EFAs are those necessary fats that we as humans are unable to synthesize in our bodies and must be obtained from either diet or supplementation. Just like essential amino acids (EAAs as found in Animal Nitro), and other essential micronutrients such as vitamins and minerals, we need optimum amounts in order for the body to function properly, let alone to make gains in lean mass. Getting the proper EFAs isn't always easy, especially when they are hard to obtain with a typical diet. A typical diet consists of an overabundance of saturated fats, trans fats, and those fats from plant sources (think of common cooking oils) usually overloaded with omega 6 compounds, as they are the easiest and most economical to get your hands on. Omega 6s are important, as they are EFAs too. But it's not just the types of fats. It's also the ratios. More on that later.

| Content | Gaspari AminoMax 8000 is a scientifically designed blend of whey concentrate, micellar casein and hydrolyzed lactalbumin from whey protein, containing very low molecular weight proteins, di- and tripeptides and individual amino acids infused with additional L-Taurine, creatine and BCAAs, proven to be exceedingly beneficial to all types of athletes and bodybuilders. This unique, innovative formula provides the educated consumer with a highly useful and bioavailable product that delivers a broad array of the very building blocks you must have to grow and maintain skeletal muscle tissue and mass. The hydrolyzed protein used in AminoMax 8000 is rich in di- and tri-peptides to insure super fast absorption for super fast delivery to your muscles.
In addition to those fast acting di-and tri-peptides, Gaspari Nutrition added extra Creatine, L-Taurine, L-Leucine, L-Isoleucine and L-Valine to AminoMax 8000 to optimize the benefit the serious athlete can see from using this dietary supplement, L-Leucine is an essential amino acid, meaning the body is unable to produce it on its own; thus, it must be obtained externally from food sources or through dietary supplements such as AminoMax 8000.
L-Leucine helps to repair muscles, regulate blood sugar, and provide the body with energy. It also increases production of growth hormone, and helps burn visceral fat, which is located in the deepest layers of the body and the least responsive to dieting and exercise.
L-Leucine is one of the branched chain amino acids (BCAAs) and is considered the most effective BCAA for preventing muscle loss because it breaks down and is converted to glucose more quickly than the others. Increased glucose supplies prevent the body’s cannibalization of muscle for energy during intense workouts, so it is no surprise that this amino acid supplement is popular among professional bodybuilders. L-Leucine also promotes the healing of bones, skin, and muscle tissue after traumatic injury, and is often recommended for those recovering from surgery.
L-Taurine is the most abundant free amino acid in the body. It is an important component of bile acids, which are used to absorb fats and fat-soluble vitamins. It also helps regulate your heartbeat; maintain the stability of cell membranes; and regulate the activity of brain cells. L-Taurine may also increase the action of insulin, improving glucose tolerance and enhancing antioxidant levels – which are important functions to help increase lean muscle mass. Large amounts of L-Taurine are also found in skeletal muscle, where it is believed to play an essential role in reducing muscle damage from intense exercise, and improving performance. Exercise depletes the muscles of L-Taurine, making dietary supplementation with AminoMax 8000 beneficial for anyone concerned with getting the maximum benefit from their exercise training program. | Dr Zaks 40g Protein Pasta
Dr Zak’s believe that their High Protein Pasta is the cleanest high protein pasta on the market. By combining two great protein sources with traditional Durum Wheat, we have turned one of the most staple food sources that traditionally delivered high levels of carbohydrate, into a protein packed reduced carb winner. | There's no feeling like it anywhere... The "pump". It's the sensation that has the dedicated among us coming back to the gym day after day, year after year. Yeah, admit it - it's an addiction. But the pump is much more than a feeling, a fleeting rush... The pump is essential in our sport, for it signals the start of new muscle growth. With each pump-inducing rep, nutrient-rich blood floods the working muscle cells, engorging them. This process of "cell volumization" kick starts the anabolic process. Enter Animal Pump.
Built on the proven foundation of creatine, Animal Pump is no passing fancy. It's a no bull, high octane performance supplement designed to help you blast through plateaus and preconceived limitations. Utilizing a unique, advanced matrix of the most cutting-edge forms of creatine, we created Animal Pump for the serious lifter--for traditional creatine non-responders and for those who hate the dreaded creatine "bloat".
In addition to a full daily dose of creatine (patented and proven forms including MCC, CEE and TCM), you also get: (1) a fusion of a swelling NO Blast Complex; (2) a shocking Energy Rush Complex; (3) a special antioxidant blend needed for NO products; and (4) potent cell volumizers, all wrapped up in a special nutrient transport complex. From top to bottom, Animal Pump is complete and comprehensive--you get everything you need, precisely dosed in a single convenient "pack".
So gone are the days of taking 3 or 4 different products together. You don't have to figure out what to mix with what, or spend an arm and a leg on buying several supplements. Just a pack of Pump a day and you're good to go. How can it be any easier to make gains? Animal Pump. Simple. Complete. Effective. Guaranteed. |
One of the key components to bodybuilding progress is consistency - paying your dues day in and day out in the gym. The cumulative effect of this daily wear and tear over the weeks, months, and years, can be profound. When you're building a house, a big one, you need to make sure the foundation is rock solid because that house puts tremendous pressure on the foundation.
Now your body's foundation is your joints, ligaments, tendons, and all the connective tissue - the necessary stuff that supports your muscles, your training. The harder you train, the more massive amounts of weight and the numerous sets and reps performed in a typical workout, the more stress you put on your foundation. This constant pounding can take its toll, weaken it. And when a foundation crumbles, the house comes tumbling down.
Animal Flex is designed to help strengthen your body's foundation, to help protect your joints from the daily grind brought about by heavy duty weight training. Each pack of Animal Flex consists of several key joint protection complexes: (1) a potent joint construction complex to help repair connection tissue; (2) a lubrication complex to help cushion the joints from lifting; (3) a support complex to help promote rehabilitation and reduce soreness; and (4) a key vitamin/mineral support blend to help underscore optimal joint health. Animal Flex is your armor against the rigors of iron warfare. It is complete, comprehensive and effective. | EFAs are those necessary fats that we as humans are unable to synthesize in our bodies and must be obtained from either diet or supplementation. Just like essential amino acids (EAAs as found in Animal Nitro), and other essential micronutrients such as vitamins and minerals, we need optimum amounts in order for the body to function properly, let alone to make gains in lean mass. Getting the proper EFAs isn't always easy, especially when they are hard to obtain with a typical diet. A typical diet consists of an overabundance of saturated fats, trans fats, and those fats from plant sources (think of common cooking oils) usually overloaded with omega 6 compounds, as they are the easiest and most economical to get your hands on. Omega 6s are important, as they are EFAs too. But it's not just the types of fats. It's also the ratios. More on that later.
EFAs have been clinically proven to exert positive effects in many areas, including-balancing insulin levels, thermogenesis, anabolism, hormone synthesis, fertility, prostaglandin function, immune function, repair of cellular membranes, enabling cells to obtain optimum nutrition and more. For the bodybuilder, EFAs are vital for optimal metabolism, hormone production, cardiovascular health, peak performance, reducing exercise soreness and maximizing fat burning. It's a wonder why they are so overlooked and underutilized by the population.
For supplementation purposes there are only 2 types of fats that are needed; Omega 3's (n-3) and Omega 6's (n-6). Omega 9 is necessary, yet not essential because it can be made by the body in modest amounts. The reason why the body can't make an n-3 or n-6 fatty acid is that human metabolism can't add a double bond to a fatty acid that is more than 9 carbons away from the delta end (acid end). This is also the reason why the body can't convert an n-3 fatty acid to an n-6 fatty acid. Yeah, it sounds like science mumbo jumbo, but is important to see from a chemistry perspective why it's so hard to obtain the right EFAs from the diet.
This is where a supplement like Animal Omega comes into play. Sure, it ain't fancy. No cool bells and whistles here, just the basics. It's not going to "pack on 10 lb in a week" but long-term, it'll get ya to where ya want to be. EFAs are needed, not just any old EFAs, but the right kinds and the right amounts. That's what Animal Omega is all about. Omega is the most complete EFA product on the market. It contains the right fats that bodybuilders require. It's a full spectrum, molecularly distilled EFA supplement, each pack containing a precise and pre-dosed ratio of n-3 to n-6. It is packed with sources of Omega 3 oils extracted from various fish sources such as salmon, cod liver, herring, and plant-sourced omega 3s from flaxseed oil. Such a well-rounded mixture, ensures that you obtain all of the various n-3 extracts that are so important for general health. You get the balance of alpha linoleic acid from flax and the key fish oil extracts, EPA and DHA.
Animal Omega is then rounded out with key Omega 6 oils, including; borage, evening primrose, sesamin, and CLA. Linoleic acid is the other essential fatty acid found in nature. As said before, lack of n-6 in ones diet is hard to come by. However, there is a specific form of n-6, gamma linoneic acid or GLA, that is crucial for health. This is contained in ample doses in Omega. The body uses n-6 essential fatty acids to make various prostaglandins and leukotrienes. These substances influence inflammation and pain; some of them increase symptoms, while others decrease them.
Another n-6 found in Animal Omega is CLA. CLA, is touted for its ability to reduce body fat, being anti-catabolic, acting as an antioxidant and enhancing the immune system. Although exactly how CLA works is completely understood, it's been show by the research community that CLA positively influences the metabolism and assists with fat regulation and protein metabolism. CLA, though is not specifically an EFA, (it's a naturally occurring fatty acid found in meal and dairy) is an important addition to the Animal Omega formula as its health promoting properties were too good to pass up.
Sesamin is another hot ingredient added to the Omega formula. It's a naturally occurring lignan found in sesame oil. Research has shown sesamin can help maximize fat loss, support liver and kidney health and maintain healthy lipid profiles when combined along with other EFAs as found in Animal Omega. Sesamin is touted as a promising ingredient in the process of lean mass recomposition.
All of these potent fatty nutrients are supported by a comprehensive nutrient transport complex which allows for maximum absorption and utilization and transport of Omega's essential fatty acids. L-carnitine, lipase and lecithin make up the complex so you rest assured that the components that make up the n-3 and n-6 complexes are actually getting into your system efficiently and effectively. Another important aspect of this complex is the addition of important antioxidants, Vitamins A, D and E, which ensure EFA stability and prevents 'em from breaking down in the can. A must have for any type of EFA supplement. This translates to ultra potent softgels right from the get-go.
All in all, Animal Omega provides essential nutrition for the bodybuilder. It's loaded with all of the right fats, in a proper ratio of n-3 to n-6 to help support high quality metabolic functioning and body recomposition. It also supports cardio-vascular protection, a healthy immune system and overall health and well being. It won't change your physique overnight, but it will be an important addition to your long term physique goals. | The #1 selling training pak in the world for twenty four years straight. Since 1984, more competitive bodybuilders have cut their teeth on the Animal Pak than any other bodybuilding supplement in history. Why? Simple. Animal Pak gets the job done. It works. First time. Last time. Every time.
Nature, in all her ingenuity, has designed the human body as the ultimate performance machine. Fact is, since the dawn of mankind, our bodies have changed very little. When it comes to feeding our muscles, we still need the nutrients we get from our diets. But when it comes time to grow our muscles in a freakish way, we need the right combination and mega-doses of essential amino acids, carbs, vitamins and minerals. Only Animal Pak has what you need. You’re the kind of primal beast who trains with Animal intensity. You need plenty of the above, plus that little something extra only Animal Pak provides. That’s why we’ve also loaded the Animal Pak with performance optimizers such as lipotropics, L-arginine, Uni-Liver, eleuthero, and the like. In every pak, you’re blasted with a dizzying array of over 60 key ingredients which are delivered in the right amounts at the right time, every time.
Each of the 11 tablets included in each pak has been specifically formulated to deliver the goods. By taking the Animal Pak, you prevent the formation of nutritional gaps. Why should you care? The greater your training intensity, the faster and larger these gaps grow over time. When this happens you eventually hit a plateau. You stop growing. Maybe you’ve already hit this wall. To make matters worse, if you take other supplements, these same gaps begin to render those expensive supplements useless. Many of today’s supplements rely on enzymes and other substances in your body to “activate” them. Nutrititional gaps mean these key activators may not function at all, so you may be wasting all of your hard-earned money on supplements that won’t or can’t work.
Consider the Animal Pak as the cast iron skillet of your supplement program, your body’s first line of defense. If you train with weights, then you absolutely need to train with the Animal Pak. Remember, while most supplements have come and gone, precious few have stood the test of time. When you’re ready for the best, step up to the most trusted name in serious bodybuilding nutrition: Animal Pak. |
