Legion Recharge Ingredients (8 grams per serving)

Micronized Creatine Monohydrate (5 grams per serving)

Creatine is a compound made up of the amino acids L-arginine, glycine, and methionine. Our body can produce creatine naturally, but it can also absorb and store creatine found in various foods like meat, eggs, and fish.

Creatine monohydrate is creatine with one molecule of water attached to it. This form of creatine has been around (and studied) for decades and is a tried-and-true winner, whereas other forms have failed to produce better results.

The creatine monohydrate in Recharge has also been micronized, which is a process that produces very fine particles that are more water soluble and easier to digest. Thus, micronized creatine monohydrate mixes better with liquid than the non-micronized form and is less likely to upset sensitive stomachs.

Research shows that supplementation with creatine monohydrate . . .

  • Boosts muscle and strength gain[8][9][10][11]
  • Improves anaerobic endurance[12][13][14][15][16][17]
  • Reduces muscle damage and soreness from exercise[18][19]
  • Increases the amount of glycogen your muscles can store[20]
  • Helps preserve lean mass and strength while restricting calories[21]

And in case you’re worried that creatine is bad for your kidneys, these claims have been horribly overblown.[22][23] Creatine supplementation isn’t advised in cases of kidney disease treated by diuretics, but in healthy people, both short- and long-term usage of creatine has no harmful side effects.[24][25][26]

The clinically effective dose of creatine monohydrate is 3 to 5 grams.

myHMB® β-Hydroxy β-Methylbutyrate (2.5 grams per serving)

β-Hydroxy β-Methylbutyrate (HMB) is a compound produced when the body breaks down leucine, an amino acid that stimulates protein synthesis.[28]

myHMB® is a patented form of HMB and one of the most clinically proven forms on the market, with over 150 peer-reviewed studies supporting its safety and efficacy.

HMB reduces protein breakdown, strengthens muscle cell membranes, and activates muscle-building molecules like mTOR and IGF-1.[29][30]

Research shows that supplementation with myHMB® . . .

The clinically effective dose of HMB is between 2,000 and 3,000 milligrams.

Alpha-GPC (300 milligrams per serving)VitaCherry® Sport Tart Cherry Powder (500 milligrams per serving)

Tart cherry powder is a powdered fruit extract made from sour cherries, which are naturally rich in anthocyanins—the pigments that give the fruit its deep red color.

VitaCherry® Sport is a standardized extract made from whole U.S.-grown Montmorency tart cherries. Compared to typical tart cherry powders made from skins, it’s about 15 times more concentrated in anthocyanins.

These anthocyanins help limit the production of compounds like prostaglandins that contribute to muscle soreness after exercise, supporting faster recovery from hard training.

Research shows that supplementation with tart cherry extract . . .

  • Helps reduce exercise-induced muscle damage[43][44][45]
  • Helps reduce post-exercise muscle soreness[46][47]
  • Supports recovery of strength and power after exercise[48][49]

While researchers are still working to establish a clinically effective dose of tart cherry extract, most studies showing a benefit use between 400 mg and 500 mg per day.

Naturally Sweetened and Flavored

While artificial sweeteners may not be as dangerous as some people claim, studies suggest that regular consumption of these chemicals may indeed be harmful to our health.[50][51][52][53][54][55]

That’s why we use natural sweeteners like stevia, erythritol, and monk fruit instead. Research shows that these ingredients are not only safe but can also confer several health benefits, including better nutrient absorption, healthy cholesterol and inflammation levels, and more.[56][57][58][59]

No Artificial Food Dyes, Fillers, or Other Unnecessary Junk

As with artificial sweeteners, studies show that artificial food dyes and fillers can cause negative effects in some people, including gastrointestinal toxicity and behavioral disorders.[60][61][62][63][64]

That’s why we use natural coloring and flavoring derived from fruits and other foods as well as naturally derived ingredients for improving texture, enhancing shelf life, and facilitating the manufacturing process.

            Frequently Asked Questions

            How do I use Recharge?

            Mix 1 serving with 10–12 ounces of water and take it after your workout with a meal.

            On rest days, take it with your largest meal of the day.

            For best results, take Recharge daily.

            How much of a difference will creatine make in my training?

            Creatine is one of the most effective supplements for improving strength, performance, and recovery.

            Within about a week, most people notice increased strength and power, better anaerobic endurance, and less soreness after training.

            Muscle gain happens more gradually. Over time, the extra strength and improved recovery allow you to train harder and more consistently, which leads to greater muscle growth.

            Will I lose my gains when I stop taking creatine?

            No.

            Research shows that whatever muscle you gain while taking creatine, you keep when you stop taking it. [1]

            http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/15263100

            Is creatine a steroid?

            Absolutely not.

            Creatine is made up of three amino acids (L-arginine, L-glycine, and L-methionine), bears no resemblance to steroids, and works completely differently in the body.

            Is creatine safe?

            Yes.

            Creatine is one of the most thoroughly researched molecules in all of sports supplementation, and studies show there are no adverse effects in healthy adults.[1][2]

            Is Recharge for men and women?

            Absolutely! Creatine helps both genders equally.

            Many women shy away from creatine because they fear getting “bulky” or are afraid of water retention and bloating. Well, weightlifting and creatine don’t make women bulky, and bloating from creatine is basically a non-issue these days thanks to modern processing methods.

            Does creatine make you bloated?

            Not usually.

            Older forms of creatine sometimes caused bloating, but modern micronized creatine (like in Recharge) mixes better and is less likely to cause digestive issues.

            Do I need to cycle creatine?

            No.

            Creatine isn’t a steroid and doesn’t impact your endocrine system. Thus, it doesn’t need to be cycled.

            In fact, cycling creatine would be counter-productive as each time you stopped taking it for an extended period of time and then resumed use, you would have to wait for it to accumulate in your muscles before you would feel it working again.

            Do I need to “load” creatine?

            You don’t have to load creatine if you’re just starting with supplementation, but it does cause the creatine to accumulate faster in the muscles and thus the benefits to “kick in” faster.

            The standard loading protocol found in the scientific literature is 20 grams per day for 5 to 7 days, followed by a maintenance dosage of 5 grams per day.[1]

            In the case of Recharge, that would be 4 servings per day for the first 5 to 7 days followed by 1 serving per day.

            Should I use creatine when I’m dieting for fat loss or only when I’m dieting for muscle growth?

            We recommend that you take creatine both when cutting and bulking.

            Supplementing with creatine while in a calorie deficit is smart because it helps you retain your muscle and strength, which is vital for improving your overall body composition.[1]

            Which form of creatine is the best?

            Creatine monohydrate.

            It’s the most researched, most effective, and most reliable form of creatine available. Other forms are more expensive but haven’t been shown to work better.

            Recharge seems a bit expensive for a creatine product. What gives?

            Recharge would absolutely be overpriced if it were only creatine monohydrate.

            It contains two other ingredients that make it much more than a simple creatine formulation, however. It’s a post-workout recovery supplement.

            It also contains:

            • myHMB®, which helps reduce muscle breakdown and damage
            • VitaCherry® Sport, which supports recovery and reduces soreness

            Together, these ingredients make Recharge a complete post-workout recovery formula—not just a creatine supplement.

            What does “clinically effective dosages” mean, anyway? Isn’t it just marketing lingo?

            When we set out to determine dosages of ingredients, we turn to the scientific literature.

            Specifically, we review every well-designed, well-executed, peer-reviewed study we can find on the molecule and find the dosage that confers the maximum benefits with the minimum side effects.

            These dosages are known as “clinically effective dosages” because they are backed by scientific studies that demonstrated they produce the desired effects.

            Should I take Recharge every day?

            Yes.

            For best results, you want to take creatine everyday, including your rest days.

            Recharge is too sweet/strong tasting for me. What should I do?

            If you increase the amount of water you’re using, you should find an amount that works for you.

            (Most people like 8 to 10 ounces.)

            Also, we have tweaked Recharge's flavor profile several times since releasing it based on customer feedback, so please do let us know if you don’t like it.

            It helps us improve!

            Is Recharge gluten-free?

            Yes.

            Is Recharge vegetarian friendly?

            Yes.

            Is Recharge vegan friendly?

            Yes.

            Does creatine cause cramping?What does the Prop65 warning on the labels mean?

            Our products include a Proposition 65 warning in compliance with California’s regulatory guidelines, which are among the most stringent and sweeping in the world.

            A Proposition 65 warning does not indicate whether a product is safe or unsafe. Rather, Proposition 65 is a consumer notification law in California that requires warnings to inform consumers about the presence of one or more of over 900 substances in various types of products. These substances include naturally occurring and ubiquitous compounds, even when present at levels below those known to cause harm.
