MegaSAUZER has been a true 'historical' protagonist of the YAMAMOTO® NUTRITION catalogue since its inception, recognised for its effectiveness as a 'pre-workout' supplement. Over time, MegaSAUZER underwent subsequent reformulation to adapt to new raw materials and to optimise its already recognised effectiveness. Today, it re-enters the market with a renewed 'third generation' formula, destined to once again confirm its established success.
"The 'soul' and enhanced mechanisms of action of this product remain the same, but particularly expanded and strengthened:
- powerful stimulation of nitric oxide for massive vasodilation in favour of committed muscles;
- energy stimulation geared towards increased resistance to physical and mental fatigue;
- emphasis on maintaining maximum focus and lucidity in training;
- anti-catabolic activity.
Those who use the new Mega SAUZER before training will feel more of a mind-muscle connection, will be able to go on for that extra set or increase their loads more easily, and will feel their muscles pumping with blood that will supply them with oxygen and the nutrients essential for their energy support and rebuilding. The different actions that characterise the new Mega SAUZER are guaranteed by a highly researched composition of raw materials of real effectiveness and certified quality.
Instant InstAA™: branched-chain amino acids on a fermented vegetable base and made "instant", characterised by excellent and rapid solubility in water, without forming residues (typical of low-quality amino acid preparations), leading to maximisation of their absorption (98+%). Branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs) consist of Leucine, Isoleucine, and Valine, 'essential' amino acids that make up 30-35% of muscle proteins, and are heavily involved in protein turnover, energy production and muscle tissue building. Secondarily, they serve as nitrogen donors for the synthesis of other important amino acids, such as glutamine and alanine. Their action, confirmed by years of research, relates in particular to strength and endurance activity, on preserving muscle tissue from catabolism induced by intense training, low-calorie diets or low-carbohydrate diets. The effects of branched-chain amino acids are not limited to muscle tissue, but are an important energy substrate for the nervous system, proving to be an effective counter to central fatigue and in maintaining a high level of alertness and focus.
L-Citrulline: a semi-essential amino acid that performs various functions in the body, as a key intermediate in the urea cycle, where superfluous amino groups are eliminated. The urea cycle is a cycle of biochemical reactions that produces urea from ammonia, a 'toxic' substance for the body, the accumulation of which hampers the formation of muscle glycogen and promotes the onset of fatigue in our muscles. The production of urea, enhanced by the introduction of Citrulline, is therefore essential for the elimination of waste substances, which can adversely affect an athlete's performance. However, Citrulline is best known for its effective stimulatory action on vasodilation, related to its conversion to L-arginine, which promotes massive production of nitric oxide (NO). NO is a potent molecule with a strong vasodilatory action, allowing muscles to receive oxygen-rich blood and nutrients, aiding both their nourishment and the removal of metabolic waste products.
Creatine: undoubtedly, one of the most widely used and studied supplements of recent years, both for its safety and for its many positive effects on athletes. Creatine is a non-protein nitrogen compound in the body, which is synthesised in the liver and pancreas from arginine, methionine and glycine. Approximately 95% of the body's creatine is stored in skeletal muscle. In smaller quantities, it is also found in the brain and testicles. About two thirds of the creatine present in skeletal muscle is stored as phosphocreatine (PCr), with the remainder stored as free creatine. The energy provided to rephosphorylate ADP and Atp during and after intense exercise depends largely on the amount of phosphocreatine (PCr) deposited in the muscle. As PCr stores are depleted during intense exercise, energy availability decreases due to the inability to resynthesise ATP in the amount required to continue high-intensity exercise. Consequently, the ability to maintain a constant effort level decreases and the availability of phosphocreatine in the muscle can significantly affect the amount of energy generated during short periods of high-intensity exercise. Supplemental creatine monohydrate supplementation (the most widely studied) has been shown to increase phosphocreatine availability, enabling rapid ATP re-synthesis during and after high-intensity exercise of short duration. This results in improved strength and power during endurance exercise, as well as promoting greater intracellular hydration. Recently, its role in the cognitive sphere has also emerged, promoting greater mental energy, focus, and improving memory, reducing mental fatigue in scenarios characterised by demanding psychophysical activity.
Tyrosine: is a semi-essential amino acid for the synthesis of important neurotransmitters such as dopamine, adrenaline, and noradrenaline, which are involved in responding and adapting to psychophysical stress, cold tolerance, and intellectual and mood functions. It is an important component in the synthesis of thyroid hormones that regulate metabolic function, including carbohydrate metabolism, thermogenesis, and are involved in cardiovascular function and appetite control.
Vinitrox™ is a complex of polyphenols extracted from grapes and apples, capable of enhancing performance due to its important effect on vasodilation, increasing activation of the eNOS system (endothelial nitric oxide synthase, +43%), nitric oxide production (+24%) and strongly increasing vasodilation in muscles (+50%) by promoting intense muscle pumping. These polyphenols synergistically combined, exert a protective action on the body against oxidative stress by significantly decreasing it (74%) along with pro-inflammatory post-workout molecules. A 'pre-workout' that improves performance (increased duration) in training but extends its functionality to the subsequent recovery phase.
Zynamite®: the star of an indisputably innovative Nektium patent extract from the Mangifera indica mango leaf, standardised in mangiferin. Zynamite® provides a real 'boost' of energy and concentration both mentally and physically, improving cerebral perfusion without the negative side effects typical of stimulants such as caffeine (anxiety, nervousness, tachycardia, blood pressure), while also providing better results. The athlete will therefore be able to perform his or her physical activity with greater mental energy, a true 'laser-focus' and a very high attention threshold, reducing reaction times and even VO2 Max. Zynamite is backed by several clinical studies and scientific awards. When caffeine is present, its synergy leads to a significant increase in stimulating effects.
Coffeine®: Caffeine is a natural substance historically appreciated and used in sports as an energy support, to increase the attention threshold, tolerate fatigue better, and raise the pain threshold in athletes undergoing intense and prolonged performance. Among its many properties, caffeine has also been shown to have a significant effect on cognitive parameters, enhancing concentration and reflex reactivity. Coffeine® is a brand of caffeine of natural origin and extracted exclusively from coffee beans.
Rodiola: is considered one of the best adaptogens on the market today. It has an adaptogenic, 'anti-stress' action, which promotes learning and memory abilities, well known from Siberian folk medicine. Its well-known properties for the body are attributable to the presence of phenylpropanoid glycosides, in particular salidroside and rosavidin, whose chemical structure is similar to that of syringin (eleutheroside B), which make it possible to counteract and respond better to phases of particular stress, counteract the feeling of physical and mental fatigue by increasing serotonin by around 30%, which not only has an anxiolytic effect, but also improves mood and is able to reduce obsessive cravings for carbohydrates and reduce nervous hunger. Rhodiola accelerates the release of fat from storage tissues (lipolysis) into brown fat, which can be easily utilised.
