop.
That’s my story, hope yours is better.
I have taken 2 of these pills and am so sick. I have sweats, vomiting and the shakes. I have thrown the whole bottle out and am hoping I will be okay tomorrow.
i took it for 3 weeks a year ago, two pills a day like suggested. it gives me energy, and it makes me not hungary at all. i get nautious about 2 hours after taking em, and my heart starts pounding. i had to stop last year because it gave me crazy anger, especially road rage. it made me so angry, but now that im aware of that, i take only one pill a day now for a boost of energy and to control my appitite. it also makes me a little hot some times, like real warm and sweaty… it makes my pee glow in the dark too. but i like the energy.
Ripped freak is a great product, but may be dangerous if you are not using it correctly.
If your new to this product, I recommend trying a pill once a day for a few days to accommodate the boost in energy and the increase in adrenaline. It is a must to drink a lot of water. Water will help you cycle the ingredients from the product more effectivly in your body. It is also very important to eat the right food periodically for best results and to decrease the probablity for any side effects.
Great supplement overall. 9/10.
I started taking 1 pill in the morning and 2 in the afternoon 60 min. before i worked out. I exceeded more than 2 a day but I believe that when taking this supplements u need to study ur body first. Ask urself if u have health problems. Expect that this is not normal bcoz ur taking in something ur body is not used to. Some people complain with the side effects but pls. read the directions first. Just b careful i guess.
Hey ! Hi all , im on my 3rd week of this product , i have lost most than 17% of fat , my weith was 290 befor i started the product and now im 260 with a body fat of 21% , im wondering if its dangerous to continue it after a month ? thank you
I am now half way through the bottle and just can’t suffer it out anymore working out and almost passing out after each set is crazy im not at all sensitive to caffeine its makes yah wonder whats in it ! ive taken alot of supplements and this one is bad Ive sold it to all customers and they too couldnt take it and are giving it away
Ive been cycling on and of with this stuff for a year now i also stack it with 40 mg of ephedrine and i get great results i take one pill with ephedrine 30 min before working out. I have unlimited energy and stamina my workouts are alway great and i don’t think Ive ever sweat as much in the gym. when on it i lose .2 to .4 % body fat a day it is intense and you have to no your body and heart because Ive had to take a min and relax because my heart was working overboard you just have to be careful and you will get great results.I also go to the gym 6 times a week i wouldn’t recommend this for someone that is just starting out or doesn’t have a strong heart.
Before you take this product, you must understand that it is a niche supplement. If you just woke up today and said, “I am going to get in shape.” or you are looking for a ‘magic’ pill to help you lose weight INSTEAD of dedicating yourself to a complete lifestyle change THIS IS NOT FOR YOU. With that said, if you are one of the rarer of the population, definition not necessary because you know if you are, than this my be for you.
I have cycled on-and-off his product several time with very good results. Granted, my body fat hovers around 8 percent, it gives me a mental edge when really ramping up my anaerobic and HIIT cardio for competition. It is a very good, if not one of the best, products of its type FOR THOSE FEW WHO CAN BENEFIT FROM IT. You know who you are.
Caution: if you do not have excellent cardiovascular health you should be very weary of taking ANY “fat burning” product for the exact reasons the other people here have listed. If you spend all day in the gym, you may not have the right cardiovascular health for any product like this.
People who will benefit from this product won’t even research it because they already know. If you are researching it, it may not be for you. Better advice: change your diet and lifestyle. If not, nothing will ever help you. When you do and you are ready, then try it.
i take one in the morning and two 1hr before i workout its pretty intense no sideeffects what so ever. Workout 2hrs a day 5 days a week been taking for 2 weeks now.
i just started taking this product. i’m not sure how well it works yet, but i have been using hydroxycut hardcore before this, and this defntely seems stronger. hopefully i won’t have to go to the er or anything like that.
This is my week #5 taking this product. Started taking 1 pill in the morning and 1 in the afternoon. On the second week I did 2 in the morning only and so on… like I have said… week # 5 and I have lost 20 pounds… my workouts are full of energy and I have not detected ABSOLUTELY NOTHING WRONG… I hardly sweat at the gym now and the amazing thing is reading all this “horror” stories about it… I don’t even drink coffee on regular basis, so I am not used to caffeine!!!!…
True, stick with the diet, train your butt off and drink lots of water… I am doing a cycle of 8 weeks on and 2 off AS RECOMMENDED on the website. So far… don’t feel anything but I am loosing inches like crazy!!!!!
Good luck!!!!!
First time i took used this product i got the shakes .Felt like i had to go for a workout. I now take it once a day 45min-1hr before my workout gives me alot more energy and i no im burning more fat then the guy next to me! I train twice a day, 1 1/2hrs or intense cardio around 11 or 12 o’clock then weight training for the same time at 5/6 o’clock. I was 83 kg’s 2months ago now im at 75 and have RIPPED abs! This product has helped me alot!
I have been taking Ripped Freak and a whey protein shake for just over a week now gotta say the first time I took it I was shaky and Im used to drinking coffee all day. The second pill I took I was completely normal but with more energy. I work out everynight only a half hour walk and some weights and I have lost a total of 4 lbs per weekso far. I dont have any side effects whether I take it on an empty stomach or not and I havent cut down on my coffee:( Its a bad addiction but whatever. If your not heart healthy dont take it. All that will happen is another weight loss product banned for no good reason and there will be no hope for people who need extra help loosing weight it will be a world of super obesity with no help other than trying to eat healthy food that is contaminted with pesticides anyhow.
i just started taking this and im on my second day and i was wondering if u have to do cardieo on it couse my legs feel like they can go for runs for none stop i did feel a lil bit of the side of facts but they worn that bad iv bin working out for almost 3years now i have a good work out routine so if someone can just msg back on this about cardieo that wood be good and iv have started taking more piss then before but that a good thing
Im not used to caffeine and 2nd day on these and i feel great! i took one, definetly increased energy, slightly light headed but its fine, im drinking loads of water and my apetite has decreased. i feel so motivated to excersise, its incredible. im going to stick with a good diet including lots of veges and protein and will try post with results
I’m Korean guy, and I know it has many side effect that I saw from Korean reviw website.. I’m amature korean bodybuilder. I’ve been taken Syanta-6, BCAA, Glutamine, Animal paks… I’m sufferring dizziness, and insomnia. I heard Ripeed freak was made for western guy who has good metabolisom,,, Do you guys think Ripped freak is good for Asian??? Please E-mail me.. I’m serious about it…
But 1thing is clear… I’ve been losing more than 5pounds since I took it (I started took it 5days ago..)….
Please forgive about my spell, and grammar,, Im just English starter.,…. Email me…
Okay, Im a 22 yr old female and weight about 135, I bought this product to try to help me in my process of losing some pounds..
after reading all these reviews I was terified to take these pills and was going to take them back.
I tried them and they are fantastic.
Please dont listen to all the bad reviews you need to try it for yourself.
You need to make sure you take your pill in the morning as soon as you wake up on an empty stomach with a huge glass of waterr!!!!!!!
Wait an hr, then go workout and you should feel energized while working out and after!
Make sure you drink tons of water during the day though!
I have not taken 2 pills yet, but I will next week.
This is a great product everyone… use it wisely and work out hard!
After reading all the negative comments above I am honestly in shock! I am on my third day of using this product and have felt NO negative side effects. I have been following a similar diet plan as given with the ripped freak pills and consume the proper amount of water every day and so far this product is awesome! I have intense energy while working out and feel as if I can push myslef a lot harder than usual. I really dont understand how one could feel like they are “dieing” and rush to the ER after digesting these pills. TWO thumbs up for ripped freak! WOO!!
I have been using ripped freak for about 3 weeks and in my opinion its the best fat burner I have used. All fat burners will give you side effects, therefore you must be smart enough to do research on the product before you use it. Anyone saying they had to go to the hospital was probaly not in very good shape, and probaly had health problems anyway.
I have taken this product off and on for a few months and have had great results. It is supposed to be more for a niche crowd but I am an average person getting healthier and working out to lose weight and it has still worked for me. I was warned to drink LOTS of water or will feel side effects and dry stuffed nose and that is very true. I always try to take it after I get up immediately before or after eating something otherwise I will feel nauseous and I generally keep to one pill a day unless going for a more intense day. I love the energy it gives but really do not recommend it if you are doing an extreme diet, should be eating sensibly or a healthy meal plan like the one given to get more benefits.
The first day back on the pills after 6 weeks off I was jittery but was fine right after that again.
I just started taking Ripped Freak today. I took one pill. It has made me feel a bit dizzy which is causing my stomach to be a bit upset but it is definitely managable. I was wondering if someone could tell me if these side effect decrease as the days go on? Thank you.
I am 16 going on 17 in a few days, I weigh 288 pounds. I started taking this today and I gotta say I am pleased. Most of you said it is bad and stuff I took one dosage at around 5 and wow my work out at the gym was great! Here are some tips: when taking the pill drink 2 cups of water fill ur stomach and eat some oatmeal or a protein bar. When working out start with some cardio. Mabey a bike cycle for about 15 minutes then go to the weights if ur a guy say ur doing chest start with bench press 135 pounds then move to the dumbells and lift only 25 pounds to start then do shoulder lifts with 45 pounds. Do this around 3 times then get lots of water in your system. Go back to cardio this time tred mill and jog for about 10 mins then sprint for about 30 seconds and finish by doing a bit more weight lifting. Finish by drinking a low carb low calorie protein shack. After that workout for me today I got through the rest of the day and later at night I was tired . This worked great for my first day I lost a pound already! If ur sirouse about loosing weight then use it other than that if u don’t have lots of fat too loose then yes bad symtoms do happen I also have a large tolerence for caffine so yea take this into mind and good luck to all!
I have been taking Ripped Freak for about a month or so now and I have been quite alright. The only problem I have is when I do not drink the required amount of water or eat too much I feel tried, a little dizzy, and a little sick. So if you stick to their guide you will be fine if you are not sensitive to caffeine. My results are coming along nicely. I reccomend it.
Awesome product.
I definitely recommend Ripped Freak. Here are my results using the product:
in 3 months in prep for my first natural body building show I lost approx 10-12 pounds of body fat and put on approx 5-7 pounds of lean muscle.. just 1 pill of RF gave me steady “feel good” energy though out the day with no crash. It also gave me wicked energy for my intense workouts – I was able to lift heavier and harder with my workouts. In combination with HITT training and “clean eating” I got pretty ripped.
Ripped Freak is the best fat burner on the market and also the strongest. It has worked wonders for me. All you need is one pill to give you amazing results.For anyone who is serious about losing weight and improving their energy and performance, I highly reccommend taking it. Like any fat burner, it is important to make sure that you are getting adequate fluids, and following a proper diet and training program to see best results. Ripped Freak is not for people who are sensitive to stimulants, so if you get wired from one cup of coffee, this product is not for you. Two thumbs up!!
I have read most of the reviews on Ripped Freak and lets be honest, some of them sound quite over the top REDICULOUS. How could you end up in the hospital after taking this product???? Perhaps some individuals are not following the prescribed amount? Perhaps they are not accustomed to taking a fat burner or they are mixing it with other pills/ coffee. The label CLEARLY says that it is the strongest fat burner. It does not lie! So don’t be surprised if you try it and you do feel the incredible energy boost.
I am a girl using it (I”m 30 years old) and find it to be absolutely fabulous! All of its claims are true. I’ve already noticed a difference in my bodyweight (I’ve lost a couple of pounds). It gives me tons of energy without the crash and I am able to work harder at the gym. For me it’s important to be able to lift heavier weights so that I could gain more muscle (it’s hard enough for women to gain muscle as it is) and Ripped Freak gives me the extra edge needed to get through my workouts. I take one pill everyday and that’s all I need.
I have been takin this product for 2 weeks. Day 1 first pill before breakfast made me dizzy for about 2 hrs, went to work (im a miner) and worked my butt off! with no dizziness or any other side effect. second tab at 1pm. worked my butt off again! off work at 5pm. Went to the gym around 6pm and had the craziest workout of my life! It stalled my 1st and 2nd nights sleep a couple hours but not til 6am and i definatly did not go to the ER or doctor. If your gonna take this product i would recommend that u are physically active throughout the day. Sitting around all jacked up on caffeine would make anyone feel the side effects. This product along with a proper diet and physical training has done me well this far!! would recommend this to anyone that can handle a cup of coffee and is active throughout the day. I notice a big difference in fat %. Great product!!
sucidal thoughts and freaked out
ok this is something i can feel….it’s strong. i’m taking 1 pill a day (2 is too much for me) and i’ve noticed increased energy and overal better workouts. Definitely cutting me up more… it has my approval
I’ve used this product for 1 month now, just finished yesterday, and i lost about 10 pounds of fat, but yea at the start it can be a bit strong but once your body gains a bit of tolerance to the pill you dont even notice any side effects, and you feel great. If you normally just sit around, and do nothing all day, and just want a pill to melt your fat away well then this is NOT for you at all. On this pill you need to drink LOTS of water, and you need to make sure that you are getting enough nutrients, from your foods, and never starve yourself. Thinking that if you take these pills, and dont eat is gonna make you thin twice as fast well that’s just stupid. Never starve yourself because your body will start to show lots of weight lose, but eventually you will eat again…. this is where your body will try to hold onto as much energy as it can, and when that happends you will eventually get fatter, and much more unhealthly then ever before. So after the month I also have noticed that I am much more toned, and that i can do much more things alot better then I could before I am 22 years old, and will continue to use this product for a little longer but in a cycle with my training, and I only worked out 30 mins of cardio 4 days a week and lifting for 30/1 hour a day for 3 days a week, and I did change my diet but nothing good just drank ALOT more water…. thats it, I still go to mcdonalds, and drink beers, and I still lost 10 pounds so this product is GREAT!!! just use what the box tells you, and if you feel sick half the dose if a full dose makes you sick then half the dose will do what the full dose does to others so your a lucky person. Well hope this helped people.
I’m 16 and in 4 sports this is the best supplement I have ever taken I have so much extra energy and strengh lost 1%body fat in two days. Don’t do anything to raise your heart rate too much after your workout you’ll feel really jitery for a while. Otherwise the greatest thing ever!!! Buy it!!!
