Muscletech : Shatter Pumped8 Pre-Workout

Muscletech are nothing if not committed to the idea that every supplement they release has a similar name to others they sell and in Shatter Pumped8 they have released yet another preworkout using the word Shatter not to mention being confusingly similar to their existing Shatter Black Onyx Pump 8. Confused? So would we be but we are here to explain what Shatter Pumped8 is all about and how it is different to the countless other similarly named supplements made by Muscletech.

What is Shatter Pumped8 and What Does it do?

Shatter Pumped8 is a new preworkout from Muscletech focused around giving you the perfect pump and supporting improved endurance.

Don't expect us to know why it is called Shatter Pumped8, we doubt even the brand can explain the rationale of having multiple items called similar names but aside from the name, Shatter Pumped8 is an easy to understand product as its open label gives away what it is about.

What is Shatter Pumped8 good for?

Shatter Pumped8 iincludes 4g of citrulline per scoop, and the nitrate packed red spinach extract. Both citrulline and nitrates have been extensively studied by sports scientists for their ability to support improvements in endurance performance which they do via their effects on nitric oxide levels. In simple terms, the research on both show they enhance bloodflow to working muscles which means as well as the cosmetic effect of more pumped muscles, these ingredients enhance oxygenation and capillarisation which are both crucial for endurance. 

In short, Shatter Pumped8 is a supplement for those who train with higher reps or employ short rest intervals not to mention those who partake in a lot of cardio. However, if you are looking for a preworkout formulated around increasing your strength levels when you are maxing out or employing heavy weight, low rep resistance training you are not likely to get the same benefit and should look elsewhere with the most popular preworkouts typically employing a combination of strength oriented ingredients which includes stimulants that heighten CNS activation and ergogenics which work to support power output such as that old standby, creatine.
