See the NEW! 2010 First Endurance Optygen HP (formerly referred to and tested as a
Prototype version). We no longer carry the older version.
First Endurance continues to lead the endurance nutrition category by introducing OptygenHP, the next-generation of Optygen. This revolutionary formula is the result of human clinical trials and the latest scientific research on increasing endurance and performance. New features include Beta-Alanine as well the most potent Rhodiola available. The two main adaptogens in OptygenHP were first used by Tibetan Sherpas to help them climb Mt. Everest. Optygen and Optygen HP utilize these two unique adaptogens because clinical research on elite endurance athletes has shown them to:
Increase oxygen utilization (1)
Increase the body's ability to adapt to high levels of physical stress (1)
Increase aerobic threshold and reduce lactic acid (2)
Read our Official Review of the 2009 First Endurance Optygen HP Prototype
Next-Generation Optygen Formula. Contains
Beta-Alanine which increases muscular endurance, boosts strength, improves exercise capacity and delays muscular fatigue. . The new
Optygen HP formula also contains 5% rosavins. The original
Optygen formula contains 3% rosavins.
Each serving of OPTYGEN HP provides 1,000mg Beta-Alanine per serving. Beta-Alanine is supported by wealth of cutting-edge human clinical research showing it increases muscular endurance, boosts strength, improves exercise capacity (so you can exercise longer) and delays muscular fatique. The mechanism behind Beta-Alanine works syn-ergistically with the adaptogens, chelated chromium and ATPro in OPTYGENHP, to help endurance athletes maxi-mize performance.
The Most Potent Rhodiola Available
Additionally, First Endurance has sourced the most potent Rhodiola available. The new OPTYGENHP formula contains 5% rosavin and contains 67% more actives than the Rhodiola that's in the original Optygen formula. Clinical studies on elite endurance athletes have shown that it is the rosavins in Rhodiola that play a critical role in allowing the body to adapt to high levels of physical stress.

DIRECTIONS: Take four (4) Capsules Daily with a meal.
For best results, use Optygen HP during all intense training. These improvements will help you to race at a higher level. For best results, Optygen sould be used consistantly for many months. If you start taking Optygen a week before a race, benefits will be minimal.

This is a great product and I recommend to anyone looking at endurance supplements. ProLine Sports Nutrition was also very accomodating as I requested overnight shipping with special instructions. Thanks again!
