Explosive Lean Muscle Growth with Research-Proven Science! If you want to speed up lean muscle growth, get this one fact straight: Insulin is the most Anabolic (muscle building) of all hormones. In fact, insulin triggers more lean muscle growth than Anabolic Steroids or Growth Hormone! Consequently, the goal of sugar-free N.O. Shotgun is to promote massive increases in insulin without the use of high glycemic index carbohydrates and this, prevent insulin resistance. Therefore, the N.O. Shotgun matrix provides a carbohydrate free approach utilizing research-proven compounds to boost insulin that have no adverse effect on blood sugar. This method keeps the body highly sensitive and responsive to insulin resulting in greater lean muscle growth and destruction of fat tissues. Efficient insulin metabolism also allows you to continually access stored body fat to use as energy. The end result of this "Zero Impact Diet Strategy" is a ripped and muscular physique! Making Carbohydrates Obsolete. In assembling the pieces of the scientific puzzle, N.O. Shotgun was formulated to mimic the insulin response generated by high glycemic (high Gl) carbs (i.e. sugar) to activate beta-cells and stimulate whole body creatine retention! One of the solutions was to use bis-Picolinato Oxo-Vanadium (BPOV) which is a potent form of chemically altered Vanadium that makes beta-cells super responsive to insulin. Additionally, Beta-Alanine was employed to stimulate research-proven whole-body creatine retention. In fact, these two compounds are far more effective than sugar-laden "N.O." supplements without the unwanted carb-induced side effects -- water retention, bloating, and an increase in body fat. You train intensely to get lean, hard, and pumped with crisp, water-free muscle seperation, and this is where sugar-free N.O. Shotgun out-performs the competition! Research has proven that the cutting-edge compounds contained in the N.O. Shotgun matrix work synergistically to effectively stimulate insulin secretion. VPX scientists used a carb-free approach to achieve greater receptiveness of the beta-cells by taking advantage of the efficient insulin spiking abilities of protein hydrolysates and the potent anabolic amino acid, L-Leucine. When post-exercise insulin is increased in the presence of protein hydrosylates and leucine, massive amounts of muscle building amino acids flood the blood resulting in significant net protein being deposited into muscle. Finally, the ingestion of creatine in conjunction with proteins and high-Gl carbs is no longer required to stimulate whole-body creatine retention! N.O. Shotgun re-wrote cutting edge carb-free muscle science. Owoc's Research-Proven 7-Compound-Protocol to Ignite Synthesis of Lean Muscle.       1) Redline's Unparalleled Energy Technology contained only in N.O. Shotgun is the driving force behind the intensity you need to trigger muscle growth. I'll get real with you; without insanely attacking the weights, new muscle growth just isn't going to occur. Redline is the neuro-energetic catalyst that fuels episodes of psychotic physical and mental intensity necessary to stimulate formation of new muscle tissue! SyntheSize is very similar to N.O. Shotgun but does NOT contain Redline's unparalleled energy technology because it is a post workout matrix that can also be used in the evening when stimulants are undesirable. SyntheSize is also ideal for individuals wanting to eliminate stimulants from their diet. Further, the Redline compounds contained in N.O. Shotgun were also designed to burn fat at an unprecedented rate. Fat loss records of a 127 and 190 pounds have been set using Redline! See RedlineRush.com and zidiet.com for amazing transformations and details.       2) Whey and Casein Protein Hydrolysates: these extraordinary proteins increase insulin production by 110% greater than carbs alone and increase glycogen synthesis by 35%. Whey and Casein Protein Hydrolysates are far superior to intact proteins such as whey, casein and egg for promoting nitrogen utilization and muscle growth. The powerful lean muscle building effect occurs after consuming Protein Hydrolysates prior to, during and after training. These specialized peptides dump ino the blood rapidly causing super high blood levels of amino acids and increased production of the poweful anabolic hormone, insulin. These teo physiological events result in a potent anabolic (muscle building) response in the body. Shotgun and SyntheSize both contain copious amounts of Whey and Casein Protein Hydrolysates. These potent protein fractions are comprised of 22% Glutamine Peptide, 41% total peptide bonded Essential Amino Acids (EAA's) and 21% peptide bonded BCAA's (Branched Chain Amino Acids)! This is important because muscle consists of 78% glutamine while BCAA's and EAA's are the most potent research-proven muscle building amino acids.       3) L-Leucine intermixed with Protein Hydrolysates has an even greater effect on insulin production and muscle growth than Protein Hydrolysates alone. Shotgun is rich in added free form L-Leucine and Leucine Peptides.       4) Cutting Edge High Tech Creatines: It is well documented in research that insulin transports Creatine into muscle tissue. Further, Creatine combined with protein increases creatine retention within the muscle cell and results in increased lean muscle mass. More insulin means more creatine = greater muscle mass, quicker recovery and increased strength! Shotgun and SyntheSize contain the most anabolic proteins known to man and several cutting edge high tech Creatines such as, Creatinol-0-Phosphate & Di-Na Creatine Phosphate Tetrahydrate that all exert specialized effects in promoting lean muscle growth, strength and ATP Resynthesis!       5) Beta-Alanine radically improves whole body Creatine retention and muscle Carnosine, consequently, vastly improving strength, repetition capability, endurance and lean muscle growth! Beta-Alanine is so powerful you can actually feel it working within seconds because of the unique parasalsys action of the muscles and skin.       6) BPOV (bis-Picolinato Oxo-Vanadium) increases the beta cell's sensitivity and responsiveness to insulin. This is hugely important because the kinetics and dynamics of insulin dictate that it is not how much you produce, but more importantly, how "insulin responsive" or efficient your body utilizes insulin to shuttle Creatine, Beta-alanine, Leucine and other muscle energetic compounds into the muscle cell to manufacture more lean muscle. Sixty-seven percent (67%) of Americans are insulin resistant to some degree. If you have any degree of insulin resistance, your ability to use insulin is compromised. Therefore, it doesn't really matter how much insulin your body releases because you are "resistant" to insulin's ability to build muscle (anabolism). Less overall carbohydrate consumption (glycemic load) and elimination of high glycemic index dietary carbs along with higher protein intake, BPOV supplementation and increasing muscle mass via resitance training are all factors that increase insulin sensitivity and utilazation.       7) N.O. + Pumping Agents: Finally, we added some radical new compounds to induce a serious Nitric Oxide Pump. The Nitric Oxide Releasing Factor, GBBEE (Gamma-Butyrobetaine Ethyl Ester) was combined along with the most powerful NO-inducing

Best Pre Workout supplement, August 12, 2009
By Koopa from Florida

"I have tried N.O. xplode and Jack3d before using NO Shotgun. I can honestly say that I won't be using any other Pre workout formula other than NO Shotgun. Not only is there quality ingredients but it tastes great and it seems to work a lot better than the other two. I stack this with Dark Matter and have seen great results."

Best Pre Work out on the MArket, May 28, 2009
By VitaRaider from Minneapolis, MN

"I have tried almost every pre work out formula availiable. This one is stil the Best hands down. Another nice thing is that it has protein in it which you need before a hard work out most others don't. I also like how it individually lists the ingrediants. Most other formulas just have a blend so you don't know the exact amounts of the ingrediants your taking."
