Respect...it doesn't come easy; you have to earn it, by gritting out rep after rep in the gym in your quest for heroic biceps, bowling-ball shoulders, and an extra wide back.
Bottom line: You have to make the most of every workout. And that's where 3-XL™ from iSatori comes in....
3-XL™ is the most advanced creatine ester formula developed. Engineered to deliver more increases in muscular size and strength than anything you've ever tried before. Within one week, you could experience greater muscular fullness, crush your current training plateaus, and carry a "pump" around the gym that makes other guys seethe with envy.
3-XL™ is engineered to improve the absorption and retention of creatine, using a combination of three different creatines, including a novel form of creatine ethyl ester hydrochloride. Creatine ethyl ester, in combination with its bioactive agents, and a unique delivery method called Accelerated Plasma Shuttle Technology™, found only in 3-XL™, will dramatically improve total muscular output and increase muscle mass, strength, and hardness. For those seeking the most advanced results possible with 3-XL™, iSatori's researchers also recommend using H+Blocker™, the new beta-alanine/carnosine synthesizer, to maximize gains.
It is not unheard of for individuals to experience immediate strength gains, muscle fullness, and noticeable lean body mass gains within the first five days of using 3-XL™. More notably, though, unlike conventional creatine monohydrate alone, which has to be "loaded" and then "cycled", 3-XL™ can be used continuously, thereby allowing users to continue to experience results for as long as they use the supplement.
The combination of active compounds, found only in 3-XL™, is called the Tri-STRENGTH Creatine Complex™. This is an exclusive blend of creatine ethyl ester, creatine monohydrate, and di-creatine malate, which are the most superior forms of creatine substances available. To that, di-arginine malate was added as a natural biological precursor for nitric oxide, to aid in the delivery of creatine and improve blood flow.
3-XL™ also contains a precise blend of histidine, carbohydrates, sodium, and chloride to aid in the rapid transport of the nutrients into the muscular plasma and enhance creatine absorption and storage even higher.
With 3-XL™ containing some creatine monohydrate, di-creatine malate, and the purest esterfied form of creatine (creatine ethyl ester hydrochloride), in the Tri-Strength Creatine Complex™, 3-XL™ is engineered to improve the effects of creatine and eliminate all of the unwanted, common "side effects" of conventional creatine forms.
In other words, with 3-XL™, you can expect the creatine content to transport faster and more efficiently (up to 10 times faster), because of their lipopholic abilities, which allows them to use fat more efficiently to permeate the cell wall and exert its effects upon cellular function. This also results in virtually no water retention occuring outside of the target muscle cells, so eliminating the infamous "creatine bloat". There's no "loading" period required because more of the creatine is absorbed, so the optimal dose is taken only once daily, and typically, creatine ethyl ester works for most creatine "non-responders".
