INGREDIENT BREAKDOWN

L-Citrulline is one of the most effective pump boosters on the market - no wonder we doubled the dose! Our new 5150 Gladiator Edition is giving you a huge 8,000 mg for massive pumps! So how does citrulline work? Once in the body, citrulline converts into arginine, which promotes production of nitric oxide. The most obvious question is, why not just take arginine instead? That's a simple one. Arginine does not absorb as well. On the other hand, citrulline bypasses digestion and goes right to the bloodstream. This means that citrulline does a much better job of increasing arginine levels in the blood than arginine itself.(1,2)
We know 5%ers stay on top of new ingredients, and HydroPrime glycerol is one of the most impressive ingredients to hit the market. So what does it do? It hyper-hydrates your muscles which leads to massive water-based pumps. It also promotes extended endurance. The other thing it does is avoid the clumping problems associated with lesser forms of glycerol. Leave it to 5% Nutrition to use the superior version of this outstanding compound! Combine that with the nitric oxide-boosting pump power of l-citrulline, and your pumps will be mind-melting!(3)
We upped this just a bit to the full clinical dose! This ingredient indirectly buffers acid and inhibits fatigue. It works by increasing levels of carnosine in your muscles. Carnosine consists of the amino acids alanine and histidine. It occurs naturally in the body, and is one of the main compounds that buffers acid in working muscles. That means you can push out more reps and sets than you thought possible.(5)
You will find taurine in most pre-workouts and energy drinks. It's an amino sulfonic acid occurring naturally in your heart, brain, and skeletal muscles. Taurine has several benefits. One benefit is that it lowers nerve impulses in the brain that increase blood pressure. This decreases resistance to blood flow. That means better pumps and nutrient delivery. Also, taurine is an osmolyte that increases muscle cell volume by helping to pull water into the muscles. Finally, taurine improves cognitive function for improved workouts.(6)
This form of Tyrosine is the most bioavailable form available. That means it gets the job done better than any other version. Tyrosine works by increasing levels of the neurotransmitters noradrenaline and dopamine, which improves focus and mood. It also helps you get through stressful situations.(7)
Agmatine sulfate is created in the body from the amino acid arginine. It’s synthesized in the brain and has cognitive benefits even though it’s mainly known as a potent pump booster. Agmatine’s primary function is to influence the production of nitric oxide synthase, a group of three enzymes that produce nitric oxide.(4)
Not to be outdone, we upped this one to 1,000 mg. Choline promotes focus and improves mental function, including the all-important mind-muscle connection. This is one of the most crucial keys to your workout success. No doubt, the mental connection to your working muscles is the difference between a so-so workout and a great one.
Alpha-GPC is a potent cognitive enhancer, so we decided to triple the dose! Also, it increases the release of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine, which enhances learning and memory. Plus, it prevents exercise-induced reductions in choline levels and increases endurance. Finally, it’s thought that alpha gpc may improve recovery.(8,9)
This is an innovative patented electrolyte blend designed to optimize hydration levels and replenish essential minerals lost through sweat while you’re working out, ensuring peak performance.
Toothed Clubmoss (Huperzia serrata) improves focus and indirectly increases levels of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine. It does this by blocking an enzyme called acetylcholinesterase. This enzyme controls the breakdown of acetylcholine. By inhibiting this enzyme, more acetylcholine becomes available to help enhance focus.(10)
Originally introduced to replace ephedra, this 10% Synephrine is a naturally occurring alkaloid compound that’s also known as “bitter orange” because it’s derived from the rind of oranges. Research suggests that synephrine hcl binds to β3-adrenergic receptors. This increases the body’s ability to break down fat. Synephrine hcl also acts as a mild stimulant that works well with our Stim-Crazy Caffeine Complex.(11)
This exciting supplement activates thermogenesis to help burn fat, increase energy, and improve mood. Cocoa alkaloid extract does not have the edginess of caffeine, yet it smooths out caffeine’s effects and lasts longer. That means there’s less of a chance of the jitters and shakes usually associated with extreme caffeine consumption.(12)
Caffeine Anhydrous, Dicaffeine Malate (Infinergy™), Theobromine, Caffeine (from Green Tea leaf), Guarana Seed Extract, Rauvolfia Canesens (Alpha-Yohimbine), Green Coffee Bean Extract, Gotu Kola Extract This legendary complex features both fast-acting and slow-acting forms of caffeine. That means no jitters and longer-lasting energy. Plus, theobromine eases the harshness of caffeine. 5% Nutrition’s Stim-Crazy Caffeine Complex is the way caffeine is supposed to be done. This limited edition series has an all-new flavor lineup, featuring a refreshing Peach Mango – affectionately known as flavor, it tastes delicious! It couldn’t be more clear - 5% Nutrition 5150 Gladiator Edition sets the bar way above any other pre-workout - and now is the time to get yours!
