Fuel Intra-Workout

Fuel Intra-Workout contains a blend of branched chain amino acids (BCAAs), essential amino acids (EAAs), hydration and an electrolyte mix.A combination of these ingredients will ensure your body receives the much needed amino acids that are required for muscle growth and repair. The hydration and electrolyte mix ensures your body is well hydrated and topped up with the essential minerals to support healthy bodily function. Fuel is gluten free, dairy free and vegan friendly.

Essential Amino Acids: 10,000mg

Essential Amino Acids (EAAs) are amino acids that are referred to as ‘essential’ as they must be obtained through your diet. They consist of Leucine, Valine, Lysine, Phenylalanine, Threonine, Isoleucine, Histidine, Methionine and Tryptophan. Almost any source of protein will provide at least some EAAs, although not always in great amounts.

Essential Amino Acids has been shown to:

Improving muscle protein synthesis [1,2,3,4] 

Reduces muscle fatigue [5,6] 

Recommended dosage based on scientific research suggests a minimum of 3000-6000mg per serve in supplementation. Essential Amino Acids are found in any source of protein, so our daily intake for these is very high. For more information on Essential Amino acids view here

Coconut Water Powder: 1200mg

Coconut water powder is a convenient and natural way to maintain hydration and electrolytes. Coconut water is a known source of key electrolytes – sodium, magnesium, calcium & potassium which help to maintain the body's hydration and essential mineral levels.

Coconut Water Powder has been shown to:

Assist in rehydration and post recovery [7, 8, 9]

Recommended dosage based on scientific research suggests a minimum of 1000-1200mg per serve in supplementation for the benefits of post workout rehydration.

Taurine: 1000mg

Taurine is often referred to as an amino acid. Amino acids are the building block of proteins. But taurine is actually an amino sulfonic acid. It is not used to build protein but has many other important functions in the body. Taurine has been attributed to improving physical performance such as power output and aerobic capacity.

Taurine has been shown to:

Improve cardiovascular health [10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15]

Improve muscle and exercise performance [16, 17, 18]

Recommended dosage based on scientific research suggests a minimum of 500mg-2000mg per day although the upper limit for toxicity is placed at a much greater level and high doses are well-tolerated. For more information on Taurine view here.

Sodium: 200mg

Sodium is an important mineral in the body. Among many other functions, it is important for helping to maintain fluid balance in the body and is also lost in the sweat at a much greater quantity than other electrolytes (such as potassium and magnesium).

Sodium has been shown to:

Play a vital role in athletes healthy [19, 20]

Improving physical performance [21]

Rehydration [22]

Recommended dosage based on scientific research suggests is around 2300mg of sodium per day although with intense exercise it will likely increase this amount.

Potassium: 200mg

Potassium is an essential mineral vital for the proper functioning of all living cells. It is one of the most abundant positively charged ions (cation) in the human body, present in high concentrations in muscles, bone, liver and red blood cells.

Potassium has been shown to:

Improve regulation of the fluid within the cell [23]

Improve Muscle contraction, maintenance of proper pH within the body and normal growth and muscle building [24,25]

Recommended dosage based on scientific research suggests is around 4.7g/day although with intense exercise will likely increase this amount.

Calcium Carbonate: 200mg

Calcium carbonate is made of calcium, oxygen, and carbon. Calcium, being the most abundant mineral in the human body, accounts for 1-2% of its weight.Every cell in the body needs calcium to work. This essential mineral supports the bones, heart, muscles, and nervous system [26, 27].

Calcium has been shown to:

Improve intense exercise [28, 29, 30, 31]

Maintaining Normal Blood Pressure [32]

Bone Strength [33]

Recommended dosage based on scientific research suggests is around 1000-1200mg per day. Calcium is considered dangerous if overdosing for long periods of time [34]

Magnesium: 200mg

Magnesium is the fourth most abundant mineral found in our body [35]. It is essential to all living cells and vital for numerous physiological functions [36].

Magnesium is required for the production of ATP (the main source of energy in our cells) [37], and the production of DNA, RNA, and proteins [38].

Magnesium has been shown to

Support bone health [39]

Improve muscle contraction and relaxation [40,41]

Support heart rhythm and blood pressure [42]

Assist in stabilizing blood glucose levels, and regulating sugar and fat metabolisms [43, 44]

Increase neurotransmitter production and regulation [45]

Support neural function [46]

Support the immune system [47]

Recommended dosage based on scientific research suggests is around 600mg of magnesium per day although with intense exercise it will likely increase this amount.

Purpose

When we engage in exercise, our body constantly breaks down and builds up muscle tissue, making it essential to get proper nutrition to help the muscle rebuild and grow stronger. Certain amino acids, like essential amino acids (EEAs) and branched chain amino acids (BCAAs), are vital when it comes to supporting the growth and recovery phase. Fuel Intra-workout provides you with a powdered blend of plant based amino acids to fuel your most intense and enduring workouts.

Fuel Intra-Workout was formulated to provide you with the nutrients of the EAAs to support muscle growth, recovery and performance. Fuel is tailored for people who involve themselves in rigorous exercise and require the additional support of aminos, hydration and electrolytes
