The MHP brand is an acronym for Maximum Human Performance. The choice of name is alone is an indication of the potential you can achieve by using these products.

TWENTY YEARS OF hELPING YOU GET THE MOST OUT OF YOURSELF

The experts at MHP know the secret: what really drives athletes’ performance? The development team strives to turn breakthroughs in the lab into real results in the gym and on the field.

1. Based on recent, rigorous research,
2. and quality ingredients.

They create premium sports nutrition supplements that meet the increased demands of the professional athlete’s overworked body. They can also take the amateur athlete’s performance and results to a new level (close to professional).

In fact, the brand is rooted in bodybuilding and powerlifting, but since opening in 1997, they have opened up to other sports. Their products are used by a wide range of competitors and coaches.

THRIVING ON THE PILLARS OF SCIENCE

MHP’s products are subject to rigorous testing and research before they can enter the market in order to provide a distinctive advantage over other similar products on the market. They contract with universities to conduct clinical studies on the effects of their products, rather than relying on independent research on individual active ingredients.

The taste of a product is important, isn’t it? You’re not alone. The primary need of many users is taste. That’s why MHP uses an advanced technology-based flavouring system. All MHP products are marketed with much tasted flavours and textures. That is, these products are tasted until they reach that perfect taste that leaves almost everyone in a „wow” state after tasting. It is true that taste is quite individual, but the MHP testing team, as one person, can’t be wrong!

Tempting taste. Real results. This is what gives MHP the edge over the competition. And quality!

COMMITTED TO QUALITY

All MHP products are manufactured in a GMP-certified facility. GMP is an acronym for Good Manufacturing Practice. GMP guidelines include strict protocols for manufacturing, testing, quality assurance. In addition, products are certified by Informed-choiced Trusted by Sport. This means that the end result is continously tested by external companies for quality and to ensure that it does not contain prohibited substances.

THEIR MOST POPULAR PRODUCTS

Probolic-SR: the sustained release protein!

From here on, don't settle for the traditional protein powder. One of MHP's biggest innovations is the sustained absorption protein blend. As research has shown it will result in elevated amino acid levels for over 12 hours. That means you can maintain a positive nitrogen balance all day long.¹ What does this mean for performance? The dry matter part of muscle is made up of proteins found in muscle fibres. The amino acids that build proteins are nitrogen-containing compounds. So muscle building requires that the sum of the metabolic processes (anabolism: build-up; catabolism: breakdown) involving net muscle proteins is positive.² This is what is meant by the concept of positive nitrogen balance.

And five of these amino acids are critical for muscle (glutamine, arginine, leucine, isoleucine and valine).³ Studies with Probolic-SR have shown that levels of these five amino acids can remain elevated after up to 12 hours of use. In other words, it supplies muscles with protein when administered slowly as opposed to quickly utilized proteins. In other words, Probolic-SR is best consumed during the day, regardless of training time.

Dark Matter: the dark matter to stimulate your regeneration!

Dark Matter is as new an innovation as the recently discovered dark matter! Unlike Probolic SR, Dark Matter should be consumed immediately after training. Dark Mattert is a muscle recovery supplement designed to replenish muscle-building amino acids and replenish carbohydrate stores burned during training. Thanks to a unique development, it can result in a 360% increase in protein synthesis after exercise.⁴

What is the secret of Dark Matter?

The researchers achieved super-fast protein digestion by adding the amino acids to the formula in free form, meaning the body no longer has to bother breaking down proteins. This is ProSynthaGen® technology.

WaxiMax® contains both slow- and immediate-absorbing carbohydrates, so it will elicit the most optimal insulin response from the body. Why do we need a proper insulin response? The growth hormone that stimulates muscle growth does so through insulin-like growth factor.⁵ This hormone, IGF-1, in turn can increase the sensitivity of insulin and vice versa.⁶ So IGF-1 can cause muscles to absorb more carbohydrates. And hormone balance is a very fine-tuned system, in which both low and high levels of hormones can cause problems. In other words, neither too much insulin nor too little insulin will be good for muscle building. This is why the extremely optimised Dark Matter is a super choice!

Activite Sport: the vitamin for athletes!

Activite Sport is high in B vitamins and energy-boosting plant extracts, as well as digestive aids. Because every athlete knows that achieving maximum sporting performance not only puts a strain on the body, but also on the digestive system as the calorie demand increases.

Hyper Crush: Crush your workouts like the Hulk!

MHP has developed a complex pre-workout formula that combines all the active ingredients that provide energy in a single product. This is particularly important because our bodies can draw energy from a variety of sources during our workouts:

• ATP,
• creatine,
• glycogen
• and fat.
• or even muscle proteins

Furthermore, there are many processes that determine our performance, including:

• The speed and smoothness of blood flow,
• Vitamin B,
• L-carnitine,
• and hormone levels,
• or even mental focus.

The high caffeine content of Hyper-crush will ensure adequate adrenaline levels and mental focus.⁷ The effect of caffeine is further stimulated by N-acetyl-L-tyrosine. This amino acid plays a special role in the formula, as it is the most bioavailable formulation of the amino acid L-tyrosine. Furthermore, on the one hand, it will be used by the body to produce the hormone tyrosine, which the body can use to produce T3 and T4, which are important for energy production.^8,9 On the other hand, N-acetyl-L-tyrosine can increase dopamine (the hormone responsible for reward) levels.¹⁰ N-acetyl-L-tyrosine is therefore a very powerful concentration-booster.

Hyper-crush is also high in creatine; the sole source of fuel for high exertion for up to half a minute.¹¹ Creatine is also produced by our bodies, but to achieve optimal effects, we need to allow time for our bodies to replenish it. If this happens after the first few seconds of exertion (after the ATP circulating in the blood has run out), more creatine will be available, so if the exertion continues after 6-8 seconds, we can perform better for the next half minute. This is particularly useful:

• Range 6-12 repetitions,
• during sprints,
• during interval training
• and when performing burst exercises.

What else do you need for explosive power? Expanding blood vessels! This is where Hyper-crush's citrulline formula will help, by increasing nitric oxide levels, causing vasodilation and thus providing more nutrients to the muscles.¹² Don't be scared of this effect, or the weird words! Dilation of blood vessels is also a coveted process for cardiovascular patients. Think about it; a wider, fast-flowing river will drain more sediment than a narrower, slower river. This is how the amino acid L-citrulline works.

It is important to note that you should consult a doctor before taking Hyper-crush if you have any cardiovascular problems. This is because it contains several active ingredients that affect the heart and blood vessels.

T-bomb: the testosterone bomb!

MHP's testosterone booster has been used by men for nearly a decade to restore testosterone levels to healthy levels. T-bomb's innovative formula can increase free testosterone levels by up to 30% without affecting estrogen (female sex hormone) levels.¹³

The effectiveness of the T-bomb is best illustrated by a study on college students. At first glance, you might think, why would a young adult need a testosterone booster when they're at the peak of their powers? But, as the following study shows, there are situations where even a man in his early twenties can benefit from a testosterone-boosting herbal formula. So take competitive college athletes who train up to nine times a week (!!!). Then let's check their testosterone levels before and after nine weeks of hard work. Researchers studying the effects of the T-bomb did just that. They divided the participants into two groups, one group of athletes received a placebo and the other group received the T-bomb. The workouts were so hard that the placebo group showed a significant drop in testosterone levels after nine weeks (with a corresponding drop in muscle mass). The T-bomb group, on the other hand, showed 30% higher testosterone levels than nine weeks earlier (with a corresponding increase in muscle mass). The results speak for themselves. If it works like this for young people, how might it work for ageing athletes? Try it out and experience it for yourself!
