COUNTDOWN VANILLA 28 SERVINGS

Countdown is the first post-workout product based on the 
revolutionary Nutrient Timing System. Countdown, when taken 
after your workout, can activate your body's own natural 
anabolic agents to increase muscle growth and gain greater 
muscle mass than you ever thought possible. In fact, recent 
clinical trials demonstrate Countdown™ is more effective than 
regular protein at increasing protein synthesis. 

The 
Anabolic Phase 

The Anabolic Phase is the 45 minute window 
following a workout in which your muscle machinery, in the 
presence of the right combination of nutrients, initiates the 
repair of damaged muscle protein and replenishes muscle glycogen 
stores. Immediately after exercise, muscle cells are extremely 
sensitive to the anabolic effects of the hormone insulin. This 
sensitivity, however, declines rapidly, and after several hours, 
muscle cells even become insulin resistant. Insulin resistance 
is a condition that dramatically slows muscle glycogen recovery, 
repair of existing muscle and synthesis of new muscle. 
Studies Show that the COUNTDOWN Formula: 

Increases protein 
synthesis 38% more than a protein supplement. 
Stimulates 
glycogen synthesis and replenishment almost four times more than 
a protein supplement and 128% more than a carbohydrate 
supplement. 
Reduces free radical formation, an important cause 
of muscle damage following exercise, by 69%. 
Reduces CPK 
levels, an important marker of muscle damage, by 36%. 
Maintains plasma glutamine levels following a resistance 
workout. Glutamine, the most widespread amino acid found in 
muscles, is essential for maintaining immune system function. 
Directions: Mix 2 scoops with 12 oz of cokd water. Use within 45 
minutes after a workout to take maximum advantage of the 
anabolic window.
