Its 2023....In the last 70 years there has been more technological innovation on earth than there has been in the previous 4 billion years. In your pocket you have a device that has a more powerful computer than those that were used when we went to the moon and more powerful than those that used to control our nuclear capabilities. You have a more powerful camera than what hollywood used for film 20 years ago. You have the vast majority of human knowledge via the internet in your pocket yet sports nutrition has basically stalled out. We see the vast majority of brands just copy whatever they can from other companies and then market them as THEIR awesome new creation. Obviously this is complete BS. If you look at the label of 99% of the sports nutrition products out there they are literally all the same. Innefective, underdosed, tired or cloned.
2023 is going to be a big year for BLR and sports nutrition.
We started by refreshing our current line. Making improvements where we can as tech and research has given me some new tools.
Letrone 2 is majorly more powerful than #1 and Vector #2 is no different. You might be familiar with the ingredients because the plants of origin are the same but this is a whole new beast.
On the label: You will still see Korean mistletoe, Eriobotrya Japonica and Rehmannaie but there are some major differences.
Each is a blend of standardized extracts that target the active compounds. Sort of like saying coffee extract but its caffeine extracted from coffee if you get my drift.
100% these are extracts of the plants on the label and we meet legal label standards but you absolutely cannot obtain any extract with these ratios. Period. The new version is more powerful by an order of magnitude and we have seen some amazing results in test subjects.
I think you will be happy
In addition we added our trademarked BioX bioavailability complex.
Its important to mention that not all bioavailability enhancement agents are created equal.
There are many things that can lead to reduced oral bioavailability and especially when we are talking about plant extracts with dozens of actives and multiple plant extracts in a single product. In this case we need to work from many different angles to ensure that we increase the bioavailability of as many of the actives as possible. Insert BioX. I wont waste time by explaining how the ingredients work but I will say that I dont know of any other 1 shot bioavailability package that even compares.

Helps prevent muscle loss
Eriobotrya Japonica (EJ) or Loquat is a fruiting plant commonly used for food, added to alcholic beverages and sometimes used for health and longevity. EJ contains a host of interesting chemicals with a number of effects that are beneficial to those looking to build muscle, burn fat or increase athletic performance. Loquat for bodybuilders? On the surface EJ doesnt seem to be super exciting but nothing could be further from the truth. There have been a number of studies indicating that the proper extract at a high enough dose can lead to gains in muscle mass, strength and fat loss. Studies indicate EJ Increases the expression of myogenic genes MyoD, Myogenin and MyHC. This increased expression corresponds with an increase in the activity of Creatine Kinase a myogenic differentiation marker. Finally EJ activates the AKT/mTOR pathway and subsequently promotes muscle protein synthesis and a gain in lean muscle mass. In studies EJ was shown to prevent muscle atrophy and increase muscle hypertrophy so its great if your cutting and want to preserve muscle and its great if you want to bulk.
AKT/Mtor
Akt is known as effector of insulin/IGF-1 signalling and it can induce muscle hypertrophy through a pathway involving rapamycin-sensitive mTOR.
mTOR regulates PGC-1a expression, which is a key regulator of mitochondria biogenesis, and the expression of PGC-1a has been implicated in the control of skeletal muscle mass. The activation of the Akt/mTOR pathway and its downstream targets, p70S6K and PHAS-1/4E-BP1, is requisitely involved in regulating skeletal muscle fiber size. Acute AKT activation also leads to a decrease in adipose tissue (fat loss)
QUOTE"
The pathways that are sufficient to induce hypertrophy in skeletal muscle have been the subject of some controversy. We describe here the use of a novel method to produce a transgenic mouse in which a constitutively active form of Akt can be inducibly expressed in adult skeletal muscle and thereby demonstrate that acute activation of Akt is sufficient to induce rapid and significant skeletal muscle hypertrophy in vivo, accompanied by activation of the downstream Akt/p70S6 kinase protein synthesis pathway. Upon induction of Akt in skeletal muscle, there was also a significant decrease in adipose tissue. These findings suggest that pharmacologic approaches directed toward activating Akt will be useful in inducing skeletal muscle hypertrophy and that an increase in lean muscle mass is sufficient to decrease fat storage."
MyHC
Myosin heavy-chain synthesis rate is correlated with measures of muscle strength, circulating insulin-like growth factor 1 and
dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate in men and women and free testosterone levels in men.
MyoD
both MyoD and myogenin genes are necessary in the regenerative process for the proliferation of satellite cells (myoblasts) and for the development of early regenerating fibers (myotubes). The expression of Myod is sufficient to convert a fibroblast to a skeletal muscle cell,
