Basic. To some this means simple, trivial and common... Nothing to get excited about. To others, the basics are absolutely vital. They are essential and critical. You simply can't live without them. In the inner circle of the world's most dedicated weightlifters and bodybuilders, protein is one such necessary basic. It is the primary fuel for new muscle growth. And as such, it is placed at a premium.

Chicken, steak, tuna and eggs. Meals featuring these popular whole food protein sources are consumed, quite literally around the clock, by serious trainers, each striving to hit a daily quota in protein grams that they've deemed necessary to reach their muscle-building goals. It takes pre-planning and hours of food prep. And that can also mean a lot of chewing. It seemed there had to be a reasonable means of helping to simplify that process, ensuring diehard trainers could hit their protein number every day.

The rise and emergence of the supplement industry brought supplemental protein powder into the mainstream, turning average protein supps from chalky cans of undrinkable sludge into delicious fitness smoothies. Shaker cups were everywhere. Protein powder was in seemingly every household. But as the category exploded, quality diminished in the pursuit of better taste and wider margins.

As a result, Animalone of the most respected brands in the trenches of the iron sports, never truly entered the protein game in earnest. If it couldn't be done right, we wouldn't do it at all. Three proven decades in the gym bags of the hardest lifters on the planet, and no protein power. Until now.

The most serious brand in bodybuilding delivers a product its consumers have been demanding for years. Animal WHEY. A protein blend heavy in cross flow micro-filtered whey protein isolate, complemented by ultra-filtrated whey protein concentrate and fortified with the proven and highly-touted digestive enzymes papain and bromelain, Animal WHEY lives to the lofty standard strived for and set by Animal, making it worthy to bear the unmistakable Iconic imagery on its front label.

More than just a pre-workout, Primal Preworkout improves energy, focus, pump, and endurance during training, no matter how intense, while promoting muscle hydration, heart health, and workout recovery. Primal Preworkout powers workout performance and supports exercise recovery without the jitters, post-workout crashes, or bad taste in your mouth from chalky powder.

Serious trainers take a beating in the gym. This iron sport is grueling, arduous and repetitive. There’s no way around that reality. You will be sore, you will get hurt, you will feel pain regularly. How you recover, how you respond how you remedy and deal with that pain will ultimately determine how strong you are on the platform or high you ascend on the competitive bodybuilding stage.

To reach the lofty goals you set for yourself, think marathon and not sprint. You have to approach training like it’s your job. If you’re out sick, you’re not moving forward. The same applies in the gym. If you’re injured, you can’t train. And if you can’t train, you won’t grow. Nagging injuries and joint issues will most certainly hinder a lifter’s progress. Dealing with injuries is all part of the game, and some are simply beyond your control. But there are measures you can take to fortify your weak links and minimize the nicks and dings that come with the territory when training on a high level. One such preventative step is joint support nutrition.

No other joint supplement designed for serious lifters has won more awards and accolades than Animal Flex. Why? Because Animal Flex flat out works. Animal Flex has won the prestigious 'Joint Supplement of the Year' award eight years in a row. But more importantly, Animal Flex has changed the lives of lifters around the world and has helped keep them in the gym, day in and day out.

When you’re building a house, you need to make sure that its foundation is rock solid, because that massive structure puts tremendous pressure on the underlying base. As an athlete, you should focus as much attention on the foundation as on the structure that sits atop it. Your body’s foundation is your joints, ligaments, tendons, and all the connective tissue the framework that supports your growing muscle. The harder you train, the more stress you put on your structure. Each workout not only taxes muscle but sinew and can, over time, weaken this vital connective tissue. Remember, when a foundation crumbles, the house is quick to follow and the bigger the house, the bigger that potential.

Animal Flex works by helping to strengthen joints and ligaments, shielding them from the daily wear and tear brought about rigorous training. The ingredients in Animal Flex can help maintain healthy joint function, elasticity, and flexibility. Many of Animal Flex’s active ingredients provide the basic building blocks that are required to maintain human structural integrity.

Animal Flex, like other Animal supplements, is complete and comprehensive. Each pack of Animal Flex consists of several key protective complexes: (1) a potent joint construction complex to help repair connective tissue; (2) a lubrication compound to help cushion the joints from lifting; (3) a support complex to help promote rehabilitation and reduce soreness; and (4) an essential vitamin/mineral blend to underscore optimal joint health.

As a joint 'constructor', Animal Flex is powered by proven reconstruction nutrients. Animal Flex provides the joints with the essential raw materials such as glucosamine (two forms), MSM, and chondroitin… Ingredients designed to naturally protect and restore joint health while strengthening the underlying cartilage and connective tissue. These nutrients, once absorbed, can work quickly and efficiently to aid in the rebuilding of cartilage.

From a joint lubrication point of view, hyaluronic acid (HA), patented cetyl myristoleate (CMO), and flax seed oil provide the “lubricant” needed to coat your joints and protect them from the constant grind of training excess and resulting stiffness. These potent joint lubricators naturally restore the oils present in the synovial fluid to make joints work smoothly and painlessly. When it comes to joint support, Animal Flex utilizes potent natural herbal extracts to help address the free radical load--a consequence of inflammation of the joints. Herbs and extracts like turmeric, boswellia and ginger root have been shown to help inhibit pro-inflammatory metabolites, which leads to a strong and prolonged anti-inflammatory effect. A reduction in inflammation is critical for maintaining pain free joints and for protection against degenerative joint issues often related to years of heavy lifting.

Unlike pain relievers that only mask the symptoms, the compounds in Animal Flex offer real support and promotes long term joint health. Animal Flex also incorporates a specialized vitamin and mineral blend. This blend is added to provide maximum nutritional support. This key vitamin mix provides you with the basic essential micro-nutrients needed for joint health. Nutrients such as Vitamins C, E, zinc, selenium and manganese are needed for to support healthy joints. These nutrients provide the backbone for proper joint health.

Here’s the kicker. Unlike other joint formulas, you won't need to take Animal Flex three times a day. Despite its potency and comprehensive nature, you just take a single dose (or packet) of Animal Flex daily. That’s it. How easy is that? Best of all, like all Animal products (including Animal Pak, Animal Cuts, Animal Test and the like), Animal Flex comes with an “ironclad” product guarantee. So there really is no reason not to give Animal Flex a try.

Dedicated lifters ourselves, we formulated Animal Flex to address the sorts of inevitable joint wear and tear issues we faced daily. Progress is always our purpose. And that progress is predicated on consistent daily effort in the gym. For those who understand this commitment to the iron, and who can’t afford to be sidelined by joint issues, we created Animal Flex.

Aminos are the basic building blocks of muscle. Aminos can also trigger anabolism, the cornerstone of muscle growth. As a lifter, you need them, especially the right ones. While there are nearly two dozen different amino acids, only a select few are absolutely essential for igniting the anabolic drive, as new research has shown. Not surprisingly, these required aminos are the same ones found in human muscle protein. 

Animal Nitro is the first and only supplement that contains the correct ratios of those aminos based on human muscle protein itself. 

This complex of aminos is appropriately called Human Muscle Protein Complex (HMPC) and they're only in Animal Nitro. HMPC consists of special "uncoupled" aminos exclusively -- those that are free of the chemical bonds that can limit maximum utilization. 

By using only 100% uncoupled aminos in HMPC, Animal Nitro delivers a precisely controlled dose of aminos that are "targeted" to efficiently enter systemic circulation through a novel amino transport system. 

Here's how it works. Each pack consists of a measured 6,000mg dose of uncoupled aminos (HMPC). Once ingested, they form a special bolus (a protective "mass") that allows them to efficiently bypass the liver. Now this is vital as the liver captures and catabolizes regular amino acids (like those found in protein powders such as whey and more conventional amino supplements) to urea, a waste product. 

Once safely past the liver, this bolus of uncoupled aminos enters systemic circulation, where they can exert their powerful pharmacological actions-vasodilatation and anabolism. When combined with resistance training, Animal Nitro can actually help your body deliver more nutrients to your working muscles, recover more quickly, and build new muscle mass by enhancing protein synthesis, improving net muscle protein balance, and preventing muscle breakdown. 

Gram for gram, nothing is as pure, as efficient, as potent, and as effective as Animal Nitro. It's the gold standard among amino. 
 

Animal Pump is complete and comprehensive - you get everything you need, precisely dosed in a single convenient "pack".
There's no feeling like it anywhere... The "pump". It's the sensation that has the dedicated among us coming back to the gym day after day, year after year. It's an addiction! But the pump is much more than a feeling, a fleeting rush... The pump is essential in our sport, for it signals the start of new muscle growth. With each pump-inducing rep, nutrient-rich blood floods the working muscle cells, engorging them. This process of "cell volumization" kick starts the anabolic process. Enter Animal Pump.
Built on the proven foundation of creatine, Animal Pump is no passing fancy. It's a no bull, high octane performance supplement designed to help you blast through plateaus and preconceived limitations. Utilizing a unique, advanced matrix of the most cutting-edge forms of creatine, we created Animal Pump for the serious lifter--for traditional creatine non-responders and for those who hate the dreaded creatine "bloat".
Gone are the days of taking 3 or 4 different products together. You don't have to figure out what to mix with what, or spend an arm and a leg on buying several supplements. Just a pack of Animal Pump a day and you're good to go.

Glutamine is one of the most adaptable of all amino acids, and among the top aminos used by elite athletes. Among its many responsibilities, glutamine detoxifies ammonia, regulates protein synthesis and protein degradation, acts as a nitrogen precursor and transfer, promotes cellular hydration, stimulates growth hormone production, maintains acid balance, boosts the immune system, is an energy precursor and increases glycogen production in the liver.

Basically, glutamine is both anabolic and anti-catabolic. Glutamine makes up about 60% of the body's total intramuscular free amino-acid pool and 20% of the total circulating amino acids. Unlike almost all other aminos, glutamine has two nitrogen atoms. Because of this extra nitrogen atom, glutamine is called a nitrogen "shuttle." Glutamine transfers nitrogen where the body needs it most.
