Side Effect Sports: Post Workout

For superior results, you need an effective post workout game plan. Side Effect's Post Workout provides our exclusive, highly soluble, Creatine Polyprotic and core BCAA's to assist in slowing muscle breakdown.* Along with our unique blend of scientific elements, Post Workout promotes energy refueling, amplified protein synthesis, and cellular restoration. *

Ion Pump Technology contains four key ingredients that work in sync to create our Ion Channel Transport.* Fructose 6 Phosphate and Fructose 1-6 Diphosphate is a phosphorylation (bonding between fuel and a protein) of the carbon 6 and carbon 1 molecule. Since Carbon is a basic element, your cells aggressively absorb this fuel. When we couple these two power sources with Succinic Acid (a huge molecule that donates electrons) we create an energy fusion that helps push our ingredients directly into muscles.* The best way to control this fusion is with Adenosine 3-5 cyclic Monophosphate. cAMP regulates energy levels in the cell, constantly cycling from high energy to low energy and back, sustaining our Ion Channel Transport throughout your workout. *

Side Effect creates a foundation starting with core building blocks you have come to expect from Post Workout products. Once we have our foundation, we design effective formulas with premium ingredients often unique to the sports nutrition field. Here's the science and benefits behind some of these ingredients:

Fructose 6-Phosphate Molecule

cAMP Molecule

Succinic Acid Molecule

Fructose 1-6 Diphosphate

Adenosine Molecule

TKG helps form the bioactive factors vital to cellular growth and maintenance. TKG competes with tryptophan (the amino acid precursor to serotonin) at the blood-brain barrier, supporting dopaminergic activity, which may help decrease fatigue.* Unlike free form L- amino acids, TKG can be shuttled directly to the muscle cells rather than being partially absorbed and used by the small intestines for nucleotide synthesis. *

AMP produces energy by giving up one of its phosphate groups through enzymatic action. The breaking of the actual phosphate bond produces a huge explosion of energy, promoting protein synthesis. *

A power molecule able to donate more than one proton. This extra proton transfer gives Creatine Polyprotic an extra blast of unique muscle-expanding power.* Creatine Polyprotic is highly water soluble...pushing directly into your muscles to support growth and volumizing effects. *

Our BCAA blend feeds your body an effective group of essential and non-essential amino's. L-Leucine, L-IsoLeucine, and L-Valine play a critical role in muscle development, because they are metabolized in the muscle rather than the liver; they can then be used for building new proteins or for energy.* L-Glutamine can help support healthy immune system function and reduce muscle breakdown. * L-Lysine HCL works with other essential amino acids to maintain growth, lean body mass, and the body's store of nitrogen. *

All muscles use Adenosine in the cytoplasm and nucleoplasm of a cell to produce natural energy. Making sure every cell has access to the necessary Adenosine is critical in promoting cellular health.* Working with 5-AMP, this dual ignition refuels your cells for your next workout! *
