In addition to the collectible visual appeal, the formula is technically solid and accessible: it combines \u003cstrong\u003e6 active ingredients\u003c\/strong\u003e in the essential categories of a good pre-workout (citrulline malate for pump, beta-alanine for endurance, taurine and caffeine for focus and energy, electrolytes for hydration, and BioPerine® for increased absorption), with a cleaner and more direct formula than New Venom Full Strength (which has 14 ingredients). Contains 200 mg of caffeine per 20g dose. Vegan. 400g per package (~20 doses). Flavors: Tropical Punch, Purple Fruits, Fresh Lime, and Bubble Gum. Also available in a caffeine-free version.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"text-text-100 mt-3 -mb-1 text-[1.125rem] font-bold\"\u003eBenefits\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCitrulline Malate 2:1 (majority per dose): the formula's engine for vasodilation and muscle pump:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eCitrulline-DL-Malate (2:1) is the main ingredient in this formula, with the largest proportion in the ingredient list. The Malate form (malic acid salt with L-Citrulline in a 2 parts citrulline to 1 part malate ratio) has two components of action. L-Citrulline is converted to L-Arginine in the kidneys and made available for nitric oxide (NO) synthesis by endothelial eNOS, resulting in vasodilation, increased muscle blood flow, improved muscle oxygenation, and the \"pump\" phenomenon (muscle engorgement with blood during strength training). DL-Malate is an organic acid intermediate of the Krebs cycle that facilitates mitochondrial ATP resynthesis and can increase tolerance to muscular fatigue through the same mechanism. Citrulline malate is the second ingredient in the formula by quantity (after maltodextrin, which serves as an excipient), confirming that it is present in a relevant functional dose. The study by Pérez-Guisado \u0026amp; Jakeman (2010) in the Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research documented that 8g of citrulline malate reduced muscle fatigue by 40% and increased the number of repetitions to failure in strength exercise.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBeta-alanine: supports muscular endurance and acts as a metabolic anti-fatigue agent:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eBeta-alanine is the third ingredient by declared quantity, confirming a functional dose present in the formula. As detailed in the descriptions of Beta Alanine 1000 and New Venom Full Strength products, beta-alanine progressively increases muscle carnosine stores with regular use (2 to 12 weeks), improving intracellular pH buffering capacity during high-intensity efforts of 1 to 4 minutes and reducing metabolic muscle fatigue.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTaurine: mental focus, cellular hydration, and muscular antioxidant protection:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eL-Taurine is an aminosulfonate (not an amino acid in the strict sense, as it is not incorporated into proteins) with multiple relevant physiological functions in the pre-workout context. It plays an osmoregulatory role in muscle cells (maintaining cell volume and intracellular hydration, contributing to pump and contractile function), direct antioxidant activity (with a chemical structure that allows it to chelate iron and copper ions that catalyze lipid peroxidation), modulatory effects on GABAergic transmission (central nervous system relaxation that counteracts excessive anxiety some users experience with higher doses of caffeine), and modest ergogenic effects documented in aerobic performance and repeated sprint capacity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAnhydrous caffeine 200 mg: central energy and focus:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eThe 200 mg of anhydrous caffeine per 20g serving covers the standard ergogenic dose (3 to 6 mg\/kg body weight), identical to New Venom Full Strength but with a simpler formula surrounding the caffeine. Anhydrous caffeine (dehydrated form, without crystallization water) has rapid dissolution and onset of action within 15 to 30 minutes after ingestion, with peak plasma levels at 45 to 60 minutes, justifying the instruction to take it 20 to 30 minutes before training.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMint extract 40% menthol: the sensory differentiator that reduces perceived exertion:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eThe dry extract of Mentha x piperita standardized to 40% menthol is an unusual ingredient in pre-workouts and one of the characteristics that distinguishes Elektro Ki from conventional pre-workouts. Menthol (the component responsible for mint's flavor and refreshing sensation) has documented physiological effects: it activates TRPM8 receptors (cold and menthol receptors) in cutaneous thermoreceptors and respiratory pathways, creating a sensation of coolness that can reduce the perception of heat during exercise and improve perceived comfort; and preliminary studies suggest that inhaling mint aroma during exercise can reduce perceived exertion (RPE) via stimulation of sympathetic nerve fibers that modulate fatigue perception in the central nervous system. In the context of Elektro Ki, menthol contributes both to the refreshing flavor profile of the four options and to a sensory effect during ingestion that can make each dose psychologically more energizing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eElectrolytes (potassium citrate + sodium chloride): pre-workout replenishment for optimized muscle contraction:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eThe inclusion of potassium citrate (potassium) and sodium chloride (sodium) in the formula ensures that the user starts training with major electrolytes replenished, especially important for those who train early in the morning on an empty stomach or after a long period without food. Potassium and sodium are essential for the electrochemical gradient of muscle membranes, which allows for nerve impulse transmission and muscle contraction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBioPerine® (Piper nigrum extract, 95% piperine): maximized absorption of all ingredients:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eBioPerine® (Sabinsa Corporation) inhibits intestinal and hepatic phase II metabolism enzymes and P-glycoprotein, increasing the bioavailability of multiple nutrients and bioactive compounds. In the context of Elektro Ki, it enhances the absorption and bioavailability of all active ingredients, especially citrulline (which has limiting intestinal and hepatic metabolism) and compounds from mint extract.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVegan: the formula without animal-derived ingredients:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eElektro Ki is confirmed as vegan by Life Pro (all ingredients are of plant or synthetic origin, without gelatin, without animal-derived taurine, without dairy).

Shake well. Consume 20 to 30 minutes before training for optimal absorption of active ingredients. To assess tolerance to caffeine and beta-alanine (which causes transient and benign paresthesia\/tingling), start with half a dose (10g) for the first few sessions. Do not consume close to bedtime. Do not exceed the daily dose of 20g.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Life Pro","offers":[{"title":"Normal \/ Tropical","offer_id":52840076509531,"sku":null,"price":31.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"Normal \/ Purple fruits","offer_id":52840076542299,"sku":null,"price":31.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"Normal \/ Lima","offer_id":52840076575067,"sku":null,"price":31.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Normal \/ Gum","offer_id":52840076607835,"sku":null,"price":31.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"Sem café \/ Tropical","offer_id":52840077721947,"sku":null,"price":31.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"Sem café \/ Purple fruits","offer_id":52840077754715,"sku":null,"price":31.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Sem café \/ Lima","offer_id":52840077787483,"sku":null,"price":31.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"Sem café \/ Gum","offer_id":52840077820251,"sku":null,"price":31.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1005\/0250\/3771\/files\/LifePro-ElektroKiDragonBallZLimitedEdition400g_Tropical.png?v=1776632369","url":"https:\/\/brothers-club.com\/en\/products\/life-pro-elektro-ki-dragon-ball-z-limited-edition-400g","provider":"Brother's Club","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
