Universal Nutrition BCAA 2000 Reviews

Thu, 04 Mar 2010 15:00:15 -0600

by: MuSuLPhReAk

Description: Next to protein, amino acid supplements may be the most important supplement for all bodybuilders. And when it comes to the various aminos, few others can compare to the importance of branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs) and BCAA 2000. In fact, for the bodybuilder, BCAA 2000 may very well be the most important amino acid product you ever buy. There´s nothing fancy or trendy about BCAA 2000. Over the years, the BCAAs found in BCAA 2000 have been studied extensively for their dual anabolic and anti-catabolic activities. You read that right, BCAA 2000 is both anabolic and anti-catabolic. BCAAs are anabolic because of their ability to (1) significantly increase protein synthesis; (2) facilitate the release of hormones such as growth hormone (GH), IGF-1, and insulin; and (3) help maintain favorable testosterone levels. BCAAs are also remarkably anti-catabolic-BCAAs can help prevent protein breakdown and muscle loss. During intense training or strict dieting, muscle loss becomes a real issue. That´s why you need to supplement with BCAA 2000. BCAA 2000 has been a leading branched-chain amino acid supplement for nearly a decade. It´s a proven amino acid supplement that works. Each serving provides nearly a gram of leucine and valine along with isoleucine. Plus, BCAA 2000 comes with nutritional co-factors designed to improve the overall effectiveness of this product. No other product can match its purity or efficacy. While serious bodybuilders should use BCAA 2000 all year round, there are certain times when BCAA 2000 use is absolutely critical. During periods of particularly intense dieting or training (i.e., when caloric intake is reduced or when energy expenditure is increased), BCAAs can be even more important. During these times, there?s a great risk for muscle loss due to (1) a decrease in the rate of protein synthesis and (2) increase of proteolysis. BCAA 2000 can help ensure that neither of this occurs. In fact, BCAAs can actually be oxidized for energy during a calorie-deficit diet. Studies have actually examined the role BCAAs play during weight loss. In one landmark study, elite athletes on a diet supplemented with BCAAs. The BCAA group showed the greatest weight loss and decrease in bodyfat percentages. So if you are a competitive bodybuilder, and your goal is to reduce bodyfat while maintaining lean body mass, you can´t afford to train without BCAA 2000.

Universal Nutrition Animal Test Reviews

Thu, 04 Mar 2010 14:56:18 -0600

by: MuSuLPhReAk

Description: Animal Test is the ultimate in legal hypertrophic, pro-testosterone supplementation. Combining the most potent natural extracts with one of the hottest, patented, proven supplements to hit the industry in recent years, the all new Animal Test redefines the capabilities of bodybuilding supplementation. The Pro-Androgen portion of the Animal Test formula couples dynamic herbal extracts designed to facilitate a rise in free and total testosterone with effective anti-estrogen compounds capable of maximizing the natural anabolic response. Translation? Explosive gains in strength and size. This complex includes the revered free test potentiator 3,4- divanillyl tetrahydrofuran with anabolic ketosterones extracted from Cissus Quadrangularis—another exciting bodybuilding ingredient. Fortified with yohimbe extract designed to enable physique recomposition, this is only the first facet of the powerful Test formula. In order to capitalize on this blast of utilizable testosterone, Animal Test comes fully equipped with a combination of cutting edge anti-estrogens including the ultra antioxidant Trans Reservatrol with 3´,5,7-Trihydroxy-4´-methoxyflavone (Hesperetin) and Agaricus Bisporus polysaccharides. These constituents work to block circulating estrogen from reaching receptors as well as negating the inevitable estrogen boost brought about by excessive testosterone production, thus directly and indirectly promoting a higher ratio of circulating serum testosterone. Both components of the Pro-Androgen complex are assured for utmost efficiency and uptake through the inclusion of 6´,7´ Dihydroxybergamottin and patented Bioperine—the very best absorption-enhancing ingredients available today. The final and perhaps the most dramatically powerful element of the new Animal Test formula is the inclusion of the highly heralded, proven and patented hypertrophic agent, Arachidonic Acid (AA). Backed by university research studies and real world testimonials, AA has taken the bodybuilding world by storm—and for good reason. Arachidonic Acid has multiple benefits for the hard training bodybuilder, the most dramatic of which are the ability for it to enhance androgen receptor sensitivity and to amplify training related muscle inflammation and in turn magnify hypertrophy. This status as an anabolic catalyst made it the perfect backbone for this new Animal formula—providing muscle building qualities by itself and augmenting the actions of the other extremely powerful ingredients that together comprise Animal Test.

by: MuSuLPhReAk

Universal Nutrition Alpha Lipoic Acid Reviews

Thu, 04 Mar 2010 14:30:25 -0600

by: MuSuLPhReAk

Description: Alpha Lipoic Acid (ALA) is an antioxidant that has two main benefits. The first benefit is the removal of free radicals from your body and the functional enhancement of other antioxidants, such as vitamins A, C and E. Free radicals are waste products that are created when your body turns food into energy. Ridding your body of free radicals could deter the onset of many health related problems. The second benefit of ALA is its "insulin mimicking" effects - the dramatic decrease in glucose levels. Insulin mimicking also provides increased concentrations of glutathione in the cells, which has been shown to speed up recovery from weight training. It also enhances muscle cell nutrient intake and protein turnover.

Universal Nutrition Glutamine Caps Reviews

Thu, 04 Mar 2010 14:24:35 -0600

by: MuSuLPhReAk

Description: Glutamine is one of the most versatile of all amino acids, and among the top aminos used by elite athletes. Among its many functions, supports protein synthesis and protein degradation, functions as a nitrogen precursor and transfer, supports cellular hydration, supports growth hormone production, maintains acid balance, supports a healthy immune system, is an energy precursor and supports glycogen production in the liver. In short, glutamine is both anabolic and anti-catabolic. Glutamine accounts for about 60% of the body´s total intramuscular free amino-acid pool and 20% of the total circulating amino acids. Unlike almost all other aminos, glutamine contains two nitrogen atoms. Because of this additional nitrogen atom, glutamine is called a nitrogen shuttle. Glutamine transports nitrogen where the body needs it most.

Universal Nutrition Carbo Plus Reviews

Thu, 04 Mar 2010 14:21:53 -0600

by: MuSuLPhReAk

Universal Nutrition Beta Ala9 Reviews

Thu, 04 Mar 2010 14:14:25 -0600

by: MuSuLPhReAk

Description: Universal Nutrition's Beta Ala9 combines beta alanine along with 8 key support nutrients, helping to form a potent beta alanine supplement. Beta alanine is needed to help promote high levels of intramuscular L-carnosine. L-carnosine, in turn, plays a key role in maintaining proper muscle pH. L-carnosine is naturally occurring and helps to soak up the positive hydrogen ions that are released through intense exercise. These hydrogen ions cause muscle pH to drop, making muscle pH more acidic. The result? Increased muscular fatigue and decreased strength. This is where Beta Ala9ï¿½ comes into play. It works to boost the musclesï¿½ natural level of L-carnosine, assisting the muscle in buffering the overload of positive hydrogen ions produced from intense workouts. Coupled with a specialized absorption and buffering blend, Beta Ala9 aids muscles and helps ensure that they are working at optimum levels to enhance muscle cell buffering while also combating dreaded free radical production.

Universal Nutrition Milk & Egg Protein Reviews

Thu, 04 Mar 2010 14:07:14 -0600

by: MuSuLPhReAk

Description: l'd school bodybuilders grew up on milk protein and egg white protein. For them, we have Milk & Egg, an ideal combination of milk protein (casein & lactalbumin) and egg protein (albumin). Research has shown that the specific blend of proteins found in this protein supplement can help promote significant muscle growth when combined with anaerobic resistance training.

Universal Nutrition Advanced Soy Protein Reviews

Thu, 04 Mar 2010 14:03:37 -0600

by: MuSuLPhReAk

Description: Whether you´re a serious athlete or not, you´re probably heard of the amazing benefits of using soy. Representing the next generation in high-yield water-washed isolates, Universal Nutrition has engineered our revolutionary new Advanced Soy Pro to provide you with the ultimate soy advantage. For the athlete, Advanced Soy Pro contains all the essential amino acids and the highest amounts of "critical cluster" aminos (BCAAs, glutamine & arginine) found anywhere--more than egg, milk and even whey protein! To maximize the overall health benefits derived from soy, our Advanced Soy Pro is strictly water-washed to ensure the highest levels of isofalvones - isoflavones are highly soluable in alcohol and are lost in conventional alcohol-washed processing. Advanced Soy Pro preserves the natural levels of isoflavones as found in the soybean itself. Each serving of Advanced Soy Pro provides up to 125mg of isoflavones. Mounting evidence suggests that regular soy intake can help promote cardiovascular health, boost the immune system, maintain healthy cholesterol levels, support healthy bones, and regulate hormones more effectively. If theres one company to should get your soy protein from its Universal, and that product is Advanced Soy Pro.

Universal Nutrition Hi Protein Bar Reviews

Thu, 04 Mar 2010 14:00:39 -0600

by: MuSuLPhReAk

Description: First there was the "energy bar." This was followed by the "high protein" bar and then the "low carb" bar. With the Hi Protein Bar, a new precedent has been set: the high protein/low carb (HPLC) bar. Hi Protein Bar is the first HPLC bar with over 33-34g of protein and only 7g of net impact carbs. With a protein-to-carb ratio of nearly 5-to-1, there is no other bar like it in the world. For starters, the Hi Protein Bar is the world´s largest high protein bar, topping the scales at 85g (9% larger than typical bars). And while many bars use only whey protein concentrate exclusively, Hi Protein also uses the purer, more expensive whey protein isolates in each and every bar. Plus, you´ll also find hydrolyzed whey protein, glutamine peptides, and soy isolates. You won´t find this combination in anything else. But protein is only part of the story. Compare Hi Protein Bar´s 1g sugars to others. Some "high protein" bars contain 13g of sugars! Hi Protein Bar is also the only bar of its kind which contains no sucrose or added salt. There is no other bar in this category which can make these claims. Not one. How is this possible? We make all of our own bars. We don´t hire a "contract manufacturer" to do it for us. Ever wonder why nearly all bars taste the same? That´s right, contract manufacturing. Does the back of your high protein bar say, "made by" as it should, or does it say "made for" or "distributed by"? This is an important distinction. Manufactured by us. More protein, fewest carbs. What more do you need to know? How about a nice, easy price? Because we´re the manufacturer, we can keep quality up and cost down. On a gram per gram basis, Hi Protein Bar is the most economical of all the bars. Bottom line: you´re not going to find more protein and fewer carbs anywhere else at a better price. Finally, while protein content may be the primary concern, and while the price is secondary, there´s still the issue of taste. A bar can be great in every respect, but without taste, it will never succeed. Some bars on the market have the consistency of asphalt. Others taste like they´re made of concrete. Rest assured, all of the Hi Protein Bars are soft, moist, fresh and delicious. In a recent comparison, consumers chose ours as one of the best tasting high protein bars on the market. With 20 key vitamins and minerals and its proprietary Hi Protein Bar Matrix, the Hi Protein Bar is hard to beat. Extremely hard.

Universal Nutrition ZMA Pro Reviews

Thu, 04 Mar 2010 13:53:22 -0600

by: MuSuLPhReAk

Description: We use only the finest patent-pending ZMA that has been scientifically proven to be 2 1/2 times stronger than a placebo! ZMA is the only non-steroidal, all natural dietary supplement that is 100% clinically proven to increase Testosterone levels and increase strength in athletes. Increased muscle tissue growth and recovery can only be accomplished if your body is kept in an anabolic state for a considerable length of time. ZMA will help your body to stay in this anabolic state thereby increasing your body´s overall lean muscle mass. In an eight week double blind, placebo controlled study with college football players, ZMA was found to increase total plasma testosterone levels by 32.4%, increase Insulin-Like Growth Factor by 3.6%, increase free testosterone levels by 33.5%, and increase muscle strength by 11.6%. This study is conclusive because the testosterone levels and IGF-1 levels actually dropped in the placebo group overnight, whereas with the ZMA group, it jumped considerably.

Universal Nutrition Animal Nitro Reviews

Thu, 04 Mar 2010 13:00:30 -0600

by: MuSuLPhReAk

Description: Aminos are the basic building blocks of muscle. Aminos can also trigger anabolism, the cornerstone of muscle growth. As a lifter, you need them, especially the right ones. While there are nearly two dozen different amino acids, only a select few are absolutely essential for igniting the anabolic drive, as new research has shown. Not surprisingly, these required aminos are the same ones found in human muscle protein. Animal Nitro is the first and only supplement that contains the correct ratios of those aminos based on human muscle protein itself. This complex of aminos is appropriately called Human Muscle Protein Complex (HMPC) and they're only in Animal Nitro. HMPC consists of special "uncoupled" aminos exclusively -- those that are free of the chemical bonds that can limit maximum utilization. By using only 100% uncoupled aminos in HMPC, Animal Nitro delivers a precisely controlled dose of aminos that are "targeted" to efficiently enter systemic circulation through a novel amino transport system. Here's how it works. Each pack consists of a measured 6,000mg dose of uncoupled aminos (HMPC). Once ingested, they form a special bolus (a protective "mass") that allows them to efficiently bypass the liver. Now this is vital as the liver captures and catabolizes regular amino acids (like those found in protein powders such as whey and more conventional amino supplements) to urea, a waste product. Once safely past the liver, this bolus of uncoupled aminos enters systemic circulation, where they can exert their powerful pharmacological actions-vasodilatation and anabolism. When combined with resistance training, Animal Nitro can actually help your body deliver more nutrients to your working muscles, recover more quickly, and build new muscle mass by enhancing protein synthesis, improving net muscle protein balance, and preventing muscle breakdown. Gram for gram, nothing is as pure, as efficient, as potent, and as effective as Animal Nitro. It's the gold standard among amino.

Universal Nutrition Natural Sterol Complex Reviews

Thu, 04 Mar 2010 12:57:16 -0600

by: MuSuLPhReAk

Description: Oral and injectable steroids are derivatives of testosterone,a highly anabolic hormone. Historically, these anabolic steroids were synthesized from natural plant sterols (plant sterols share many chemical similarities). As steroids are illegal, require a prescription, and raise the risk of many unwanted side effects, many bodybuilders have long sought natural alternatives. This search led to the invention of the original Natural Sterol Complex more than a decade ago. A Plant Sterol-Based Anabolic Supplement Natural Sterol Complex is the powerful but natural alternative that serious bodybuilders have been looking for. Eight distinct and potent components make up the best-selling Natural Sterol Complex formula: plant sterols, amino acids, energy substrates, essential fatty acids (EFAs), electrolytes, performance boosters, nucleosides, and important minerals. These components ensure that Natural Sterol Complex will get you bigger and harder in a shorter period of time. The select plant sterol formula found in every bottle is what makes Natural Sterol Complex so unique among bodybuilding supplements. Chemically similar to testosterone, these sterols can exert powerful anabolic effects on growing muscles. The benefits of sterols dont stop there. Specific sterols found in Natural Sterol Complex can actually bind to estrogen receptor sites, thus reducing the likelihood of aromatization (estrogen conversion). With Natural Sterol Complex, you get a comprehensive blend of sterols including fucosterol, stigmasterol, B-sitosterol, campesterol, and other mixed sterols for maximum results. Natural Sterol Complex also contains nutritional co-factors designed to increase its overall effectiveness, including essential fatty acids, electrolytes, nucleosides, performance and metabolic botanicals, detoxifiers, and more. The comprehensive formula found in Natural Sterol Complex can enhance your body´s ability to increase muscle mass and density, boost performance and recovery, enhance energy levels and strength. Natural Sterol Complex is a proven, time-tested natural anabolic alternative that works. For nearly fifteen years, Natural Sterol Complex has been the leading natural, legal and drug-free anabolic supplement. When you´re ready for the real deal, turn to Natural Sterol Complex. Find out why Natural Sterol has been the leading sterol formula for so many years.

Universal Nutrition UniSyn MRP2 Reviews

Thu, 04 Mar 2010 12:47:53 -0600

by: MuSuLPhReAk

Description: Uni-Syn represents the highest achievement in the evolution of the meal replacement powder?it is the pinnacle of nutritionally-complete shakes. One serving of Uni-SynTM contains 26 necessary vitamins and minerals, dietary fiber, plus a whopping 44 grams of the highest quality, most bioefficient protein matrix in the world (and less than 1.5g grams of fat). Uni-Syn: The All-New Advanced Nutrient Delivery System First generation meal replacement powders (MRP), while functional, were very primitive from a nutritional perspective. These powders utilized the existing proteins, which by today´s technological standards, are now considered vastly inferior. Plus early MRP´s were packed with undesirable ingredients including refined sugars such as sucrose, corn syrup solids, hydrogenated oils, and aspartame. Then corn syrup solids, hydrogenated oils, and aspartame. Then there was the matter of taste. Today, an effective MRP doesn´t have to taste like oversweetened cardboard or cause unnecessary flatulence. Now there´s new Uni-Syn from Universal Nutrition. Uni-Syn doesn´t cut any corners when it comes to the quality of its formulation. Only the highest quality, most expensive ingredients are used, from the low-molecular weight protiens to the glucose polymers (carbohydrates). Universal Nutrition´s primary goal was to create the finest, purest, most nutritionally-dense MRP without all the unnecessary "fillers" found in other powders. You hold the amazing result in your hands. The key to Uni-Syn is found in its unique protein matrix, Unisyn Protein Complex. It consists of six protein sources: premium ultrafiltrated low-molecular weight whey protein isolates and concentrate, superior isolated casein peptides, glutamine peptides, total milk proteins (TMP), and a next generation egg albumin protein. Together, this technologically advanced fusion of proteins creates a matrix that is not only nutritious but highly bioefficient. Plus, each serving of Uni-Syn provides 22g of efficient carboydrates in the form of glucose polymers. Studies have shown that glucose polymers, unlike refined sugars found in many other shakes, can actually enhance overall performance. Finally, 25 required vitamins and minerals have been added to produce a nutritionally complete shake. In essence, Uni-Syn is a meal replacmenet powder only Universal´s research and development team could have formulated. Uni-Syn is a fusion of "Universal" & "Synergy". It provides you with a "unison" of macro- and micronutrients in key ratios which can help you achieve your health and fitness goals.

Universal Nutrition EAA Stack Reviews

Thu, 04 Mar 2010 12:43:34 -0600

by: MuSuLPhReAk

Description: EAA Stack, with its comprehensive essential amino acid (EAA) profile, is designed to deliver the correct ratios of key essential amino acids required for igniting the anabolic drive via increased muscle protein synthesis and decreased muscle protein breakdown. Recent research has shown that, following resistance exercise, only EAAs are needed to spark protein synthesis - non-essential amino acids (NEAAs) are not required and are effectively wasted. What makes EAA Stack superior is that it contains the right forms and dose of EAAs. By using only special Free Form aminos, EAA Stack delivers those critical aminos fast, when your muscles need them most. Each serving of EAA Stack also provides a proven 6,000mg dose. So on the road to recovery and new growth, be sure to fuel your muscles with EAA Stack.

Universal Nutrition Storm Reviews

by: MuSuLPhReAk

Description: If you want to enhance your performance in the gym and add serious size onto your frame, then look no further than Storm. We are talking about serious size, not extra fat from the sugar-loaded creatine products of the past. We use only the finest and most advanced blend of creatine including magnesium creatine chelate, which is a patented form of the molecule that has been shown to boost strength after only 2 weeks of use. This coupled with the potent blend of nitric oxide boosters and insulin potentiators that make up Storm´s delivery system makes it the most potent volumizing formula available. It Has a Superior Delivery System: Storm uses a unique delivery technology called iNOXsulin-7, that speeds up the absorption without the need for any unwanted glucose ingestion. iNOXsulin-7 uses time released nitric oxide boosters and insulin potentiators to effectively shuttle the creatine into the muscle tissue during your "window of opportunity" that exists directly prior to and immediately after your workout. You can also expect incredible pumps from the NO boosting complex that will help increase your energy levels in the gym. It Has 4 Forms of Creatine: Storm uses 4 diverse forms of creatine to form the foundation for this advanced formula that can help saturate your muscle tissue like no other. Storm contains some of the most technologically advanced forms of creatine, including magnesium creatine chelate, dicreatine malate and tricreatine malate for superior uptake. We didn´t forget creatine monohydrate, the tried and true form that has produced proven results time and time again. Introducing these four distinct forms into your system will allow for a continuous flood of creatine into your muscle tissue for sustained benefits throughout the day.

Universal Nutrition Torrent Reviews

Thu, 04 Mar 2010 12:29:13 -0600

by: MuSuLPhReAk

Description: Torrent sets a new standard for post-workout (PWO) nutrition. Though often overlooked, this part of the bodybuilding equation is the most critical aspect in the quest to foster new growth. Properly utilizing this time is vital for inducing overall muscle mass "activation". Torrent's formula is designed to maximize the anabolic "window of opportunity" that exists after a hard training session, when muscle protein synthesis can potentially be stimulated for hours. Simultaneously, the rate of protein degradation is also increased. In the absence of critical macronutrient intake, a bodybuilder's protein balance would remain negative. If you want to build muscle this definitely isn't good. This is where Torrent� comes into play. It acts quickly and efficiently by supplying your muscles with a powerful cascade of criticial nutrients, all in a matter of moments. After a hard workout your muscles are torn down, glycogen is depleted and your body enters a damaging catabolic state. For the bodybuilder, this is a state of red alert. When consumed immediately post-training, Torrent's proprietary blend of muscle mass activators rush to bring your body back into anabolic "green light" status, quickly repairing damaged muscle fibers while triggering fresh growth. First and foremost, it has super high-efficiency protein. Torrent� is loaded with hydrolyzed whey protein, which consists of small whey peptides that can be quickly digested and absorbed. Hydrolyzed protein is the quickest digesting protein available. Torrent also contains a specialized Osmosulin Matrix of carbohydrates that allows for quick glycogen replenishment and the fastest possible absorption of muscle-nourishing nutrients. This blend is packed with an optimal ratio of complex carbs from innovative, highly prized waxy maize starch, maltodextrin, and dextrose. This blend allows for a dramatic boost of anabolic insulin via simple sugars coupled with the nutrient-drawing effects of "high molecular weight" carbohydrates. The formula is then generously spiked with 18 grams of a key proprietary blend of advanced aminos and creatines. A special "anabolic matrix" that will put your muscles in post-workout recovery overdrive. When consumed immediately after intense training this potent blend can induce a powerful anabolic surge that shuttles nutrients into your starved muscle cells. Heightened anabolism, rapid nutrient transport, insulin potentiating--all delivered by means of a delicious post-workout growth cocktail. And we mean delicious. Torrent is an anabolic force mother nature never intended. Blow your plateaus away with Torrent. Torrent Highlights: * Post Workout Recovery Matrix * Anabolic Muscle Activator * Enhanced With Key Aminos * Triggers New Muscle Growth * Osmosulin Delivery System * Supports Glycogen Re-Synthesis Frequently Asked Questions: Does Torrent contain enough protein? Yes. Torrent has 20g of protein, but it's not just regular whey protein. Torrent contains expensive WPH (whey protein hydrolysates), which is the fastest absorbing protein of its kind, even faster than free form aminos. After a workout the goal is to take in only the most efficient sources of nutrients and WPH is as efficient as it gets. Plus, research suggests that too much protein isn't efficient as excess can convert to the waste product, urea. Torrent is lean and efficient and was designed with the idea that nothing should go to waste. Also, bear in mind that Torrent contains 8,000mg of a special leucine complex, bringing up the total amino acid content of Torrent significantly. For those in the know, leucine may very well be the most anabolic of all the amino acids. This 8,000mg, when combined with WPH, creates a far greater impact than 20g of whey protein concentrate alone. I've been hearing a lot about Waxy Maize Starch. What makes it so special? Waxy Maize Starch (WMS) is a unique and very expensive "high molecular weight" carbohydrate that has the ability to move through the stomach rapidly. This is ideal for quick glycogen replenishment without "stomach bloat". Just as importantly, WMS has the ability to draw or "pull" other nutrients into your muscles cells along with it-this special "torrent" action makes it an ideal carb for post-workout ingestion. Why use Waxy Maize Starch in conjunction with other carbs? WMS has a "nutrient drawing" effect because of its high molecular weight. Taken in the Osmosulin Carb Matrix along with d-glucose and maltodextrin, you combine this rapid gut-passing of aminos and other nutrients from WMS with the potent insulin spiking properties of simple carbohydrates. In other words, Torrent provides a fuller spectrum of various carb sources, each with their own functional advantages. Do I need to use Torrent on my non-training days? No. Torrent is a post-workout supplement that can optimally be used on training days when your muscles require superior, targeted nutrition. Why do I need Torrent� Isn't my regular PWO protein shake enough? Simply put, no. Recent studies show that combining whey along with carbs and leucine is more beneficial than protein alone or protein and carbs alone. The additional leucine appears to help further stimulate muscle protein synthesis and maximally optimizes whole protein balance. Leucine is the "money" amino in terms of anabolism, and Torrent delivers a full 8,000 milligram complex of its most advanced forms. With Torrent, all of your postworkout needs are covered in one shot and at a price that is very, very nice. Easily digested protein, an advanced carb blend and 18,000mg of cutting-edge aminos and creatine all in one is a delicious postworkout drink mix. Does Torrent need to be "cycled"? No, as a post-workout shake, Torrent should be taken after each workout to help supply your muscles with the right nutrients for muscle growth and repair. There is no need to cycle it. Regarding the creatines used in Torrent, see this FAQ. Can I mix Torrent with milk or is water enough?You can, but for optimal results, Torrent should be mixed with water. Torrent is a complete post-workout shake. Adding milk or other substances to the shake can cause some delay of its absorption-meaning it'll take longer for critical nutrients to reach your muscle cells. 20 oz. of water hand mixed in a standard shaker cup or water bottle is all you need. Can I use Storm and Shock Therapy with Torrent? Yes. Torrent is designed to fit right along with the tried and true combination of Shock Therapy and Storm. Here's how you'd do it: take Shock Therapy 30 mins pre-workout. Consume Storm either during your workout or immediately afterwards. Take Torrent within 15 minutes after your workout. Conversely, do I need another source of creatine other than that contained in Torrent? No. While you can stack Torrent with other creatine products like Animal Pump, Storm and/or Shock Therapy for greater results, you can also use Torrent as your sole creatine source. Torrent contains 3g of creatine including creatine ethyl ester (CEE) and magnesium creatine chelate (MCC). Bear in mind that, as you are using Torrent only on training days, you'll still need to supplement with creatine on your off days. Taste wise, most postworkout drinks taste awful? How did you get around this fact with Torrent? True, it is difficult to mask the flavor of a formula that includes not only WPH and WMS, but 18g of advanced aminos. But through months of stringent taste testing protocols and new advancements in flavoring, we think we created a product you will actually look forward to consuming.

Universal Nutrition N1-T Reviews

Thu, 04 Mar 2010 12:20:26 -0600

by: MuSuLPhReAk

Description: It´s hard to gain and retain lean muscle mass. Muscle tissue requires a variety of nutrients and stimuli to grow and remain in the enlarged state. Eating and training at intense levels are the necessary components needed to put on this quality mass, but this will only allow you to come closer to your potential. If you want to realize your body´s potential you need to raise the level of testosterone in your body; the free testosterone to total testosterone ratio in particular. Free testosterone is what really matters when strength and size gains are your goal. N1-T is a potent pro testosterone formula that will help raise your free testosterone ratio.* It combines three boosters, tribulus, longjack and avena sativa, to help increase your total and free testosterone levels.* These aren´t the cheap and ineffective versions and dosages either. Why Choose Universal Nutrition´s N1-T? It Works: The ingredients that comprise our formula are of high quality. Our LongJack 400 Complex uses LJ-100, which supplies 22% EuryPeptides, 40% glyco saponins and 30% polysacharides, to increase free testosterone levels.* Human clinical trials suggest that this compound almost doubles testosterone and increases free testosterone (the testosterone level that is most important), decrease Sex Hormone Binding Globulin (SHBG) (the compound that binds to testosterone to keep it in the unusable state), and increase IGF1 levels.* Our Test-Stim Complex includes a variety of ingredients that help to elevate both of your testosterone levels: free and total.* We use only the best tribulus that is standardized for 60% steroidal saponins as well as 20% protodioscin, which helps to elevate luteinizing hormone (LH).* LH, in turn, raises your total testosterone levels.* Our avena sativa is standardized for avenacosides A & B, and helps to break bound testosterone off of compounds that keep it from entering into free systemic circulation.* With this increase in both total and free testosterone, your strength and drive in the gym will follow, leading to superior lean muscle mass gains.* Delivery System: N1-T uses patented Bioperine, which speeds up the delivery of the compounds necessary to start turning bound testosterone into free testosterone when you need it fastest, right before your workout and while at rest.* This should enhance your workout as well as the rapid recovery period that is experienced when your body is at rest at night.* All New Natural Testosterone Enhancing Product N1-T™.* Eventually your progress will screech to a halt. Itstrong>s just a simple fact of life as a bodybuilder. That dreaded plateau will undeniably rear its ugly head, no matter how exacting you are with your training and nutrition. This grim reality becomes all the more relevant as your own natural production of testosterone starts to diminish, a process that can begin as soon as your early twenties. The way bodybuilders combat such a discouraging turn of events is by going back to the drawing board... Addressing deficiencies in their diets, changing their training routines, trying out new supplements... Something, anything to get them back on track. Often, they overlook the simplest thing... Testosterone. On one hand, athletes with naturally abundant testosterone may feel that they have no concerns in this area. Conversely, those with lower test levels wonder how they can address such a problem. In both cases, however, testosterone modulation is the critical piece of the puzzle. This is where the all new N1-T™ comes in. Universal Nutrition seeks to advance the world of pro testosterone supplements with N1-T™.* N1-T™ uses a complementary blend of cutting edge, all natural testosterone boosting agents designed specifically for dual purposes: (1) to help maximize natural testosterone production and (2) to help improve the ratios of something called "free" testosterone to "total" testosterone.* In simple terms, free testosterone is the only kind that is useful when it comes to building muscle. For bodybuilding applications, testosterone is absolutely essential for stimulation of anabolic activity in the body.* Increased testosterone levels lead to more lean muscle mass, increased strength, and enhanced protein synthesis. So, essentially, you can equate abundant testosterone with muscle gain. During puberty, testosterone levels are at their peak. These levels begin to decline around the age of 25. This is where a natural anabolic amplifier like N1-T™ can help change things around.* Clinical studies suggest that the ingredients in N1-T™ nearly double total testosterone, and increase free testosterone by decreasing sex hormone binding globulin (SHBG) levels, and boost lutenizing hormone (LH).* Sounds intriguing, right? So, letstrong>s take a look at how N1-T™ is able to alter onestrong>s internal anabolic processes.* Picture N1-T™ as the key to unlocking your bodystrong>s natural potential.* The ability to unlock this potential rests in N1-Tstrong>sTM specialized Test-Stim Complex. This complex consists of powerful compounds that effectively decrease SHBG levels.* SHBG is a hated hormone in the bodybuilding world due to its high-affinity for binding to testosterone. What this means is that youstrong>re left with less circulating free testosterone in your system, which greatly hinders your muscle building capabilities. N1-T™, with its specialized Test-Stim complex, is able to decrease production of SHBG, thus increasing your bodystrong>s circulation of free testosterone in the bloodstream.* This free testosterone is now active and unbound, ready to exert its activity on your body. But N1-T™ doesnstrong>t stop there. N1-T™ yields another natural way to effectively increase natural testosterone through LH stimulation.* LH is a hormone that directly aids in the manufacturing of testosterone. An elevated level of LH translates into more testosterone circulating through your body. And remember now that there is less SHBG in the body, thus creating the scenario in which testosterone increased by LH stimulation can then reach your receptors and increase anabolism directly. Our exclusive Test-Stim complex also has the unique ability of increasing anabolic activity.* N1-T™ aids in preventing muscle-tissue breakdown by enabling greater amino acid uptake for enhanced nitrogen retention, accelerated glucose utilization/glycogen synthesis, and increased protein synthesis.* Now this all sounds great but without proper nutrient transport, these powerful compounds wouldnstrong>t be able to exert their full potent anabolic effects. N1-T™ answers this with a special patented ingredient that clinical testing suggests ensure optimal nutrient uptake, thus giving you the best bang for your buck.* As an ergogenic aid, N1-T™ will help you in increasing lean muscle mass, reducing fat mass, and improving overall muscle strength and size...* Everything a hard training athlete could ever ask for.

Universal Nutrition Animal Pak Reviews

Thu, 04 Mar 2010 11:39:48 -0600

by: MuSuLPhReAk

Description: The #1 selling training pak in the world for twenty three years straight. Since 1984, more competitive bodybuilders have cut their teeth on the Animal Pak than any other bodybuilding supplement in history. Why? Simple. Animal Pak gets the job done. It works. First time. Last time. Every time. Nature, in all her ingenuity, has designed the human body as the ultimate performance machine. Fact is, since the dawn of mankind, our bodies have changed very little. When it comes to feeding our muscles, we still need the nutrients we get from our diets. But when it comes time to grow our muscles in a freakish way, we need the right combination and mega-doses of essential amino acids, carbs, vitamins, minerals and essential fatty acids (EFAs). Only Animal Pak has what you need. You're the kind of primal beast who trains with Animal intensity. You need plenty of the above, plus that little something extra only Animal Pak provides. That's why we've also loaded the Animal Pak with performance optimizers such as PAK, IGF colostrum, nucleotides, lipotropics, L-arginine, Protogen A, eleuthero, and the like. In every pak, you're blasted with a dizzying array of over 55 key ingredients which are delivered in the right amounts at the right time, every time. Each of the 11 tablets included in each pak has been specifically formulated to deliver the goods. By taking the Animal Pak, you prevent the formation of nutritional gaps. Why should you care? The greater your training intensity, the faster and larger these gaps grow over time. When this happens you eventually hit a plateau. You stop growing. Maybe you've already hit this wall. To make matters worse, if you take other supplements, these same gaps begin to render those expensive supplements useless. Many of today's supplements rely on enzymes and other substances in your body to activate them. Nutritional gaps mean these key activators may not function at all, so you may be wasting all of your hard-earned money on supplements that won't or can't work. Consider the Animal Pak as the cast iron skillet of your supplement program, your body's first line of defense. If you train with weights, then you absolutely need to train with the Animal Pak. Remember, while most supplements have come and gone, precious few have stood the test of time. When you're ready for the best, step up to the most trusted name in serious bodybuilding nutrition: Animal Pak.

Universal Nutrition Ultra Iso Whey Reviews

Thu, 04 Mar 2010 11:35:00 -0600

by: MuSuLPhReAk

Description: Whey proteins are complete proteins that provide the essential aminos your body needs. It is rich in branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs) and glutamine. But not all whey proteins are alike. Some are cleaner and purer than others. Gram for gram, these superior whey protein isolates (WPIs) have more protein, less fat and carbs, than their counterparts, whey protein concentrates (WPCs). Ultra Iso Whey from Universal Nutrition contains only premium 100% ultrafiltrated whey protein isolates with zero carbs, zero sugar, zero fat, and zero lactose. While there are distinct differences between WPCs and WPIs, there are also differences between different WPI products, and some whey protein isolate products are purer than others. With Ultra Iso Whey we don´t add any gums, binders, fillers, and thickeners to weigh the shake down or interfere with the absorption of the protein. We also don´t use any aspartame. And because we use only ultrafiltrated whey isolates, Ultra Iso Whey preserves many of the important biological fractions found in whey including immunoglobulins, lactoferrin, GMP, and BSA. With our Ultra Iso Whey, you get a full spectrum whey isolate protein shake that mixes easily with a spoon and goes down easy. Best of all, Ultra Iso Whey is so clean, you can actually taste the difference.

Universal Nutrition Gain Fast 3100 Reviews

Thu, 04 Mar 2010 11:30:17 -0600

by: MuSuLPhReAk

Description: With Gain Fast 3100's "Get Big Quick" Formula, you get over 3100 calories from 150g of protein, 596g of carbohydrates, and only 15g of fat. Gain Fast 3100 comes enhanced with anabolic boosters, performance factors, natural plant sterols, EFAs, digestive enzymes, and muscle optimizers. So when you want to bulk up in the off-season, or you just want to add some quality mass, turn to Gain Fast 3100. If you turn back the bodybuilding clock, you'll no doubt remember that old stand by, the "weight gainer." You probably picked up an economy-sized bottle when you were playing high school football - before you became a competitive bodybuilder. Along with the Animal Pak, a quality weight gainer was probably one of the first supplements you ever used. For years, supplement companies sold tons of this stuff. Why? Because it worked. Today, the weight gainer has lost much of its popularity. And over the years, the weight gainer has changed very little. But whether you grew up bodybuilding in the 1980s, 1990s or today, one thing remains certain: to bulk up and put on quality muscle weight, you need plenty of calories. And when you can't eat any more, you need more calories. Gain Fast 3100 helps. Big time. For most of us, putting on weight is a simple process (for some, all too easy). Eat more of everything - quality protein, whole foods, vegetables, eggs, milk, fruits, good fats, and the like. For others, gaining weight is a difficult proposition. You have a hard time eating every three hours. You always feel full. Maybe you're a "hard gainer" who can't seem to put on weight no matter how you try or how much you eat. Gain Fast 3100 has been designed to fuel your body with up to 3100 quality calories per day. But sometimes, even mega-calories aren't enough. Sometimes you need something more, something like anabolic boosters, performance herbs, natural plant sterols, EFAs, digestive enzymes, and muscle optimizers. We're talking about ingredients like L-arginine, MCTs, IGF colostrum, L-carnosine, vanadyl sulfate, plant sterols (e.g., beta-sitosterol, stigmasterol, fucosterol, campesterol), inosine, ginseng, pyridoxine alpha-ketoglutarate (PAK), choline, inositol monophosphate, and other good stuff. Where else can you get this kind of formula? Nowhere else in the world. It's only available in Gain Fast 3100. With Gain Fast 3100's exclusive "Get Big Quick" Formula, you get over 3100 calories from 150g of protein, 596g of carbohydrates, and only 15g of fat. Find out why Gain Fast 3100 is our best-selling weight gainer, bar none. When you want to bulk up in the off-season, or you just want to add some quality mass, turn to Gain Fast 3100.

Universal Nutrition GH Stack Reviews

Thu, 04 Mar 2010 11:06:26 -0600

by: MuSuLPhReAk

Description: The GH Stack is a unique, "secretagogue" formula, which can work with your body to produce optimum levels of human growth hormone. GH Stack can help signal your pituitary gland to release more hGH through its unique formulation of L-dopa, 5-HTP, and Somatopro ATM, a complex consisting of key amino acid secretagogues in clinically-proven ratios. First and foremost, there´s L-dopa (levodopa), a metabolic precursor to dopamine. Available only by prescription in many countries, athletes have used L-dopa to stimulate endogenous hGH production in the body. Unlike amino acid secretagogues, L-dopa can enhance hGH release through an entirely different mechanism. In this way, L-dopa can work alongside Somatopro ATM to provide you with the best overall effects. The proprietary ingredients found in GH Stack are absorbed rapidly and assimilated efficiently. The secretatgogues are released gradually, for a sustained GH release. This effectively doubles your dose of GH-enhancing nutrients found in GH Stack. All in all, GH Stack will work more effectively and more readily than any other GH supplement out there. **This is an HGH Supplement not actual HGH.

Why should you choose Universal Nutrition´s Shock Therapy? It Works. If you want to get energized and motivated in the gym, Shock Therapy is for you. This formula will make for some very intense workouts that will help you put up more weight and will ultimately result in mass gains. Your body will feel pumped all day from the blood rushing to your muscle tissue delivering needed nutrients for real growth. We don´t use any sugar so there is no worry about fat gains. We use the best ingredients, from creatine all the way to our antioxidant blend. You won´t find another product like Shock Therapy; it is truly unique amongst pre-workout energizers and cell volumizers. It has a healthier formula. Since Shock Therapy helps your body produce more nitric oxide, you need an anti-oxidant complex to scavenge the harmful free radicals that are released as a result of the nitric oxide process. Our competitors aren´t keeping your health in mind; we are. It has a better formula. Shock Therapy uses R-ALA to help shuttle the creatine and nitric oxide stimulating components into circulation, whereas the competition either does not use any form of alpha lipoic acid or uses the standard ALA, which has been shown to be less effective than R-ALA. Many individuals do not like to ingest aspartame and prefer sweeteners such as sucralose. Shock Therapy does not use any aspartame, while some of the other popular products do.

Universal Nutrition Intra-Aid Reviews

Description: Proper workout nutrition (intra-workout) is an area that is being supported by a legit, growing body of science. Intra-workout nutrition represents the next big nutritional frontier for bodybuilders and weightlifters. Even so, many lifters often ignore this period. Why is targeted intra-workout supplementation so important? Here's a short list: proper rehydration, muscle and liver glycogen resynthesis, improved immune function, decreased muscle catabolism, increased muscle protein synthesis, increased muscle anabolism, faster recovery and training at a higher intensity. It's amazing how so many benefits can get overlooked. Intra-Aid brings intra-workout nutrition into the 21st century. It's a combination of key complexes that work in synergy to maximize the aforementioned benefits of workout supplementation. Intra-Aid consists of 5 potent components: fast-acting hydrolyzed protein, a highly specialized carbohydrate blend, critical electrolytes, an essential amino acid blend, and key ergogenic agents. Intra-Aid combines all of the scientific benefits of proper intra-workout supplementation, leaving out the guesswork. The gym water fountain and popular high fructose "sports" drinks may be good for the regular athlete, but for the serious weight lifter, they just can't compare. Think of Intra-Aid as first-aid for your workout.
