Loads Creatine & Glycogen Into Muscles for Big Gains in Solid Mass

VOLU‑GRO™ contains 60 grams of a very unique and ultra high-molecular weight carbohydrate called Long Chain Waxy Maize Starch per serving to maximize creatine and glycogen loading. Waxy Maize Starch is equally as potent in stimulating insulin as dextrose and maltodextrin, yet unlike these two sugars, Waxy Maize Starch is completely sugar free. Waxy Maize Starch passes through the stomach faster than dextrose or maltodextrin and therefore does not cause the same discomfort. In doing so Waxy Maize Starch acts like a pump, pulling creatine and water along with it into the bloodstream. This ensures that creatine and insulin are present in the bloodstream at the same time. A much greater amount of creatine can now be transported into the muscles due to synchronized levels of creatine and insulin in the blood.

Additionally, if taken immediately after training, the Waxy Maize Starch element in VOLU‑GRO restores muscular glycogen (muscle energy) faster than dextrose or maltodextrin. This makes VOLU‑GRO the ideal post workout creatine formula. It not only helps to deliver more creatine to the muscles, but also replenishes glycogen stores much quicker causing the muscle cells to become super-hydrated while speeding up recovery more efficiently than any other glucose polymer or monomer (dextrose, maltodextrin, sucrose, fructose etc.). The overall result is a greater muscle cell volume, enhanced protein synthesis, and improved nutrient transport; all major factors contributing to more muscle growth. The fusion of creatine with long chain waxy maize starch as seen in VOLU‑GRO has set a new standard in creatine supplementation.

Detailed Facts About VOLU‑GRO

Waxy Maize Starch

Sugar-free ultra-high molecular weight waxy maize starch is a very effective compound to load glycogen and creatine into muscles. Waxy maize starch has an extremely low osmolarity rate and forms a very hypotonic solution when mixed with water. These two factors allow waxy maize starch to pass through the stomach quicker than many other carbohydrates. In doing so it acts like a pump pulling creatine and fluids along with it into the bloodstream.

Consisting of 99% amylopectin waxy maize starch causes a rapid and pronounced insulin spike allowing for glucose and creatine to be pressed into muscle cells for cell expansion and super-hydration. In other words, the loading of creatine and glycogen are maximized.

Waxy maize starch is the ideal carbohydrate source for a post-workout drink as it quickly replenishes muscular glycogen stores hence optimizing recovery.

Creatine Monohydrate

Creatine supplementation is essential to enhancing the capacity of energy production during high-intensity workouts. Creatine has proven itself, time and time again, to improve exercise performance accounting for gains in strength, power, and repetitive speed work. Long term creatine ingestion can also lead to significant gains in muscle mass accounted for higher workout intensity, more energy availability and augmentation of myosin heavy chain expression. The harder you train, with increased myogenic regulatory factors from creatine supplementation, the more apt you are to experiencing considerable hypertrophy.

Creatine monohydrate has also claimed its remarked absorption capacity (in comparison with other forms of creatine) especially when in conjunction with the ideal carbohydrate source such as ultra-high molecular weight waxy maize starch.

Magnesium

Magnesium makes a significant contribution to the glycogen loading system of VOLU‑GRO. Muscle and liver glycogen formation from blood glucose is enhanced as a result of magnesium supplementation. Magnesium also serves as an electrolyte, especially when combined with potassium.

Phosphorus

Phosphorous is an important component of adenosine triphosphate (ATP), cyclic adenosine monophosphate (AMP), and phosphocreatine. All three are essential to providing energy to the body for all biological processes, particularly enhancing energy for intense workouts.

Potassium

Potassium serves as an imperative electrolyte component for efficacious absorption of nutrients as well as clearing waste products from the body. Furthermore, potassium serves to optimize muscle action and stimulation from respective nerve impulses.

FAQS

How does VOLU-GRO work?

VOLU-GRO utilizes a high molecular weight waxy maize starch (derived from corn) carbohydrate. Designed for its ability to stimulate insulin and act as pump to pull creatine and water from the stomach and into the bloodstream, at the same time allowing creatine and insulin to peak simultaneously, unlike conventional pre-loaded creatine mixtures using dextrose. Most creatine formulas today depend on dextrose (simple sugar) to raise insulin. Scientific studies have long proven that dextrose is absorbed faster than creatine, which means that the important insulin spike comes too soon and leaves a substantial portion of creatine without a carrier, and the creatine goes to waste.

Another important feature of VOLU-GRO is its ability to load glycogen into your muscles. Glycogen enhances muscle size by increasing the muscle cell's volume. It is also critical for recovery after a workout. Waxy Maize actually has the ability to replenish the body's glycogen stores faster than maltodextrin or dextrose.

How do I take VOLU-GRO?

During the first five days (loading phase) we recommend taking two servings with one serving taken post-workout. This allows for proper saturation of creatine in the muscle cell and for extensive muscular glycogen loading. After the loading phase you would take just one serving immediately after your workout to maintain creatine levels in the muscle and quickly replenish glycogen. On non-training day you will take one serving of VOLU-GRO in the morning.

Since I take VOLU-GRO after I train, when should I take my protein shake?

We recommend taking your protein shake about 20 minutes after your serving of VOLU-GRO. Consuming protein too close to VOLU-GRO can slow the absorption of the product.

Will VOLU-GRO cause me to retain water like other creatine products?

Due to VOLU-GRO's unique formulation it allows for an increased uptake of creatine. In the past most creatine products were loaded with dextrose or maltodextrin (simple and low molecular sugars) to spike insulin and shuttle creatine into muscles. The problem here is that creatine and dextrose/maltodextrin have different absorption rates. As a result, a large percentage of creatine is left in the stomach for too long. This is where most athletes would notice bloating in the stomach, dehydration, and occasionally cramping. These unwanted effects generally do not happen with the use of VOLU-GRO.

Why do you use creatine monohydrate in VOLU-GRO?

When combined with a superior delivery system such as waxy maize, creatine monohydrate has been shown to be very effective in increasing muscle volume and strength.

How many servings are in VOLU-GRO?

A bottle of VOLU-GRO contains 20 servings.

Do I need to cycle VOLU-GRO?

VOLU-GRO can be used for extended periods of time without taking a break or cycling off.

Directions for NUTREX VOLUGRO:

Days 1-5: During this five day loading phase take two servings daily. Consume one serving in the morning immediately upon waking and one serving immediately after your workout. On non-training days take your second serving in the afternoon between meals.

Day 6 on: Only one serving per day is needed. On training days consume Volu-Gro immediately after your workout. On non-training days take Volu-Gro immediately upon waking or in the afternoon between meals.
