pHAlo pH Performance Plus - Pre Workout Endurance with Post Workout Recovery, Decrease Muscle Fatigue and Caffeine Free

Works fantastic

So this seems worth a try to aid in muscle performance & recovery. As others here have stated, one of the main ingredients is simply good ole' Baking Soda (Sodium Bicarbonate). This has in fact been known to have real recovery & performance benefits for athletes & fitness folks. There is also some Vitamin C, Calcium, Magnesium & a healthy dose of Potassium in this. I would be cautious if you are on a low potassium diet for something. Otherwise it doesn't appear to me there's anything in this that could hurt a person. In fact it may really help you in many ways. I think it's worth the try. It is a little pricey currently, but if it helps you in the ways you're looking for, well it will probably be worth it. Seems like a solid well made supplement though.

This product has genuinely surprised me. It’s been a week since I last went to the gym and usually that would leave my muscles sore the next day, but after I took this, there was absolutely no soreness. I will definitely be buying more and recommending this to my friends and family.

I have been taking this pH Performance Plus supplement as directed, but unfortunately, I haven't noticed any difference in my workouts or my recovery time yet. It might work better for others, but it didn't do much for me. I did not notice the main ingredient was sodium bicarbonate which is the ingredient in baking soda..so the product is basically baking soda. I do not recomended for the amount it would take to get this as you can use standard kitchen baking soda x5 instead of this expensive endurance supplement. A standard grocery store box contains pure sodium bicarbonate, which is the exact same chemical active ingredient. AGAIN Sodium bicarbonate is the exact scientific name for everyday kitchen baking soda. Surprisingly, it is one of the most thoroughly researched and scientifically proven exercise supplements in sports science. The International Olympic Committee even recognizes it as a top-tier aid. THE C word SOCIETY WILL NOT APPROVE THIS FOR AID IN C TREATMENT THO. It allegedly helps cancer too due to cancer altering our bodys ph to survive baking soda counters the PH and makes cancer NOT survive. Wish they would test this and prove it next. *There is 2 reasons WHY this isnt working for me: [ ] The Wrong Type of Workout: Baking soda only helps with high-intensity, anaerobic bursts that create a heavy muscle burn basically CARDIO. It provides virtually no benefit for normal strength lifting or slow, steady cardio, I have just weigh trained this past week and a half. [ ] Under-Dosing: Where I am no stranger to the supplement, I might havw a tolerance and need more. To actually change mine and your blood's pH levels, science shows you need a relatively large dose—typically around 0.2 to 0.3 grams per kilogram of body weight. Standard capsules usually contain a very small amount, which is often not enough to trigger a noticeable performance boost. *However since I am NO stranger to taking this, but making my own and Ill save you some money. [ ] The Performance Dose: According to the last time I checked ssports science guidelines (which is who I follow, from the International Society of Sports Nutrition), the effective dose is 0.2 to 0.3 grams per kilogram of body weight. For a person weighing 150 lbs (approx. 68 kg), that equals roughly 14 to 20 grams of baking soda, which is about 2.5 to 3.5 level teaspoons. I will not list my dose here, but keep in mind it is also known to help combat and prevent c word at near the same dose. So you have to be careful [ ] The Timing: You must completely dissolve the powder into a large volume of water (at least 16 to 20 ounces) and drink it slowly 60 to 180 minutes before your workout. Its bitter and salty. If you drink pedalyte, add it in there or add some into your oats then water then shake. WARNING THO IF YOU CONSUME TOO MUCH : Taking a full performance dose of raw baking soda/sodium bicarbonate powder frequently results in: -Severe stomach bloating and intense abdominal cramping.+ but also helps this <stated on baking soda box> -Sudden, severe nausea or vomiting. -"Explosive" diarrhea shortly before or during your workout as your body tries to balance the sudden rush of salt in your digestive tract. (Also happens from pre workout as some contains sodium bicarb as filler) Just have to know the big fancy names they use for household items.. if ya dont know then im here to help haha. Unfortunately since the medical word is involved I do have to add a disclosure: Disclaimer: This information is for general educational and sports performance context only and does not constitute medical advice. High doses of sodium bicarbonate carry severe risk of gastrointestinal distress and electrolyte imbalance. Consult a healthcare professional before altering your supplement regimen, especially if you have underlying cardiovascular or renal conditions.

It’s hard to get through a week at the gym without this stuff!! Your body feels more recovered after taking this, which gives you that extra push to do a full workout even on early mornings after a long work week. Two before and two after a workout, I feel much less sore and am not miserable returning to the gym the next day. Definitely a must have!
