Ultra PS Gold is listed in the following categories:
Anti-Aging
We all grow older and lose our youthful vigor and vitality. But highly active people who take their nutrition, exercise, and supplementation seriously suffer the ravages of age much less severely (and swiftly) than those who don’t. Fitness-conscious people looking to maximize their prime of life have available to them a great variety of nutrients and compounds essential to facilitating and improving digestion, muscle growth, cardiovascular health, sex drive, and overall well-being. Indeed, the number of restorative herbs, extracts, and compounds seems to grow each day, as modern science unveils the anti-aging properties of supplements from acai and coral calcium to resveratrol and omega fatty acids.

Anti-Catabolics
When your workout is over and your muscles are screaming for fuel to repair the damage you’ve done, quick and targeted nutrition is a must. Without it, your muscles will simply feed on themselves and all of your potential gains will have been lost. To undo the damage and grow, you need BCAAs and glutamine to repair muscle tissue, carbs to restore depleted glycogen levels, and fast-action aminos (including whey isolate, and hydrolyzed whey) to jump start anabolism. Stop catabolic processes in their tracks with proper supplementation and you’ll derive maximum benefit from every workout.

Fortunately, there’s no shortage of supplements out there designed to ensure that you gain the ultimate benefit from every trip to the gym. In this category, you’ll find a huge variety of products addressing every aspect of performance enhancement from pre-workout pump complexes and energy boosters to creatine products and thermogenics. Hit the floor with energy and stamina to spare!

Mass and Strength Builders
For bodybuilders looking to add serious size to their frame—in the form of lean muscle, of course, while minimizing fat gains—or any athlete looking to bulk up muscle mass, the popular solution is Mass Building supplements. These products are specifically formulated to help you pack on pounds of lean mass, which is why the mass-building category is one of the most crowded and fiercely competitive of all in today’s sports supplement marketplace.
When you think mass building, you probably think of creatine, a natural derivate of an amino acid produced in the body that supplies energy to muscles. Supplementing with creatine products—such as MHP’s Dark Matter, BioQuest’s MyoZene or ProSource’s SynthaTrex Xtreme—helps you train harder before fatigue sets in while also hydrating muscle cells. Aside from creatine, mass-building products often contain additional branched chain amino acids (BCAAs), such as glutamine, beta alanine, taurine, tyrosine, tryptophan and leucine. Formulas for various fitness goals exist, including sugar-free to help keep your carb intake low or the inclusion of protein, carbohydrates, fat and electrolytes to make up an all-in-one powerhouse product.
If your pursuit for more muscle seems never-ending, this mass-building supplement category is the answer you’ve been looking for.

Mood Enhancers
It’s been said that the bodybuilder’s most important body part is his brain. Clearly, mood is central to your workout performance, muscle recovery, and rest. Looking to power your way through an ultraproductive workout? You would surely benefit from caffeine or a potent focus intensifier like tyrosine. Looking to maintain your overall vigor and aggressiveness? Look no further than Tribulus terrestris or other T-boosters. When it’s time to mellow out and get the sufficient rest your body needs, melatonin could be just the thing. To achieve bodybuilding results, put yourself in the right frame of mind!

Post-Workout / Muscle Recovery
After a grueling workout, all you want to do is rest. But there’s one more crucial step you need to take to ensure your hard work pays off: nourishing your body with Post-Workout supplements. Why? When you workout, you deplete your muscle glycogen, the primary fuel your muscles use for energy production. After your workout, your hungry muscles are primed to absorb whatever nutrients you send their way—preferably high-glycemic carbohydrates to promote glycogen replenishment, a fast-acting protein to enhance nitrogen balance and amino acids to enhance recovery—which is why the quality of your post-workout supplements is so important.
To help your body through recovery mode after intense training, and to turn your body from a catabolic (muscle breakdown) state into an anabolic (muscle growth) state, try products such as BioQuest’s MyoZene, MHP’s Dark Matter and ProSource’s After-Mass. Aside from the carbs, protein and amino acids (such as glutamine, taurine, arginine, glycine and alpha lipoic acid) mentioned above, some products in this category also contain creatine monohydrate, B vitamins and even botanicals.
Help your muscles rebuild at the exact time they are most receptive to receiving nutrients, by following each session at the gym with a post-workout/recovery product.

Multi-Vitamins & Minerals
For the average Joe, a multivitamin helps bridge the gap in the vitamins and minerals missing at mealtime. But for bodybuilders, a multivitamin can also help bridge the gap to their fitness goals. That’s because their hardworking bodies need even more nutrients than the average, sedentary Joe. Why? Vitamins and minerals are the nutrient precursors necessary for the proteins, healthy fats, herbal compounds and other nutrients found in many of the other supplements you take. But we’re not talking about the Flintstones vitamins you grew up on—we’re talking about specifically designed blends of key vitamins, minerals and even antioxidants for hard-training athletes.
At first glance, it may appear that all multivitamins are created equal … chockfull of, well, a multitude of vitamins. But upon closer inspection, you’ll see the differences in types, amounts and delivery systems. Some of the frontrunners in this category include Universal’s Animal Pack, which has been on the market since 1984, ProSource’s Super MegaMax and MHP’s Activite Sport. Key differentiators include such ingredients as amino acids, antioxidants, such as lycopene and CoQ10, methionine-bound zinc, and botanicals, such as Ginkgo biloba, Echinacea, bilberry and horny goat weed.
Ensure your body is receiving the full spectrum of nutrients it needs—from vitamins A to K and beyond—with a daily powerhouse multivitamin.
