Torrent (Universal)

Torrent™ sets a new standard for post-workout (PWO) 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 post-training, 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™.

I'm not big on post-workout supplements, mainly because I'd rather eat whole food - if I need simple carbohydrates, I'd rather have some Lucky Charms than a powdered supplement. However, the formula on Torrent is solid - though there is a hefty amount of sugar - 26 grams - I like the mix of malto, glucose and waxy maize. And because of all that sugar, I tend to et a pretty big energy rush, which is nice as I usually feel exhausted after a workout. In addition, my muscles get nice and pumped after taking this, which is always a plus. If I had my way, I would put more protein in the formula, as there's 20 grams. It's debatable how much your body would actually absorb, considering that it's all whey anyway. A blend would be nice, but you can't have everything. Overall, a solid product but not a must-have.

Wow, is this supposed to be one of those fancy smoothies or a supplement. Because if it weren't for the great benefits and effects of Universal Torrent, I'd say the former. But I know better. It's obvious that great thought went into selecting the ingredients for this tasty (treat?) supplement. When you think of a post-workout protein shake, you normally think of recovery, right. Because that's what a post-workout product is supposed to deliver on. It's supposed to decrease recovery time and allow you to come back bigger and stronger than ever. And that is precisely where Universal Torrent shines the brightest. The energy and mixability aren't half-bad, either. Not to mention, the safety of the ingredients has been proven, making it a wise choice. One criticism I do have of this product, however, which is consistent for most post-workout proteins, is that there are only 15 servings per ~$35 worth, which means it will be expensive. The question you must ask yourself is if it's worth paying the extra cash for a high-quality product,or if you'd rather pay a little less for a little less quality product.

First off, green apple avalanche tastes amazing. mixes well also. Profile in on spot with over 50g carbs and 20g protein. The formula also contains 3 types of creatine and a nice leucine complex. You can't go wrong with Universal's Torrent.

Guys, this is a real solid supplement. I've been a skeptic about post workout supplements for quite some time, but was given a chance recently to get a free tub of the new flavor of Torrent, green apple. This is by far the best tasting supplement I have ever used. It tastes exactly like a sour apple Blow Pop. It is like a reward for all of the hard work you did in the gym. You can literally feel the protein and carbs replenishing your muscles. After taking this, it feels like I can run back to the gym and do my workout all over again. Muscle soreness dramitcally decreased while on Torrent. It is a little pricey, but worth it. If I could afford it, it would be a staple in my regime.

Universal Torrent is a great staple to add to any post workout. This product refuels you after your workout and tastes great in the process. The taste is actually so good it's like a reward for working out. Since adding Torrent into my supplements, I have noticed increased muscle retention, more solid full feeling muscles, and I don't feel as exhausted. Typically I would be out of it after an intense session, but with Torrent I am able to bounce back and feel replenished. The protein and carb ratios are vital to increasing muscle mass and fueling the body at its most important feeding time, post workout. I feel this supplement gives me everything I need to recover. Solid product for a solid price.

Torrent is a product you certainly want to have in your arsenal. It contains anti-catabolic ingredients like L-Leucine and Leucine AKG which worked great. It has an volubolic amino blend of taurine, akg, citrulline malate, and L-Phenylanine. Lastly, it contains creatine and 20 grams of protein in each serving. The Cherry Berry Blast flavor grows on you and at the end you find yourself enjoying it even more. The best way to enjoy is to put it ice water with 20 ounces of water. This product is wonderful for hard and rigorous training. Post-workout represents a time where new growth is possible and Torrent maximizes this by including protein to stimulate new growth. It also has a special delivery system called Osmosulin to get those carbs in your system to increase "anabolic insulin". It mixes well and you feel refreshed. This product is one of the best post-workout products in my book. It taste great, mixes with little clumps, no side effects, helps for recovery, and creatine gives you added muscle gain.

Loved this product...I've tried many different post workout supplements and this is by far the best one I've tried. I love the nutritional profile. From the creatine, to the Waxy Maize Starch, this profile is top notch. After a streneous workout, recovery is great with Torrent and it all starts with the 20 grams of protein plus large leucine complex. I also like the extras like the Citrulline Malate, Glutamine Alpha Ketoglutarate... I get a nice post workout pump from this which helps motivate me to continue working my butt off. The taste is interesting.. To me, it tastes like a melted cherry popsicle. In my opinion, it has a nice amount of carbohydrates to take in post workout when the muscles are thirsting for nutrients. Being on a bulk myself, the 300 calories is substantial as well as its hard to take in so many calories per day so this helps, if even just a little bit. Mixability is great, but then again I mix this with water in a blender. Overall, I love this product and will continue taking this.

I took my first dose yesterday after a grueling leg workout. My gym has no air conditioning and we are suffering through a heat wave right now, so I beat myself up in there pretty bad especially on leg day, trying to force these damn things to grow.

Taste: 9/10 Cherry Berry Blast. Universal ALWAYS has excellent flavoring systems, and this is no exception. A bit tart and creamy, but goes down nice. Need to try it blended with some ice. I heard possible new flavors are in the works.

Formula: 10/10 SOLID FORMULA. 8 grams of our favorite amino acid leucine + citrulline malate, taurine and creatine in various forms. Plus it includes whey hydrolysates and wazy maize starch. Excellent.

Efficacy: 10/10 Absolutely no DOMS today what so ever. VERY impressed after one day!

Price: 7/10 $31.99 for 15 servings here at BB.com, comes out to $2.13/serving. Working out 5 days a week, this will last you 3 weeks. I also heard there may be talk of making a "bulk" size Torrent which would be cheaper.

So far I am VERY impressed.
