Designer Supplements Introduces Replenish FAQ & Write Up

A. Approximately 15.

A. Depends on how frequently you use it, or how often you train. Given that most people train three-to-four times per week, or twelve-to-sixteen times per month, you have approximately a month’s worth of your post-training nutrition covered.

A. With 12-16oz of water. Drink half immediately after training, add another 8oz water and drink the remainder over the next twenty minutes or so.

A. Because it avoids any potential bloating from drinking a lot in a short space of time. Plus, it tastes damn nice and allows you to savor the flavor.

A. Replenish™ is great for energy repletion, and stimulating protein synthesis, but it makes for a rather expensive meal replacement, so we’d recommend only using post-workout unless have you have oodles of cash to throw around. In that case, knock yourself out.

A. The pre-workout supplement of your choice. We recommend XCEED™. For those who like carbohydrates when they train, we’ll recommend Fire™ when it is released.

A. Again, that is your call. Some like to drink whey protein, others like to drink BCAA and some are happy with just water. We like a good BCAA drink, but unless you are on a strict diet, if your pre and post workout nutrition is sound, it is not critical.

A. Citrulline malate is excellent for endurance due to its buffering capabilities and we are big fans of the compound. It is in fact these properties that we have included it for! Not only does Citrulline malate help dispose of toxic ammonia build-up from exercise, it also promotes nitric oxide (NO) signalling, promotes phosphocreatine levels in muscle, and the malate is considered to be the reason that Citrulline malate promotes ATP synthesis. These factors make Citrulline malate fantastic for recovery purposes.

A. It is enough to replenish lost creatine reserves. Don’t forget also, it uses ethyl ester technology which appears to require a lesser dose than the equivalent amount of creatine monohydrate. Most people use a creatine-based formula before training anyway, so this works out very well.

A. Yes and no. We have included a blend of maltodextrin and oat fiber for their different digestion rates. While this seems contradictory, it is in fact not. This is because carbohydrates are broken down into their simplest form (typically glucose) to pass through the intestines. Once in the blood stream, they enter cells via a process called active transport. This process is rate limiting, so only a certain amount of glucose can enter the cell at any one time. Therefore it makes little sense to flood the bloodstream with glucose at once. Not only do you run the risk of the glucose being oxidised for energy, you also increase the chance of the glucose being stored as body fat. Replenish™ contains maltodextrin, a fast-acting carbohydrate, and oat fiber, a slower digesting carbohydrate, to form a sustained release of carbohydrate to the muscle.

A. Because most bodybuilders do not need to drown themselves in sugar after training. Endurance athletes will want to add more carbohydrates to Replenish™ for recovery due to them expending a lot more calories and using up a lot more glycogen reserves during training.

Going heavy on the carbohydrates post-workout is even more unnecessary for those who drink some sort of carbohydrate drink during training. A constant influx of carbohydrates and protein over the day is ideal. Sudden and sharp spikes will ultimately lead to unfavourable fat accumulation.

A. Leucine is a marvellous amino acid that is becoming more and more popular in the bodybuilding community. It is said to be the main trigger for protein synthesis and has anti-catabolic properties. In combination with the other essential amino acids and carbohydrates (and thus, insulin), it becomes quite anabolic.

A. Scientific research certainly indicates this to be a resounding yes; so does anecdotal feedback.

A. It is additional. We wouldn’t sell you guys short.

A. Hydrolysate is good stuff, but it is also pricey and we do not feel it is really worth the extra cash that it would have made Replenish™ cost. Whey protein isolate and concentrate work just fine, and when you consider the fortification of the leucine and isoleucine, it is pretty potent stuff.

A. No additional fats and no precursors, no. Nothing beats creatine replenishment better than creatine, although Citrulline may help phosphocreatine replenishment.

A. Absolutely. We recommend you do, in fact. A serving of VIGOR™ may also be of benefit if you have not taken one before training. The anti-oxidants in Glucophase XR™ and VIGOR™ help control free radicals that can put the breaks on protein synthesis and impede recovery after training.

A: We'd love for you to compare the formulas. Then compare the price. Then let us know.

A. Absolutely. Simply include it as part of your daily calorie totals.

A. Even ketogenic diets can include a certain amount of carbohydrates each day, but really it depends how sensitive you are. If you are doing a full cyclical ketogenic diet, you need to find out how many carbohydrates it takes you to be knocked out of ketosis. Replenish™ only yields 30g of carbohydrates, so you should be ok.

For those doing the targeted ketogenic diet, which carbohydrates after training, Replenish™ is perfect.

A. Absolutely. Simply include it as part of your daily calorie totals.

A. Because we spent the necessary time and money to ensure that this product tastes great. Unfortunately this does add a little more by way of price, but we feel this is absolutely worth it.

A. We have several in the pipeline, so keep an eye out!

A. Always consult your physician before using any new supplement.

Replenish looks great, but the price ($38.95 on discountanabolics.com) seems a little steep for 15 servings.  Xceed is in the same price range, but gets a little more than three times the servings. 

I'm not trying to put you guys down or anything, all of your products are great, but $2.59 per serving is IMO a little ridiculous.

With all due respect did you read the writeup and look at the comparison chart kevin put up matching replenish against other SIMILAR products?  I dont know if you think this is just another creatine product.  It certainly isnt.This is a total post workout recovery protocol  and a damn good one at that
