Pyridoxine HCI (Vitamin B6), a water-soluble vitamin, helps use protein to build body tissue and aids in the metabolism of fat. The need for vitamin B6 is directly related to protein intake. As the intake of protein increases, the need for vitamin B6 increases. Vitamin B6 is depleted during exercise. Exercise stresses metabolic pathways and decreases the nutrient status of Vitamin B6. Vitamin B6 is also critical to the processing of amino acids, the building blocks of protein used in the growth, repair and maintenance of body tissues. About 70-80% of the Vitamin B6 in the body is located in muscle bound to glycogen phosphorylase, an enzyme involved in releasing glucose from glycogen. About 10% is located in the liver. The remainder is distributed among the other tissues. Athletes need additional B6 because of their high protein intakes and increased use of glycogen as a fuel.
Methoxyisoflavone (also known as 5-Methyl 7-Methoxyisoflavone) is an anabolic compound that builds muscle mass by putting the body in an anabolic state. When the body is in an anabolic state it uses protein to build muscle mass. Our bodies are always alternating between anabolic and catabolic states. Methoxyisoflavone increases protein synthesis (and nitrogen retention) and is therefore said to be anabolic. This is critical to anyone desiring to build muscle mass because if the body is in an anabolic state you are going to build muscle at a rapid rate.
Benefits of Methoxyisoflavone
Lean body mass, increased recovery times and superior strength gains have been reported by World class athletes. Methoxyisoflavone has been demonstrated to result in increased nitrogen retention and increased muscle growth. Finally, research indicates that Methoxyisoflavone has very strong cortisol-suppressing effects. Methoxyisoflavone does not lead to increased oestrogen levels and androgenic side effects. In fact it has been shown to reduce body fat, lower cholesterol and improve the body's ability to utilize oxygen.
Beta- Ecdysterone is a high potency natural phytochemical extracted form the herb Cyanotis Vaga and is standardized to 97%. Until recently it was not readily available because there was no efficient way to extract it. Prior to a year ago or so, a pure kilo sold for $20,000.00. The breakthrough technology of invitro cell cultivation provided the purity and concentration to make it economically viable for supplementation. Everyone now has the opportunity to improve performance, decrease fat and increase lean muscle mass. Scientific research clearly demonstrates the effectiveness of Beta- Ecdysterone with no reported adverse side effects. In one study conducted by B. Ya. Smetanin in 1986, 117 speed skaters were tested for work capacity, body weight and lung capacity. Ecdysterone supplementation resulted in an increase in all of the aforementioned parameters. In another study conducted by S. Yu. Simakin, 78 highly trained athletes were either given a placebo, protein or Ecdysterone with a protein supplement. Results were best for the group consuming Ecdysterone with a protein supplement. In this group, a 6 to 7% increase in lean muscle mass was observed after just 10 days, and fat content was reduced by an average of 10% for males and females. This safe and effective compound is a revolutionary advance in the health, fitness and bodybuilding world. For best results, take Ecdysterone with protein- rich meals.
AdenosineTriPhosphate (ATP) is sometimes called the body’s “common energy currency” or “high-energy compound”. ATP, as it’s name exhibits, contains three phosphate groups. The energy in the phosphate bonds is greater than the energy in most other chemical bonds. The body uses ATP to carry its energy currency, build body structures and do other work as needed. It is the primary fuel for muscles. It is most often obtained from creatine supplementation. Numerous studies have concluded that creatine supplementation enhances fat- free mass, physical performance and muscle morphology in response to resistance training. Fatigue sustained during short-term, high-intensity exercise in humans is associated with the inability of skeletal muscle to maintain a high rate of anaerobic ATP. Clinical studies demonstrate improvements in performance due to parallel improvements in ATP resynthesis during exercise. Other studies also provide evidence that energy metabolism and O2-induced pulmonary vasodilation is accompanied by increased ATP levels.
