Ingredient Focus: Doubling Down on CarnoSyn® Beta-Alanine

Evertrain PRE and POST both utilize one of the leading ingredients in sports nutrition formulations  – CarnoSyn® beta-alanine. Read more to learn about how this incredible ingredient can help you build more muscle, faster. 

More muscle? Yep! PRE and POST can help to increase the working capacity of muscles – helping you build more muscle, faster.

A Brief Intro:

Both PRE and POST are stacked with CarnoSyn® beta-alanine, one of the leading ingredients in sports nutrition formulations. CarnoSyn® is one of the many high-quality trademarked ingredients you’ll find within each individual serving of Evertrain PRE and POST.

CarnoSyn® is the highest-quality version of the amino acid ingredient beta-alanine. In fact, CarnoSyn® was recently acknowledged by the FDA as a New Dietary Ingredient and is the is the only beta-alanine on the market that has successfully obtained this status.

How It Works:

Historically, beta-alanine was once only found only within pre-workout product formulas in a moderate dosage of roughly 1.6-3.2g per serving. Today, we now know that MORE beta-alanine is what brings forth better training results.

Recent scientific studies have proven the beta-alanine dosage of 6.4g/day is the exact amount shown to significantly amplify your muscle performance over just a 28 day period of consumption.

To further support this claim, the International Olympic Committee recently listed beta-alanine as one of the supplements that improve sports performance.*1

With endless research and worldwide recognition – we’ve intentionally equipped both Evertrain PRE and POST each with 3.2g of beta-alanine, totaling 6.4g per day.

What Does Beta-Alanine Do:

Beta-alanine supports the synthesis of muscle carnosine – which acts as a buffer against lactic acid, delaying the onset of muscle fatigue and failure.

Increased acidity levels are a major contributor to muscle fatigue. So, when beta-alanine increases the buffering capacity of the muscle – you can inherently workout at a higher level for longer due to decreased lactic acid build-up.

This 6.4g/day found within PRE and POST will provide you with the best training results and the following scientifically backed benefits:

1. Increased muscle strength.*2
2. Delayed fatigue during workouts.*3
3. Increased working capacity of muscle by 16%.*4
4. Enhanced buffering capacity of muscles.*5
5. Elevated muscle carnosine levels by 80% after 10 weeks.*6

Newcomers to beta-alanine may experience a tingling sensation in the lips, ears, face, and or/extremities. This tingling sensation is called Paresthesia and is completely normal. With consistent consumption of beta-alanine, this tingling sensation will diminish over time.

Recommended Dosage:

Training Days: 

Evertrain PRE – 1 Full Serving (3.2g of beta-alanine)

Evertrain POST – 2 Full Servings (1.6 of beta-alanine per serving. 3.2g in total)

Rest Days:

Evertrain PRE – 1/2 Serving (1.6g of beta-alanine)

Evertrain POST – 1-2 Full Servings (1.6g – 3.2g of beta-alanine)

Additional Notes and References:

• Muscle carnosine tends to be lower in females.
• Muscle carnosine also tends to be lower in those who don’t consume animal protein in their diet.
