The science behind our Pre Workout - Humping and Pumping

Humping and Pumping is more than a pre workout. It contains effective and functional ingredients that will not only increase your energy and motivation, but also reduce muscle and mind fatigue so you can improve your performance.
Why we have decided to create a Pre WorkOut
The market is full of energy drinks and pre workout products, most of them, if not all full of synthetic ingredients like insane high doses of caffeine and very low doses of vitamins from the wrong source. Many of us, don't want to get a massive kick before going to the gym and being hiper for many hours, not being able to concentrate after training or being able to sleep properly. Besides the high doses of caffeine, most of these products don't really have any beneficial ingredients for your health or your performance. These products normally have cheap and non effective ingredients like BCAAs and low doses of vitamins, minerals and that's about it.. totally ineffective. Many of our athletes were asking for something to support their training for those days that they feel tired or very sore and specially for competition time when they want to be totally wired up but they don't want to crash in the middle of the training/competition. Also they were very worried about the inability to sleep after taking energy drinks. Natural caffeine from coffee or guarana and a combination of beta alanine with creatine in our hydraforce, was our recommendation for many years, so at some point we decided that we needed to look a bit more into designing the best and healthiest pre workout possible.The science behind each ingredient
We wanted to provide a beneficial effect on concentration, energy, motivation, blood flow and reduction in lactic acid. These are the main burdens for many people when training high intensity , endurance sports or strength and condition. We will share with you the science of each ingredient and why we chose this exact quantity. Everything has been supported by double blinded clinical trials, open studies of each ingredient and valuable scientific evidence
Taurine
Taurine has been shown to have several health benefits, such as a lower risk of disease and improved sports performance 1,2. In human studies, taurine has been shown to remove waste products that lead to fatigue and cause muscle burn. It also protects muscles from cell damage and oxidative stress, normally occurred when training. 3,4,5 Some other findings in different studies, it increases fat burning during exercise ,6 Human studies indicate that trained athletes who supplemented with taurine improved their performance. Endurance athletes(most of the amateurs) have been able to cover longer distances experiencing less fatigue ,7,8.
Caffeine
The great debate, is it good or bad for you, improve your training or it can actually be detrimental due to the fact that increases heart beat. Well here is the reason why caffeine can be one of the best allies you can have for training but even more your job. Caffeine is a natural stimulant most commonly found in tea, coffee, and cacao beans. It works by stimulating the brain and also your central nervous system, helping you stay alert, relentless and preventing tiredness. Once ingested, caffeine is quickly absorbed from the gut into the bloodstream. However, caffeine’s main effect is directly on the brain. It functions by blocking the effects of adenosine, which is a neurotransmitter that relaxes the brain and makes you feel tired , 9 Normally, adenosine levels build up naturally over the day, making you increasingly be more tired and causing you at the end of the day wanting to go to sleep. Caffeine helps you stay awake by connecting to adenosine receptors in the brain without activating them. This blocks the effects of adenosine, leading to reduce the feeling of being tired , 10 It can also increase blood adrenaline levels and increase brain activity of its neurotransmitters dopamine and norepinephrine , 11. This combination can also stimulates the brain and promotes a state of alertness and focus. Because it affects your brain, caffeine is often referred to as a psychoactive drug. Additionally, caffeine tends to exert its effects quickly. You can feel the effect in 20 mins and up to 1 hour.
May boost metabolism and fat burning.
Because caffeine's ability to stimulate the central nervous system, it can increase metabolism by up to 11% and fat burning by up to 13% , 12, 13. As an example, consuming 300 mg of caffeine per day may allow you to burn an extra 79 calories daily, however we don't recommend this large amount of caffeine per day , 14
Here is the big deal, what is the difference between natural caffeine and synthetic caffeine.
Synthetic caffeine is also use in many energy drinks. Synthetic caffeine undergoes many steps to be converted from its initial form as ammonia. Generally, it is exposed to harsh chemicals during production, such as methylene chloride, ethyl acetate and carbon dioxide. Furthermore, synthetic caffeine glows – a rather frightening look – which is removed by rinsing the caffeine with sodium nitrite, acetic acid, sodium carbonate and chloroform.What are other natural alternatives?
Caffeine is found in plants such as cacao, coffee, yerba mate and guarana beans. Natural caffeine is rarely found on its own; it is often present with a range of vitamins and methylxanthines also found in the plant. These vitamins and methylxanthines balance the lift and fall of the caffeine in your system and assist in delivering it to your body in a steady manner. This promotes a more sustainable energy boost than synthetic caffeine does, enabling mental clarity and focus for a longer period. A sustained release of caffeine can prevent sudden jitters and subsequent crash commonly associated with synthetic caffeine products like energy drinks. Because of this more gradual release, natural caffeine doesn’t instigate side effects such as nervousness, difficulty sleeping as much as synthetic caffeine.ViNitrox TM
Optimized physical capacities by delaying the fatigue barrier by 13%, betters blood flow.- THE HEALTHY PERFORMANCE ENHANCER.
- Amp up Nitric Oxide levels.
- Improves muscle performance by breaking through the fatigue barrier.
- Powerful and natural antioxidant.
- ViNitrox TM is a unique proprietary synergistic combination of apple and grape polyphenols, well known for its anti aging and antioxidant properties.
Main benefits
Healthy blood flow is linked with production of Nitric Oxide (NO) , in latest in vitro studies, ViNitrox has shown to increase NO levels. The latest clinical study was conducted on 50 athletes aged from 25 to 44. Results showed that athletes who took ViNitroxTM and made an intense effort, improved their physical capacities:- Increases physical training timing by 10%.
- Optimized physical capacities delaying their fatigue barrier by 13%.
- It offers outstanding properties on performance improvement and an extension of the effort duration. An in vivo study shows protective properties
- A decrease of 74% of oxidative stress.
Beta alanine
No, It's not a third lung as Mr. Fraser stated. But, Beta Alanine reduces lactic acid build up, which leads to reduce fatigue. So how Beta Alanine works➡️
Citrulline
Many studies Suggest, Citrulline can boost exercise performance, due to its capacity to increase blood flow, citrulline has been studied within both endurance and strength-based exercise fields. Endurance Exercise Studies As a rule of thumb a single dose of citrulline does not seem to improve endurance exercise performance (19). This is a common practise in many supplements. This means that although Citrulline may not allow more oxygen to be used by the body, it could improve oxygen use in the muscles that are in used. This may ultimately result in better exercise(endurance and strength performance. This has been demonstrated in cycling studies, where performance(improving fatigue barrier) was increased by taking citrulline supplements. In one study, cyclists taking citrulline were able to improve their fatigue barrier and cycle 12% longer before exhaustion than those taking a placebo or not taking anything at all. (20). Taking Citrulline for seven days can also improve power output during cycling. That’s how much force can be produced in a certain amount of time (21).Arginine
A 2017 randomized study in 56 male soccer players found that treatment with 2 grams of L-arginine daily for 45 days significantly increased sport performance, compared with a placebo group (22), helping the body to create Nitric Oxide, improving blood oxygenation.Rhodiola
A natural substance that increases your body’s resistance to stress in different ways. Rhodiola has been used in Russia and Scandinavian countries traditional medicine for centuries. Studies have found rhodiola may help strengthen the body’s natural response to physical
