C4 Pre Workout Blue Raspberry 30 Serves Cellucor

$69.95

C4 is a pre-workout product born out of the labs of Cellucor. The fourth generation of C4 is the next level of refinement and innovation. The formula is now higher in strength and now includes the ingredient Teacor which enhances energy that comes on more rapidly and lasts longer. It has been manufactured to enhance strength, endurance provide a level of explosiveness to your workout. This is a very unique supplement because it contains nitrate and creatine combined to greatly enhance muscle growth and strength.

Key Ingredients:

Beta alanine: Is known as a non-essential amino acid which is converted inside the body into a natural chemical compound known as carnosine. Carnosine has an important role in normal functioning of the body including the adequate functioning and development of the muscles, heart and many other organs. Carnosine increases physical endurance by providing electrical nerve signals to the required muscle groups. The fundamental role of beta alanine once conversion has occurred is to provide a barrier and reduce the accumulation of acidic residue during a workout. This assists in the reduction of lactic acid accumulation which contributes to a reduction in muscle fatigue.
Citrus Aurantium (Bitter Orange): Is a plant that is used to make medicine which has many important uses. Bitter orange is commonly used in supplement to improve appetite and promote weight loss. Bitter orange is also effective in regulating blood sugar levels and fat levels, stimulating circulation, purification of blood, preventing kidney and liver diseases and as a sedative for sleep disorders.
Creatine Nitrate: Is a form of creatine where the molecule is bound to a nitrate group. Creatine Is an organic, water soluble substance that forms the important building blocks of muscle and has an important role in supplying energy to muscle cells during high intensity activity. It is used as an energy source by the skeletal muscle which is one of the important building blocks of muscle. Creatine is naturally produced by the body and is found in small quantities in animal products. The body stores creatine until it is required to create ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate) which is the substance used to manufacture energy. Creatine is often utilized during a high intensity exercise to enhance physical performance and increase muscle protein synthesis. Creatine doesn’t cause an increase in muscle fibre however, it does increase the water content of muscles making them appear larger. Over time, creatine can cause real fat free mass because of its strength building properties.
Arginine AKG: Arginine is one of a number of ingredients that is necessary before a workout. This is because arginine improves the nitric oxide levels in the blood vessels thereby improving the oxygen carrying capacity of the capillaries and enhances the blood supply. A serving contains 1000 mg of arginine as Arginine Alpha-Ketoglutarate which according to research increase strength.
Vitamin C (ascorbic acid): Contains 250 mg of vitamin C, which plays many roles in our body. The antioxidant and tissue-repairing properties are predominant roles of this water soluble vitamin. It is especially important to form collagen which is the basis of tissue, blood vessels and ligaments. It also decreases inflammation that is common among athletes after intense training.
Caffeine: Is found naturally in tea, coffee and chocolate where it also comes in supplement form. Caffeine enhances mental alertness, reduces drowsiness and improves coordination.

We believe Boomers is the best natural protein powder because it is sourced from only the highest quality milk from grass fed, hormone-free cows, it contains abundant naturally-occurring branched chain amino acids (BCAA’s) and 3 essential amino acids that produce glutathione which is vital for recovery, growth and disease resistance.

Boomers whey protein powders are produced using the most delicate and in our opinion, the best possible extraction method, being ultra-filtration and cross-flow microfiltration. The manufacturing process is all done cold so that the end result is undenatured whey protein, the best possible amino acid profile with a great tasting natural flavour. By using this strictly controlled manufacturing process and only the highest quality raw materials, there is no need for us to “spike” the powder with additional amino acids for example.

What is in the bag? When we say 100% whey protein, we literally mean it. There is nothing else in the bag other than premium quality, natural protein powder. During manufacture a negligible amount (about 1%) lecithin is added so that the powder will mix easily. Boomers adds no flavouring, sweetener, bulking agents, additives, preservatives or anything else. Boomers is just the good stuff – Nothing else!

Some suppliers blend their protein powders – Boomers has never done this, not since the day we were established in 1997.

A commonly asked question is what is the difference between Boomers Whey Protein Isolate (WPI) and Whey Protein Concentrate (WPC)?

They are similar products and it essentially boils down to personal preference and budget. WPC requires less processing during manufacture and so it is less expensive. Some people prefer WPC over WPI for these reasons. When whey protein powder is made, the filtration process removes some of the naturally occurring carbohydrate and fat. For WPI, additional filtration occurs to remove almost all of the carbohydrate and fat in order to “isolate” the protein.

It is common to hear that WPC is for adding weight and WPI is for “leaning out” or that WPI is “better” than WPC. The facts are that the average difference will be only a few kcal per serve (depending on the brand) so in reality, both can be used for either goal.

Boomers 100% Creatine Monohydrate

Our “go to” supplement for anyone looking to get the most out of their training in the gym or other athletic activity.
Inexpensive and very effective.
Very fine micronised powder that mixes easily in water and is highly absorbable.
For most people, a 3 to 5 grams (5 grams = 1 teaspoon) per day creatine dosage is sufficient to achieve full saturation of the muscles within 2 to 3 weeks of continued use.

Why Creatine Monohydrate?
Other forms of creatine supplements are available, and may claim to be absorbed quicker or you need less because it’s concentrated for example. Creatine monohydrate saturates creatine stores 100% and is the cheapest available option.

What is creatine and how does it work?
Creatine is found in meat and fish, but some is “cooked off” during a meal preparation. Most people can store and use much more than is found in a regular diet. For an example, you need 1.1 kg of raw beef to get 5 grams of creatine (Harris, 1992). For most individuals, you get a benefit from creatine without "diminishing returns" from 0.05 grams of creatine/kilogram of bodyweight (Examine, 2016). This translates to 5 grams per day for a 100 kg individual, many users opt to increase intakes to 5-10 grams per day because it is an inexpensive supplement and there is the possibility of increasing the effects.

Creatine works in your phosphocreatine energy system to create ATP (energy) through the phosphagen energy system, this is the “shortest” energy system lasting 10-30 seconds, it resynthesizes stored creatine phosphate in skeletal muscles. Any athlete who expends very large amounts of energy in short time periods benefits the most from creatine monohydrate supplementation. Supplementing with creatine may help you in increasing the length of time you can use the phosphagen system and the amount of times you can resynthesize creatine phosphate for more ATP production, for instance grinding out an extra few reps or sets or holding on to a sprint for longer.

Research and FAQ about Creatine...
Is Creatine Safe?
Creatine is one of the most well-researched supplements available, it is safe to use (Shao, 2006). If there are issues it is likely to do with taking too much too quickly or from not drinking enough water when you are supplementing creatine. Issues with bloating, diarrhoea and cramping have been noted but mainly with insufficient water intake (Groeneveld, 2005).

Do I need to cycle or load Creatine?
In our view, cycling creatine is unnecessary, it has not been shown to have any benefit and long-term creatine use has been shown to have very few side effects in most individuals (Groeneveld, 2005). Loading creatine monohydrate is useful if you want to saturate the creatine content in your muscles faster - Take in 4x the regular daily intake for one week (Examine, 2016). Be careful with jumping straight into loading if you’ve never tried creatine before and drink plenty of water!

When is the best time to take Creatine?
Our advice is take your creatine at whatever time of day is most convenient, whether it be in the morning, just before or just after exercising - It really comes down to personal preference.

In our view, exactly when you take creatine probably makes little difference because once your body has reached full creatine saturation (within 2 to 3 weeks of continued use) it is always readily available to your muscles. In addition, regardless of the time of day you take your creatine, it will eventually be absorbed by the muscles.
