Aug 30, 23 | News | 0 Comments
Gaining strength and building muscle isn’t just about hitting the gym hard and making sure you’re progressively overloading your muscles each session. Training in the gym is important, but in order to see results, you also need to provide your body with essential nutrients and the fuel it needs to repair and grow. By fuelling your body correctly, next session you can come back stronger than before.
Planning your lean mass growth and strength adaptations requires smart training principles and quality supplementation. We understand that navigating the world of supplements can be overwhelming, which is why we’re here to help. Let us remove the guesswork with our scientifically formulated range of performance nutrition, covering pre-workouts, intra-workout, protein, mass gainers and on-the-go solutions needed to adequately fuel your fitness journey. This article will detail 10 of our best products which will enable you to grow muscle mass and reach your fitness goals.
1. Critical Mass
Critical Mass has been designed for people who find it hard to gain body mass, a hard gainer. Critical Mass provides a calorie dense formula comprising high levels of protein and carbohydrate in every serving. This is to ensure that your growing muscles get all of the vital nutrients they need to develop and recover.
2. Creatine Monohydrate
Creatine Monohydrate is suitable for anyone partaking in prolonged or high-intensity exercise, looking to improve physical performance. Applied Nutrition’s Creatine provides the purest, most readily absorbed Creatine Monohydrate formula available.
Studies report that the increase of Creatine levels will help delay the onset of fatigue, increase energy metabolism in the muscle cells and enhance the body's overall training capability.
3. BCAA Amino Hydrate
BCAA Amino-Hydrate is an intra-workout & recovery drink-mix that all athletes, bodybuilders, powerlifters, boxers and general keep fitters should be consuming during every workout.
BCAA Amino-Hydrate was formulated to deliver maximum amounts of highly tested Branch Chain Amino Acids that will maximise your training intensity and longevity while flooding your body with a blend of re-hydrating electrolytes and salts with added citrulline for intra-workout pump.
Fuelling your body's engine during your workout is the key to progress.
4. ISO-XP Protein
ISO-XP is a high protein supplement with sweetener using the cleanest and highest quality Whey Protein Isolate available today, with low fat, carbohydrate and sugar content, whilst delivering high levels of protein per 25g serving. ISO-XP has no added soy and instead uses sunflower lecithin as the emulsifier.
ISO-XP is ideal for anyone looking to increase their daily intake of protein while keeping their intake of carbohydrates, sugars and fats to a minimum. ISO-XP should be mixed with water or milk for easy mixing and a great taste!
5. ABE PUMP Stim-Free Pre-Workout

Designed to change the way you perform through enhanced training adaptation, keeping you focussed and committed to your workout anytime of day or night.
6. 100% Casein Protein
100% Casein Protein is vital to anybody wanting to refuel their muscles during sleep, when it is impractical to consume food or drink. During this period your body can enter into starvation mode and may start to break down muscle tissue. This could have a negative impact on both muscle recovery and performance. As a result 100% Casein Protein is digested slowly over a sustained period of time (up to seven hours), thus supplying your muscles with the amino acids required to synthesise muscle tissue, facilitating repair and growth.
100% Casein Protein hosts a complete amino acid profile and contains vital branched chain amino acids (BCAAs) which are the building blocks for new proteins. With minimal fat and carbohydrates, this product certainly compliments the desired goals of a calorie-controlled diet.
7. Critical Oats
Critical Oats Protein Porridge is the perfect on-the-go breakfast or snack. Delivering a well-balanced blend of 100% organic wholegrain oats, high levels of protein including ISO-XP Protein Isolate, and also features MCT Powder (Healthy Fats) which are ideal for your active lifestyle. You can also put your Critical Oats into your protein shake to bulk it out and add some volume, perfect for if you are wanting to gain more mass.
Critical Oats Protein Porridge is an excellent source of carbohydrates for energy and fibre to aid digestion. It also contains over 3g of soluble fibre which can help lower your cholesterol levels.
8. Fit Cuisine Peanut Butter

9. High Protein Shake 500ml
Applied Nutrition’s High Protein Shake is perfect for an on-the-go snack or a post-workout pick-me-up. It is a delicious, smooth and creamy milkshake with no added sugar, low fat and a massive 42g of protein per bottle. The 500ml High Protein Shakes comes in 5 mouth-watering flavours:

10. Critical Cookie
