HIGH-OCTANE PR FUEL A potent additive that primes body and mind for demanding workouts and races. Lower perceived effort, optimized energy use, sharper focus – PreRace catalyzes more days without limits. KEY BENEFITS - Increases energy & time to exhaustion - Supercharges circulation & oxygen delivery - Enhances focus & motivation PREPRACE CLINICAL STUDY ON A 40K TIME TRIAL South Dakota State University conducted an independent study on the original PreRace formula to determine its effectiveness on cycling endurance. The double-blind placebo-controlled study used seven trained cyclists in a 40K time trial. Each cyclist performed two 40K time trials. On the first TT, the cyclist consumed either a placebo or PreRace mixed with one serving of EFS 30 minutes before doing a 40K TT. One week later each cyclist would switch the protocol and receive the opposite of what he/she received the previous week. HERE'S YOUR SECRET WEAPON With the ideal balance of caffeine and taurine, PreRace 2.0 lets you stay in the red longer and with less perceived effort. The new formula also enhances ATP production and mobilizes fat for additional energy, conserving glycogen so you still have fuel in the tank when everyone else is empty. KEEP YOUR HEAD IN THE GAME All the sacrifice and hard training you do means nothing if your focus and motivation slip at the wrong time. The completely redesigned PreRace formula improves alertness, increases motivation, and sharpens mental acuity. Don’t just react; take control. BUILT FOR SPEED The theory behind PreRace is simple: combine a suite of active ingredients that, separately, improve physical and mental performance. We combined the stimulating, motivating cognitive effects of nootropics like taurine, caffeine, and theobromine with Nitrosigine®, a patented vasodilator that boosts nitric oxide (NO) levels for increased blood flow, focus, and energy to create a synergistic formula unlike anything else available. NEXT-LEVEL POWER AND EFFICIENCY Stimulating the Nitric Oxide (NO) system is clinically shown to increase blood flow, clear lactate, and deliver more oxygen and nutrient-rich blood to working muscles. With Nitrosigine®, a non-nitrate vasodilator, PreRace fires the afterburners without blowing up your heart rate, keeping your engine running hotter, and longer, with less recovery time between demanding efforts NEVER STOP IMPROVING PreRace 2.0 delivers one more new active: VitaCherry® Sport anthocyanins, a tart cherry extract that further increases pace relative to perceived exertion while shortening recovery time to maintain a higher level across multi-day events or peak training periods. Did the original PreRace work? Yes. Did we need to improve it? No. Did that stop us? Absolutely not. There’s still nothing else like PreRace on the market, we just saw an opportunity to make it even better.

The combination of fast and medium-burning carbohydrates in Clif’s Energy Gels provides you with a steady stream of usable fuel during workouts and races. Electrolytes help balance your fluid levels, while a heavy dose of caffeine gives a boost to your central nervous system and releases free fatty acids into your bloodstream, which can help spare your body’s limited glycogen stores. Clif uses 85% organic ingredients and a thin consistency that goes down easy in both hot and cold weather. Even the packaging has a special touch—the opening is narrow and has a litter-resistant leash, the corners are rounded for jersey pocket comfort, and each packet has a reduced carbon footprint.

GOODBYE ACHY JOINTS & MUSCLES HALO accelerates joint recovery, reduces exercise-induced inflammation, and reduces downtime following overuse injuries. HALO provides comfort to muscles and joints that are sore and aching so you can train harder and recover faster. - Increases joint health & comfort* - Reduces inflammation & soreness* - Accelerates joint & muscle repair* *exercise-induced or following-exercise US PROVISIONAL PATENT #63229703 SO EFFECTIVE WE PATENTED IT Most everyone has heard of the benefits of curcumin, and plenty of athletes have tried it with little or no success. The main reason is because curcumin is very unstable. It spontaneously breaks down in the body before it gets where it needs to be to work. The technology that makes HALO special wasn’t available so we developed it. The key to realizing the benefits of curcumin is our proprietary Superba2® phospholipid delivery system that protects the curcumin from your body’s natural tendency to deactivate it, and allows it to be delivered and absorbed effectively. THE CUMULATION OF 18 YEARS OF RESEARCH WE CRACKED THE CODE Our proprietary delivery system not only protects the curcumin by keeping it stable in the body, it also allows it to be absorbed and delivered to where it works - inside cell membranes. The key to making curcumin effective is Superba2®, a special krill oil that protects curcumin from your body's natural tendency to deactivate it, and delivers both the curcumin and omega-3 phospholipids to cell membranes much more efficiently than fish/algal oils of any strength. Superba2® is uniquely compatible with cell membranes, so - even compared to other phospholipids - it reduces the process for membrane uptake from around 20 steps to 3-4 steps, getting curcumin and omega-3s where they need to be more efficiently, get fully absorbed, and produce anti-inflammatory effects. IMPROVES JOINT MOBILITY AND COMFORT REINFORCE THE WEAKEST LINK Joints and muscles bear the brunt of endurance training abuse. HALO’s Curcuminoids and Omega-3 phospholipids reduce late-onset soreness, exercise-induced inflammation, downtime following falls, and the impact of lingering minor injuries by signaling the musculoskeletal system to kickstart repair and adaptation processes, providing comfort to muscles and joints that are sore and aching from training or overuse. THE 95% PENALTY 95% of the population is deficient in omega-3s. That’s compounded by endurance exercise, impacting performance, mental processes, and recovery. Cardiovascular, cognitive, musculoskeletal—virtually no major body system is unaffected. Superba2™ omega-3 phospholipids are bioidentical to your cell membranes, so they don’t require additional processing steps for uptake. By improving membrane function, HALO supercharges endurance exercise capacity and energy production. DON’T LET ANYTHING SLOW YOU DOWN Almost every athlete has had training derailed by a nagging minor injury. That’s why we developed HALO, a proprietary combination of Curcuminoids, Astaxanthin, and Omega-3s that contributes to a full-body training foundation. More intense training, more effective recovery. FULL SYSTEM PROTECTION Omega-3s and curcuminoids efficiently populate cell membranes, where they are precursors and enhancers for signaling molecules that help maintain normal, healthy musculoskeletal tissue integrity and cardiovascular, cognitive, and immune functions. By managing inflammation-triggering enzymes and supporting cell membrane function throughout the body, HALO helps keep critical systems at peak efficiency to respond to your body’s need to perform. SOURCED FOR EFFICACY, PACKAGED FOR PROTECTION From the Superba2™ krill oil to the 95% pure curcuminoids from turmeric rhizomes, HALO’s effectiveness is rooted in its premium formula. Every component is sourced to maximize uptake and effectiveness, and the active ingredients are packaged in an amber glass bottle, which stabilizes and preserves notoriously vulnerable ingredients. A COMPREHENSIVE PERFORMANCE SYSTEM The overlapping, system-wide nature of HALO’s performance benefits aligns with First Endurance’s comprehensive approach to endurance athletics. Our line of supplements supports every aspect of endurance training rather than just supplying sugar and salt during exercise and protein during recovery. HALO, MultiV, and Optygen are the equivalent of building a base of fitness, ensuring your body’s infrastructure is equal to the exertions and stress of dedicated endurance training.

This rapid assimilation ensures immediate effectiveness and spares you the typical 5-10 minute wait for it to take effect. ADDITION BY OMISSION In addition to omitting thickening agents, Liquid Shot also avoids common ingredients like fructose and vitamin C, which reduce efficient energy production (fructose) and have demonstrated a negative performance impact when consumed during endurance training and racing (vitamin C). TECH YOU CAN TASTE The latest research and technology give Liquid Shot a light, neutral flavor that’s easy to consume hour after hour, even when you're at your limit. PREVENTS CRAMPING & DEHYDRATION The revolutionary formula delivers all five electrolytes (instead of just one or two) for more effective uptake and cramp prevention. During extreme heat and intense efforts, Liquid Shot’s complete electrolyte profile can be the difference between peak performance and collapsing with cramps as the winning gap opens in front of you. THE BITTERSWEET TRUTH ABOUT FRUCTOSE Liquid Shot delivers a blend of high-efficiency carbohydrates without fructose. This combination effectively negates fructose’s ATP tax, boosting overall energy production without the problems of pure fructose. The biochemistry behind this is much more complicated, of course, and you can read more about how maltodextrin – and several other carbs – help Liquid Shot maximize fast energy.
