2:1:1 BCAA ratios are a thing of the past! – 100% more L-leucine and 50% more total BCAA’s in Body Mortar than the leading BCAA products.

Body Mortar™ – The Ultimate Muscle Potentiator – is a Mega Dose of key energy aminos consisting of the now standard 4:1:1 ratio, formulated to fuel the most competitive athlete through the most grueling activity. With the old 2:1:1 BCAA ratio a thing of the past, Body Mortar utilizes an anabolically SUPERIOR 4:1:1 ratio of BCAA’s (L-Leucine, L-Isoleucine, and L-Valine), Body Mortar™ activates key muscle growth pathways and genetic regulators, resulting in superior levels of protein synthesis and new muscle growth!

• Anabolically Superior 4:1:1 BCAA
• Growth/Endurance/Recovery Formula
• Stimulant Free
• Speeds recovery
• Supports optimal growth hormone levels
• Reduce muscle breakdown
• Promotes stamina and endurance

So why does AMS use 100% more L-leucine (Anabolically Superior 4:1:1 ratio) than most other companies who use the outdated 2:1:1 ratio?

Leucine is an essential amino acid (meaning the human body cannot synthesize it and it needs to come from dietary methods). Leucine has been growing in popularity because of its ability to initiate protein synthesis in skeletal muscle. Leucine does so by activating the anabolic pathway mTOR (mammalian target of rapamycin), which lets the body know that there is sufficient protein to begin synthesizing new skeletal muscle Protein. Protein synthesis is initiated when there is a greater concentration of leucine in the mTOR pathway. Leucine will also cause a release of insulin, which will further encourage anabolism. All these physiological actions lead to one important result – lean muscle augmentation.

Leucine is the most coveted component of the BCAA family, and the heart of our product, but we don’t want you to think that L-valine and L-isoleucine are marginal ingredients, so here are a few of their benefits:

• L-valine and L-isoleucine are used to maintain a positive nitrogen balance in the body.
• L-valine and L-isoleucine are used to repair and heal muscle tissue.
• L-valine is needed for metabolism within muscle cells.
• L-valine is found in high quantities in muscle tissues.
• L-isoleucine has the ability to increase endurance and stamina.
• L-isoleucine’s most intriguing use is its ability to maintain energy levels by regulating blood sugar levels.

In addition to Body Mortar’s “Anabolically Superior” 4:1:1 BCAA dose per serving, each scoop delivers 2.5 grams of glutamine necessary to metabolize protein and reduce catabolism:

Glutamine is in high demand throughout the body. It is used in the gut and immune system extensively to maintain optimal performance. Roughly 60% of free-form amino acids found in skeletal muscles are L-glutamine. Glutamine plays a very important role in protein metabolism and is an absolutely essential nutrient for body builders. When supplemented, it helps body builders reduce the amount of muscle deterioration that occurs because other tissues that need glutamine will not consume the glutamine stored in the muscle cells.

Research shows that after an intense training session, glutamine levels in the body are reduced by as much as 50%. Because the body relies on glutamine as cellular fuel for the immune system, glutamine supplementation can minimize the breakdown of muscle tissue and improve protein metabolism. Glutamine’s cell-expanding effects have also been supported by several studies, including one that suggests a significant increase in growth-hormone levels of weight-training adults, when as little as 2 grams of free-form L-glutamine supplement was consumed.

BODY MORTAR CONTAINS NO SLOW ACTING “RESISTANT STARCHES”

Body Mortar’s fast digesting Maltodextrin/Dextrose blended carb source is superior to “resistant starches” like Vitargo™ or Waxymaize because…

During exercise (and hopefully the grueling, intense kind), your body needs carbs that are easily digested for rapid uptake, so the simpler the better. Once you’ve exceeded your stored energy during an intensive workout, it is crucial to tap in to that “extra fuel” and push beyond the norm – hitting deep muscle fibers.

If you’re worried about what you’ve read in regards to the evils of a “Hi Glycemic Index” carb – don’t be. These studies were conducted on subjects who weren’t training – conversely, they were completely sedentary for the study. It is now considered common knowledge that during intense exercise/training, the increase in circulating GH and more importantly catecholamines (Fight or Flight mechanisms), overrides the effect of insulin. Only be concerned about high GI carbs if you’re not training (the more insulin you have in your bloodstream, the more cortisol you have. As your insulin goes up, so does your cortisol).

Everybody wants to be big and ripped, who’s ready to pay the price?

Muscle growth comes from going beyond the norm, and hitting the DEEP muscle fibers – moving serious tonnage in the gym makes you big and ripped. Other preworkout energy powders are great for guys who want to stay comfortably small…. After you crash and hit the wall – that’s when the GROWING STARTS BABY…You can say “I’m too tired” and go home, or reach for Body Mortar and go BEYOND your last workout….

Body Mortar is available in Fruit Punch and Blue Raspberry.

The Goal

Life, the world’s greatest stressor, is further aggravated by our hectic training, work and school schedules. But it’s our response to this stressor that separates successful adaptation from exhausting failure.

Sometimes we sure could use some serious help getting our physiology to produce the best response possible. This is why we supplement, right? We use protein powder to help our physiological adaptation to weight training, so why not supplement with something that will help us respond to the mental superset of life?

Lucidrol is a unique, mental-supporting formula that keeps your mind sharp and focused, especially during those times when the drudgery of certain daily events robs you of your motivation.

Lucidrol formula consists of highly-researched, neuro-supportive compounds, including Bacopa monnieri, DMAE, Phenylethylamine and Hordenine, plus it contains Rhodiola rosea and Picamilone. Let’s take a closer look.

The Guts

Traditional Ayurvedic medicine recommended Bacopa monnieri as a brain tonic and current investigations and applications for B. monnieri therapies stem from its memory-enhancing and anti-anxiety properties. In addition to its enhancing effects, B. monnieri may play a protective role in synaptic functions.

DMAE (Dimethylaminoethanol) has been used as a mood elevator for decades. After frequent use of DMAE subjects have reported more restful sleep while requiring less. Researchers have speculated that DMAE increases brain acetylcholine levels by inhibiting choline metabolism in peripheral tissues — although not directly as a choline precursor —thereby allowing free choline to accumulate and subsequently converted to acetylcholine.

Phenylethylamine (PEA) has become the new darling of stimulant and diet supplements. This endogenous neuroamine improves mood very rapidly and is being called the love chemical. Due to its neuro-modulating actions it plays a pivotal role in the feel-good feed/reward mechanisms of dietary behavior. The administration of PEA may improve mood in most individuals, especially when coupled with the MAO inhibition properties of a compound like Hordenine.

Hordenine can stimulate the release of norepinephrine (NE), the big denomination of our neuro-currency. In addition to its impact on NE — and its main duty in Lucidrol — is to prolong the effects of PEA. In this regard, Hordenine is serving as a natural inhibitor of the enzymatic reaper that picks apart and destroys simple monoamines like dopamine and phenylethylamine.

Picamilone possesses both mood-enhancing and nootropic properties by working to quell feeling of anxiety. Picamilone shows promise for improving learning performance, heightening mental acuity and increasing the brain concentrations of GABA. Originally developed by the former Soviet Union as an anti-anxiety compound, it remains the subject of research in the US, Japan and Russia.

Rhodiola rosea has been documented for its central nervous system stimulating, mood elevating and sleep improving properties. R. rosea is typically referred to as an adaptogen, a natural substance that works via adrenal glands to produce homeostatic adjustments in response to stress. Continued interest in R. rosea and its positive physiological function is constantly increasing, especially in the face of an ever-increasing supply of environmental stressors.

The Goods

Lucidrol is a unique supplement designed to increase the body’s ability to handle and adapt to stress while serving to calm and reset the mind. It can renew central nervous system function and induce a state of psychological well-being and physical anabolism. Lucidrol is constructed on the foundation of mental and mood-elevating compounds plus, with the help of unique, specific-application ingredients like Rodiola and Picamilone, disturbances in neuronal noise are quelled.

Lucidrol represents the next frontier in athletic and neural supplementation. Subscribing to a holistic approach to physiological adaptation — both physical and mental — Lucidrol is a culmination of mechanisms that finally help you forge the mind-muscle connection.

Thermogenics Redefined! with Halostachine (TM)

Remember the legendary ECA stack? If you don’t, it was probably the most effective weight loss/energy/stimulant product this industry has ever seen. Its components were – Ephedrine, Caffeine and Aspirin (and later – replaced by White Willow Bark).

Since its dubious departure – no fat burning products have been able to replicate its performance. Many have tried. Numerous stimulants have been introduced. Not until now has a company successfully produced a product capable of replicating the performance of the ECA stack.

Advanced Muscle Science has recreated the hallowed ECA stack with the only compound to approach the strength of ephedrine in stimulation and in fat burning capabilities.

This amazing compound is a NEW discovery by AMS. This innovative company has just locked down a long term licensing agreement to ensure that this key compound will be available in its strongest form.

AMS is known almost exclusively as a muscle-building component company, they knew that if they entered the world of fat burning – they needed a game changer!

So many reputable supplement companies have tried to mimic the fat burning effects of the ECA stack – only to fall short. Either they didn’t pack the energy punch of ephedrine or they couldn’t reach the fat burning effects…sadly most products failed in both categories.

It’s been a long while since a legitimately NEW stimulant has hit the market. Let’s take a look at the new compound and see what makes it so special and why it is a TRUE replacement for ephedrine. First, it was tough to find a naturally occurring alkaloid that was similar to ephedrine. Synephrine was close in structure, but failed to give the energy boost of ephedrine. Geranamine was a good try, but didn’t really provide pack the weight loss punch expected. PEA looked good on paper, but didn’t really deliver the long-term effects desired. Even though these products are decent stimulants, the world just wasn’t happy with them as TRUE ephedrine replacements. Second, the new stimulant had to hit hard like ephedrine without causing the increase in blood pressure and occasional heart- related effects. This was probably the toughest part of the challenge in finding a new stimulant that really worked like ephedrine. We needed something that was similar but didn’t cause these risky side effects.

Ladies, gentleman and stimulant junkies – AMS gives you Halostachine! This stimulant fits the bill perfectly. When you take it, you will know why we think it’s more potent than ephedrine, milligram for milligram and without the negative side effects like the massive blood pressure spikes associated with ephedrine.

Halostachine is patent pending and only available in Vapor-XT, which means you can’t get this in ANY other supplement. Halostachine works by giving your body the peak mental stimulation of ephedrine as well as Beta 3 stimulation without spiking blood pressure. This means it delivers all of the benefits of ephedrine without the negatives side effects. In studies, Halostachine is almost twice as safe as ephedrine while still showing the massive fat burning potential once coveted by ephedrine users.

Finally – we took this powerful new stimulant and mixed it with the classic CA stack (which is caffeine and “aspirin” in the form of white willow bark), giving you the new HCA stack! This stack is something available only in Vapor XT and is unlike anything since ephedrine. Ephedrine junkies will have to try it to believe it! Welcome to the NEW king of stimulants only from AMS – Thermogenics Redefined!
