granite® vaso blast advanced 'stim-free' pre-workout (cherry lime) | supports vasodialation, no conversion, & ace inhibition for max pump with grapeseed extract, arginine nitrite, & vasodrive-ap® granite supplements the science behind a vasoblast non-stim pre focuses on the vascular system instead of the central nervous system. in other words, we focus on maximizing blood flow to deliver oxygen and nutrients to your muscles. we looked closely at the physiology including all the processes that take place to achieve maximum blood flow, and we designed a product to powerfully execute them. the three key processes are: dilate the blood vessels, maximize the nitric oxide conversion, and hold off vasoconstriction. our 3-prong approach tackles these processes head-on. the result is a product that is a game-changer. <br><br> step 1 – open the pipes: grapeseed extract – relaxes blood vessels which leads to increased diameter or width of the vessels, which mean more blood flow. gse has also been shown to help “protect” the no and the enos enzyme from shutting down due to oxidative stress metabolites that can accumulate.<br> step 2 – pump up the nitric oxide: arginine nitrate solves that problem by also providing a vehicle to deliver nitrate, which itself is enzymatically reduced or converted to nitrite and then finally to actual no! we deliver arginine in a way such that it is converted to nitric oxide with two distinct precursors, and not degraded before it does its job. we add time-tested citrulline to compliment the arginine nitrate to leave no doubt that the “pump is primed” and process of vasodilation is maxed out!<br> step 3 – keep the pipes open: vasodrive-ap- granite supplements was first to bring this novel ingredient to the industry years ago. your body produces a chemical (angiotensin ii) that will cause vasoconstriction as a means to get everything back to “normal”. vasodrive-ap acts as an ace inhibitor which prevents that angiotensin ii chemical from building up and “closing the pipes“. vasodrive-ap has side-benefits for augmenting insulin sensitivity and muscle recovery from training stressors. the result is longer lasting and more sustained pump!
