XCEED™ FAQ

XCEED™ FAQ

Full write-up.

Q. What is in the product?

See the label - Creatine Ethyl Ester HCl, Di-Arginine Malate, L-Taurine, Glucuronolactone.

Q. Why so few ingredients when other CEE products have many?

We have included the relevant ingredients in doses that count. These are listed on the label so you know exactly what you are taking. There is no “proprietary blend” here. Discussion into the inclusion of the listed components and the exclusion of pretty much anything else is laid out in the complete product write-up found here.

Q. Looks good. Where can I buy it?

Retailers will have it in stock well before the week commencing November 14th.

Q. How many servings per tub?

45.

Q. Is 45 servings per tub good value?

If you train four times per week and, hypothetically, take XCEED™ before and after training, it will last you five weeks, so we’d say so yeah. Damn good value.

Q. How many servings should I take before training?

One serving (one scoop) should be sufficient for most users. If you are a typical creatine non-responder, take two.

Q. Can I take this after training also?

You can and should to help replenish phosphocreatine (PCr) stores, promote ATP synthesis and accelerate recovery. In early 2006 we will release the twin brother of XCEED™ that is designed specifically for post-workout recovery – Replenish™.

Once Replenish™ hits, the value of XCEED™ doubles because you won’t need to dose it twice per day.

Q. Awesome – where can I find out more about Replenish™?

Right now, only on our future products page found here.

Q. How does XCEED™ taste?

At standard dose, like lemonade. If you double-dose, it is a more powerful flavour, but nothing unpleasant - quite the contrary, in fact.

Q. So it won’t taste as revolting as plain CEE?

Nope, the lemon blast flavouring masks it quite nicely.

Q. Does it mix well?

As far as CEE formulas go, yeah it doesn’t mix too badly. Due to the nature of the product components, there’ll likely be a few very small clumps at the bottom that may not completely dissolve. In fact, the clumping is a sign that CEE is present because CEE doesn’t dissolve well in water. Stir as best as possible and drink.

Q. If I was to double-dose XCEED™, can I drink some pre-workout and the rest during the workout?

Yes, you can. It is not necessary but that is certainly a good strategy to employ.

Q. How many servings should I take each day?

Depends how often you train each day, but generally one-to-two servings per day are all that is required.

Q. Should I take XCEED™ on my off-days?

It is not absolutely necessary, but it would certainly benefit cellular volumization and the overall anabolic nature of the product. If using XCEED™ for pre-workout benefit, there is no need to take on off-days.

Q. Is it cool I stack stimulants with XCEED™?

The taurine and glucuronolactone will have mild stimulating effects already, so be careful with how much you stack, but in general, yes you can stack stimulants with the product.

Q. Do you recommend stacking anything particular with XCEED™?

Yes, a combination of XCEED™ and BASIC CUTS™ 30-45 minutes before training forms what we call the “Pre-Workout Assault Strategy”. This combination will provide you with cellular volumization for strength, increase blood flow for training pumps and stimulation for sustained energy and focus while you train.

Q. I am dieting. Will XCEED™ hinder my fat loss goals?

No. Unlike some products that try and claim “zero calories” despite including several grams of amino acids (they have 4kcals per gram just like protein, remember), we will admit there are some calories in XCEED™, however, given that we have no included unnecessary sugars, the calorie content is negligible. We would guess approximately 30kcals per serving. This will not hinder dieting.

Q. I am lean bulking. Will XCEED™ make me fat?

No, see above.

Q. Does XCEED™ need to be cycled?

Not absolutely no, but we generally recommend you cycle all supplements except for the staples (multivitamin, fish oil, protein powder and anti-oxidants), to get the best value for your money.

Q. Do I need to do a loading phase?

That is not necessary, no.

Q. I have a medical condition and/or am on medication. Can I use XCEED™?

Always check with your doctor before using any dietary supplement.
