Introducing Ghost Legend ALL OUT

Ghost Legend ALL OUT is a maximally-dosed model of the LEGEND pre-workout complement. At 22 grams per serving, it takes the award-winning components to an entire new degree, and in 2024, the pumps simply bought greater in V2.

Now with a Triple Nitrate Mix in V2

Inside, the GHOST LEGEND ALL OUT mix supplies a full yield dose of 6 grams of citrulline from each L-citrulline and citrulline nitrate. New to V2 is full-yield beta-alanine from beta alanine and beta alanine nitrate, after which much more nitrate coming from full-yield betaine with the same mix of beta alanine and beta alanine nitrate, an ingredient we’ve by no means seen earlier than.

However the GHOST SMART ENERGY mix is the place issues actually get tuned up, with an enormous 400 milligrams of caffeine from a mix of caffeine anhydrous and zumXR prolonged launch caffeine. As well as, L-tyrosine and Alpha-GPC doses have been amped up, with further power from theobromine and bitter orange.

It’s all tied along with the GHOST ABSORPTION mix, making for the highest-energy pre-workout complement the model has ever developed. And it’s coming to GNC, for individuals who prefer to Reside Properly and reside… energetic.

We briefly talk about the profile under, however first, examine availability and see our associated movies:

Ghost Legend ALL OUT Elements

Legend ALL OUT is just like earlier variations of GHOST LEGEND, solely… greater and higher. To present you a common concept, the unique Legend pre-workout presently has 300 milligrams of caffeine, whereas ALL OUT clocks in at 400.

Prepare for a loaded, energy-fueled exercise. Let’s rapidly cowl the three main blends under:

Ghost Legend ALL OUT

That is the ergogenic help mix constructed to convey an enormous nitric oxide pump:

Full Yield Citrulline – 6000 mg

GHOST begins the components off with a mixture of two citrulline components — vegan fermented L-citrulline and NO3-T citrulline nitrate, intelligently-formulated to yield a complete of six grams of complete citrulline.

L-citrulline is an amino acid that helps improve the physique’s manufacturing of nitric oxide (NO).[1] Improved nitric oxide ranges result in an impact referred to as vasorelaxation, and a 6 gram dose of citrulline has been proven to enhance athletic efficiency and oxygen uptake.[2]

What’s distinctive right here is that GHOST is concentrating on nitric oxide manufacturing via two pathways. On prime of the 6 gram yield of L-citrulline, there’s additionally some nitrate (NO3-) as properly. Whereas L-citrulline works on the l-citrulline-to-l-arginine eNOS pathway,[1] nitrate can result in elevated nitric oxide manufacturing via the nitrate-nitrite-NO pathway.[3,4]

So with these two components mixed, we not solely get a clinically-tested 6 gram dose of L-citrulline, we additionally get a strong quantity of nitrate to additional improve nitric oxide manufacturing.

Full Yield Beta Alanine – 3200 mg

Beta alanine is an amino acid regularly utilized in pre-workout dietary supplements to help muscle buffering. It combines with the important amino acid L-histidine to assist the physique type extra carnosine, a molecule used to buffer acids in muscle tissue.[5] With larger carnosine ranges, we will see improved lactic acid buffering as a way to help efficiency.

There have been two main meta-analyses on beta alanine supplementation: The primary demonstrated that it helps efficiency in workout routines 1-4 minutes lengthy,[6] and the second confirmed that it could actually enhance work capability in workout routines starting from 30 seconds to 10 minutes lengthy.[7] Within the second meta-analysis, the authors concluded the next:

“β-alanine supplementation had a major total ergogenic impact on train”.[7]

Now with beta alanine nitrate!

New in Legend ALL OUT V2 is that we now have a further 0.5 grams of nitrate coming from beta alanine nitrate, including to exercise pumps. The last word yield of beta alanine stays the identical at 3.2 grams, however the added nitrate is yet one more efficiency booster.

The final objective with beta alanine is to get muscle carnosine ranges to saturation,[8] so that is an ingredient we advise taking every day. On non-training days when not utilizing a pre-workout, think about using a further beta-alanine complement.

Full Yield Betaine Anhydrous – 2500 mg

One scoop, 23 grams, 400 milligrams complete caffeine – pour rigorously!

To not be confused with beta alanine, betaine anhydrous is one other well-liked pre-workout ingredient that serves a number of functions. It’s also referred to as trimethylglycine, containing three methyl teams that function methyl donors for essential processes within the physique.[9] Betaine additionally capabilities as an osmolyte, supporting improved water steadiness and mobile hydration throughout the physique.[10]

Analysis has proven {that a} 2.5 gram every day dose — the quantity we now have right here in GHOST LEGEND ALL OUT — can result in:

Improved athletic efficiency[11-14]
Elevated muscle mass features[15,16]
Better fats loss and physique recomposition[17]

With this analysis, it’s no shock that we see betaine in so many pre-workout dietary supplements, this one included.

Now with betaine nitrate in V2!

As soon as once more, we now have the identical 2.5 gram dose of betaine, however get much more nitrate-baesd pumps from an added 0.35 grams of nitrate as a result of gram of betaine nitrate added. This components actually smashes.

Ghost Sensible Vitality

We’ve by no means seen a Ghost power mix like this! Earlier than diving in, it’s essential to notice {that a} single scoop of LEGEND ALL OUT has a whopping 400 milligrams of caffeine, a few of which is available in extended-release style. Should you’re not sure of your stimulant tolerance, check with half of a scoop to evaluate.

L-Tyrosine (Vegan Fermented) – 2000 mg

L-Tyrosine is an amino acid that’s used to enhance focus and power ranges by supporting the manufacturing of catecholamine neurotransmitters like dopamine and noradrenaline.[18] It’s been proven to mitigate stress and improve efficiency in navy analysis.[19,20]

What’s spectacular right here in LEGEND ALL OUT is that GHOST doubled their customary dose – LEGEND has a gram, however they took its tyrosine to the subsequent degree with the ALL OUT model.

Alpha-GPC (Alpha-Glyceryl Phosphoryl Choline 50%) (delivering 300mg Alpha-GPC) – 600 mg

Alpha GPC isn’t simply good for enhancing mind operate, it could actually additionally ship some large energy features (when dosed at 600mg or larger).[21]

Alpha-GPC is a highly-bioavailable type of choline, a B-vitamin that’s essential to the structural integrity of cell membranes.[22] It’s the precursor to acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter that helps studying, working reminiscence, and inter-neuron communication.[23] Animal fashions present that Alpha-GPC is ready to cross the blood-brain barrier.[24]

In a single examine revealed in 2008, a 600 milligram dose of alpha-GPC confirmed considerably improved leg energy and post-exercise serum development hormone in comparison with placebo.[25] One other examine revealed in 2015 confirmed that the identical 600 milligram dose taken over the course of six days was efficient at growing decrease physique drive manufacturing.[21]

Caffeine – 400 mg (from 300 mg Caffeine Anhydrous and 139 mg zumXR Prolonged Launch Caffeine [delivering 100mg caffeine])

GHOST’s buyer base (referred to as Legends) wished extra caffeine, and so they positive bought it right here! The whopping complete caffeine yield of 400 milligrams is properly past something the model has ever launched.

Anybody contemplating taking LEGEND ALL OUT ought to know the way caffeine impacts them at this level. It blocks the adenosine receptor, selling wakefulness, growing neural exercise within the mind, and lowering emotions of fatigue.[26,27] Moreover, it could actually improve the discharge of dopamine, resulting in its feel-good results.[28]

Caffeine has been proven to enhance bodily train efficiency in each cardio and anaerobic workout routines and sports activities.[29]

What’s distinctive right here is the fully-disclosed mix, the place zumXR Prolonged Launch Caffeine is utilized to lengthen the power generated from the pre-workout. This, together with theobromine (the subsequent ingredient), leads us to counsel you to not use this pre-workout too near bedtime — perceive your caffeine cut-off time!

Moreover, do not forget that this can be a giant dose of caffeine, and isn’t meant for newbies. If not sure of your caffeine tolerance, start with half of a scoop or run a bath of the unique LEGEND first.

PureWay-C (Ascorbic Acid and Citrus Bioflavonoids)

With the entire added nitrates in Legend ALL OUT V2, it’s not shocking to GHOST’s followers that vitamin C has been added to the components as properly. And as anticipated, it comes within the type of PureWay-C, the Legends’ most popular type, detailed under.

Vitamin C is well-known for its antioxidant properties,[30,31] its supplementation might help nitric oxide manufacturing by itself[32] whereas combating deficiencies that would restrict athletic efficiency.[33] Analysis exhibits it could scale back soreness and post-workout muscle harm biomarkers.[34,35] We’ve additionally seen lowered fatigue in dieters on calorie-restricted diets when utilizing vitamin C.[36]

Why PureWay-C?

Brief reply: PureWay-C consists of bioflavonoids, and there are no less than 4 revealed research displaying larger bioavailability, vitamin c retention, and overrall efficacy.[37-40]

As an illustration, in a 2008 examine, researchres put PureWay C up in opposition to three different types of vitamin C (ascorbic acid, Ester-C [ascorbate-calcium threonate-dehydroascorbate], and calcium ascorbate), in the end concluding the next:[37]

“PureWay-C supplementation results in the very best absolute serum vitamin C ranges when in comparison with AA, CaA and Ester-C. PureWay-C supplies a statistically vital larger serum degree than calcium ascorbate at 1, 2, 4, and 6 hours put up oral supplementation”[37]

We’ve seen PureWay-C in lots of different dietary supplements, together with Ghost Pump, Ghost Hydration, and Ghost Glow, so that is positively no shock, however a welcomed addition.

Theobromine – 100 mg

Join alerts on our Ghost information web page so that you don’t miss any information!

Theobromine is a metabolite of caffeine, and a associated member of the methylxanthine class of alkaloids. Its results are just like these of caffeine, however extra delicate and longer-lasting because of its longer half-life.[41]

With each theobromine and zumXR Prolonged Launch Caffeine (mentioned above), GHOST LEGEND ALL OUT is designed to last more, whereas additionally lowering caffeine crashes.

Bitter Orange (Citrus aurantium) Fruit extract – 60 mg

Also called citrus aurantium, bitter orange fruit extract accommodates quite a few metabolites and flavonoids with a number of metabolic advantages.[42] Of its flavonoids are flavones, flavanones, and flavonols which have varied health-promoting properties, and there are additionally phenylethylamine alkaloids proven to enhance metabolic charge and power expenditure.[43]

Whereas we’re undecided what GHOST’s bitter orange is standardized for, pre-workout dietary supplements are typically formulated for power and metabolic charge enchancment, so we will seemingly count on it to be geared in that path.

GHOST ABSORPTION

AstraGin (Astragalus membranaceus and Panax notoginseng) Root extracts – 50 mg

Lastly, AstraGin is a well-liked ingredient from NuLiv Science, developed to enhance the absorption of the remainder of the components. AstraGin is extracted from astragalosides and ginsenosides, that are botanical compounds from astragalus and ginseng (respectively) that present varied well being advantages.[44,45]

Inside information from NuLiv Science exhibits an elevated uptake of amino acids and nutritional vitamins, together with L-citrulline, which is right here in LEGEND ALL OUT:[46]

One in all AstraGin’s hottest use-cases is its potential to reinforce citrulline absorption – particularly proper after we’d need it: throughout our exercise![46]
