Love your videos and following your journey, but this pitch is a bit extreme. A lot of teens look up to you and selling a “get fast quick” product is a bit cringe. I get that you need the sponsors but I think you know this fitness and lactate responses are a result of years of consistent aerobic training. You can pitch a product without over-exaggeration, but that is my 2-cents. Best of luck this season.
I appreciate this comment and the attention it seems to be getting. I was skeptical about this product as well and nervous about the negative feedback I might get from promoting it. Once I tried it though, these fears immediately were gone. I truly saw a difference in my training and especially my ability to recover. I believe those are things that are super important to many of my subscribers so I want to share this product with them. I understand it doesn’t replace hard training and years of consistency but research and my own experience does support its effectiveness. Thank you for supporting the journey and hopefully I can be a little less cringey in the future. (no promises lol)
@@TheAthleteSpecial I think what’s so awkward about this is you’re not forthcoming with how this is a commercial. You only in an indirect way say that you are indeed part of the marketing effort for this product. Would be much better if you just tell people straight up that this is a sponsorship. The cringe was in the part where you were like “no I swear guys it’s THAT good”
@@codyr2318 did you not listen to what he said in the beginning? Did you miss the banner that said includes paid promotion at the top left? Pay attention before commenting some broke boy nonsense
Sorry but that's some real dodgy stuff. 60 quid for a month supply? Cmon... They don't even say how much of every ingredient is in it. Also the ingredients themselves aren't anything spectacular You'd be better off investing that money in some good fruits and you'll get the same and even some enjoyment out of it. For like 10 or 20 quid you'll get enough Magnesium for probably a year. So that's a BIG YIKES from me
80$ for ✔ Calcium Carbonate - Strengthens muscle, bone and heart function . ✔ Papain - Anti-inflammatory that reduces muscle soreness after exercise. ✔ Magnesium - Improves muscle function & may boost athletic performance. ✔ Black Pepper Fruit - Powerful antioxidant that enriches nutrient absorption . ✔ Selenium, Chromium & Potassium - Vital minerals for growth & recovery. hard pass
For those out there as well as for Spencer, allow me to give nuance to this product, as well as stuff like it, like Creatine. It does work. You will 100% feel more recovered and be able to endure more through these products. As a coach and someone who researches quite a lot, there is something we all should keep in mind. Just because your muscles recover quicker, doesn't mean you are not less prone to injury. If you increase your normal load or hit intervals at faster paces while using these, you could be susceptible to getting injured. Use these products and also dont adjust your training too much. That's my best advice.
Running preparation has changed a lot over the years. My only competitive years were 1980-84. No vitamins or supplements, worn out shoes, and Gatorade/Sunny-D/Kool-Aid. I guess Running Times, Runner’s World, and The Runner magazines were our Internet. We still ran pretty fast. But it was a different era. Still appreciate the new generation of runners. They are running damn fast.
I looked at this products ingredient profile all the ingredients are highly researched ingredients only problem they aren’t transparent with the dosage between each ingredient but clearly you feel the difference so there must be something right. I think the message here is you don’t really need it if you are the average runner a good diet will suffice along with a good electrolyte drinks/chews for workouts but if you are a high level athlete you may find it beneficial.
Spencer’s videos are great and I love following his journey. I think what he really wanted to say that this product worked for him y’all can try it if y’all want here’s a code to save some money. I mean he is a semi pro athlete trying to make companies want to support people trying to get there
For anyone wondering, I’ve been taking this product since the beginning of track season as well, I have nothing but good things to say about it,ong .obviously it doesn’t replace years of work but believe me when I say this product actually works.my workouts have felt a lot better lactation wise and overal I feel like it’s helped me push a lot harder during training and races,obviously without it I can still do the same but I feel like I have an advantage when taking it……
I don’t get how any of the ingredients (at those recommended dosages) do much… The carbonates in it would suggest that thats buffering the H+. (Similar to sodium bicarbonate) but the dosage is way to low to be effective. The boys know the ups and downs of bicarbonate loading 😉 I assume the magnesium oxide and the other ingredients are either increasing the NO in your blood or inhibiting the enzymes that break it down. (Which would cause Vasodilation) increasing blood flow and such. Which would be noticeable. However beet root juice would be cheaper and probably more effective ? The value proposition isn’t there for me. But hey Spencer, awesome work. Congrats on the sponsorship!
lol the first thing I did was go look for the nutrition facts but I could only find the prop blend. With that many per day it could be enough though. But please Spencer, please don't sell it like your a scummy supplement company, just tell us it worked for you so we can trust all your sponsorships.

Thanks for this video Spencer. I appreciate that you have tried this and are giving a real world review to us as your viewers. Recovering better is where you get faster and I want to recover better and get faster. I still work my tail off everyday and will continue doing so. I did order some to try and see if it will help me along with the hard work that I put in. I'm old and need a slight boost.. 🙃. Thanks again Spence! Best of luck outdoors. We will be cheering for you. You have sub 4 in those legs. No question.
Why do they say that the reduction in lactic acid will improve performance? Lactic acid by itself does not decrease performance and ONLY decreasing lactic acid production would not improve performance. I saw your post on Strava and I don't dislike the video. I think that extreme endurance should clarify if they are talking about decreasing lactic acid or if it is something like retarding exercise-induced metabolic acidosis.
I will not lie, I’ve been taking this stuff for a year now and idk how to explain it but I do feel more relaxed and aerobically fit after taking it. I saw this more present after I got the COVID as I just lost my fitness and had to restart. If you want my opinion I think this stuff is legit and of all their products, extreme endurance, collagen and fuel 5 are the best
I think it has to do with increase the nitric oxide concentration in your blood. Which would cause vasodilation, allow blood to travel quick with less work. Cheaper alternative or an additional add on I’d suggest is beet root juice or a concentrate product like “beet it”
It's called the placebo effect. The study you cite even says that the supplement reduced lactate concentration BUT this did NOT lead to an actual change in performance.
80$ for ✔ Calcium Carbonate - Strengthens muscle, bone and heart function . ✔ Papain - Anti-inflammatory that reduces muscle soreness after exercise. ✔ Magnesium - Improves muscle function & may boost athletic performance. ✔ Black Pepper Fruit - Powerful antioxidant that enriches nutrient absorption . ✔ Selenium, Chromium & Potassium - Vital minerals for growth & recovery. hard pass
would be nice if you shown whats in it instead of what color is the packaging. 80$ for ✔ Calcium Carbonate - Strengthens muscle, bone and heart function . ✔ Papain - Anti-inflammatory that reduces muscle soreness after exercise. ✔ Magnesium - Improves muscle function & may boost athletic performance. ✔ Black Pepper Fruit - Powerful antioxidant that enriches nutrient absorption . ✔ Selenium, Chromium & Potassium - Vital minerals for growth & recovery.
So if I start taking this supplement is gonna help me produce over all endurance faster or is it doing the work for me as in and improve me greatly while using it but then when I stop. I’m going to be better off never using it and training without it. Because there will come a point in when I get to the challenge I’m training for that I won’t be able to take it anymore. So is it worth taking or should I not take it at all?
When I was teenager I went to the gym and everybody was talking about creatine. I was hesitated to try but because I never took anything the first weeks were amazing. But when I reached a level it was just okayish. Probably Spencer doesnt even take multivitamins thats why he feels a big difference, plus placebo.
It was shown to be affective in placebo-controlled studies. He mentioned that part about the double-blind sampling. I believe in the placebo effect strongly, but this supplement passed a level of scrutiny many medications cannot. That's just objective truth. I don't get paid to say that and I don't take it.

Been taking this for about a year and found it really made a difference. After about 4 months took a month off and felt it. Started back after that month off and noticed the difference again within a few days. Really believe in this product.
Hey ! Could you help me find ways to get through “overtraining”. My legs have been tired all the time the past month. I did have a few good workouts but ez runs and warm up CD are so slow and deadish. my legs are constantly tired. Thanks !
Yo, I’m going through some weird pain going on in my foot, it hurts when I walk long distances and when ran on Tuesday and hear me out I was on trails! For some reason my foot was hurting! I m biking until I feel no pain! But awesome video bro! Please give me feedback about this pain from the bottom of my foot!
I’d see a doctor mate but could be tendinitis or plantar fasciitis if it’s really bad. Just take a week easy and try to bike instead of running until you have no pain. Most likely an overuse injury
Yes, Juergen Klingsman had the US Mens team on it and two studies were done by Brian O'Donnel - U-19 US National Soccer Team for World Cup Qualifying, Serbia, Brian O’Donell, coach/trainer U-20 US National Soccer Team for World Cup Qualifying, Jamaica, Brian O’Donell, coach/trainer
Isometric calf raises are good for posterior shin splints (along the inside of leg). Toe raises are good for front of leg. I recently got x-rays and have a stress fracture in my left shin. If you’ve done a lot to try and resolve the problem but still have pain, I’d see a PT or doctor to make sure you don’t have any fractures.
Really enjoying this new kind of informative style video. The effects of this product seem to be game changing - definitely going to try it myself. Looking forward to see more videos like this
I enjoyed this video and I understand it’s an ad, but it’s clearly a product you are passionate about and not just a money scheme. I have been watching you for long enough to know that you care about your community more than to pitch a product you don’t believe in. Here for it spencer

Does this conflict with your mantra labs sponsorship at all? Curious about the differences between supplements

Do you take it every day or only workout days?
Now that it’s been about a year, how many people who commented are still taking this? Curious what the long term effects vs benefits are.
Way too expensive
Still taking this product and if so those it still make a difference?
Is it ok for a senior in highschool to take this for cross country

How much research have you done of this supplement? Sounds a little questionable to be taking pills that would enhance performance so quickly.
I know a lot of tinman elite use this brand as well if that means anything 🤷🏼♂️ but yeah he probably should had actually researched it

Yikes.
I’m a high school runner does age matter when taking this
I guess what I’m saying is would it increase my performance faster than not taking at all if the final test was me not on it 6 months from now?
Legal doesn't mean it's morally right
Can a teenager take this product
Been taking this for about a year and found it really made a difference. After about 4 months took a month off and felt it. Started back after that month off and noticed the difference again within a few days. Really believe in this product.

I would take a down week of low mileage and just do all easy slow runs with maybe some light speed like some 200s or something
Yeah what he said, take a week or more super easy, not over 20 minutes a day of running until you feel better

Guys my shin splints are so bad. Had them for abt 7 months. Any advice?
get a pvc pipe and roll dem calves out
Shin splints are caused by being too heavy on your feet. You can speed up your cadence to permanently avoid them
Isometric calf raises are good for posterior shin splints (along the inside of leg). Toe raises are good for front of leg. I recently got x-rays and have a stress fracture in my left shin. If you’ve done a lot to try and resolve the problem but still have pain, I’d see a PT or doctor to make sure you don’t have any fractures.
