Muscle Builders
T-BOLL
Lifting the unliftable. This is androbolic pull: Attracting the things you want. Drawing you closer to your goals. Igniting a towering androgen inferno inside of you with testosterone on top. A metabolism more intensely anabolic than any muscle-building challenge could possibly require. Catalyzing serial physique transformations from big to bigger to massive to surreal.
From ThermoLife, the industry source of high end body-building supplements, comes T-BOL™, a boldly aggressive testosterone up-regulating formula which elevates and sustains endogenous production of testosterone and related androgens.* Luxuriously pure and concentrated, it handles even the most brutal training regimes.* Ideal for hardgainers and overtrainers. Driven by eight active nutrients (ingredients) including Tribulus alatus (patent pending testosterone up-regulator), resveratrol (cardio supportive anti-estrogen) and Urtica dioica (increases free testosterone).* Thousands of satisfied customers and industry insiders around the world know T-BOL™ represents high end endogenous testosterone up-regulating formulas.* Get T-BOL™ today and give yourself the "androbolic pull" you need to help build your best body ever.*
T- BOL™ the exciting new natural testosterone support and sexual health support has finally arrived.*
T-BOL Testosterone Enhancement Formula is our most comprehensive and powerful natural testosterone boosting formula.* T-BOL works synergistically with your body's own endocrine system to naturally increase testosterone levels.*
T-BOL works by promoting testosterone production centers of your endocrine system to produce more testosterone.* In other words, T-BOL turns on the switch that tells your body to make testosterone and keeps it on!* In addition T-BOL also enables your body to use the extra testosterone more efficiently by freeing bound testosterone and increasing receptor sensitivity.* T-BOL will restore and BOOST your body's own testosterone production.* As long as you supplement with T-BOL your body will pump out more testosterone into your blood stream where it can help to promote fat loss, fuel intense workouts, grow new muscle, and gain strength.* Continue reading on the following pages for ingredients and complete reference information.
*All ingredients present in pharmacologically significant amounts for optimal effects.* A Trademark distinction of ThermoLife formulas.
Here are the ingredients we used and why:
Alatusterone™ (Tribulus Alatus)
Tribulus Terrestris was used successfully for years in many successful test-boosting products such as Tribosten and ThermoLife was proud to be the first company to isolate the active protodioscin from Tribulus Terrestris and develop a standard for it.* However progress moves on and better compounds are always found. So we are proud to introduce to the world the successor of Tribulus Terrestris, Tribulus Alatus, exclusive and patent pending to ThermoLife International. A plant with many beneficial properties, such as hypoglycemic and hypolipidemic(1) , Tribulus Alatus is not only rich in Saponins found also in Tribulus Terrestris but also contains six novel steroidal saponins which S.A.R. research suggests them to be much, much more potent than those found in Tribulus Terrestris(2).*
Testafolia™ (Eurycoma Longifolia)
Eurycoma Longifolia is the scientific name of the Malaysian plant Tongkat Ali, also known as Longjack. In Malaysia it is identified as a symbol of a man's ego and strength, as it is used to support sexual health (7).* According to his published research studies based on human subjects (43,44,45), Tongkat Ali increased testosterone production in vitro and increased energy and feeling of well being, inhibited SHBG, increased ATP production in muscles and increased lean muscle mass.* Despite its outstanding sexual support properties, until now Eurycoma has never made it as a great ingredient in test boosters.* That was due to mainly two factors: First, the amount of actives present in all of today's Longjack containing supplements are severely under dosed most of the cheap extracts used are not standardized for the actual actives but standardized for cytotoxic compounds like eurycomanones. ThermoLife uses extract made by prime researchers on Longjack, standardized for concentration of the actual actives with minimum concentration on cytotoxic compounds.
Testveratrol™ (Resveratrol)
Resveratrol (3,5,4'-trihydroxystilbene) is a phytoalexin mainly found in red wine. One great property of this wonderful compound, which has never been put to use up until now is its ability to support sexual health, and strength (when administered in high enough amounts).* Overall resveratrol was able to not only increase testosterone.* The suggested mechanisms of action are its antiestrogenic effects, as resveratrol is an aromatase inhibitor and also has the capability to antagonistically bind to estrogen receptors.* It also has strong antioxidant activities which can counter oxidant stress.* Another beneficial action it has is anti-aromatase action both on enzyme and m-RNA levels (32).*
Divanabol™ (Urtica Dioica)
Urtica dioica, commonly known as stinging nettle, is a plant that grows aplenty in many Mediterranean countries like Greece and Turkey. It has a long history of use in traditional medicine, as well as being used for food. Of interest to bodybuilders is the capacity of certain Urtica Dioica lignans to bind with human sex hormone binding globulin (SHBG) (40,41,42).* This effect results in the release of testosterone from SHBG, which makes it much more available for interaction with cells in order for it to exert its beneficial effects.*
Forskobolin™ (Forskolin)
Forskolin is a labdane diterpene that is produced by the Indian Coleus plant (Plectranthus barbatus). Forskolin has a favorable effect on enhancing serum testosterone levels through it's potential influence on cAMP.* Because LH exerts its effects on Leydig cells of the testicles (promoting production of testosterone) through cAMP, an increase in testosterone levels using this compound is exhibited as well(43,44).* In fact Forskolin is commonly used in studies to promote testosterone production from Leydig cells (45,46).?* Apart from this Forskolin exhibits a beneficial effect on reducing fat levels while increasing lean muscle mass.*
BZATD™ (Zinc Amino Acid Chelate)
Zinc was added to the matrix because it's a mineral that is necessary for the body to create testosterone.*
Lectosorb™ (Lethichin)
All steroidal compounds, like the steroidal saponins found in T Alatus need to be dissoluted in bile to be absorbed by the intestines. The presence of even small amounts of lecithin can increase the dissolution rates up to tenfold (47).*
ResoProtect™ (Bioperine)
Bioperine is a patented piperine extract. Piperine has the capability of blocking glucuronidation(48), a main metabolic pathway that both lowers intestinal absorption and increases excretion, thus lowering the efficacy of many compounds present in T-BOL.*
In Conclusion
T-BOL is specifically made to hit all possible aspects of androgen-support, using what we consider to be the absolute best, top quality ingredients in effective doses.* We left out what we considered to be ineffective, unneeded, or not worth the price.
To sum everything up so far, the compounds in T-BOL offer benefits such as:
