Q: How does
Xtend work?
A: Xtend is formulated with a precise PentActive blend of key ingredients,
synergistically involved in cellular processes to optimize muscle performance
and response
Stage 1: 7000 mg of BCAAs, in a 2:1:1 ratio of Leucine:Isoleucine:Valine
is used to provide metabolic energy while you train, as well as to stimulate
muscle protein synthesis.
Stage 2: 2500 mg of Glutamine is used to increase extracellular concentrations
of Glutamine, which helps to promote muscle intracellular BCAA metabolism
down the correct energy and protein synthesis pathways via the BCAA aminotransferase
enzyme.
Stage 3: 640 mcg of Vitamin B6 serves as the rate-limiting cofactor
involved in optimal BCAA aminotransferase reactions.
Stage 4: 1000 mg of Citrulline Malate help support rapid ATP turnover
and lactate reabsorption to support higher training volumes at a given
exercise intensity. Citrulline also serves as a secondary signal to stimulate
muscle protein synthesis, most likely arising from its ability to promote
increased blood flow via increase nitric oxide (NO) and/or improving the
energy state of a cell by promoting lactate reabsorption .
Stage 5: 1171 mg of an extensively studied Electrolyte blend, consisting
of Trisodium Citrate Dihydrate, Potassium Chloride, and Sodium Chloride,
help to optimize muscle contractile function and promote cell hydration
under the most brutal of conditions.
