Our research findings

Performance & Fatigue Resistance

Formulated with clinically studied ingredients to support strength under fatigue and reduce performance decline.

Why It’s Important

Supports the ability to train longer before fatigue-related strength decline occurs.

Fatigue Perception & Workout Effort

Clinically studied Ashwagandha supports reduced perceived effort and improved endurance performance.

Why It’s Important

Workouts often feel harder before the body actually reaches its limit. Higher perceived effort leads to early fatigue and reduced training output. This can limit endurance and consistency over time. Managing perceived exertion helps sustain longer, more effective workouts.

Recovery & Stress Response

Clinically studied Ashwagandha supports improved recovery and reduced stress response after physical exertion.

Why It’s Important

Intense training increases stress hormones like cortisol. Elevated cortisol can slow recovery and impact performance. Poor recovery reduces readiness for the next workout. Managing stress response is key to consistent performance.

Designed for
Consistency

Formulated to support consistent performance by addressing fatigue, perceived effort, and recovery together.

Why It’s Important

Most workout drop-offs are not due to lack of motivation. They are driven by fatigue, high perceived effort, and poor recovery. These factors reduce training frequency and performance over time. Addressing all three is key to maintaining consistency.

What Powers Our Research

Our formulations are built using evidence from published clinical studies on individual ingredients.

We analyze randomized, placebo-controlled trials to understand validated physiological outcomes. Key focus areas include fatigue resistance, perceived exertion, and recovery markers.

All claims are derived from peer-reviewed research, not proprietary or in-house studies.

The Research Framework Behind Our Formulation

Our formulation is built by analyzing rigorously conducted clinical trials on individual ingredients.

These include randomized, placebo-controlled human studies evaluating performance, fatigue, and recovery outcomes. Instead of conducting proprietary trials, we focus on identifying ingredients with consistent, validated results across studies.

This ensures every inclusion in the formulation is backed by measurable physiological impact.

How the Trials Were Conducted
  • Randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled human clinical trials were used across studies.
  • Participants were assigned to either active ingredient or placebo groups to measure true effects.
  • Key outcomes included strength under fatigue, perceived exertion (RPE), and cortisol levels.
  • Statistical significance (p < 0.05) was used to validate results beyond chance.
  • Strength decline under fatigue and muscle damage markers
  • Rating of Perceived Exertion (RPE scale) and endurance performance
  • Cortisol levels and recovery indicators
  • Exercise capacity and performance consistency markers
  • Shilajit selected for fatigue resistance and reduced muscle damage (~29%)
  • Ashwagandha selected for reduced perceived exertion and cortisol (~27–30%)
  • Piperine included to support nutrient absorption
  • Combined to address fatigue, effort, and recovery together for consistency

FAQs

The formulation was built by reviewing published human clinical studies on the individual ingredients rather than relying on proprietary or in-house trials.

Our focus was identifying ingredients that demonstrated measurable effects on fatigue, recovery, performance, and vitality across multiple studies.

The research includes randomized, placebo-controlled human clinical trials, which are widely considered among the strongest forms of nutritional research.

These studies compare active ingredients against placebo groups to determine whether observed effects are likely due to the ingredient itself.

The studies evaluated outcomes including:

• Strength and endurance
• Fatigue resistance
• Recovery markers
• Testosterone-related markers
• Cortisol and stress response
• VO2 Max and exercise performance
• Perceived exertion during training

Each ingredient was selected because published research demonstrated potential benefits related to consistency, recovery, physical performance, fatigue management, or vitality.

The goal was not to include the most ingredients, but to include ingredients with meaningful human research behind them.

Yes.

Several studies examined fatigue-related outcomes, perceived exertion, recovery markers, and physical performance under demanding conditions.

These findings helped shape the recovery-focused aspect of the system.

Human studies included in our research review reported improvements in strength output, endurance-related outcomes, and exercise performance markers.

Results varied depending on the ingredient, population, and study design.

The system was not formulated solely as a testosterone product.

Some ingredients have been studied for testosterone-related markers, but the primary goal of the system is supporting energy, recovery, performance, and training consistency.

Clinical research is most commonly conducted on individual ingredients.

By evaluating each ingredient separately, researchers can better understand its specific physiological effects and contribution to the overall formulation strategy.

No.

Clinical studies identify average outcomes within study populations.

Individual results may vary depending on age, training status, nutrition, sleep, stress levels, and consistency of use.

The formulation was designed by identifying ingredients with complementary evidence across areas such as energy, recovery, fatigue management, physical performance, and vitality.

The goal was to create a system that supports the factors most commonly associated with long-term training consistency.

Additional Info

Performance & Fatigue Resistance

Performance reflects sustained strength during activity, while fatigue resistance is the ability to delay strength decline. It determines how long you can maintain output before fatigue impacts performance.

A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial in 63 active men over 8 weeks evaluated ~500 mg/day Shilajit. Strength under fatigue and muscle damage markers were measured.

Significant reduction in strength loss under fatigue was observed (p < 0.05). Muscle damage markers reduced by ~29%.

Additional Info

Fatigue Perception & Workout Effort

Fatigue perception is how hard a workout feels, while workout effort reflects the intensity your body experiences.

It influences how quickly you feel exhausted during exercise. Randomized controlled trials evaluated Ashwagandha extract on endurance and perceived exertion in healthy adults.

Measures included Rating of Perceived Exertion (RPE), endurance performance, and exercise capacity.

Significant reduction in perceived exertion was observed (p < 0.05). Endurance performance and exercise capacity improved.

Additional Info

Recovery & Stress Response

Recovery refers to how quickly the body returns to baseline after exertion, while stress response reflects how the body manages physical stress.

It impacts readiness for the next workout and overall performance consistency. Randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trials evaluated Ashwagandha on stress and recovery markers.

Measures included cortisol levels, recovery indicators, and physical performance.

Cortisol levels were reduced by ~27–30% vs placebo. Significant improvement in stress response was observed (p < 0.05).

Additional Info
