MAN Sports Game Day
Go to StoreThe new formula of MAN Sports GAME DAY is out! Click the link to read about it on our blog, or compare prices here on PricePlow!
The FDA has spoken, and supplement companies must adapt. MAN Sports is one of those companies.
Their legendary Game Day preworkout product had to go back to the drawing board to find a suitable replacement for the famed stimulant. But they didn't just strip the DMAA, slap on a new label, and call it a day. While they were reformulating the product anyway, MAN Sports took a look at the whole formula, and decided to start from scratch and release a superior product based on clinically research ingredients. The new formula is outstanding, and surpasses the already high bar set by its predecessor .
What are the Ingredients?
The new formula touts some big name ingredients with significant industry cloud behind them such as GPLC, and judging by the label it's not hard to see why the product is getting such outstanding reviews in the fitness community.
The only minor nitpick we have is that they've elected to use a proprietary blend on the label instead of the open labels they've used on past preworkout products. Without further ado, let's dive into the ingredients and see why this is the perfect preworkout product to get you pumped up on Game Day.
The label is broken up into 3 proprietary blends of ingredients, starting with the 2135mg "pump" blend:
Instant Nitric Oxide Stimulator Blend
-
Glycerol Monostearate
This component of fat is naturally found in many foods, and has the potential when combined with hydration to significantly volumize the blood. Greater blood volume can lead to greatly enhanced pumps, and better nutrient delivery.
-
GlycoCarn GPLC (Glycine Propionyl-L-Carnitine HCL)
GPLC is a patented form of the popular performance enhancing and nootropic compound Carnitine. Developed by 'Sigma-Tau Health Science', this form of Carnitine has a TON of published data demonstrating its effectiveness in areas such as: Increasing exercise capacity, increasing plasma nitrite/nitrate levels, elevating nitric oxide synthase. This ingredient will help you experience skin-bursting pumps.
-
L-Norvaline
Norvaline can increase NO production by inhibiting the enzyme Arginase that metabolises Arginine, thus keeping the Arginine <-> Citrulline cycle going for longer. There are no published sports performance related studies involving norvaline, however its role as an arginase inhibitor has been documented by this study and it is a generally accepted function of the compound.
-
Rutacaerpine
This alkaloid extract from the plant evodia rutaecarpa and induces vasodilation via an as of yet unknown endothelium and NO independent way. You can read a great summary on the effects of this compound here.
Growth Factors
Next up is their much hyped 'PF3' blend of growth factors totalling up to 500mg.
This is an area of some ambiguity in the product, as they describe this ingredient as being a proprietary extract of growth factors from protein. They tout several growth factors being in the blend such as 'IGF-1', 'Immunoglobulins' , and 'TGFB-1'. These probably don't mean a lot to you, and some of them aren't even actually bioavailable.
The leading contributor here is the 'IGF-1', this bioactive peptide is responsible for a plethora of beneficial effects in the body such as muscle growth, better insulin regulation, increased testosterone, increased adrenal hormone release, and much more.
The concern with this (and all other oral IGF-1 products) is oral bioavailability. IGF-1 is a high molecular weight peptide, and the human digestive system has limited ability to process and absorb these peptides into the bloodstream. Nonetheless, there is some evidence to suggest the potential for oral bioavailability, and if it works, there are significant positive effects to be had. Beyond the IGF-1 we can't really say too much about this ingredient as there is simply limited information given.
The Stimulant Blend
Finally, the part Game Day fans are looking for, the stimulant blend. The product packs in a 252mg blend of:
-
Caffeine
The most widely used and studied stimulant in the world. If you're interested in reading a great research review that summarizes all the studies done on Caffeine, this position stand by the authors at the Journal of the International Society of Sports Nutrition does a great job of explaining them, and the full text of the article is available for free. This is a staple of nearly every stimulant blend.
-
Dendrobium Alkaloids
The heir apparent to the stimulant market, dendrobium extracts have been making waves ever since driven sports introduced the ingredient to the market in their critically-acclaimed Craze Preworkout. Specifically these extracts are usually targeted for their potent phenethylamine analogue content.
-
Rauwolscine
A more familiar name for this ingredient is alpha-yohimbine. This Yohimbine derivative acts in the same ways as yohimbine, but has shown significantly more potent serotonergic effects.
-
Black Tea Extract (20% Theaflavins)
Black tea contains a number theaflavin compounds that are highly potent antioxidants, as well as other stimulants such as theophylline and theombromine.
MAN Sports Game Day
-
N-Acetyl-L-Tyrosine
This ingredient is a more bioavailable form of the amino acid tyrosine. Tyrosine is a mental stimulant that can increase alertness, wakefulness, and attenuate the effects of sleep deprivation
The stimulant complex in this supplement is VERY potent, if you like your preworkouts with a kick this is exactly the product for you. We're not sure how they did it, but the dendrobium extract being used by MAN Sports here seems to take the blend of stimulants to a whole new level, far beyond what one would expect given the rest of the ingredients and the size of the blend.
In fact, the product packs such a punch that it even caught self-professed stimulant junkie Marc 'The Machine' Lobliner by surprise as you can see in his video blog review of the product. Do not underestimate the stimulant blend in this product, even if you're a seasoned veteran of stimulant-filled preworkout products. We really advocate that you start with half a scoop to weigh your tolerance to the supplement.
Are there Any Side Effects?
As with any other stimulant-based supplement, the side effects typically come down to the stims and your tolerance for them. While some dendrobium alkaloids have been shown to be safe, we are not exactly sure what is being extracted for here.
The main concern is the overconsumption of caffeine, which is why this product should not be taken alongside any other caffeinated or stimulant-based products - including tea or coffee.
Some users have reported allergic reactions to yohimbe-based supplements as well, so start with a light dosage. If you know that you do not like alpha-yohimbine, then this product may not be for you.
The pump ingredients, GPLC and glycerol monostearate have been shown to be safe, but it is always best to consult a doctor before beginning any diet or supplementation program, as these statements have not been approved by the FDA.
Where to Buy Game Day
If you want to give Game Day a try then just take a look at the price comparison on this page and you'll be able to find the best price at an online store. Online stores are almost always cheaper than buying at brick and mortar stores because there is way less overhead involved with running an online store.
