The RPM Formula

**EBF_2356** · 10-05-2011 06:05 PM

Hi, sorry if this may have been covered, but the rpm formula sees a vasodilation list of ingredients, but then the caffiene and energy complex if im not mistaken making stimulants a vasoconstrictor. Anyone help?

I'll see if I can get you a scientific answer. But honestly from a loooong! Time user of rpm. All I can say is the synergism in the formula just works. Dirk has done an amazing job of putting each ingredient at the precise dose to ensure optimal performance. From personal experience it does produce a pump and a very solid one at that. It delivers on both ends pump and energy and test boosting/aggression. I'll see if I can get the man himself to come in though

until then check this out. Icariin has a PDE5 inhibiting effect, which causes vasodilation and the extreme "pump".

Cheers.
I'm a runner and moving into the duathlon stages. (run bike run)
Still beneficial?
I know icariin is an PDE5 inhibitor. Horny goat weed derivative.
Want the 'best o2 flow' possible

But still giving me a pump, and helping with the intenseness of the running

Look into Drive for endurance

It's on it's way...
I will use it once I have finished my MST stash lol...cheers JJ

That's cool man. I believe it will help. Although I'm a sprinter so my experience is slightly skewed when it comes to endurance events. But like Josh said drive is excellent for this.

**EBF_2356** · 10-05-2011 08:57 PM

Yeah. I also do sprint intervals
4x200
4x400
4x100
4x50

That's a Tuesday for me
Drive is smooth man!
Would
Deff need more of a stim for sprints to get me through hahah

Definitely recommend Drive for endurance. I could literally run for over an hour while I was using it.

Low intensity?
I run hard man...I run above 150bpm. I'm running the 6mil in 42 minutes.
Not that great but pretty decent

I was in the 160-170 range and occasionally would get to the 190's.

**EBF_2356** · 10-05-2011 09:17 PM

Nice...i run relaxed so the 150 bpm for me im running at 17km an hour

That was back in my lighter days (I was trying to drop to 155lbs for MMA) and was using running as the primary tool to cut the weight.

Sweet!!!!
Sweat suits?

No, these were just daily runs for caloric expenditure.

**OrganicShadow** · 10-10-2011 09:11 PM

For your purposes Drive might be more suitable. I think RPM more for the anaerobic training. The two together are a great team but for an endurance based O2 maximizer then yeah, Drive.

man I wish I could run like you guys. I can and do interval sprints all day. but distance running just crushes me I have never been good at distance and im going on 8 yrs in the military lol

I've been a runner all my life (I ran cross country in HS) and it's something that I've always done.

Yes caffeine is a metabolic stimulant but its primary purpose in RPM is to heighten mental alertness, focus and help improve muscle contraction/coordination. As for the effects of the caffeine in regards to the muscular wall of your vessels , it actually has a very strong effect in vasodilation. When caffeine (MXAC in RPM) acts on a cell, cAMP-PDE can no longer turn cAMP into AMP and the action of cAMP is prolonged. When your cAMP levels are increased, the blood vessels in skeletal muscle usually tend to relax and dilate. This results in more voluminous blood flow into the muscle, which in turn results in increased vascularity and pumps. The theobromine in RPM is another vasodilator which ups the amount of nutrients and oxygen into the brain and skeletal muscle.

So basically it's perfect to use pre interval cardio training?
