Universal Nutrition has always been recognized as one
of the most respected supplement companies in the industry. FitFuel.com is proud
to offer products like Universal Animal Pak,
but their newest postworkout formula might be one of
their most effective products yet! Universal Torrent is the most advanced product of its kind. No other post-workout supplement provides the same mix of creatine, amino acids, and an advanced protein blend.
Universal Torrent is
the product you've been waiting for to make all your hard work in the gym pay
off. Your body needs the right mix of nutrients shortly after any workout
session, and nothing else delivers like Torrent. Try it today! The Breakdown 
Torrent sets a
new standard for post-workout (PoWO) nutrition . Though often overlooked, this part of the bodybuilding equation is the most critical aspect in the quest to foster new growth. Properly utilizing this time is vital for inducing overall muscle mass "activation". Torrent's formula is designed to maximize the anabolic "window of opportunity" that exists after a hard training session, when muscle protein synthesis can potentially be stimulated for hours. Simultaneously, the rate of protein degradation is also increased.
In the absence of critical macronutrient intake, a
bodybuilder's protein balance would remain negative. If you want to build muscle
this definitely isn't good. This is where Torrent
comes into play. It acts quickly and efficiently by supplying your muscles with a powerful cascade of criticial nutrients, all in a matter of moments. After a hard workout your muscles are torn down, glycogen is depleted and your body enters a damaging catabolic state. For the bodybuilder, this is a state of red alert.
When consumed immediately after a
workout, Torrent's proprietary blend of muscle mass activators
rush to bring your body back into anabolic "green light" status, quickly
repairing damaged muscle fibers while triggering fresh growth. First and
foremost, it has super high-efficiency protein. Torrent
is loaded with hydrolyzed whey protein, which consists of small whey peptides that can be quickly digested and absorbed. Hydrolyzed protein is the quickest digesting protein available.
Torrent also contains a specialized
Osmosulin Matrix of carbohydrates that allows for quick glycogen replenishment
and the fastest possible absorption of muscle-nourishing nutrients. This blend
is packed with an optimal ratio of complex carbs from innovative, highly prized
waxy maize starch, maltodextrin, and dextrose. This blend allows for a dramatic
boost of anabolic insulin via simple sugars coupled with the nutrient-drawing
effects of "high molecular weight" carbohydrates. The formula is then generously
spiked with 18 grams of a key proprietary blend of advanced aminos and
creatines. A special "anabolic matrix" that will put your muscles in
post-workout recovery overdrive. When consumed immediately after intense
training this potent blend can induce a powerful anabolic surge that shuttles
nutrients into your starved muscle cells. Heightened anabolism, rapid nutrient
transport, insulin potentiating--all delivered by means of a delicious
post-workout growth cocktail. And we mean delicious. Torrent is
an anabolic force mother nature never intended. Blow your plateaus away with
Torrent.

Product Facts:
|
|
|
Does Torrent contain enough
protein?
Yes. Torrent has 20g of protein, but
it's not just regular whey protein. Torrent contains
expensive WPH (whey protein hydrolysates), which is the fastest absorbing
protein of its kind, even faster than free form aminos. After a workout
the goal is to take in only the most efficient sources of nutrients and
WPH is as efficient as it gets. Plus, research suggests that too much
protein isn't efficient as excess can convert to the waste product, urea.
Torrent is lean and efficient and was designed with the
idea that nothing should go to waste. Also, bear in mind that
Torrent contains 8,000mg of a special leucine complex,
bringing up the total amino acid content of Torrent
significantly. For those in the know, leucine may very well be the most anabolic of all the amino acids. This 8,000mg, when combined with WPH, creates a far greater impact than 20g of whey protein concentrate alone.
I've been
hearing a lot about Waxy Maize Starch. What makes it so
special?
Waxy Maize Starch (WMS) is a unique and very expensive "high molecular weight" carbohydrate that has the ability to move through the stomach rapidly. This is ideal for quick glycogen replenishment without "stomach bloat". Just as importantly, WMS has the ability to draw or "pull" other nutrients into your muscles cells along with it-this special "torrent" action makes it an ideal carb for post-workout ingestion.
Why use Waxy Maize Starch in conjunction with
other carbs?
WMS has a "nutrient drawing" effect because of its
high molecular weight. Taken in the Osmosulin Carb Matrix along with
d-glucose and maltodextrin, you combine this rapid gut-passing of aminos
and other nutrients from WMS with the potent insulin spiking properties of
simple carbohydrates. In other words, Torrent
provides a fuller spectrum of various carb sources, each with their own functional advantages.
Do I need to use Torrent on my non-training
days?
No. Torrent
is a post-workout supplement that can optimally be used on training days when your muscles require superior, targeted nutrition.
Why do I need Torrent? Isn't my regular PWO
protein shake enough?
Simply put, no. Recent
studies show that combining whey along with carbs and leucine is more
beneficial than protein alone or protein and carbs alone. The additional
leucine appears to help further stimulate muscle protein synthesis and
maximally optimizes whole protein balance. Leucine is the "money" amino in
terms of anabolism, and Torrent delivers a full 8,000
milligram complex of its most advanced forms. With
Torrent,
all of your postworkout needs are covered in one shot and at a price that is very, very nice. Easily digested protein, an advanced carb blend and 18,000mg of cutting-edge aminos and creatine all in one is a delicious postworkout drink mix.
Does
Torrent need to be "cycled"?
No, as a post-workout shake,
Torrent should be taken after each workout to help supply
your muscles with the right nutrients for muscle growth and repair. There
is no need to cycle it. Regarding the creatines used in
Torrent,
see this FAQ.
Can I
mix Torrent with milk or is water enough?
You can, but for
optimal results, Torrent should be mixed with water.
Torrent
is a complete post-workout shake. Adding milk or other substances to the shake can cause some delay of its absorption-meaning it'll take longer for critical nutrients to reach your muscle cells. 20 oz. of water hand mixed in a standard shaker cup or water bottle is all you need.
Can I use Storm and
Shock Therapy with Torrent?
Yes.
Torrent is designed to fit right along with the tried and
true combination of Shock Therapy and
Storm. Here's how you'd do it: take Shock
Therapy 30 mins pre-workout. Consume Storm
either during your workout or immediately afterwards. Take
Torrent
within 15 minutes after your workout.
Conversely, do I
need another source of creatine other than that contained in
Torrent?
No. While you can stack Torrent with
other creatine products like Animal Pump, Storm and/or
Shock Therapy for greater results, you can also use
Torrent as your sole creatine source.
Torrent contains 3g of creatine including creatine ethyl
ester (CEE) and magnesium creatine chelate (MCC). Bear in mind that, as
you are using Torrent
only on training days, you'll still need to supplement with creatine on your off days.
Taste wise, most postworkout drinks taste
awful? How did you get around this fact with Torrent?
True, it is difficult to mask the flavor of a formula
that includes not only WPH and WMS, but 18g of advanced aminos. But
through months of stringent taste testing protocols and new advancements
in flavoring, we think we created a product you will actually look forward
to consuming.
