Protein Factory Hydrodipeptide

The "Window of Opportunity", what it means to me is that you have only a certain precise time to take advantage of a circumstance, and if you don’t take action during that time the advantage is lost. Sports supplementation focused around your workouts is all about taking advantage of this "Window of Opportunity", let me explain.

There is a common misconception that you build muscle during a workout. Quite the contrary, bodybuilding or any form of training is a stressful catabolic occurrence. You do not build muscle when you workout. Muscles are actually being “damaged” when you workout, which is catabolic. A sure sign that your body lets you know that you just busted your ass in the gym and that you are walking around in a catabolic state is the soreness you feel the next day after working out. Soreness is caused by the muscle fibers being torn. But this soreness could have been reduced drastically or even avoided all together the day before and a few minutes right before the workout that made you that sore. The “few minutes” before working out, is the "Window of Opportunity". During this window of opportunity should be the time for supplementation.

So what kind of supplements do you use during the window of opportunity? If you’re like most everyday Joe Schmo bodybuilders, you go on the internet and look to see what everyone else is using or look through a bodybuilding magazine to see what to use. Of course you are hit with the advertising of supplements to take pre and post workout. The supplement companies are smart and they know that this window of opportunity is the best time for supplementation and they know that you are looking for a supplement to take pre/post workout. But what they also know is that selling the boring products that actually work won’t cut it in the “snake oil” driven supplement world.

Now is the time to make change to something that will actually help you fight catabolism. Catabolism is a direct cause of your workouts. During your workout for example, when you are trying to rep out your heaviest weight you have ever done before to try to impress the attractive girl next to you on the pec deck machine, actually tear muscle fibers. Secondly your oxygen need is increased during training, this increases free radicals inside the body which damages the muscle cell. Lastly, the hormone cortisol is produced by the body to help it release amino acids from the muscles to help it produce energy. This in a nutshell these are the facts about muscle soreness and catabolism following bodybuilding. And what is also a fact is to combat catabolism we need carbohydrates, protein, electrolytes, and anti-oxidants.

Carbohydrates and protein is the most important supplements to use pre-workout and post workout. Carbohydrates “maintain higher levels of blood glucose, which slows the use of muscle glycogen and delays the need for the use of protein as an energy source”. Protein feeds the body amino acids which helps build the muscle. If you are a customer of Protein Factory you should already know that we have the best carbs and protein for pre/post workout.

Taking pre/post workout supplements actually began a while back with the use of BCAA supplementation and L-glutamine supplementation. Supplement companies knew that using something pre-workout would definitely work and work well, but the problem was finding something besides a protein and carb powder. Thus they created BCAA tablets and Amino Acid tablets, all in free form amino acids, in the hopes that they would get rapid and superior absorption product, thus resulting in a dramatic effect on the body. In theory it is a great idea and still is believed by thousands, if not millions of muscle bound wanna be’s today. It is pretty much common knowledge that if you can feed the body amino acids some way or another awesome results would incur.

Hydrodipeptide contains di and tri peptides, the final version of amino acids chains in the stomach that gets absorbed through the intestinal tract, and into the blood stream, in liquid form. This liquid form equates to a rapid and enhanced absorption. The liquid capsules (not gels I might add to avoid confusion) also contains Super Plasma protein, to supply protein subfractions, Whey Isolate GH (a super protein subfraction with a sick amount of growth factors) and Aminogen, to make any other form of protein taken with Hydrodidpeptide to work even better, because some people still want to use a protein powder and carb preworkout! Hence we have a liquid capsule containing di and tri peptides that gets immediately absorbed into the blood stream thus feeding the body vital amino acids to help build muscle.

I created Hydrodipeptide because I knew that a lot of people #1 didn’t want to use carbs before a workout because it could hinder fat loss capabilities. #2 A lot of people don’t want to drink a protein shake before working out. #3 I knew that if I could create a supplement to take pre-workout that was easy to use and that had a direct effect on sparing amino acids in the body thus reducing soreness, I would have a supplement that could produce some serious results.

When I first mentioned the “window of opportunity” in this article it was because using a supplement pre-workout is beyond a doubt the most important time to take something. Before it was a hydrolyzed protein and a carbs, now if that is not on option for you, Hydrodidpeptide is! It’s the perfect supplement to use during this “window of opportunity”. I can honestly say that Hydrodidpeptide is going to have a direct and dramatic effect on your body without question.
