• You want high levels of energy
• You want increased muscle pumps
• You want to maximize your training sessions

Beta-Alanine

Beta-alanine is a modified version of amino acid alanine and is used by the body to increase carnosine stores in the muscles. Carnosine can help buffer lactic acid buildup and increase muscle endurance. Beta-alanine typically causes a tingling sensation on the skin known as parentheses and is a completely harmless side effect. 

Betaine is an active metabolite of choline, as is a natural component of beetroot. Betaine is an osmoregulator similar to creatine, which keeps your cell hydration status level under periods of intense exercise. Due to this, betaine has been studied to show increases in both strength and power output. Betaine also works to reduce homocysteine in the body which gives it a cardioprotective effect. 

Magnesium Creatine Chelate

Magnesium Creatine Chelate is a bonded form of magnesium and creatine. Both these ingredients have their own benefits, with magnesium being an essential electrolyte for the body, and creatine’s positive effects on cellular energy and lean muscle mass.

Caffeine Anhydrous 

Caffeine Anhydrous is a fast-acting form of caffeine. Caffeine is a powerful stimulant that blocks adenosine receptors in the body. Adenosine causes relaxation and sedation, which is why caffeine is used for energy, alertness, and wakefulness. Caffeine can positively affect both strength and power output. 

Choline Bitartrate

Choline bitartrate is a dietary source of choline that contributes to acetylcholine production in the body. Acetylcholine is involved in the muscle contraction process and can improve subjective levels of focus. “learning neurotransmitter”.

Alpha GPC

Alpha GPC is a dietary source of choline, meaning it contributes to acetylcholine levels in the body. Acetylcholine is a primary neurotransmitter responsible for muscle contraction, learning, and subjective feelings of focus. Alpha GPC has been shown to improve power output in athletes, likely due to the increase in focus on the exercise movement itself. Alpha GPC can help with the “mind-muscle connection”.

TeaCrine

Teacrine is a clinically studied trademarked ingredient used for both energy and mood enhancement. Teacrine is structurally similar to caffeine but is not a stimulant. What this means is that Teacrine can provide a reliable energy boost without acting on the central nervous system as caffeine does. This allows you to bypass the “jitters” and “crash” that can come from caffeine. Teacrine is also non-habitual, meaning your body does not build a tolerance for it such as caffeine.

Dicaffeine Malate

Dicaffeiene malate is a form of caffeine that is slow to release, meaning it provides a smoother, longer-lasting curve of energy compared to its other caffeine counterparts. Caffeine is a powerful stimulant that blocks adenosine receptors in the body. Adenosine causes relaxation and sedation, which is why caffeine is used for energy, alertness, and wakefulness. Caffeine can positively affect both strength and power output.

Black Pepper Extract

Black pepper extract, sometimes referred to as piperine, helps certain ingredients with absorption in the body. Particularly plant-derived ingredients.

Huperzine-A

Huperzine-A is a nootropic ingredient that inhibits acetylcholinesterase, meaning it allows acetylcholine levels to be raised for a longer period of time. Acetylcholine is a prominent neurotransmitter in the body that is vital for muscle contractions, cell communication, and learning.
