Supports Muscle Pumps and Explosive Workouts

The Ultimate Pre-Workout Supplement Experience*!

What Kind Of An Athlete Are You? That’s the question you have to ask your- self when deciding which pre-workout product to use. And what is it you want out of that pre-workout product? Do you want to become STRONGER and throw MORE WEIGHT around in the gym? Do you want to look in the mirror and see the massive, lean and vascular physique you’ve always wanted? Do you want to step into the ring with the competition and DESTROY THEM? What kind of an athlete would you be if MAXimizing your genetic potential were NOT your goal? We have a feeling you know what we’re talking about. This is why you have put your trust in a product name with over a half a decade of accolades and clinical studies. A pre-workout that provides a TRUE ATHLETE like you with the latest and most advanced array of ingredients ever seen in a pre-workout powerhouse. The original SuperPump250® was arguably the best loved pre-workout product ever designed. However, research advances and Rich Gaspari’s commitment to making the ABSOLUTE BEST products is unwavering, which is why the best got even better with the creation of SuperPumpTM MAX.

Gaspari Nutrition doesn’t rely on cheap stimulant laden formulas, cleverly crafted to claim they contain high concentrations of efficacious ingredients in order to win your support. Those do nothing more than get you buzzed like a junkie and that’s about it. We rely on the ingredients backed by CLINICAL RESEARCH and actually use them in the doses VALIDATED by that research. To take it a step further, Gaspari sponsors clinical research on its FINISHED PRODUCTS to show you that they are not only safe and effective, but also unmatched in term of giving you the results you EXPECT when spending your hard earned cash on a pre-workout product. So the question stands, “What type of an athlete are you?” Do you want a quality pre-workout product that will help you become bigger, stronger, and an absolute force to be reckoned with? Or will you sell yourself short in this most important time in your life with products that give you nothing more than a stimulant buzz, a hard crash, and potentially cause counterproductive vasoconstriction? How do you think a TRUE ATHLETE would answer that question? REAL ATHLETES train with MAX. Do you?

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Q: What does Gaspari Nutrition mean by asking “What Kind Of An Athlete Are You?

A: Let’s be honest, you go to the gym to look your best and push yourself to the extreme. Unfortunately, a few companies have disgraced the pre-workout market with “concentrated” formulas that really don’t support helping you look your best and to be a better athlete, rather they just “crack you out.” That’s all you can expect from under dosed formulas chock full of stimulants. SuperPump MAX can help you become the athlete you’ve always wanted to see in the mirror so we want to you to ask yourself, WHAT KIND OF ATHLETE ARE YOU?

Q: Some products advertise they are “concentrated” and don’t need large formula to get the job done for an athlete. Why don’t you guys follow this line of thinking?

A: We want to bring you the best and give you ingredients in the doses that actually increase your performance, your strength, and increase lean mass that is based on science, not smoke and mirrors. These “concentrated” formulas consist largely of stimulants with under dosed ingredients like beta-alanine and arginine alpha ketoglutarate (AAKG). As an example beta- alanine is clinically proven to work at 3.2 grams per day and should be used multiple times per day. That is why we include it in Anavite at the clinically validated dose and not under dosed in our pre-workout that is to be taken on training days only. AAKG must be used at 12 grams a day for an effect and it’s proven not do anything at 4 grams. These other companies utilizing ingredients like these in “concentrated” formulas are grossly under dosing them while making claims based on research that doesn’t even apply to their formulas. This is downright deceptive and they prey on unsuspecting consumers. The math just doesn’t add up so don’t be fooled!

Gaspari uses use clinically validated doses of citrulline, creatine, carnitine tartrate, leucine, etc to get the job done right; you have to use the correct doses which often can’t be fit into one large scoop or into a 5-6 gram doses in the popular concentrates.

Q: Why do you utilize so many vitamins and minerals in your formula?

A: Certain minerals serve as electrolytes that help the body maintain proper muscle function and hydration while training. Ingredients like magnesium, calcium, potassium, and sodium are crucial to this process. We utilize the best forms of certain B-vitamins such as methylcobalamin (B12), inositol hexanicotinate (B3), and pyridoxal 5′-phoshate (B6) to ensure proper absorption. These b-vitamins are crucial to energy metabolism, synthesis of new cells such as the red blood cells that carry oxygen to your muscles, and the repair of damaged cells to support recovery. There is nothing worse than cramping up or becoming dehydrated, is there? You want enhanced recovery don’t you? You won’t see these ingredients in the popular concentrate because they are expensive! How could they forget the electrolytes? Don’t sell yourself short with pre-workouts that skimp out on these crucial factors you’ll need while training that will ensure you are the best athlete on the field, in the gym, or in the ring.

Muscle Pharm Combat Protein Powder

Muscle Growth! Advanced Time Release Protein – Feed Your Muscles Up To 8 Hours

COMBAT POWDER is MusclePharm’s technologically advanced Protein Superfood. Athletes and Bodybuilders have long known that high-quality protein is the key to building and maintaining lean muscle, while supporting a healthy body composition and fueling fat loss.* Protein is the most important macronutrient for muscle growth, mass and power.* High-quality protein may support muscle growth, recovery, and the integrity and health of all body tissues.* Active bodies require MORE high quality protein for optimal performance – COMBAT POWDER was designed to meet that need.*

1. Feeds the anabolic and recovery pathways within the body to support muscle growth, fuel recovery and maximize the body’s adaptive response to hard training.*

2. 25 grams of the high-quality PROTEIN BLEND, in a great tasting, easy-to-mix shake.

3. Added Digestive Blend to ease absorption.*

* Whey Protein Isolate

- Highest available yield of protein, gram for gram, of any whey protein source, WPI is rapidly digested and absorbed.

* Partially Hydrolyzed Whey Protein

- Hydrolyzed whey is protein that’s been broken down into fast-absorbing peptides. The fastest absorbing of all forms of whey, hydrolyzed whey hits the bloodstream first, providing a rapid infusion of muscle-building amino acids.*

* Micellar Casein

- micellar casein digests very slowly and infuses amino acids over several hours, which may protect muscle tissue from breakdown over time.*

* Whey Protein Concentrate

- closer to the whole food sources than other whey proteins, concentrate contains real food subfractions such as alpha-lactoglobulins and lactoferrins.

* Egg Albumin

- highly bioavailable and well tolerated by most individuals, egg albumin has a high BCAA content and arginine. Egg albumin is a contributor to hormone production and the muscle building process.*

Digestive Enzyme Blend:
Digestive enzymes break down food along the digestive tract so that nutrients can be absorbed into the bloodstream. COMBAT™ contains 60mg of a Digestive Enzyme Blend to aid in the digestion and absorption of the key muscle-building proteins contained herein. The body cannot absorb what it cannot break down. The added Digestive Enzyme Blend supports the utilization of COMBAT’s muscle-building protein component.*

Added BCAAs and Glutamine:
The Branched Chain Amino Acids, L-Leucine, L-Isoleucine, and L-Valine, are the most critical of the essential amino acids for the maintenance, repair and building of muscle tissue.* The BCAA’s (especially L-Leucine) have been shown to support protein synthesis and therefore, muscle growth.* L-Glutamine is an amino acid that has been surmised to support healthy immune system function.* L-Glutamine has also been suggested to help with recovery.* Together, the extra Branched Chain Amino Acids and the added Glutamine in COMBAT fortify the muscle-building and recovery properties of this, our most technologically advanced protein super food available.*

What is Combat Powder?
Combat Powder is a precision-engineered matrix of three different types of whey protein (hydrolysate, isolate, and concentrate), along with egg albumin and micellar casein. Because each of these distinct sources of protein digest at varying rates, not only are amino acids rushed into the bloodstream within minutes of consumption, but they are continuously fed into the body for up to 8 hours!* Combined with added BCAA’s, digestive enzymes, and extra glutamine, Combat Powder is the ultimate protein super-food!

When should I use Combat Powder?
The most important times are immediately upon awakening, right after training, and just before bed, as these are vital periods for the initiation of the growth process. However, Combat can also be used at ANY time of day as a substitute for whole food protein.

Why not use just whey? Why use a blend like Combat Powder?
While whey is one of the most important and popular proteins around, it has its limitations and is best used as part of a blend of proteins. Whey protein is digested very quickly, which causes a rapid rise in blood amino acids. While this seems like a great thing, there remains a problem. These amino acids are cleared from the system rapidly, which is excellent for the short term, but does not cover the period of time between meals. However, with the addition of egg albumin and micellar casein you will slowly trickle feed amino acids to your cells over a period of up to 8 hours!* This makes COMBAT our ultimate anabolic and anticatabolic protein matrix!

Will I have stomach issues while using Combat Powder?
COMBAT contains some of the purest proteins currently available and is very low in lactose. Additionally, a special digestive blend has been added to the formula to enhance digestion and assimilation of the protein constituents. For most, COMBAT provides no stomach discomfort whatsoever.

Mix 1-2 scoops of Combat Powder with 8-12oz of water.
Vary the amount of water used in order to achieve the desired consistency. To increase your protein intake and achieve a delicious milkshake taste, use skim or low fat milk instead of water. Consume Combat Powder 2-3 times daily or as needed in order to fulfill desired daily protein intake. Other possibilities include blending Combat Powder with ice and your choice of fruit for a delicious smoothie, or adding Combat Powder into your favorite baked goods to improve their protein content.

Scientifically Advanced Research Protocol

Each and every product sold by MusclePharm® is the end result of a long development process involving leading nutrition scientists doctors, and top professional athletes in the country.

Step 1: The Vision

CEO, Brad Pyatt, President and fitness icon, Cory Gregory, and top sports nutritionist, Eric Serrano, MD take the first step by envisioning a new nutritional supplement with a specific set of performance properties.

Step 2: The Formulation Process

Dr. Eric Serrano, the leading sports nutrition doctor in the US, who is the company’s medical director and formulator, begins putting together several scientifically advanced – often breakthrough – combinations and ratios of ingredients resulting in superior formulations.

Step 3: Athlete Protocol Test

At the world reknown MP Performance Center, preliminary formulations of new products are tested on elite professional athletes. Product samples developed at the MP Performance Center are also given to athletes and strength coaches in the NFL, MMA, MLB, and other organizations for further analysis. MusclePharm is the first to use the field as it’s lab, truly combining science with athletics. At our 30,000 sq. ft. training facility we use state-of-the-art technology like Omega Wave, DEXA, and Kaiser performance equipment to gather cutting-edge feedback about our formulations. Our medical advisory team, strength coaches, and top fitness experts evaluate the results to give us a practical read on the effectiveness of our products.

Step 4: Research and Product Testing

After athlete testing, the formulation is forwarded to Dr. Jeffrey Stout, a professor of exercise physiology at the University of Oklahoma, who performs an in-depth review of ingredient ratios and combinations to ensure it is sound from both a nutritional and health standpoint. Dr. Stout oversees clinical trials so that product claims are not based solely on published data from individual ingredients but from finished goods.

Step 5: Compliance and Safety

All products are checked against internationally published lists to ensure that no banned substances are included. All production runs are conducted in a state-of-the-art facility that follows government-approved Good Manufacturing Practices (cGMP). Before being made available to the public, all products are analytically verified for purity and verified for label claim accuracy to ensure that the information we put on the label is 100% accurate. Following testing, reference samples are kept so that we can hold our products to the highest quality assurance standards.
