Sparta Nutrition: Hydra 8

From the company that brought you Kraken: the ground-breaking Pre-Workout supplement, Sparta Nutrition have formulated a BCAA which aims to deliver not just optimal performance and recovery, but an incredible taste. Here, we present Hydra-8. 

This is a supplement which contains all the key ingredients to make sure you are on top form, both in and after your sessions. A 2:1:1 ratio illustrates how Leucine is the big priority in this supplement, and the most abundant Branch-Chain-Amino-Acid (BCAA). Leucine has been clinically shown to play a crucial role in the biosynthesis of protein - aka. the growth and maintenance quality muscle tissue. Alongside Iso-Leucine and Valine, BCAAs are a popular choice amongst athletes, due to their ability to aid muscular endurance, recovery and growth. Inclusion of L-Glutamine enhances these effects, as well as replenishing glutamine stores (these are depleted during heavy resistance training) to accelerate repair of muscle tissue, which over time enables growth to occur. As if all this wasn't enough, Hydra-8 also contains Vitamin B6, used on it's own by many for its ability to enhance metabolic processes.

To provide an intra-workout energy boost, Sparta Nutrition have taken a step further and included TeaCrine® in their formula - an ingredient renowned for it's ability to promote focus, concentration and long-lasting energy. However, it's most unique attribute is the fact it does not elevate blood pressure or heart rate, and does not cause jitters or a 'crash' often associated with stimulting ingredients. Combined with a potent dose of Caffeine , it is sure to give you an increased vigour in your session, and allow you to push harder.  

This BCAA is perfect for endurance athletes, Crossfitters and of course Bodybuilders - and comes in 4 fruity flavours: Green Apple Candy, Tropical Paradise, Watermelon and Tropical Paradise, giving you a delicious, fresh taste without the sugar of a standard squash/fruit drink.
