legal performance enhancement

Hi {NAME}, Legal performance enhancers. Sounds like I’m selling something out of the trunk of my car. I’m not, I’m just looking at the literature, so let’s dive in. 1) Taurine - This one is taking the world by storm. 1-6g per day taken 2 hours up to 10 minutes prior to a workout an increase your time to exhaustion, your vo2m, your lactate clearance, your time trial time and improve your recovery. This is not weak data either, this comes from a study in the International Society of Sports Nutrition and it looked at 10 different studies. Essentially taurine can help us use fats a bit better during exercise, thereby sparing glucose and increasing our ability to perform. It is extremely inexpensive and safety trials show it to be very safe as well. 2. Tongkat Ali - Yep, I said it. The natural testosterone booster that Andrew Huberman talks about a lot. Because it not only increases free testosterone, but also decreases estrogen, it’s really a (potentially) potent way to get more power. In fact a study in the Journal of Preventative Medicine published that resistance training WITH tongkat ali increased peak power output more than just resistance training alone. For men specifically, this could be a great little crutch. 3. Colostrum - This one is newer to my arsenal and its because of the recovery aspect. As I get older, what breaks me down is my inability to recover as fast. Trust me, I have considered even going on testosterone replacement to help this, but I am holding off for now. Not opposed to it at all, I just don’t want to take that leap just yet. Colostrum has been a pretty big hammer for me lately. It’s helped my recovery a safe 10-15% by making feel less sore and ready to take on the next workout. Makes sense with how it mechanistically works as well. Likely has something to do with the immunomodulating effects. I use one called ARMRA, it’s the only biopotent technology colostrum that is NOT heat treated, so it retains the active compounds and over 400 living, bioactive nutrients. This link gets you 15% off when you try it and use code THOMAS: [( Give it a few days when you try it. My first dose I did not notice anything, but then after the 3rd day, I could feel how much more powerful my recovery was. I can see why they try to make this stuff hard to get. [Try it HERE.]( 4. Beta-Alanine - So old school and been around forever! This stuff is making a huge comeback. What beta alanine does is help to form carnosine in your body. Carnosine buffers the hydrogen ion build up that gives you the "lactic acid burn" which is actually just hydrogen. So essentially, your time to exhaustion is pushed back immensely. There was one study that looked at rowers in a 2,000m trial. They shaved 13% off their time when they had beta-alanine in the mix! I would recommend 3-6,000mg beta alanine. But start small. 5. Caffeine… Do I really need to explain? - Caffeine can improve muscular endurance, movement velocity and muscular strength, sprinting, jumping, and throwing performance and sport-specific actions. This could include basketball dribbling, soccer shooting etc. However, the strongest effect is on aerobic performance. - The optimal dosage is around 3–6 mg/kg body mass. And it is best taken in the hour leading up to performance. I know this sounds like a lot, but starter smaller. - One of the best aspects of caffeine for performance is the mental clarity it can offer – it has been shown to boost cognitive function in terms of attention and vigilance. 6. Essential Amino Acids - Whoa, just aminos? According to a study in Frontiers in Physiology, EAAs taken before resistance exercise seem to prolong the ability to provide higher isometric muscle contraction and may also reduce fatigue later on in workouts too. This simply means that you may be able to life heavier weight for longer and induce more strength/hypertrophic gains. In other words, if you’re NOT training fasted, these might be a great choice. They do, however break a fast. But personal experience, I do notice an improvement in time to exhaustion when I sip on them during a workout. If you just like to do fasted workouts but are not on an OFFICIAL fast, I think they’re fair game. But remember…. EAAs and NOT BCAAs. Big difference! If I had to pick two to try out the gate, I would recommend TAURINE and Colostrum. Two biggest levers I have pulled recently.
