I ordered 120 grams, what dosage

PeakO2 tm - primaforce and the ingredients are the same. Is it different?
I personally like 4g/day pre workout, but 2g is certainly fine. Non workout days I personally use in the morning.

Primaforce Peak02 is the same ingredient, but it’s a powder. Many of us have used that option in the past, and generally find the taste isn’t great. I didn’t look forward to taking it each day lol. Some find the taste unbearable. Hence why SNS releasing the caps was so welcomed.

I think the texture and mixing was really part of it too. I didn't find it intolerable, but ya not the greatest.

There are plenty of places that you can find ours at a great deal for a single bottle.
They have sns one bottle for 50 bucks so I went with primaforce for 20 bucks. I am not seeing the sns peakO2 on amzn right now.

PeakO2 doesn't taste that bad, not as bad as hmb or arginine.
4g a day for 30 days starting today.

PEAK02 isn't listed on Amazon yet but should be in the next couple of days. It should be listed at 29.99.

PEAK02 powder is one of the few powders I can't take - I find the taste just terrible. Probably doesn't help that I hate the taste of mushrooms anyway.

no, peak02 is the trademarked ingredient, it should be the same (dosages could be diff and obviously price) but the ingredient is the same

Creatinol O Phosphate seems to work the best with it and is great for endurance. That's why DPS is running that stack of buy 2 PEAK02 caps, get a free Creatinol O Phosphate with them. But they do also have the Creatinol O Phosphate for sale individually at a great deal - 18.97 (minus 20%) so 15.18 for 450 capsules @ 500 mg. each:

You could check out SNS COP.

I’m finding the ActiGin in Anabolic Effect helps endurance as well.
Im also a big fan of COP. one of the most misunderstood/forgotten ingredients out there. I wish it was in more daily type formulas too

In my experience Cordyceps is where the endurance benefits are coming from.

While Militaris is probably the driving factor and why it is the leading mushroom in the blend, I don't think it would be completely fair to discount the others.

We have to keep in mind with this we actually have studies showing the blend is beneficial for these outcomes, so the blend as a whole is shown to improve them.

Then we have to keep in mind the nature of mushrooms. They aren't going to be like ingredients that have direct immediate effects. They help us recover (in general) from stress (mental and physical activities).

So while the Militaris may be helping a lot (maybe being the prime additive for ATP production and oxygen consumption), the others may be helping with immune boosting, stress reduction, etc. in ways that allow us to push training intensity and volumes and then subsequently recover from those training bouts better to help foster a stronger performance baseline afterwards.

I love this ingredient and probably use it more than near anyone else on this forum. I think it is great and the fact you can get benefits both with low dose (1-2g) over a long period of time or large doses in a shorter period means some pretty cool versatility for those looking to benefit from it.

I will know for sure tomorrow. Last week I did farmers walk for 5 min straight which I don't normally do with my regular workout and I was dead for the next two days. Hopefully, PeakO2 provides the endurance and recovery.

For me the endurance is very noticeable while the recovery is less noticeable. That’s just with me though.

SNS themselves aren’t on Amazon. They have retailers that purchases and put it for sale. So it’s dependent on when the retailers place orders. I feel like AE was on Amazon within 4-6 weeks after release, but I may be wrong.

Gotcha, was just curious.

Secondly question to whomever would like to answer. I am assuming Peak02 is primarily geared towards the endurance/performance spectrum (much heavier on the cord aspect vs. focus/adaptogen like the lions mane and reishi)? Being a blend obviously you can't tell how much of each strain is in it.

In my experience, yes, it’s more geared towards endurance/performance. You could notice a nice adaptogenic/nootropic-like effect on cognition, though. I notice cognitive benefits, but I tend to find adaptogens in general (notably KSM-66 and PrimaVie) work well for me regarding cognition.

I’ve seen some people say use it year-round. I think I remember seeing one website saying hit around 28g in total, then take 1g day afterwards to “maintain”. No idea how accurate that is. The next time I use it, I’ll probably go 4g/day for a week or so, then use at 2g daily after that

Wouldn't expect a ton of focus from it, the Lions Mane is down a few ingredients in the blend.

At 4g total dosage though I'd still bet you are getting a sizeable Reishi and a decent Lions Mane dose.

They are all pretty heavy on adaptogenic benefits though.

do people just take this stuff year-round or what, is there a "tolerance" or diminishing effect?
I cycle off every so often, but I don't think you need to, I just cycle everything.

I bump up the dosage (4g) during more strenuous times (both in and out of the gym) as I feel the benefits are related to its ability to help you "cope" with the stress to come back stronger.

I know that one retailer already submitted the information for the listing and has it on the way to the Amazon for prime. Since we don't handle this directly ourselves, I don't know how long exactly it will be but I would hope within the next 2 weeks.

The research on PEAK02 is geared more towards endurance but I would also expect other benefits including cognitive, focus, and immune support.

Some people cycle almost all of their supplements in some type of fashion but there are many people, especially on the general health side of things that use adaptogens and mushrooms year round.

Take year round.
When Mike M (previous owner of Scivation) studied and put this in Xtend Perform/Elite he used it on endurance athletes at the University of North Carolina. Think of it as a performance enhancer for VO2 max output for training. Do I think general gym goers make see a difference? That will vary from person to person. For those who do more endurance or higher intensity based work you may see greater benefits, but again that is a subjective statement. I would say start a 2g and work up to 4g and see how you respond with the different dosing.

Absolutely loving the endurance/strength from this stuff! I'm surprised how well it works especially for the price. Best product I've tried in this category. Got my roommate to jump on the bandwagon as well. I have another friend who is curious but is allergic to mushrooms, I'm assuming he should should not try this?

Agree great high quality supplement from SNS brand

Sometimes it feels like being on cardarine

Hmhh not a dr and can’t give advice .. but if I was allergic to something no I would not take it

Or

Me personally would start at low dosage .. maybe just 1 cap for first 3 days .. then 2 caps next 3-4 days and in week 2 if everything seems good and gets no side effects at a full dosage ( always play it safe )

I agree with gq that I would likely avoid it to be safe (I guess depending on what type of reaction tho too... itchy eyes/sneezing I would prob try at low dose but any type of swelling or anything and no chance)

It really is a great overall product with benefits for nearly anyone regardless of training style.

I personally wouldn't advise someone who's allergic to mushrooms to take a mushroom product.

Depending upon the allergy, it is possible that he could end up in the Hospital (or even dead).

Years ago, a friend of mine picked up my antibiotic bottle and read it.
He then later rubbed his face, and had to go to the ER.

I second this. Even if the active isn't the thing they are allergic to, it could still be contaminated and contain allergens.

With so many other useful ingredients out there like Betaine, Baking Soda, Creatine, etc, it doesnt make sense for someone to put themselves at risk.

Btw SNS - you are one of the supp brands I trust to not spike thermo products, yet your Thermagize XT feels like it to me. I mean that in a good way. The stim effect comes on completely unlike the label would make you think it would. I am one of those foolish people who has pushed their stimulant tolerance so high they can’t feel caffeine or most thermo products, but I get a big hit of core temp increase and that stimulant buzz is suspiciously strong and long lasting! I haven’t seen it in stock for quite a while anywhere. Are you all still producing it, or do you plan to do any more production runs?
I’ll let @sns8778 answer on the production side

As for effects .. I remember him working on it and him saying that I think I created one of the best stim/thermo product and I tried 1 capsule and I was like yea you have lol

Unfortunately it’s too strong for me and I kinda got scared of the strong effects .. I do keep a bottle aside on a dragging day when my son doesn’t let me get any sleep and works like no other

Those dosages were fooled around a lot and came up with the formula .. hopefully we will always have it on a market .. not a lot are educated on it and they just want Dmaa dmaa or some crazy label product name of schedule 3 drugs

Glad you had found a product that you can use .. It killed my appetite like no other and I love food .. if I get too fat I know what to take lol

In people with mushroom allergies, sometimes they are allergic to a specific one and sometimes they are allergic to a lot of different ones so I would unfortunately say if I were him, I wouldn't try it.

I’m pumped to see SNS producing this! I am an endurance athlete (cycling & running) and strength train also for aesthetics and injury prevention.
For several years I have alternated year round between using forskolin 95 @ 75-100mg/day for several months during build phases, then switching to peak O2 @2-4g/day for ~ 8 weeks during competitive periods. I’ve only used Primaforce’s powder Peak O2 and gotten some through scivation’s past products. The primaforce powder tastes strangely good, I would miss that with caps but still applaud another good (and reputable) supplier in SNS!

I’ve found over the years that supps marketed for endurance don’t really help much with steady state cardio type endurance, but moreso with more brief/intense muscular endurance... for steady state cardio / long distance endurance, peak O2 (and good quality cordyceps) is my favorite. IME it far surpasses more hyped substances, even far more than cardarine. I don’t see this reported, but I get a significant pro-sexual effect the first few weeks of starting Peak O2... I wouldn’t be surprised if it is boosting endogenous LH, but it could also be the immune support perhaps preventing the endurance training from affecting testosterone levels as much or something else altogether. Muscle recovery doesn’t seem to be boosted like taking something hormonal, but it does seem to improve whole body recovery after endurance events & training. Great stuff, would love to see this competitively priced in the near future.
Thank you. I'm glad that you like PEAK02. It's a great product, especially when taken daily like its supposed to be.

I've never used Cardarine but we've had several people say that they found it better for true endurance purposes, especially for steady state/long distance purposes like you said.

For me, I definitely notice improved endurance and improved recovery both between sets and between workouts.

Thank you. I'm glad that you like Thermagize XT so much. It is loaded with ingredients that work very well together to produce an intense fast acting, long lasting energy. Our goal was to make the strongest one capsule dose energizer and I definitely think it is.

We are still making it and hope to have it back available in the next couple of weeks.

I’d just stick to the normal 2-3g EPA + DHA daily, dosed away from workouts. I just skimmed the article you posted, but I don’t think the 1g of DHA was necessarily before a workout. Generally, anything that can act as a COX-2 inhibitor may be most optimal away from your workout.
