| R-ALA of BRANCH of sport Science improves the admission of Glykogen by the musculature, thus the muscle cell volume, the consequence becomes larger is among other things a strong pump effect during the training. That is a very desirable effect, since the increase in Muskelglykogen draws also the storage of other important nutrients. The muscle volume is continued to increase. R-ALA does not have thermal genes characteristics, but it seems that it contributes to it the body to change favourably. One believes that it is because of because nutrients are led to the muscle tissue and not to the fatty tissue. R-ALA helps to increase the efficiency of many different additions particularly from Creatin. R ALA helps to increase the absorption of the Kreatins into the muscle cell by making a transportation carrier available, with its singular ability, insulin to copy. R-ALA possesses also a pronounced anti-oxidative
effect.

CLA - Conjugated Linoleic Acid - is not a new discovery as some magazines would have you believe. However, a better understanding of its effects are leading to potential applications that are extremely new and exciting. AST Sports Science was the first company to report on CLAs possible benefits to the athlete over two years ago, and recent studies are backing up our
predictions. Research Proven to Build Muscle, Reduce Body Fat, and Induce a Optimum Cellular Environment For Improved
Health! CLA was discovered by accident in 1978 by Michael W. Pariza at the University of Wisconsin while looking for mutagen formations in meat during cooking. CLA, found naturally in many animal products, consists of positional and geometric isomers of linoleic acid. The difference between the two centers around CLA?s conjugated double bonds at carbon atoms 10 and 12 or 9 and 11. The 9 cis, 11 trans isomer is considered the most biologically active form of CLA.

| DHEA May Have A Profound Influence On Positive Body Composition Alteration Favoring Lean Muscle Tissue Accrual Yet another study revealed that high dose DHEA supplementation decreased body fat levels by 31% while maintaining the same overall body weight in just 28 days. This indicates a significant increase in lean body mass at the expense of body fat. This study shows DHEA may have a profound ability to significantly alter body composition to favor lean mass accrual.

BCAA is short for Branched Chain Amino Acid. The BCAAs are leucine, isoleucine and valine. These are 3 of the 9 essential amino acids in the human body. Essential amino acids cannot be produced by the body. You must get them through your diet. These 3 unique amino acids make up over 40% of your daily required essential amino acid
intake. BCAAs are unique in many ways but one extraordinary aspect of these 3 amino acids is that they bypass liver metabolism and are transported and metabolized directly in
muscle.

| BETA-X contains a naturally occurring amino acid that is the precursor to a critically important di-peptide called carnosine. Carnosine is a substance formed from beta-alanine that is naturally occurring in muscle tissue – primarily in fast twitch muscle fibers. Carnosine’s primary function in muscle is to buffer hydrogen ions (H+).
What does buffering H+ have to do with anything? It has everything to do with everything. Well, almost. H+ is a byproduct of muscle contraction from the breakdown of ATP (adenosine triphosphate) - the cellular fuel that powers muscles. This training induced increase in H+ is called metabolic acidosis. The more H+ that is generated the more the pH level in your muscles fall (becomes acid). When this happens muscles start to burn and rapid exhaustion occurs stopping muscle contraction ability dead in its
tracks.

Muscle soreness, aches and pains are just a way of life if you are athletic and active. If you train with weights, it’s just a normal everyday occurrence. You get used to it and even start to like it. Most people, right or wrong, use muscle soreness as a gauge of success of the previous day’s workout. Whatever your perception of muscle soreness is there is one thing you can’t let happen. You can’t let minor muscle or joint pain stop you from
training. BIOFREEZE is a unique and very effective analgesic (pain relieving) topical gel that provides fast-acting, long-lasting pain relief from sore muscles, joint pain, and muscle strains. BIOFREEZE works to speed healing by promoting circulation to the area applied. It’s amazing how pain and stiffness literally disappear when using BIOFREEZE. This incredible product allows you train hard and heavy every workout.

| Micronized Creatine is a powerful muscle building supplement. As you know, it's usually taken in powder form mixed into water or a flavored drink but you don't always have time to mix a drink. Even if it takes you just 5 minutes, when you are busy and on the go those 5 minutes may be impossible to spare. And as good and effective as Micronized Creatine is, it will not do you a bit of good if you don't take it. And if you miss a dose every now and then you're zapping Micronized Creatine's ability to fuel muscle growth and
strength. How many times have you skipped a scheduled dose of creatine because time just slipped away? Now you have the power of Micronized Creatine in a convenient capsule so you can take them anywhere at any time with no mixing and no mess. Just pop a few capsules and you're good to go. The Micronized Creatine can go to work igniting muscle growth.

Creatine HSC uses the integration of creatine carrier sub-pathways and bioenergetic mediation to dramatically increase muscle cell creatine uptake and retention, creatine/ATP turnover, muscle cell volume, protein synthesis and lean muscle growth.
It’s one thing to chug down spoonfuls of creatine, it’s quite another to get that creatine into muscle tissue to promote increased muscle growth. Creatine HSC solves this dilemma by integrating four very important creatine
mediators. Integrated ATP Support System. Creatine HSC Nutrition ATP is the fuel that propels muscular contraction. Every rep you do depletes ATP stores. Creatine is the key component in replenishing this all important muscular fuel, but it’s just one piece to the puzzle. Creatine HSC also provides you with little known, but all important “bioenergetic-intermediates” that are essential to fuel the creatine-to-ATP conversion process.

| DGC (Dextrorotatory Glucose Crystals) is a unique glucose crystal that supplies an unmatched fuel source for fast and efficient muscle energy. DGC requires no digestion prior to absorption into the bloodstream. This means an ultra-fast fuel supply for supporting quick and sustained muscle energy requirements and mental function. Glucose fuels muscle action. Muscle gets the glucose it requires for energy from what is circulating in your bloodstream. There are only about 6 grams of circulating glucose. This lasts approximately 15 minutes. Once depleted, glucose is then supplied from storage in the
liver.

GABA’s high concentration in the hypothalamus suggests this amino acid plays a significant role in hypothalamic-pituitary function. The hypothalamus is a region of the posterior section of the brain and is the regulating center for visceral (instinctive) functions such as sleep cycles, body temperature, and the activity of the pituitary
gland. The pituitary gland is the master endocrine gland effecting all hormonal functions of the body. One primary hormone of concern to the athlete is growth hormone (GH) and its various hormonal
constituents. The amino acid GABA has been shown in numerous studies to promote significant increases in plasma growth hormone levels.

Every now and then I stumble upon a product that’s just so cool I feel I have to make people aware of it. New Jolt Caffeine Energy Gum is one of those products. Jolt is an awesome tasting gum – one of the best I’ve ever tasted – with a serious “JOLT” of energizing caffeine, guarana, and ginseng. Jolt Gum is as safe as coffee (and arguably even safer). The caffeine is exactly the same molecule as in coffee and packs an energizing punch like no other chewing
refreshment. Jolt spearmint caffeine-energy gum has a mild, natural mint flavor that perks you up and freshens your
breath.
