1st Phorm Ignition Drink Mix 2

When it comes to quality muscle gains, post-workout nutrition can play a big role. But the truth is, protein alone after your workout is only part of what the body needs to recover properly. When you resistance train, your body's priority afterward is to replenish the energy stores it lost during the workout. Taking protein by itself means your body may convert much of it into glucose for energy replenishment. That just means less protein will be used for muscle repair and growth.

The energy stores the body is looking to replenish are called muscle glycogen stores, which are stored carbohydrates. That "flat" feeling you get about an hour after your workout? That's often from muscle glycogen depletion. Your body is programmed to address its energy needs first thing when you finish training ... That means glycogen replenishment. That's why 1st Phorm developed Ignition.

Ignition was designed to help support glycogen replenishment to create an optimal environment for protein utilization. It's a glycogen supplement sourced from pure dextrose monohydrate, one of the simplest and fastest-absorbing forms of carbohydrate available. Unlike maltodextrin, waxy maize, or highly branched cyclic dextrin (HBCD), dextrose is a monosaccharide that requires no further breakdown before entering the bloodstream. This carb can help deliver glucose to muscles rapidly to help support glycogen replenishment.
