Recovery

Outwork Recovery provides an evidence-based formula that will help you recover faster and build more muscle.* It doesn’t include low-dosed, throwaway ingredients with little research to back up their claims, or seemingly novel ingredients included simply to make the product appear innovative. Each ingredient serves a specific purpose (to make the best post-workout powder), and each one is fully disclosed on the label - nothing is hidden behind a proprietary blend.

Outwork Recovery is also formulated to work synergistically with Outwork Pre-Workout. While both work well as standalone products, they work even better together due to complementary ingredients and effects.

Outwork Recovery can help:

• Increase lean body mass*
• Improve recovery from workouts*
• Increase muscle protein synthesis and net muscle protein balance to help you build more muscle mass*
• Decrease excessive muscle damage*
• Reduce delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS) so you can get back in the gym*
• Increase androgen receptor density in muscle cells, making your current levels of anabolic hormones like testosterone more effective*

Creatine Monohydrate (5g per serving)

Creatine is a naturally occurring molecule that is synthesized in the liver and its benefits are well-documented. Creatine supplementation has been shown to increase muscle strength, and performance output [1][2] as well as improve body composition and lean body mass [3][5]. Additionally, creatine aids in recovery by delaying the onset of muscle fatigue [2]. While there are many different forms of creatine on the market, the overwhelming amount of research showing benefits of creatine supplementation has been performed using creatine monohydrate [4][5][6]. Studies on creatine monohydrate supplementation have shown that 5-10 g/d are optimal in maintaining whole body creatine stores [1][8] and that doses as high as 30 g/d for five years is generally safe and well tolerated [7]. Additionally, a dosing of 3 g/d of creatine monohydrate throughout the lifespan may delay or prevent the onset of health problems such as type II diabetes, obesity and metabolic syndrome [7][12].

The research data overwhelmingly show that creatine monohydrate is safe and effective. Other forms of creatine (ethyl ester, buffered creatine, hydrochloride, etc) are either less effective or of equal effectiveness but more expensive [9][10][11]. Creatine monohydrate has been demonstrated to saturate the muscle cell with phosphocreatine and has by far the most scientific data to support its usage [11]. Therefore, Outwork Recovery ensures that you are getting the best bang for your buck with a full dose of 5g per serving [1][8].

Betaine (2.5g per serving)

Betaine is a nutrient isolated from beets and found in a variety of animals, plants and microorganisms. In the human body, betaine is a highly effective osmolyte which helps to enhance muscle cell survival, increase cell synthesis, and maintain myosin ATPase activity during periods of stress [13].

Betaine supplementation has been demonstrated to improve strength and peak power output [14][15]. Betaine also increases endurance by extending the time until fatigue and protecting the body from dehydration [13][15]. Lastly, betaine supplementation has been shown to increase lean body mass [16][17]. With a research supported dose of 2.5 g of betaine per serving, Outwork Recovery post-workout helps to ensure that you get the best results from your workouts [13][14][15].

L-Carnitine L-Tartrate (2g per serving)

L-carnitine L-tartrate (LCLT) is a dietary supplement containing the levo-enantiomers of carnitine and tartrate [18]. LCLT supplementation may improve workout performance, but it has also demonstrated the ability to enhance recovery [21]. LCLT has been shown to improve blood flow and the delivery of oxygen to muscle tissue during and after exercise [19]. Additionally, LCLT may reduce muscle soreness [20][22], increase androgen receptor density in muscle cells [23] and increase lean body mass in the elderly [24]

Outwork Recovery provides a full dose of 2g of LCLT to reduce the post exercise muscle soreness and enhance time to recovery.*

Tart Cherry Extract (480mg per serving)

Montmorency tart cherries are extremely rich in anthocyanins, a major polyphenolic sub-class of flavonoids. Anthocyanins are also powerful antioxidants and help regulate metabolic dysfunction within the human body [25]. The high concentration of anthocyanins in Tart Cherry Extract reduces oxidative stress and inflammation which may improve workout recovery [25][26][27][28] Further, supplementation with Tart Cherry Extract has been demonstrated to decrease delayed onset muscle soreness during resistance training, thus improving recovery [29].

Outwork Recovery post-workout powder provides a full dose of 480 mg tart cherry extract powder to bring all the benefits and help you recover faster [25][26].

Ashwagandha (300mg per serving)

Ashwagandha is an adaptogenic herb also known as Indian Ginseng or Winter Cherry [30]. Adaptogens are compounds with phytonutrients that help to regulate the body’s metabolism in times of physical or mental stress. They help by normalizing system functions, building a resistance to future stress, and elevating the ability to function at a higher performance level [30].

Ashwagandha has gained significant interest in the exercise science realm for its ability to increase lean body mass, strength and recovery [30]. It has also been shown to improve mental well-being [31], reduce stress and anxiety [32], improve sleep quality [32] and increase testosterone levels [33].
