Shattered Plateau Buster:Supplement Overview

You can train without supplements, but why would you when they only support your gains and set you up for success? Here are the Kaged® supplements I recommend that you take to support growth and recovery while you’re following Shattered! That’s essential for improving your weakest body part.

PRE-KAGED®

I like to take this pre-workout product about 30 minutes before each weight-training workout. PRE-KAGED® supports heightened mental focus and provides your body with ingredients that help stimulate better performance. You’ll feel laser-focused, with more energy and intensity to perform your very best workouts.. The product contains caffeine from PurCaf® Organic Caffeine, fermented BCAAs, pure L-Citrulline, CarnoSyn® beta-alanine and many others that help drive focus, energy, and strength for far better workouts. Add 1 scoop of Creatine HCl and 2 scoops of Citrulline for better results.

IN-KAGED®

This product is designed to be taken during your workouts. It helps prolong your energy through to the very last rep. It does so with the quality ingredients it contains, including fermented BCAAs (leucine, isoleucine, valine), pure L-Citrulline, CarnoSyn® beta-alanine and coconut water among others. Add 2 scoops of Citrulline for enhanced nitric oxide production.

RE-KAGED®

Immediately after each workout you’ll take RE-KAGED® to get fast-digesting protein into your system to help kickstart the recovery process to rebuild muscle. RE-KAGED contains ProHydrolase, a digestive enzyme matrix that rapidly breaks down the whey protein isolate into highly bioavailable micro fractions, allowing your body more easily absorb the protein and take full advantage of the available essential amino acids.. I like to add another scoop of Creatine HCl to my RE-KAGED.

MICROPURE® WHEY PROTEIN ISOLATE

Whey is fast-digesting form of milk protein, and it’s one of the best ways to help protect against muscle-breakdown (catabolism). You can get in this product at any time of day when you need more protein, including upon rising, or before or after workouts. It’s great to boost consumption of fast-digesting protein.

KASEIN®

On my program, you’ll also take a serving of Kasein® each night before bed to feed your muscles with a steady stream of amino acids while you sleep. Casein is a slow-digesting form of protein that helps prevent muscle breakdown (catabolism) while you sleep and are not consuming protein.

FERMENTED BCAAs

Branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs) include leucine, isoleucine and valine. This group of amino acids is unique in its ability to support muscle building while reducing catabolism (muscle-breakdown) from intense training. Because your body cannot make BCAAs, you need to get them from your food and supplements, and you have a much greater demand for them when you’re training with intensity. Kaged Fermented BCAAs deliver a scientifically designed 2:1:1 ratio.

FERMENTED GLUTAMINE

Glutamine is the most abundant amino acid in the human body, and it can be synthesized from other amino acids. When your body has a greater need for glutamine, such as when you’re on an intense training program, it may break down muscle tissue for this purpose. Supplementing fermented Glutamine helps reduce muscle breakdown and encourages protein synthesis.

HYDRA-CHARGE®

This product helps support hydration. Adding Hydra-Charge® to your water every day adds flavor, encouraging you to drink more fluid while providing essential electrolytes and a unique blend of fruit, vegetable and herbal extracts for antioxidant support.

CREATINE HCl

Creatine is an amino acid compound that provides multiple training advantages. Primarily, it helps your body generate adenosine triphosphate (ATP) for better workouts. It also helps draw water into muscle cells for enhanced cellular volume. I add a dose of Creatine HCl before and after workouts. This Kaged product is more soluble you’re your run-of-the-mill creatine monohydrate, and it helps re-load your muscles for better workouts in the coming days.

PURE CITRULLINE

This product contains pure citrulline, an amino acid that helps your body increase production of arginine (another amino acid) that ultimately increases nitric oxide (NO) production. The last is a gas molecule that promotes vasodilation (expanse of your veins), promoting normal delivery of blood, oxygen and nutrients to the muscles you’re training. I take Pure Citrulline before and during workouts.

WATER

While it should go without saying, water is also crucial to a sound training, nutrition and supplement program. But it is an essential nutrient we tend to forget. Keeping your body hydrated is absolutely crucial to building muscle, recovery and guaranteeing optimized performance in every workout. You should target getting in about 1 gallon of water per day, which also includes the water you add to the Kaged products mentioned above.

WEIGHT-TRAINING DAY SUPPLEMENT SUGGESTIONS:

Here are my recommendations for what you can take on each of your weight-training days:

QUALITY SUPPS LEAD TO QUALITY GROWTH

Taking quality supplements is a must if you’re trying to maximize any successful training program. Unfortunately, the supplement industry has its fair share of bad actors, so things such as underdosed ingredients, spiked formulas, and banned substances find their way into some supplements today. That’s why we started Kaged Supplements. If you want the highest quality supplements without compromise, Kaged is the best choice. Here are some reasons why we are an industry leader:

* We use patented ingredients so you can be sure the ingredients you’re getting in your supplement stack are backed by real science.

* Our supplements carry the Micropure guarantee, which means every product is third-party tested for purity and potency.

* Kaged uses natural colors and flavors.

* Kaged products are third party certified free from banned substances.

* Our amino acids such as BCAAs, Citrulline and Glutamine are naturally fermented from vegetable sources and not human hair or animal by-products such as duck feathers, used by many other supplement manufacturers.

* Our products also contain the optimal amount of ingredients, unlike other supplement companies which often underdose their formulas.
