PRE-WORKOUT

Responsible for the little tingles, beta-alanine will boost your performance during high-intensity exercise lasting from 1 to 10 minutes.

Beta-alanine combines with histidine to form carnosine, which is then stored in the muscles. This carnosine plays a crucial role during intense exercise, neutralising the hydrogen ions (H+) produced during the effort, and thus maintaining an optimal muscular pH. By reducing muscle acidity, carnosine helps prolong exercise and delay fatigue. This buffering capacity significantly improves endurance, particularly beneficial for short, high-intensity exercise, enabling the muscles to work longer and more efficiently.

Glycerol promotes cellular hydration by attracting water into muscle cells. This translates into a more pronounced sensation of muscle 'pumping'. This can not only increase the feeling of muscle congestion, but also help maintain better vascularity during exercise.

Glycerol is hygroscopic, which means it has the ability to attract and retain water. When ingested, it helps to increase water retention in the body. 

By increasing plasma volume and improving hydration, glycerol helps maintain a better level of endurance. Athletes can exercise for longer before experiencing signs of fatigue linked to dehydration. Good hydration helps regulate body temperature, which is crucial for athletes who play sports in hot environments or during intense training sessions.

 Some studies suggest that glycerol may help reduce the perception of exertion during exercise.

L-tyrosine is an amino acid precursor of dopamine, a neurotransmitter associated with motivation, concentration and alertness. Experience improved mental clarity and concentration during your training sessions.

L-Tyrosine is metabolised to produce catecholamines such as dopamine and noradrenaline. It is also used in the production of thyroid hormones.

L-Tyrosine is able to cross the blood-brain barrier. Once absorbed by brain cells, it is converted into dopamine by a series of enzymatic reactions. Dopamine can then be converted into noradrenaline by the action of another enzyme.

In studies of strength training, Rhodiola Rosea increased strength and power when taken just before training. Rhodiola Rosea supplementation also reduced the rate of perceived exertion in several studies. Other studies have shown that Rhodiola Rosea can reduce fatigue and improve speed and endurance.

Rhodiola supplementation of between 200 and 680 mg/day has been shown to improve physical performance, while a dose of between 100 and 576 mg/day can reduce mental fatigue. (The higher concentration of rosavin and salidroside in our Rhodiola, compared with that used in the studies, guarantees that you will obtain the results mentioned).

Rhodiola rosea is known for its potential to help the body cope better with stress. It helps to reduce the perception of exertion. You could therefore better tolerate the stress induced by intense exercise.

Electrolytes play a key role in the transmission of electrical signals between nerve and muscle cells. By maintaining an adequate electrolyte balance, you can optimise neuromuscular performance.

In addition, electrolytes are involved in numerous enzymatic reactions in the body, including those involved in energy production.
This also optimises your hydration levels.

Caffeine is a central nervous system stimulant that can help increase mental alertness, improve concentration and boost your energy levels.

Caffeine has a chemical structure similar to that of adenosine, which allows it to bind to adenosine receptors without inhibitory activity. In other words, caffeine 'blocks' these receptors and prevents adenosine from binding to them.

By blocking adenosine receptors, caffeine allows other neurotransmitters, such as dopamine and noradrenaline, to become more active. These neurotransmitters are associated with stimulation, alertness and increased energy.
