Hi,

Our annual supplement sale starts today. We do this once a year, so if you've been waiting to stock up on performance supplements, now's the time.

Quick recap on how it works: You'll earn 25% Feed Credit on any supplement you buy. Spend $100, get $25 back for your next order. PLUS: SwissRX is 33% off (no code needed, while we have stock).

But here's the real question: With hundreds of supplements available, where do you even start?

If I could only grab five bottles before the warehouse burned down (dramatic, I know), here's what I'd take and why.

1. SwissRX Nitric Oxide Pro

This is the one supplement that's made the biggest difference in my training over the past year.

Two pills every morning, and I notice the difference within hours. More blood flow means I'm ready to go hard when it's time to train. But the real benefit isn't just during workouts—it's cardiac health. Better circulation, lower blood pressure, and I feel like I can sustain hard efforts longer without redlining.

The original SwissRX Nitric Oxide formula works great (6-8 tablets before a workout), but the Pro version is my daily go-to because it's simpler: just two pills in the morning, and you're set.

If you want proof it's working, grab the test strips that come with it. Check your nitric oxide levels before you start, then again after 2 hours. The spike is real.

If someone asks: "It's basically a daily pill that improves blood flow so you can train harder and recover better."

2. SwissRX Synthesis

This is the supplement I tell people about when they say "I'm getting older and it's harder to recover."

Synthesis is built around PeptiStrong—a network of peptides derived from fava beans that activates your body's natural muscle-building pathways (the mTOR pathway, if you want to get technical).

I'm not going to pretend I understand all the science, but here's what I do know: I take four capsules a day, and I bounce back from hard sessions faster than I did a year ago.

The best part? It's not a pre-workout stimulant. It's working in the background, helping your body rebuild. You don't "feel" it the way you feel caffeine—you notice it when you wake up less sore and ready to train again.

Clinical studies show it increases muscle protein synthesis 4x more than whey protein and reduces the muscle breakdown that comes with aging. I started taking it at 50, and I'm convinced it's one of the reasons I'm still getting stronger.

If someone asks: "It's peptides that help your body repair and rebuild faster as you age."

3. Maurten Bicarb

This one's controversial because it's not pleasant to choke down. But if you're doing anything with hard efforts—intervals, races, time trials—this is the edge you're looking for.

Sodium bicarbonate buffers lactic acid. Translation: You can push harder before your muscles start screaming. The problem is that taking straight bicarb usually means stomach issues. Maurten figured out how to encapsulate it in a hydrogel so it releases slowly and doesn't wreck your gut.

Take it 2 hours before your hard effort. Mix it with water, drink it, and wait. You'll know it's working when you hit that interval and realize you can sustain efforts that would've buried you without it. It's like magic how hard you can push when you're on Bicarb.

Here's the thing: Don't save this just for race day. Big mistake.

First, you get more benefit using it once a week in training so you can push your body harder and rebuild stronger. Second, you have to train your body to be used to it. Show up to race day having never taken it before, and you're playing with fire.

Yes, it's unpleasant. But you're doing this to get faster.

If someone asks: "It buffers lactic acid so you can sustain hard efforts longer without blowing up."

4. Nomio

This is the supplement that has the secret buzz among elite athletes right now. Cole Hocker won the 5K World Championships and swears by it. David Roche uses it. Mads Pedersen is on it. And I'm betting it's going to be a top 3 product in 2026.

Here's the deal: Nomio is a broccoli sprout drink that spikes your glutathione production about 2 hours after you take it. Glutathione is your body's master antioxidant, and when levels are high, lactic acid production drops during hard efforts.

Take one bottle 3 hours before your workout, and you'll notice you can sustain harder efforts without that burning, "I'm about to blow up" feeling kicking in as early.

It's not a stimulant. It's not caffeine. It's your body producing more of what it already uses to handle stress. And it works.

If someone asks: "It's a drink that boosts your body's natural ability to handle lactic acid during hard training."

5. Dream Shot

Sleep is the foundation. If you're not recovering at night, nothing else matters.

Dream Shot is a 2oz liquid you take 30 minutes before bed. It's built around PeptiSleep—a peptide derived from rice bran protein that's been clinically shown to increase deep sleep, reduce the time it takes to fall asleep, and block cortisol spikes that wake you up in the middle of the night.

I used to wake up 2-3 times a night. Since adding Dream Shot to my routine, I sleep through the night and wake up actually feeling rested. Not groggy, not hungover—just ready to go.

The best part? It's not a prescription sleep aid. It's working with your body's natural sleep mechanisms. No dependency, no next-day fog.

If someone asks: "It's a shot you take before bed that helps you fall asleep faster and stay asleep through the night."

That's my five.

If I'm being honest, I take all five of these regularly. Nitric Oxide Pro and Synthesis every morning. Dream Shot every night. Maurten Bicarb before hard efforts. Nomio when I know I'm about to push my limits.

They all work. They all make a difference. And they're all on sale right now.
