| Not just for "pre-training": To limit yourself to pre-training ingestion is to limit your performance. UP-LIFT is intended for ingestion prior to AND during exercise. It is the informed opinion of BI's product development scientists that the best way to produce "sustained action" is to take another serving when you need it. The flexibility to do this was built into the UP-LIFT formula from the very first ingredient. No more "rocking out" for the first 30 minutes of your workout only to find yourself "clocking out" during the second half. From workout beginning to end UP-LIFT fades out the distractions in the background, focuses you on the mission in the foreground, energizes your blood and dials up your intensity.* For cardio AND weights: As a hybrid training formula, UP-LIFT is designed to sustain high-intensity training performance during both resistance AND cardio exercise.* As above, this flexibility was built into the formula from the beginning, and in response to reports from users of existing products. With its unique hybrid functionality, UP-LIFT is ideal for athletes who do their cardio before or after weights, or during a separate workout altogether. Totally Stimulant-Free: "What goes up must come down." It never fails. Stimulants create the illusion of above-average energy acutely. A little while later, however, you feel like you have below-average energy. This may explain why some stimulant-containing products hit you all at once at the front end of your workout, only to leave you sitting on the curb in the final half. The UP-LIFT training formula is totally free of caffeine and other stimulants. That means no more sitting on the curb. Glucose Economy "Friendly": Glucose is your body's most important fuel. If your body's supply of glucose (termed the "glucose economy") falls, so too will your performance. BI's lab added gluconeogenic amino acids to UP-LIFT to support your glucose economy.* These amino acids are capable of supporting blood glucose levels and performance throughout your workout without negatively affecting insulin levels or fat-burning.* In fact, gluconeogenesis supports the burning of fat and thermogenesis.* Whether you're a bodybuilder, a powerlifter, or any other type of athlete, UP-LIFT helps you unfold 90 seconds of muscle-building fury out of every 60 seconds of training.

UP-LIFT Frequently Asked Questions 1. What is UP-LIFT? UP-LIFT is a stimulant-free and creatine-free powdered drink mix that is intended to be mixed with water and consumed before and during training in order to sustain higher levels of mental and muscular output (performance) during resistance and cardiovascular forms of exercise.* 2. Can anyone use UP-LIFT? UP-LIFT is intended for use by healthy, exercising individuals 18-55 years of age. Bodybuilders, mixed martial artists, powerlifters and other athletes who regularly engage in high-intensity resistance and/or cardiovascular exercise of any kind can benefit from consuming UP-LIFT immediately before and during their workouts. 3. What makes UP-LIFT different from "pre-training" formulas? a. UP-LIFT is a hybrid training formula. The term "hybrid" refers to two features: i. The UP-LIFT formula was designed for consumption immediately before and during training for greater mental and muscular output.* "Pre-training" formulas are consumed only before training. ii. The UP-LIFT formula was designed to satisfy the needs of both resistance and cardiovascular forms of exercise.* Each form of exercise creates different metabolic and nutritional demands. b. UP-LIFT is stimulant-free and creatine-free. Most pre-training formulas contain both. i. Creatine-free: This means that UP-LIFT will not produce water retention.* Quite the contrary, with ingredients like arginine-AKG and citrulline (which increases arginine levels), UP-LIFT reduces water retention and thereby produces harder and sharper looking muscles.* Studies performed in the 1990s suggest that arginine supplementation "flushes" out excess sodium and water when combined with a high-protein diet. ii. Stimulant-free: Being entirely free of stimulants (i.e. no caffeine or other stimulants), UP-LIFT promotes sustainable energy and mood without the "collapse".* The term "collapse" refers to the substantial decrease of mood and energy levels that may occur several hours following the use of stimulant-containing formulas. c. Beverly lists the actual amount of every ingredient found in the UP-LIFT formula on the product label. The majority of pre-training formulas and many other products hide this information behind "proprietary blends" for which the amount of each ingredient is not disclosed. Often only one or two ingredients in these "blends" will be present in useful quantities. The other ingredients in the blend are added in extremely small, physiological insignificant amounts just so that they can be listed on the label. Most supplement companies are not willing to incur the costs involved in producing a product like UP-LIFT with the same amounts of the same high-quality of ingredients. 4. When can I expect to see results while using UP-LIFT? You may feel UP-LIFT working in as little as 15 minutes of consumption and throughout your entire workout when used as directed. During your workout you can expect to see and feel results that include but are not limited to: Greater mental clarity and focus: You'll be more in tune with your muscles as they contract.* Greater energy and motivation: You'll be excited to train...and train.* Faster and harder pumps: Pumps build muscle. ("The bigger the pumps, the bigger the lumps.")* Greater strength endurance: Supports lifting heavier weights for more sets without tiring as easily.* 5. If I don't perform resistance exercise, can I still benefit from using UP-LIFT? As stated above, unlike "pre-training" formulas and many other products, UP-LIFT is a hybrid formula designed to improve mental and muscular output during resistance as well as cardiovascular exercise.* For instance, UP-LIFT contains gluconeogenic (glucose-generating) amino acids such as alanine and glycine. These were specifically chosen for their ability to support blood glucose and energy levels.* Glucose is a major source of energy for muscle tissue during exercise, particularly high-intensity exercise. 6. What are the benefits of using UP-LIFT over the long-term? UP-LIFT contains ingredients that scientific studies suggest may support and enhance:
Lean Mass Gains and Positive Nitrogen Balance* Elevated Fat-Burning Metabolism* Nitric Oxide (NO) Action* Vasodilation* Detoxification of Ammonia* Gluconeogenesis and Thermogenesis* Blood Glucose Levels* Aerobic and Anaerobic Energy Metabolism* Muscle Carnosine Levels* Reduction or Delay of Neuromuscular Fatigue* Muscular Power and Endurance* Antioxidant Support* Mental Well-Being and Vigilance* Resistance to Stress* 7. Is UP-LIFT safe for people with medical conditions? UP-LIFT was tested only on healthy exercise individuals during its testing and formulation stages. Discuss UP-LIFT with your medical doctor before using if you have a medical condition or if you are currently unaware of your health status. 8. Is UP-LIFT safe if you are trying to become pregnant, or are currently pregnant or nursing? Discuss UP-LIFT with your medical doctor before using if you are trying to become pregnant, or are currently pregnant or nursing. 9. Can UP-LIFT be used during preparation for a bodybuilding competition? Yes. As indicated above, UP-LIFT contains ingredients that help flush out excess sodium and water, thereby increasing muscle hardness and definition.* Retention of sodium and water is arguably the most difficult problem facing the bodybuilder as he or she prepares for physique competition. Water retention can lead to a loss of muscle definition. In addition, because UP-LIFT contains gluconeogenic acids, it supports gluconeogenesis.* This process is fueled by the burning of fat. 10. Can I combine UP-LIFT with other BI products? Yes. The UP-LIFT formula was designed to be complementary to every other Beverly product. For instance, some consumers may want to supplement their diet with creatine or use stimulants. Because UP-LIFT is stimulant-free and creatine-free, it can be combined with BI products containing these ingredients. 11. I need to lose body fat. Should I avoid using UP-LIFT? As stated above, UP-LIFT contains ingredients that help reduce sodium and water retention as well as body fat.* (Note that retention of sodium and water can make you appear fatter than you are, despite no change in body fat mass.) Also, by increasing your training performance, UP-LIFT promotes increases in muscle mass.* Even if your body fat mass remains constant, by increasing your muscle mass you will appear leaner.* All things considered, if you want to lose body fat faster, then you should consider adding UP-LIFT to your daily diet.* 12. Can I prepare UP-LIFT and store it in the fridge for later? Yes. It has been estimated that UP-LIFT will retain its full potency for up to 6 hours when mixed with cold water and refrigerated immediately. That being said, it is advised that you prepare a fresh serving for each training session for optimal results. 13. Where is UP-LIFT made? UP-LIFT was formulated and tested by BI's product development scientists at the Beverly head office in Cold Spring, Kentucky. Each ingredient has been selected based on studies published in publicly-accessible databases such as those made available by the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI).
