About Post Gold:
Today’s modern day athlete demands more from cutting-edge science and expects a post-workout to deliver a faster, stronger, leaner recovery. Although protein is an essential part of post workout recovery, it is just one piece of the puzzle that our bodies need. Post Gold has the rest and it brings a whole new meaning to the word GAINS! Key ingredients include BCAAs, Beta Alanine, Betaine, GABA, Glutamine, and Choline Bitartrate.
The BCAAs: leucine, isoleucine, and valine, make up 35-40% of the essential dietary amino acids in body protein and 14-18% of total amino acids in muscle protein.1,2 Based on these percentages, it is no surprise that BCAAs have become an essential part of any athlete’s daily routine. Recent studies have shown the promising effects of ingesting BCAAs to reduce muscle damage, fatigue, and soreness, as well as increase energy metabolism, and enhance overall exercise performance .3-5 In addition to BCAAs, Beta Alanine is another amino acid that has gained tremendous popularity as a vital component to any muscle building and recovery matrix. Beta Alanine has been researched extensively and literature shows significant decreases in perceived exertion, increases in muscle carnosine levels, and improvements in muscular endurance.6,7Increase Growth Hormones
Betaine is an organic compound that is found naturally in a variety of food sources including sugar beets, wheat bran, spinach, shrimp, and much more.8 Its main function is to protect cells under stress and has also been shown to increase growth hormone levels by approximately 6.37% and IGF-1 levels by 11.6%, thus enhancing the anabolic signaling environment in the body and protein synthesis in muscle.8,9 In addition, GABA, another revolutionary ingredient found in Post Gold, has gained increasing popularity for its effect on growth hormone levels.GABA (Gamma Amino Butyric Acid) is a neurotransmitter with the primary role of sending chemical messages throughout the brain and nervous system. Studies have shown that GABA supplementation at rest and post exercise increases growth hormone levels by 400%, therefore playing an extremely important role in the growth and maintenance of skeletal muscle.10,11Reduce Fatigue and Body Fat
Glutamine, another key ingredient in Post Gold, has shown great promise for increasing growth hormone levels. Studies have found that supplementation with Glutamine resulted in an astounding 430% increase in plasma growth hormone.12 The final piece to this recovery puzzle is Choline, a member of the vitamin B-Complex family. Supplementing with Choline can minimize the development of exercise-related fatigue since plasma choline levels are significantly reduced following intense exercise. Choline supplementation also contributes to a significant increase in lipid metabolism and studies have shown as much as a 10.23% reduction in body fat.13 These ingredients are backed by innovative and ground-breaking research, delivering a formula designed to take recovery and muscle gains to the NEXT LEVEL!

100% Crystalline Branched Chain Amino Acids (BCAAs): BCAAs are essential amino acids that include leucine, isoleucine and valine. They are needed for the maintenance of muscle during physical stress and exercise. Research shows that supplementation with branched-chain amino acids can prevent central fatigue by tightly regulating the influx of tryptophan to the brain. Supplementation before and during exercise has been proven to enhance performance. BCAAs function as anabolic agents and induc...
