Monster Energy Nutrition
Any good sports drink like Gatorade?
I’ve tried powerade and Gatorade. Any good ones? (no monster or any other energy drinks. Please add nutrition facts!!)
When you drink you gotta have a special Brew with the right amounts of sodium, potassium and carbohydrates to bring your system back into balance. I prefer GU Brew Electrolyte Drink over every other sports drink I’ve tried. http://keeplookingbusy.com/itemDetails.aspx?id=B002IB0APY
Pleasant mild taste, works well for hydration. Not too sweet like some sports drinks, but not too salty.

Ultimate Nutrition’s Creapure 1000g $39.5 MUSCLE MAXIMIZER Description: MUSCLE MAXIMIZER Ultimate Nutrition� Creatine Monohydrate Helps Improve Athletic Performance To perform optimally, muscles need energy. The body provides the energy needed in situations requiring immediate, high-intensity actions, as in exercise, in the form of ATP or adenosine triphosphate. Since the body has only a limited supply of ATP, usually lasting only a few seconds of intense exercise, ATP is continuously produced to supply energy in order for the muscles to function. The burst of energy is produced by the breakdown of ATP when one phosphate group is released and packs considerable metabolic energy. The body uses creatine phosphate to quickly replenish ATP. The more energy the muscles store, the better they can perform in events, which require intense, immediate energy, such as weightlifting, sprinting, jumping, football, hockey and soccer. Since creatine is stored in the muscle as creatine phosphate, intake of supplemental creatine can increase the production of energy that enables muscles to perform at higher intensity. While the body produces its own supply of creatine, it is not sufficient to supply the muscle with the added energy necessary for intense performance. The benefits of creatine supplementation for endurance athletes have been actively researched. This research has established that creatine can, in fact, extend endurance at a relatively high dose of 20 grams per day. Creatine increases the muscle mass and muscle girth if taken along with a sustained exercise regimen. Initially it may also increase weight due to gain in the muscle mass. This increase may slow down some people, especially swimmers. The “slowing down” may be due to the highly aerobic nature of this exercise and should be reversible after sustained exercise. The ergogenic, or performance-enhancing, effect of creatine is best achieved by creatine monohydrate. Ideally, the increase of creatine in the body is achieved by a five-to-seven-day “loading” period followed by a maintenance period. Since more stored creatine will produce more energy, it is best to optimize its uptake into the muscle during the maintenance phase by supplementing it with carbohydrates. Carbohydrates increase creatine uptake into muscle and reduce its excretion in the urine. Supplement Facts: Serving Size: 1 Teaspoon (5 g) Servings per Container: 200 Creatine Monohydrate 5 g * *Daily value not established. Other Ingredients: Creatine Monohydrate. Directions: As a dietary supplement, take one rounded teaspoon, approx. 5 grams two times a day, evenly spaced, on an empty stomach. Optional 8-week creatine monohydrate loading and maintenance cycle: – Week 1: Loading (20g/day) – Weeks 2-5: Maintenance (10g/day) – Weeks 6-8 Off (no creatine) – Repeat Cycle |

Ultimate Nutrition’s Crea Max 144Caps $24.95 Builds, hydrates, and helps muscle recovery Description: ? Muscle First Aid Kit ? Ultimate Nutrition Creamax ? Builds, hydrates, and helps muscle recovery The major challenge for athletes and physical fitness buffs is to keep the muscles and brain energized. This is especially the case for endurance athletes who also need to recover their muscle power quickly after an intense workout and exercise. Muscle contraction and relaxation are driven by energy in the cells provided by the compound adenosine triphosphate (ATP). Muscles, however, have only a limited supply of ATP, and their levels are rapidly used up during exercise, particularly in short, intense bursts of anaerobic activity. Many athletes need immediate replenishment of energy in the muscle during demanding regimens, such as sprinting and weightlifting. In these situations, the body produces ATP, the energy currency in the cells, which powers muscle movement and control. How much and how efficiently ATP is produced depends upon the amounts of creatine phosphate stored in the cell. Creatine is the biomolecule which produces ATP. Creatine is indigenous to the human body and is produced by the liver and stored in the brain, skeletal and heart muscles where it serves as a ready pool to produce ATP. Creatine is the key substance that helps speed up the ATP refueling of the muscle. More creatine in the muscle yields greater energy production that allows muscle to work longer and at higher intensity. How does creatine help the muscle perform at higher efficiency and recover faster? Creatine saturates the muscle to convert it into ATP. This conversion takes place in the absence of oxygen and is, therefore, used as an anaerobic pathway for energy. Creatine is, however, more than just an ergogenic nutrient. It has a voluminizing effect on the muscle. Cell voluminizing, or cellular hydration, involves binding of water to the muscle fiber. This binding, in turn, gives rise to the “pumped” look. Since water is bound inside the muscle, athletes using creatine do not have the “puffy” appearance. In other words, the muscle looks larger but, more importantly, has improved strength and has high energy and intensity, allowing the athlete to recover faster and have more energy for each training session. Supplement Facts: Serving Size: 6 Capsules Servings per Container: 24 Creatine Monohydrate 2000 mg * L-Glutamine 2000 mg * L-Taurine 2000 mg * *Daily value not established. Other Ingredients: Gelatin and magnesium stearate. Directions: Take 6 capsules twice daily, evenly spaced between meals. For optimum results, take with 8 oz (237 mL) of fruit juice. |

Ultimate Nutrition’s DHEA 50mg 100Caps $23.95 Helps Increase Muscle and Decrease Fat Description: INCREASE MUSCLE DECREASE FAT Ultimate Nutrition DHEA Helps Improve muscle mass, strength, increase energy, feelings of well-being, insulin sensitivity, and cognitive ability For many years DHEA or dehydroepiandosterone, was considered a “junk” hormone since researchers could not attribute to it any specific function. In the past few years, DHEA’s image has been totally refurbished. It is the most abundant hormone in humans and other mammals and it plays a critical role in many different bodily functions. In fact, decrease in DHEA levels is being increasingly used as an indicator of reduced immune response, loss of libido and lack of a sense of general well being. Clinical studies over the past ten years suggest that DHEA may be the most critical single chemical in predicting someone’s health. The body produces DHEA in the adrenal gland using cholesterol as the starting material. It is metabolized in androstenedione which is converted directly into testosterone. Like testosterone (estrogen in women) and other critical hormones, DHEA levels peak in the second or third decade of life, after which decline begins. Roughly one-half of DHEA is lost in men by age 40. Reduced levels of DHEA signify reduced amounts of androstenedione, testosterone and other steroid hormone metabolites. DHEA directly affects glucose metabolism. High blood glucose inhibits growth hormone (GH), and low blood glucose stimulates growth hormone. Stimulation of growth hormone is beneficial to DHEA because it suppresses insulin. By the same token, fasting increases both GH and DHEA. Thus, the importance of DHEA in intense exercise and endurance training can hardly be overemphasized. Clinical results show that oral supplementation with DHEA can have numerous beneficial effects: ? Feelings of both energy and well being ? Improved insulin sensitivity and glucose tolerance ? Reduced risk of coronary artery diseases ? Lower obesity/waist-to-hip ratio ? Enhanced libido ? Reduced depression and increased cognitive ability Supplement Facts: Serving Size: 1 Capsule Servings per Container: 100 Dehydroepiandrosterone 50 mg Other Ingredients: Dicalcium phosphate, gelatin, cellulose, and magnesium stearate. Directions: One capsule daily with a meal or as recommended by a health care professional. Warnings: Not recommended for pregnant, nursing women or any person who is under 35 years of age.

Ultimate Nutrition’s Whey, Prostar� (Banana) 2lb $34.95 The Protein Powerhouse Description: ? The Protein Powerhouse ? Ultimate Nutrition ? 25 Grams of Protein Per Serving ? 6 Grams of BCAAs Protein is probably the most important supplement for all athletes, but it is especially indispensable for those involved in long-term, high intensity endurance training. It is the fuel for the build-up, mass and toning of the muscle. In fact, protein is essential for growth and development. The proteins that make up the human body are not obtained directly from the diet; rather, dietary protein is broken down into its constituent parts known as amino acids, which are the basic building blocks of life. That means that it is the amino acids, and not protein per se, which are essential nutrients. Of the 20 amino acids that the body needs to make protein, eleven are designated as nonessential amino acids because they can be produced by the human body from other amino acids and do not need to be obtained from the diet. The remaining nine amino acids cannot be synthesized by the body and are, therefore, called essential amino acids. These amino acids must be obtained by degradation of the dietary protein. All of these essential amino acids must be present in the body in order for it to build and repair muscle. The manner in which the body uses protein during and after exercise is quite different from the way it utilizes carbohydrates or fat for energy. In the hours after exercise, the body begins to build the so-called structural proteins from amino acids for muscle repair and growth, and remodeling the tissues needed for performance. This is one of the reasons that athletes should pay particular heed to nutrition for fast and complete recovery and make it an integral part of their workout regimen. Exercise duration and intensity are important factors in determining which of the nutrient fuels are burned to gain energy. An exercise regimen comprising of low- to moderate intensity of long duration necessitates large quantities of fuel, oftentimes more than carbohydrates and fat reserves in the body can provide. Therefore, the body begins to utilize structural and functional proteins during long-term aerobic exercise. In contrast, high-intensity exercise of short duration mostly uses glucose, which spares the protein reservoir of the body. To meet the needs of athletes, Ultimate Nutrition has designed 100% Prostar Whey Protein to contain all the essential and nonessential amino acids to build the muscle after intense exercise of both short and long duration. It is a customized blend of all the nutrients, including immune enhancing factors from whey protein by a specialized process. Since exercise can take a toll on the immune system, 100% Prostar Whey Protein is the nutritional supplement of choice for those who lead an active lifestyle. 100% Prostar Whey Protein is not just for the athlete however. It supports the muscle maintenance, buildup and toning among individuals who are merely “weekend warriors.” Ultimate Nutrit |
