Exposed: The Secret Extreme Technique Used by Bodybuilding's Super Freaks to Trigger Blood Engorging, Vein Popping Muscle Pumps and Force Muscle Growth! DARK RAGE introduces a new pump inducing technology that goes far beyond nitric oxide. Compounds called Erythropoietin Stimulating Agents (ESAs) are being used by bodybuilding's elite to induce muscle pumps and muscle growth far beyond nitric oxide or anything else ever used. These controversial ESAs have been a closely guarded secret of the bodybuilding underground because they really cross the line and push physiological limits to the edge. DARK RAGE is an ESA that blows the cover on this closely guarded secret. Bodybuilders everywhere are reporting the most amazing pumps and gains in rock hard muscle ever. What makes DARK RAGE's pump so immense is its ability to stimulate the release of a powerful hormone, erythropoietin (EPO), which increases red blood cell production and blood volume. The truth is that a pump is the result of delivering more blood to muscle tissue, so while the use of Nitric Oxide stimulating ingredients like AAKG and Arginine are somewhat effective by causing vasodilation, they do NOT increase blood volume. DARK Rage's dual EPO-NO action causes what scientists call "hemodynamic blood plasma vasodilation". What this means is a larger supply of EPO induced blood is simultaneously being transported through nitric oxide induced vasodilated veins and capillaries to muscle tissue. This increased blood supply not only increases the size and effects of the muscle pump, but it also has a profound anabolic muscle building effect as it engorges your muscle tissue with DARK RAGE's other active ingredients like creatine, beta-alanine, BCAAs, AAKG, Arginine and many more. Furthermore, increased blood supply also means increased oxygen supply, so it will enhance muscle performance and delay muscle fatigue. The Bottom Line is Nitric Oxide Isn't Enough... To Build More Muscle and Better Pumps, You Need to Build More Blood with Dark Rage's EPO Technology!! EPO's Effects on Muscle Growth EPO receptors are found in skeletal muscle, activation of the EPO receptor in muscle stimulates the activator of a protein called STAT5; STAT5 also activates the PI3 kinase-Akt signaling pathway, which is believed to result in activation of AKT and p70s6K, which in turn plays a role in protein synthesis. This pathway has been suggested to be critical in regulation of skeletal muscle hypertrophy. On the basis of the above findings it appears plausible that EPO receptor activation may contribute in regulating skeletal muscle fiber growth.

If you're looking to take your workouts and muscle gains to a new level you will welcome DARK RAGE as your new pre-workout formula. EPODROLï: EPO PLASMA RED BLOOD CELL STIMULATOR- a patent pending compound of clinically researched EPO co-factors designed to trigger the powerful hormone Erythropoietin to increase the production of red blood cells and increase plasma blood volume for far greater muscle pumps and vascularity. This increased blood volume in turn increases oxygen transport and the delivery of anabolic hormones and nutrients to muscle tissue, which has an immediate impact on muscle pumps, performance and stimulating muscle growth. EPODROL features EPO and red blood cell producing ingredients such as, Arachidonic Acid, Echinacea, Cobalt, Albumin, Iron and a matrix of essential vitamin and mineral blood building cofactors. Albumin: An abundant blood protein. Albumins are important in regulating blood volume by maintaining the osmotic pressure of the blood compartment, which is involved in producing the "pump". Albumins also function as carriers of molecules of low water solubility, including lipid soluble hormones such as testosterone. Arachidonic Acid: The EPO production stimulating effects of Arachidonic Acid are attributed to its involvement in the biochemical process leading to the actual production of EPO in the body. Arachidonic Acid is involved in many structural and biochemical functions. With respect to EPO production, Arachidonic Acid is the precursor molecule in the production of eicosanoids, which stimulates production of EPO. Additionally, research has reported anabolic muscle building effects of Arachidonic Acid. Cobalt: Cobalt is another key research based EPO/red blood cells production stimulator, which is needed by humans in small amounts. It is also a necessary component of vitamin B12. In the research report titled "Blood Doping by Cobalt", researchers reported that cobalt is a naturally occurring element that enhances erythopoiesis and angiogenesis (growth of new blood vessels), resulting in increasing red blood cell concentration and circulation. The proposed mechanisms of action include more efficient transcription of the erythropoietin gene. Echinacea: Echinacea stimulates production of erythroid (red blood cell) growth factors, induces erythropoiesis, and increases the oxygen-transport capacity of the blood, in addition to its role in beneficially stimulating the immune system. The blood building and improved oxygen carrying capacity effects of taking standardized Echinacea supplements was reported in a recent study using male subjects. This research, along with other research studies suggest that use of Echinacea containing supplements increased EPO, interleukin-3 (IL-3), red blood cell count, increased the number and size of red blood cells and increased maximal oxygen consumption VO2max. Iron: Iron is a part of all cells and has many functions in our bodies. Related to the bloodstream, iron (as part of the protein hemoglobin) carries oxygen from our lungs to the tissues throughout our bodies. Having too little hemoglobin is called anemia. Iron also helps our muscles store and use oxygen. Also, iron is a part of many enzymes and is used in many cell functions. Enzymes help our bodies digest foods and also help with many other important reactions that occur within our bodies. Nattokinase: A naturally produced enzyme that exhibits fibrinolytic activity, which helps promotes good blood flow. A primary mode of action is through the ability of nattokinase to dissolve the tiny fibrin fibers that can hold blood cells together. This fibrinolytic activity helps to support healthy blood flow by keeping red blood cells from clotting together, thereby allowing red blood cells to carry more oxygen to the exercising muscles and clear away carbon dioxide metabolic waste product. Portulaca oleracea: Contains high concentrations flavones that may improve the expression level of EPO and accelerate the generation of erythrocytes and hemoglobin. 2 Lbs.
