Blonyx Endurance Bundle

Beta‐hydroxy beta‐methylbutyrate (HMB) is a well-studied compound that protects against muscle damage from training and reduces soreness. It’s derived from leucine, one of the three essential branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs). BCAAs are vital for protein synthesis, muscle growth and muscle repair.

Supplementing with 3g of HMB daily slows muscle protein breakdown and increases new protein production, which shortens your recovery time and helps you increase the intensity and frequency of your training.

Calcium HMB (the kind used in HMB+ Creatine and HMB Sport) is also shown to be the most effective form of HMB since your body absorbs it more quickly and uses it more efficiently than other forms of the compound.

Beta-alanine is a non-essential amino acid, meaning it’s naturally produced by our bodies and is found in foods like meat, fish and dairy.

Unlike most amino acids that are primarily used to make proteins, beta-alanine plays an important role in the production of carnosine, which buffers lactic acid buildup in your muscles. Lactic acid is what causes the burning sensation you feel after intense exercise.

Supplementing with 6g of beta-alanine daily slows the buildup of lactic acid, which improves your endurance and delays the onset of muscle fatigue, allowing you to maintain high-intensity performance for longer.

Yes! Most sports drink brands would have you believe you need to avoid dehydration at all costs and replace the salt lost in your sweat to perform your best, but research shows this isn’t the case. Studies show that the body is very capable of handling mild dehydration and that the loss of water weight can improve your performance. The process of deliberately keeping yourself 0–2% dehydrated to achieve this benefit is called tactical dehydration.

When you take Hydra+, you’re supporting your body in performing its best by providing a balance of electrolytes and carbohydrates that mimics the body’s natural hydration state, making it easier to maintain your performance over longer periods.

This balance of electrolytes and carbohydrates also helps your body start the recovery process after an intense training session.

For comprehensive performance support, use Hydra+ alongside our other support products like Egg White Protein Isolate and Multivit+.

HMB has been shown to improve endurance performance by reducing muscle damage during prolonged or intense exercise like running or cycling where the muscles undergo stress. HMB works by supporting the muscle's ability to recover from this stress more efficiently, thus maintaining muscle function and delaying the onset of fatigue. This process allows athletes to sustain higher levels of activity for longer periods, enhancing overall endurance performance.

HMB helps reduce recovery times by protecting against exercise-induced muscle damage (EIMD). By decreasing markers of muscle damage such as creatine kinase and lactate dehydrogenase, HMB minimizes inflammation and oxidative stress in the muscles. This protection allows for faster recovery and less soreness after training, making it easier for athletes to maintain their training schedule without extended downtime.

Supplementing with beta-alanine can enhance exercise performance by boosting the body's buffering capacity. In a study testing co-supplementation of beta-alanine alongside sodium bicarbonate, beta-alanine increased muscle carnosine levels while sodium bicarbonate elevated blood bicarbonate levels. These changes help counteract acidosis during high-intensity exercise. Participants who took beta-alanine showed improved performance and increased time to exhaustion during intense cycling tests. However, adding sodium bicarbonate did not provide additional performance benefits beyond those seen with beta-alanine alone, suggesting beta-alanine alone is effective for enhancing performance during high-intensity exercise.

A carbohydrate-electrolyte drink is better at treating exercise-induced dehydration than water alone and is an effective alternative when real food isn't available. Drinking carbohydrate-electrolyte solutions with 4-9% carbohydrate content are ideal for rehydration after exercise-induced dehydration.

The process of deliberately keeping yourself 0–2% dehydrated to achieve this benefit is called tactical dehydration. Studies show that the body is very capable of handling mild dehydration and that the loss of water weight can improve your performance.
