Going “Ape Sh*t”
Ape Sh*t (adj.) - To behave in an explosive manner; to act without regard, due to becoming enraged or extremely angry.
It takes a certain confluence of events to drive someone absolutely ape sh*t.
In the wrong setting, being in such an untamed fury can spell disaster, but in the right place (i.e. the gym), going ape shit can set the stand for record-shatter workouts, where it just rains PRs for the entire session.
Wouldn’t it be great to have that same feeling day after day in the gym, without actually having a shitty day?!
Enter Ape Shi*t Pre Workout
WHAT IS APE SH*T?
Ape Sh*t is a high energy pre workout that supports increased energy, aggression, motivation and focus along with increased blood flow to boost performance and pumps.*
APE SH*T INGREDIENTS
L-CITRULLINE
L-Citrulline is a premium nitric oxide support ingredient. It is an amino acid found prevalently in the flesh and rind of watermelon. Studies show it is superior to the old favorite NO-booster (L-Arginine) due to L-Citrulline’s higher bioavailability.[1]*
With greater nitric oxide production, the stage is set for greater vasodilation, vascularity, and PUMPS!*
There’s more to L-Citrulline than just vein-gorging pumps though, it’s also is known to support increased athletic performance.*
Studies indicate that supplementing with L-Citrulline prior to training may enhance ATP production, boost endurance, and support lean body mass gains.*[2,3]
BETA ALANINE
Tired of burning out mid set and leaving gains in the gym? Then, beta alanine might be just the thing your training needs.*
When exercising, hydrogen (H+) ions accumulate in muscle tissue which drops the pH in muscles leading to an acidic environment. Once this occurs, that painful “burning” sensation hits like a Mack Truck, terminating the set.*
Beta Alanine helps delay the onset of fatiuge and "beat back" the burn, by increasing carnosine concentrations in skeletal muscle.[4]*
Higher levels of carnosine improve body’s buffering capacity to shuttle out those acidic ions, delaying that burning sensation, and increasing training capacity.*
The end result is greater stamina, strength, and endurance.[5,6,7] Something any athlete, not just weightlifters, can benefit from!*
TAURINE
When you’re going Ape Sh*t in the gym, you’re bringing everything you got, and that inevitably means you’re sweating your ass off! While that’s a strong indication you’re pushing the limits, it’s also a sign that you may be losing valuable electrolytes needed for hydration and muscle contraction!
To support hydration and performance, Ape Sh*t contains TWO full grams of L-Taurine, a conditionally essential amino acid that functions as an osmolyte in the body.[8]*
Taurine helps pull water into muscle cells, which improves hydration, cell volumization, muscle fullness, and endurance.*
There’s more though!
Taurine is also a highly underrated focus booster, as vast reserves of taurine are found in the brain, where it serves to enhance cognition and attention.[9]*
AGMATINE SULFATE (750MG)
Agmatine is a multi-faceted nutrient that has a number of alluring properties.*
Agmatine supports nitric oxide in two ways by stimulating eNOS and inhibiting arginase, the enzyme that degrades arginine (the amino acid responsible for N.O. production).[10]
Limiting arginase activity supports greater Arginine levels, promoting greater nitric oxide production and longer-lasting muscle pumps!*
Agmatine has also been noted to modulate pain receptors which may allow for longer training capacity.*
CHOLINE BITARTRATE
Hitting the gym with unbridled aggression and rage is great if it’s focused on a singular goal. Without focus, that aggression just turns you into the typical bro jerk who’s screaming and dropping weights all over the ground -- and NO ONE likes that guy.*
Choline is needed for the production of the learning transmitter acetylcholine, which promotes focus as well as the “mind-muscle connection”.[11]*
CAFFEINE
Caffeine is the consummate pre-workout stimulant.*
It picks you up when you’re low on energy and helps motivate you to get the job done! For these exact reasons, Untamed Labs has included a synergistic trifecta of caffeine to provide both immediate and long-lasting energy.*
Caffeine Anhydrous provides the jumpstart needed to get going in the gym, and the addition of Caffeine Citrate and Infinergy™ Dicaffeine Malate serve to further enhance energy levels, thereby helping Ape Sh*t hit harder and last longer.*
The unique combination of caffeine variants is what sets Ape Sh*t from any other pre-workout on the market.*
No crash, no headaches, no jitters -- just pure energy, focus, and motivation!*
YOHIMBINE BARK EXTRACT 8%
Yohimbine is the active component of yohimbe extracted from Pausinystalia Yohimbe.*
Yohimbine is an Alpha-2-Adrenergic receptor antagonist that works by increasing adrenaline and noradrenaline levels in the body, stimulating the “fight or flight” response, and thereby promoting alertness, energy, and motivation.[12]
Yohimbine also supports fat burning by inhibiting a regulatory process in fat cells that stunts fat burning.*
TOOTHED CLUBMOSS (STANDARDIZED TO 1% HUPERZINE A)
Huperzine supports increased acetylcholine levels by inhibiting acetylcholinesterase, the enzyme responsible for acetylcholine breakdown.*[13]
Limiting acetylcholinesterase activity helps further enhance acetylcholine levels and prolongs its actions, promoting stronger focus and mind-muscle connection.*
There’s more though!
Huperzine is also noted to possess neuroprotective qualities as it defends against glutamine (the neuron death molecule)[14], and supports the creation of new brain cells![15]*
SUGGESTED USE
Consume 1-2 scoops with 8-10 oz of water 15-20 minutes prior to training to unleash your inner beast!
