Caffeine - Caffeine actively causes you to feel more alert both physically and mentally. This is caused by inhibiting the effects of Adenosine which is responsible for inducing sleep. Adenosine has a relaxing effect on the body which Caffeine blocks out. Alongside its stimulant properties caffeine also reaches deep into the muscle cell providing long lasting power and delays muscle fatigue. Caffeine has also been recognised as a metabolism booster and causing increased energy levels. Research also suggests that Caffeine has been shown to increase the utilisation of fat for energy, especially during endurance activity. Caffeine is used in the vast majority of pre workout supplements due to its effective stimulant and fat oxidant properties.

Caffeine Key Benefits

This product is not intended to help, prevent, or cure any disease or illnesses. Consult your GP before using this product. DO NOT EXCEED the recommended dosage.

Creatine- Creatine Monohydrate is one of the most popular supplements in the sporting world. Creatine is a natural occurring substance in the body, formed from amino acids arginine, glycine and methionine. Creatine can also be found in natural food sources such as beef salmon and tuna in relatively small amounts, therefore it is far more effective to get creatine in the body with the use of supplements. These supplements are perfectly safe and healthy.

Creatine is an ideal supplement for a broad range of athletes from bodybuilders and boxers through to sprinters. Creatine is massively effective in helping people improve their strength, speed, lean mass and power. Creatine is a highly researched supplement and has been proven to help athletes increase massively in their speed, strength, growth and power. Creatine has also been proven to help reduce overall recovery time inbetween intense exercise session.

Creatine will help the body produce an increased level of ATP which is a chemical that is needed to make the muscles contract effectively. High levels of ATP delay the onset of fatigue and help lead towards improvements in strength, endurance, power and speed.

To get the most out of your creatine it is often taken with fast release carbohydrates and proteins. Creatine has also been shown to force greater amounts of liquid in the muscles, creating volumisation, making them feel larger and firmer. Important always ensure you are well hydrated whilst using creatine as a supplement.

Taurine -Taurine is a "conditional essential amino acid" that is produced naturally

by the body for most people but for others can only be provided by

supplements and food. Taurine can be found in foods such as meat, dairy

products and fish. Many energy drinks also contain taurine. Taurine is found

in high concentrations in white blood cells, skeletal muscles, central

nervous systems and in the muscles of the heart. After L-Glutamine Taurine

is the second most abundant amino acid in muscle tissue.

Taurine helps build up muscle contractility within the heart and joints

resulting in more efficient and powerful workouts. Preventing catabolism and

increases muscular strength and reduces fatigue. This is done by helping to

remove the build-up of lactic acid, increasing endurance and helping cause

longer work outs. Research also suggests that taurine supplementation can

help with fat loss and prevent obesity. This is due to the fact that Taurine

has the ability to significantly lower lipid levels in the bloodstream which

helps improve the body's ability to cope with excessive glucose in the

bloodstream.

Taurine also has the ability to act as an insulin mimicker, transporting

nutrients, amino acids and glucose into the muscle cells. In a similar way

to Creatine, Taurine can also draw water into your cells and become a very

effective cell volumiser, Taurine can help hydrate the muscle cells which

triggers increased protein synthesis and reduced protein breakdown, causing

an increase in muscle mass and strength. Additional nutrients that are drawn

into the muscles can aid recovery and growth.

Taurine can also act as a inhibitory neurotransmitter that can calm the

brain and nervous system, helping to benefit athletes that suffer from

anxiety and stress. Taurine can also be beneficial in helping to improve the

quality of sleep and improve focus.

Taurine is also an inhibitory neurotransmitter that has the ability to calm

the brain and nervous system this can benefit for athletes who suffer from,

anxiety and stress. Taurine also has the ability to improve the quality of

sleep and improve focus.  

Taurine Key Benefits

1.     Can improve force production.

2.     Reduces buildup of lactic acid.

3.     Aids protein synthesis.

4.     Cell volumiser.

Suggested Use - Add 2g to ******0ml of water or fruit juice. Shake and consume immediately.

We recommend taking twice daily:-

Approximately *0 minutes before training and at a similar time or

non-training days.

Can be taken another *0 minutes before sleep as it works well as a

Neurotransmitter.
