Key Points

Platinum Pump Pre-Workout was designed to provide the benefits of a traditional pre-workout without the inclusion of caffeine.

This premium formulation contains a combination of high-quality ingredients. Including:

L-Citrulline is an amino acid produced naturally in the body and found in high concentrations in watermelon and citrus fruits and has been found to improve performance particularly in high intensity exercise lasting less than one minute.

L-arginine, which may increase the synthesis of nitric oxide in skeletal muscle, indirectly contributing to improvements in blood flow.

Beta-alanine a non-essential amino acid that play a role in helping muscles deal with acid buildup during exercise6. By giving your muscles this extra support, beta-alanine helps delay that burning sensation you feel during intense workouts, allowing you to push yourself harder and longer.

Aquamin® Magnesium (Mg), sourced from marine algae crucial mineral that plays a vital role in numerous processes within the body, making it essential for athletes aiming for top-notch performance.

Cocomineral™, an exciting new ingredient sourced from coconut water! Packed with natural electrolytes and minerals. It stands out for its remarkable ability to replenish electrolytes lost through sweat during intense workouts.

Introduction

Are you looking for a way to boost your workouts without the caffeine hit? Our Platinum Pump caffeine-free pre-workout might be the solution for you. Traditionally, pre-workout supplements use caffeine to boost energy and enhance focus during training. However, in recent years, there has been a surge in the popularity of caffeine-free pre-workout products. Our latest addition to our Platinum range, Pump Pre-Workout, contains a range of premium ingredients that promises to give you an intense caffeine-free boost to support your training.

In this article we will examine why Platinum Pump should be part of your supplement strategy and the benefits it will bring to your training regardless of which sport your play or the type of training you do.

Benefits

Platinum Pump provides you with a solution to boost your training intensity without the caffeine hit, so you can customise your energy levels based on your personal preferences and tolerance to caffeine.

When to use

To get the maximum benefits from Platinum Pump, enjoy 30 minutes before you train. It’s the perfect choice if you train later in the afternoon or evening and try to avoid caffeine intake close to bed.

What is Platinum Pump Pre-Workout

Platinum Pump Pre-Workout was designed to provide the benefits of a traditional pre-workout without the inclusion of caffeine. Instead of relying on stimulants, this product harnesses a blend of ingredients aimed at promoting muscle pump, electrolyte balance and improving overall performance without any

caffeine-related side effects. It contains a blend of premium ingredients, such as, L-citrulline, beta-alanine and Fruitflow™ to help support intense training.

What are the Ingredients in Platinum Pump Pre-Workout?

L-arginine, L-citrulline and Fruitflow™ are known as nitric oxide precursors, vasodilators or ‘pumps’. Vasodilation occurs when the blood vessels expand allowing more oxygen and nutrients to reach the muscle via the bloodstream, which has been linked to improvements in exercise performance1. Vasodilation occurs naturally during exercise, however, certain ingredients found in food can also act as vasodilators. Vasodilators are also known as ‘pumps’ due to the feeling of the skin and muscle swelling after vigorous exercise. Let’s delve a little more into each of ?these ingredients.

L-Citrulline is an amino acid produced naturally in the body and found in high concentrations in watermelon and citrus fruits. The performance effects of L-Citrulline are associated with its conversion to arginine2. Studies have found that arginine supplementation can help nitric oxide production, which may enhance blood flow to the muscle, improving muscle function, particularly power3. However, the liver consumes a considerable portion of dietary L-arginine, hindering its ability to reach substantial levels in the bloodstream necessary for inducing a ‘pump’. An alternative and widely favoured nutritional approach is to supplement with L-citrulline, which the body converts into L-arginine. That’s why we have added a whopping 8g of L-citrulline to Platinum Pump as supplementing 6-8 g before training has been found to improve performance particularly in high intensity exercise lasting less than one minute2,3.

L-arginine is an essential amino acid found in sea food, watermelon, nuts and meat. It may increase the synthesis of nitric oxide via the enzyme nitric oxide synthase (NOS) in blood and in skeletal muscle, indirectly contributing to vasodilation4. Platinum Pump contains a high dose of 2g of L-arginine, which works with L-citrulline to support serious intensity.

Fruitflow™, an extract from tomatoes contains highly concentrated bioactives, which promote normal blood flow.

Beta-alanine is a non-essential amino acid that can be made in the body and is also found in meat, poultry, and fish. Beta-alanine is a precursor to carnosine, a molecule that steps in to help muscles deal with acid buildup during exercise6. By giving your muscles this extra support, beta-alanine helps delay that burning sensation you feel during intense workouts, allowing you to push yourself harder and longer. This means you can maintain high levels of effort for extended periods, leading to improvements like feeling less tired during intense exercise lasting 1 to 4 minutes. Plus, studies have shown that beta-alanine can also boost sprinting and power output during short bursts of activity, whether you’re on the rugby field, track, or hitting the pavement for high-intensity interval training6. With 3.2g of beta-alanine per serving, we promise this will bring your training to new heights.

Aquamin® Magnesium. Magnesium is a crucial mineral that plays a vital role in numerous processes within the body, making it essential for athletes aiming for top-notch performance. Our Platinum Pump doesn’t just include regular magnesium; it features a special form called Aquamin® Magnesium (Mg), sourced from marine algae. This form of magnesium helps to support both sports performance and overall health.

Magnesium is a powerhouse when it comes to energy metabolism. As a cofactor in over 300 enzymatic reactions, magnesium helps break down food into cellular energy^, keeping your metabolism running

smoothly. This not only contributes to normal cellular energy levels but also reduces feelings of tiredness and fatigue, keeping you going throughout your workouts.

With 500 mg of Aquamin® Magnesium per serving and alongside other electrolytes like potassium and sodium, magnesium helps regulate electrolyte balance^, nerve and muscle function^. By ensuring proper electrolyte levels, Aquamin® Magnesium keeps may help you maintain peak performance during extended periods of exercise.

Cocomineral™, an exciting new ingredient sourced from coconut water! Packed with natural electrolytes and minerals it stands out for its remarkable ability to replenish electrolytes lost through sweat during intense workouts. Essential electrolytes like potassium, sodium, and magnesium are vital for maintaining electrolyte balance, nerve function, and muscle contractions. Cocomineral™ delivers these electrolytes in a natural, easily absorbable form, supporting performance. Plus, it’s packed with antioxidants such as vitamin C and flavonoids, offering additional benefits for overall health and wellbeing.
