One of the reasons I love working out is I love getting stronger. When I can see progress in physique or strength it fires me up and keeps me coming back to the gym.   I recently read something that made me ask the question, why do we have strength?  In the gospel of Matthew chapter 20 verses 25-28 Jesus says this,   “You know that the rulers in this world lord it over their people, and the officials flaunt their authority over those under them. But among you it will be different. Whoever wants to be a leader among you must be your servant, and whoever wants to be first among you must become your slave. For even the Son...

With many years of collecting data, we too believe that L-Citrulline Malate is the ergogenic powerhouse in our pre-workout.

Over the years, there has been an influx of NO products using Arginine as the primary ingredient. While Arginine has been shown to spike plasma levels of arginine, L-Citrulline Malate has actually shown to be more effective at raising plasma levels of Arginine even more than Arginine itself, and for longer periods of time! L-Citrulline Malate does...

September 11, 2001 We all remember where we were when we first heard the news. At the tender age of 12, I was in my 8th grade home room when a friend told me about the first plane. I remember thinking it was some sort of freak accident, until we heard about the second plane. I knew it was a horrible act, but I think I was too young to fully understand just how horrible. I knew people had died, and for no reason, and I knew we would go to war, inevitably killing more. I wondered if we would still be at war by the time I graduated in 2006, and whether I would have to go. September 11,...
