You are not training for average results, so don't use average supplements ...
You always want more, faster, harder, better and stronger...
There are many different supplements systems claiming to help you to achieve your dream results faster than the others. However based on recent science in order to reach this goal your 24 hour window should be divided into slots each of which would reflect either preparation for workouts and getting ready to be at peak performance, hard physical activity at peak levels, immediate recovery within your anabolic window (30 mins after workout) and long lasting recharge of your "batteries" to get strong again on the next day.
PERFORMANCE FORMULA is targeting to address this, i.e. it's using latest science updates in fitness and health to analyze how our bodies react to nutrition intake before, during and after exercise. Don't forget recharging cycle during the night. As a result we have goal driven, results oriented supplements system allowing you to get ready, perform and adapt to new intense training while preventing muscles pain and injury.
If you use Shakeology already, you have your daily intakes of nutrients optimized, so, now its time to prepare to turn the volume up and prepare for maximum results.
So what is it that makes this system so special?
All of these components work together to prepare and support your body optimal performance, no matter what your current fitness level is or how ambitious are your goals. Created by Harvard trained scientists and development team lead by Dr. Nima Alamdari, PhD and reviewed by Beachbody Advisory board as well as Dr. Marcus Elliott, MD, founder of the world's leading athlete performance center Peak Performance Project (P3) and Dr. Francis Stephens, PhD, a world leader in exercise physiology and performance nutrition research.
Absolutely no artificial colours, sweeteners, flavours or preservatives. Fully plant-based extracts and phytonutrients only.
Details per element:
ENERGIZE - Pre-workout:
Prepares your body to workout hard by utilizing Beta-alanine, Low-dose caffeine and Quercetin. These three key elements helps you to have better focus and delay muscles fatigue time.
Beta-Alanine is an amino acid that makes carnosine, that buffers muscles acid build up during workout, so you last longer and can push harder. Ideal for HIIT (High Intensity Interval) training.
Low-dose caffeine is extracted from green tea. It helps to enhance your energy levels due to its ergogenic nature, improve reaction time, focus and reduce fatigue. In other words your body gets mental and physical boost.
Quercetin is a phytonutrient. Latest studies shows that it helps to improve exercise performance and recovery by increasing production of mitochondria - the "powerhouse" of our cells.
HYDRATE - During workout :
Personally love this one as it helps my body to compensate for the sweat and stay hydrated during my workouts. Drinking just water during exercise is not the most effective way to stay hydrated. The perfect balance of electrolytes, carbohydrates and water make HYDRATE so much better. Most of sport drinks are hypotonic and filled with sugar, so they can even dehydrate you as they are more concentrated than your blood hence slowing down absorption process. HYDRATE on opposite is slightly hypotonic and adding to your fluids level much faster.
When you workout you sweat, evaporate and get quickly dehydrated without even noticing it. Most importantly you loose water and electrolytes. Up to 6-7 litters per day. HYDRATE is designed to compensate for this.
RECOVER - Post Workout :
Provides proper proteins and nutrients to help facilitate muscle recover and repair while helping to reduce catabolic effect (muscle breakdown). It targets muscle glycogen recovery.
It has fast, intermediate and slow release proteins (whey, pea and micellar casein protein), provides sustained supply of amino acids which serves as a building blocks for your body. Also includes branched-chain amino acids (BCAA), which promote muscles synthesis. The ratio is 2:1:1 for Leucine: Isoleucine : Valine.
One of the main components is POMEGRANATE EXTRACT. It is used by athletes to alleviate soreness, stiffness and overall muscle inflammation after intense workouts.
RECHARGE - Nighttime recovery :
We all know most of the recovery is done during the sleep. What is most important that you need to be in "deep sleep" to recover effectively.The key components of RECHARGE are MICELLAR CASEIN PROTEIN and TART CHERRY. First helps muscle synthesis over night and helps to recover. Second, Anthocyanin rich cherry extract - is another phytonutrient helping naturally recover and fight inflammations while delaying muscle soreness. Both working together assure increase of endurance and recovery for athletes doing resistance training.
CREATINE :
Helps to enhance the gains of lean muscles, muscle strength and provide benefits for endurance athletes in cycling, running and swimming.
Its takes huge role helping to increase levels of phosphocreating, which used by ATP (adenosine triphosphate) for energy replenishment. Contains 100% creatine monohydrate, which is scientifically proven to be the most effective.
