Betaine
Betaine is an amino acid found in various foods such as beets. While research indicates that betaine supplementation can improve liver function and digestion and also reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease, it was included in Primed Capacity for its ability to improve muscle performance, specifically muscle power, endurance, and muscle growth acceleration and fat loss.
Research shows that 2-3 grams may be used to increase physical performance and Primed Capacity delivers 2.5 grams per daily serving.
Beef Liver
Grass-Fed Beef Liver is one of the most nutrient dense foods and serves a powerful combination of heme iron and vitamin B12 that can help prevent low energy and fatigue as well as improving red blood cell formation for increased oxygen transfer to working muscles.
Heme iron comes from meat, poultry and fish and is much more bio-available than non-heme iron and is highly important for physical performance, oxygen delivery to cells and recovery capacity. Vitamin B-12 plays a major role in energy and can be highly beneficial to red blood cell production to help increase endurance and improve recovery time.
The abundance of other nutrients found in Grass-Fed Beef Liver Anhydrate (Vitamins A, C, D, K, and E, B-Complex, Iron, Choline, Copper, Zinc, CoQ10, Chromium, Phosphorous, Magnesium, Selenium and more) also improve cellular function, support healthy joints, ligaments & tendons, improve immune health as well as heart and liver health, assist in energy metabolism and a wide array of whole body health.
A daily serving of Primed Capacity provides 3 grams of Grass-Fed Beef Liver Anhydrate which is the equivalent of one ounce of fresh, raw whole bovine liver.
Primed Performance offers the Best Pre Workout Formulas with ingredients and clinical dosages backed by science.
Beta-Alanine
The research behind the ergogenic effects of beta-alanine are impressive and Primed Capacity provides the clinically effective dosage of 4.8 grams per daily serving. Scientific studies prove that beta-alanine increases the working capacity of muscles if you take at least 90 grams over a 28-day period (an average of 3.2 grams per day), as well as extending endurance, speeding muscle recovery and building strength.
Cordyceps
Cordyceps are a species of fungus that thrive in mountain environments and may enhance ATP production, increase lactate threshold and oxygen capacity, fight free-radicals, reduce fatigue, and increase energy levels among other health benefits. This ingredient has been popular among athletes since 1993 where multiple Chinese runners shattered track and field records at the Chinese national games and their coach claimed their success due to a formulation of Cordyceps.
These studies show an improved tolerance to high-intensity exercise (with additional improvements in VO2 max with chronic use) as well as an increase in overall exercise performance, enhanced cognitive health, and increased hypoxia tolerance. Promising studies have also been conducted in mouse models that resulted in higher levels of ATP and lower levels of lactic acid as well as effective anti-fatigue properties.
Primed Capacity includes a hefty 2 grams of a very high quality and potent Cordyceps Militaris (fruiting body) per daily serving.
Creatine
Creatine is a natural compound made up of amino acids and is among the most well-researched and effective athletic supplements. Creatine is essential in regenerating ATP (the most basic unit of cellular energy) and can rapidly produce energy during activity to enhance exercise performance as well as help you to more quickly gain muscle and strength. With a vast amount of readily available studies done on creatine, here are a select handful to further show the benefits of creatine:
-
Creatine monohydrate supplementation on lower-limb muscle power
-
Creatine supplementation on muscle power output in elite youth soccer players
-
Effect of creatine supplementation on jumping performance in elite volleyball players
-
Effects of creatine supplementation on anaerobic capacity of elite wrestlers
-
Creatine supplementation improves the anaerobic performance of elite junior fin swimmers
It is relatively standard protocol to supplement with 5 grams of creatine (Monohydrate) daily, and Primed Capacity offers just that.
