Citrulline Malate: The Powerhouse Supplement
And also, Vegan friendly! Citrulline Malate the well known compound for boosting performance in the gym and increasing nitric oxide production to produce the all important PUMP!
Citrulline, in the same way as L-Arginine, increase nitric oxide in the body. Nitric oxide relaxes the blood vessels allowing for better blood flow and circulation. Both supplements are used in the same way however Citrulline has been proven to have unique benefits as well as being more efficient since the liver does not break it down as quickly. After taking L-Citrulline, you should notice that you feel full and are more vascular with each workout, which can also prompt enhanced muscle growth as the working muscle receives more nutrients. Throw in the visual you’ll experience and knowing that your hard work is paying off, and you’ve got a solid reason to add this supplement to your plan.
Each dose of ENFLATE provides 4 grams of citrulline malate at a 2:1 ratio of citrulline to malate. This ratio is superior to most that use the lesser 1:1 ratio of citrulline to malate. At 1:1 that means you are getting less of the critical amino acid citrulline than you realize.
Citrulline also has the ability to promote exercise endurance and blunt fatigue through its ability to enhance the removal of ammonia and lactic acid from the blood. High ammonia levels build up during intense exercise, due to the metabolism of the BCAAs by the muscle for fuel. The high ammonia level limits the ability of the muscles to contract with full force and impairs muscle endurance. Lactic acid dissociates into hydrogen ions and these also impair muscle contraction. By enhancing the clearance of ammonia and lactate, citrulline allows for faster recovery between sets and can allow for greater muscle endurance.
Taking citrulline in the form of citrulline malate also provides the additional benefit of malate. Research has shown that Citrulline Malate significantly improves the amount of ATP that the muscles are able to regenerate and enhances the rate that phosphocreatine (PCr) is regenerated.
Research published in the Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research noted that subjects who supplemented with Citrulline Malate prior to their workout session not only showed a significant increase in the total number of reps performed until fatigue set in, but also experienced a 40% decrease in muscle soreness at both 24 hours as well as 48 hours post workout.
(Pérez-Guisado, J. and Jakeman, P. M. Citrulline malate enhances athletic anaerobic performance and relieves muscle soreness.)
Since delayed onset muscle soreness can appear up to 48 hours after a training session, it can be assumed that supplementing with L-Citrulline Malate may help you feel better post-session. This may be partly due to the increased flow of blood and nutrients to the muscle tissues, providing them the fuel they need to recover.
As you can see, there is much to gain from adding L-Citrulline to your supplement stack!
MORE ABOUT ENFLATE:
And not only does ENFLATE include the powerhouse compound Citrulline Malate, but also numerous other potent nitric oxide releasing ingredients such as Agmatine Sulfate and HydroMax! By working through different pathways these compounds combined create a synergistic effect, resulting in that skin bursting PUMP.
Not to forget the FOCUS effects found in ENFLATE, which only enhance the performance that much more; Alpha GPC, VitaCholine, Huperzine A. Improving mood, concentration, and cognitive function. We have found these Nootropics stack very well with the pump compounds, making ENFLATE an ideal supplement that can be taken as a stand alone or combined with one of our stimulant based preworkouts for even more synergistic effects.
