Directions:Days 1-5: During this five day loading phase take two servings daily. Consume one serving in the morning immediately upon waking and one serving immediately after your workout. On non-training days take your second serving in the afternoon between meals.
Day 6 on: Only one serving per day is needed. On training days consume Volu-Gro immediately after your workout. On non-training days take Volu-Gro immediately upon waking or in the afternoon between meals.
Important: For best results follow these steps: 1.) Mix Volu-Gro (two level scoops) with 20 oz. of water. 2.) Shake vigorously for 30 seconds. 3.) Drink slowly and stir or shake occasionally to prevent residue build up.
Following these steps will allow Volu-Gro to achieve the optimum low osmolality rate (osmolality defines how fast a solution passes through the stomach; the lower the osmolality rate of a solution the quicker is passes through the stomach), and to further accelerate the crucial transport of creatine, water and Waxy Maize Starch from the stomach to the small intestine and subsequently into the bloodstream. This creates an extremely hypotonic solution with a much lower osmolality rate than any creatine/dextrose mixture, which ensures Volu-Gro’s ultra fast passage through the stomach. Since Volu-Gro passes through the stomach so quickly and is sugar free you will not experience the stomach discomfort which is often associated with creatine and high glycemic sugars (dextrose, maltodextrin).
On training days always consume Volu-Gro immediately after your workout. Volu-Gro is a vastly superior post workout creatine drink because it replenishes muscle glycogen 70% faster than creatine plus dextrose or any other creatine/carbohydrate mixture for that matter. This leads to accelerated muscle recovery, greater cell volumization and better muscle gains. In order to support muscle growth and recovery over the long-term we suggest that you take Volu-Gro for at least 8 weeks. Since Volu-Gro is such a superior post workout creatine drink, it can be consumed year round to aid in muscle recovery.

Loads Creatine & Glycogen Into Muscles for Big Gains in Solid Mass
VOLU‑GRO™ contains 60 grams of a very unique and ultra high-molecular weight carbohydrate called Long Chain Waxy Maize Starch per serving to maximize creatine and glycogen loading. Waxy Maize Starch is equally as potent in stimulating insulin as dextrose and maltodextrin, yet unlike these two sugars, Waxy Maize Starch is completely sugar free. Waxy Maize Starch passes through the stomach faster than dextrose or maltodextrin and therefore does not cause the same discomfort. In doing so Waxy Maize Starch acts like a pump, pulling creatine and water along with it into the bloodstream. This ensures that creatine and insulin are present in the bloodstream at the same time. A much greater amount of creatine can now be transported into the muscles due to synchronized levels of creatine and insulin in the blood.
Additionally, if taken immediately after training, the Waxy Maize Starch element in VOLU‑GRO restores muscular glycogen (muscle energy) faster than dextrose or maltodextrin. This makes VOLU‑GRO the ideal post workout creatine formula. It not only helps to deliver more creatine to the muscles, but also replenishes glycogen stores much quicker causing the muscle cells to become super-hydrated while speeding up recovery more efficiently than any other glucose polymer or monomer (dextrose, maltodextrin, sucrose, fructose etc.). The overall result is a greater muscle cell volume, enhanced protein synthesis, and improved nutrient transport; all major factors contributing to more muscle growth. The fusion of creatine with long chain waxy maize starch as seen in VOLU‑GRO has set a new standard in creatine supplementation.
Detailed Facts About VOLU‑GRO
Waxy Maize Starch
Sugar-free ultra-high molecular weight waxy maize starch is a very effective compound to load glycogen and creatine into muscles. Waxy maize starch has an extremely low osmolarity rate and forms a very hypotonic solution when mixed with water. These two factors allow waxy maize starch to pass through the stomach quicker than many other carbohydrates. In doing so it acts like a pump pulling creatine and fluids along with it into the bloodstream.
Consisting of 99% amylopectin waxy maize starch causes a rapid and pronounced insulin spike allowing for glucose and creatine to be pressed into muscle cells for cell expansion and super-hydration. In other words, the loading of creatine and glycogen are maximized.
Waxy maize starch is the ideal carbohydrate source for a post-workout drink as it quickly replenishes muscular glycogen stores hence optimizing recovery.
Creatine Monohydrate
Creatine supplementation is essential to enhancing the capacity of energy production during high-intensity workouts. Creatine has proven itself, time and time again, to improve exercise performance accounting for gains in strength, power, and repetitive speed work. Long term creatine ingestion can also lead to significant gains in muscle mass accounted for higher workout intensity, more energy availability and augmentation of myosin heavy chain expression. The harder you train, with increased myogenic regulatory factors from creatine supplementation, the more apt you are to experiencing considerable hypertrophy.
Creatine monohydrate has also claimed its remarked absorption capacity (in comparison with other forms of creatine) especially when in conjunction with the ideal carbohydrate source such as ultra-high molecular weight waxy maize starch.
Magnesium
Magnesium makes a significant contribution to the glycogen loading system of VOLU‑GRO. Muscle and liver glycogen formation from blood glucose is enhanced as a result of magnesium supplementation. Magnesium also serves as an electrolyte, especially when combined with potassium.
Phosphorus
Phosphorous is an important component of adenosine triphosphate (ATP), cyclic adenosine monophosphate (AMP), and phosphocreatine. All three are essential to providing energy to the body for all biological processes, particularly enhancing energy for intense workouts.
Potassium
Potassium serves as an imperative electrolyte component for efficacious absorption of nutrients as well as clearing waste products from the body. Furthermore, potassium serves to optimize muscle action and stimulation from respective nerve impulses.
How does VOLU-GRO work?
VOLU-GRO utilizes a high molecular weight waxy maize starch (derived from corn) carbohydrate. Designed for its ability to stimulate insulin and act as pump to pull creatine and water from the stomach and into the bloodstream, at the same time allowing creatine and insulin to peak simultaneously, unlike conventional pre-loaded creatine mixtures using dextrose. Most creatine formulas today depend on dextrose (simple sugar) to raise insulin. Scientific studies have long proven that dextrose is absorbed faster than creatine, which means that the important insulin spike comes too soon and leaves a substantial portion of creatine without a carrier, and the creatine goes to waste.
Another important feature of VOLU-GRO is its ability to load glycogen into your muscles. Glycogen enhances muscle size by increasing the muscle cell's volume. It is also critical for recovery after a workout. Waxy Maize actually has the ability to replenish the body's glycogen stores faster than maltodextrin or dextrose.
How do I take VOLU-GRO?
During the first five days (loading phase) we recommend taking two servings with one serving taken post-workout. This allows for proper saturation of creatine in the muscle cell and for extensive muscular glycogen loading. After the loading phase you would take just one serving immediately after your workout to maintain creatine levels in the muscle and quickly replenish glycogen. On non-training day you will take one serving of VOLU-GRO in the morning.
Since I take VOLU-GRO after I train, when should I take my protein shake?
We recommend taking your protein shake about 20 minutes after your serving of VOLU-GRO. Consuming protein too close to VOLU-GRO can slow the absorption of the product.
Will VOLU-GRO cause me to retain water like other creatine products?
Due to VOLU-GRO's unique formulation it allows for an increased uptake of creatine. In the past most creatine products were loaded with dextrose or maltodextrin (simple and low molecular sugars) to spike insulin and shuttle creatine into muscles. The problem here is that creatine and dextrose/maltodextrin have different absorption rates. As a result, a large percentage of creatine is left in the stomach for too long. This is where most athletes would notice bloating in the stomach, dehydration, and occasionally cramping. These unwanted effects generally do not happen with the use of VOLU-GRO.
Why do you use creatine monohydrate in VOLU-GRO?
When combined with a superior delivery system such as waxy maize, creatine monohydrate has been shown to be very effective in increasing muscle volume and strength.
How many servings are in VOLU-GRO?
A bottle of VOLU-GRO contains 20 servings.
Do I need to cycle VOLU-GRO?
VOLU-GRO can be used for extended periods of time without taking a break or cycling off.
Where can I purchase VOLU-GRO?
VOLU-GRO can be purchased at your local Vitamin Shoppe and online at Nutrex.com.

Have you ever been interested in trying a brand name product you've seen and heard great things about at your local gym but wanted do a bit more research on your own just to be sure you're buying the best product? If you're like most people these days the first thing you do is perform an internet search to see what other consumers are saying. You'd think this would be easy enough… Right? Well these days you'll find you have to sift through many shameless marketing tactics being used by internet companies looking to capitalize on popular brand names to confuse consumers with bogus reviews so they can give rave reviews to some obscure product you've never heard about. Many of these companies use tactics such as registering domain names like; Lipo6black.com, Lipo6blackreview.blogdrive.com, Lipo6-reviews.com, Lipo6review.net, and Lipo6blackhersreviews.com to confuse consumers into thinking they're providing unbiased consumer reviews or are domains licensed to the brand itself. Some companies even go the extent of hiring companies from third world countries to falsify hundreds of unquantifiable reviews on their products on 3rd party sites (some very well know sites). Unfortunately, these are some of the downsides of using the internet to look for unbiased information. The anonymity of the internet alone shelters companies identities and allows many companies to exploit consumers' lack of knowledge of these new internet marketing tactics. As shameless at this may be it's something each and every consumer should be aware of before making a buying decision.
When we realized this was a growing trend in internet marketing we felt it was our duty to not only shine a spot light on these tactics but if we were going to begin implementing this crucial marketing strategy we needed to find the best 3rd party review software company focused on providing consumers with the most accurate level of REAL consumer reviews. This is why Nutrex Research made the choice to partner up with PowerReviews®. We explored many different products but the PowerReviews® software integration is the most accurate and complete service with consumer friendly features which validate different levels of consumer reviews. What we found very intriguing was its ability to quantify the reviewer and let other interested consumers know if they were reading a review from a customer who had actually tried the product they are interested in or someone just posting a review. There are 4 levels of reviews...3 with badges: 1st "Verified Buyers"–consumers who actually purchased the product through Nutrex.com and used the product and posted a review after their use; 2nd "Verified Reviewer"–consumers who may have purchased through 3rd party vendors such as The Vitamin Shoppe, GNC or many of the independent retailers and online retailers nationwide and provided their email address as confirmation it's not some type of automated system posting random reviews; 3rd would be the least common "Staff Review". This would be a review posted by a staff member maybe in the event of a new product launch during beta testing. Last would be reviews that do not contain a badge. This is where the consumer chose to write a review but decided not to provide an email address to substantiate the review. This doesn't necessarily mean the review is fraudulent. It could be that the reviewer was concerned that providing a email address would add them to another list of *SPAM* emails. When examining reviews not only on Nutrex.com but also on other websites like; 4supplementreviews.com, supplementreviews.org, productreviews2u.com, bodybuilding.com and supplementreviews.com, we encourage each and every consumer to read as many of the reviews as possible to make an educated decision. Be sure to question whether or not these sites are using any type of 3rd party review validation software (like PowerReviews) and trust only those companies that encourage honest and accurate feedback from consumers who have firsthand experience with products. If you still find yourself unsure after investigating many reviews, we encourage you to visit our Facebook page and inquire about consumer feedback on a product you're interested in. You'll find social networking fan pages can be the perfect place to get real time unbiased info both positive and negative which should help make your buying decision easy.
At Nutrex Research we feel it's our obligation to help consumers be informed of these new trends in internet marketing.
I have been using Volu Gro for over two years and have not found any products on the market to do what they claim to do like Volu Gro. I use Volu Gro before bed each night I love the way it allows me to recover and the fullness and hardness that I maintain is unreal.There isn't anything not so great about Volu Gro that I can think of.
I have been excited to try volugro for a long time now. Received my bottle a couple days ago and used a serving of it postworkout. I have the blue raspberry flavor and Im not sure if I used too much water, but it was pretty hard to choke down. It was pretty hard to mix and the taste was less than desirable. I have tried it again with less water and it is more tolerable. On a lighter note, I am less sore after an intense workout and the pump lasted forever! Im not ranking this product on taste alone because Im a firm believer that if it works, I will get it down one way or another! Maybe next time I will try a different flavor, but as long as the product works and keeps working, then thats all that matters to me! Nutrex research never lets me down on results and I am an avid user of most of their products!
Volugro is designed to be a post workout supplement but i discovered the benifit of taking it pre and post workout...i take it pre workout and it gives my muscles more energy to get those few extra reps i really need to grow. also my pumps are alot fuller and last longer. i use it post workout to get that super hydration i need to fill my muscle up with nutrients that can rebuild and repair my muscle alot fast than jus protein alone..
I usually take b4 my workout and it acts as a energizer for me and gives me an OFF THA HOOK PUMP that i keep all evening. Post w/o just enhances what i've done during my workout. i dieted down from 262 to 217 for a comp. after the competition the VOLU GRO just attacks my body with great results. i've been slipping NUTREX. I'm sorry but now I'm gonna get to 270-275 before i diet for another comp.
This is a great post workout drink. Although I have the Blue Raspberry. It goes down smooth and there is no after taste. I was shocked that I liked it because I tend to only drink chocolate flavored supplements. I dont feel as sore as I usually do!
