Once upon a time, the sons of the dwarf king Ivaldi created the most powerful of all weapons. The mighty Gungnir, the spear of the All-Father Odin. Born from the consuming fire at the end of the world, forged with an iron will, unstoppable and strong, it never misses its target. The fire may burn everything, yet it creates the strongest things. You decide, because it only needs a spark to create a mighty flame. The hardest steel is forged in the hottest fire. In the end, what matters is that the fire within you burns more powerfully than the consuming fire around you. Only then will you yourself become Gungnir, who defies everything, the weapon of the gods, strong and unstoppable."
Gungnir - because healing and regeneration are two of your strongest weapons in your battles in the power room and during brutal and merciless battles
Brute strength and enormous mountains of muscle mass that will leave every opponent paralyzed with fear are only one side of the coin. It is at least as important that you recover as quickly as possible after brutal and merciless battles and that your hard-won, injured muscles are quickly repaired and rebuilt stronger than before so that you can easily withstand even tougher strains in the future.
Anything that will help you do this can be considered one of the strongest weapons in your arsenal and is at least as important as your sword or your deadly Nordic battle axe. For this reason, we have named this product, which promotes and accelerates your regeneration after brutal and exhausting battles against the toughest foes and the cold steel of the weights in the gym, as well as increasing your resistance to disease, after the most powerful of all weapons of the Norse gods - Gungnir, the spear of Odin, forged in the consuming fire at the end of the world with an iron will by the sons of the dwarf king Ivaldi and which never misses its target.
Gungnir - more than just support for your regeneration and improved immune system function!
Our Gungnir was primarily developed to support regeneration and healing of micro-trauma and damage to your muscles after brutal battles on the battlefield or in the gym, so that you will be ready for the next merciless battle more quickly. At the same time, Gungnir boosts the function of your immune system to prevent banal illnesses such as a cold or flu from weakening you and impairing your fighting ability.
But that is by no means all. Gungnir also promotes and accelerates your muscle growth by stimulating muscle protein synthesis and promoting a positive nitrogen balance. Furthermore, when taken on an empty stomach, our Gungnir can increase your release of muscle-building hormones by up to 400%, which will give your muscle growth and fat loss a powerful boost. At the same time, Gungnir will increase your muscle cell volume, making your fast-growing muscles even bigger and more awesome, signaling to any potential opponent that they better not mess with you.
But that's not all Gungnir also has a pronounced anti-catabolic effect and can effectively protect your hard-earned, valuable muscles from catabolic breakdown - especially during periods of starvation as part of a strict low-calorie diet or tough, deprivation-laden competition preparation.
Gungnir does everything it can to keep you strong, powerful and healthy, so that you are always ready for brutal battles against seemingly overpowering enemies.
What is the unique power of Gungnir based on?
In the tradition of the Norse warriors, who lived very healthily apart from the occasional feast of mead after successful raids, Gungnir is free from dubious and potentially harmful or unhealthy ingredients. It contains only pure and proven natural glutamine, the effects and safety of which have been proven beyond doubt by countless scientific studies.
Glutamine is an amino acid that occurs naturally in the human body and in virtually every protein source, accounting for 20% of the amino acids present in the entire body and over 50% of the amino acids present in your muscles in free form. This high concentration of this amino acid shows how important it is for countless processes in your body. These bodily functions include the function of the immune system, the function of the digestive tract and the protein metabolism of the muscles, all of which would come to a standstill without glutamine.
Even though glutamine is a non-essential amino acid that the body can produce itself in certain quantities, there are often situations in which the body's own glutamine production is simply not sufficient to cover the increased glutamine requirement. Triggers for such drastically increased glutamine requirements include physical and mental stress, illness and intense physical exertion during brutal and grueling battles.
In such situations, if additional glutamine is not supplied through food or supplements such as Gungnir, the worst-case scenario for any Nordic warrior or strength athlete occurs: your body breaks down muscle tissue to access the glutamine or branched-chain amino acids(BCCAs) it contains for faster synthesis of much-needed, vital glutamine! In other words, too little glutamine can cost you some of your hard-won muscle mass!
But fear not, invincible Northman, Gungnir can save you from the horrors of catabolic muscle loss with the power of Odin!
The unique benefits of Gungnir in detail
We have already briefly mentioned some of the benefits that Gungnir can offer you. Now it's time to go into them in a little more detail and show what practical significance these benefits can have for you as an invincible Nordic fighter. And since there are still some people who still like to claim that glutamine is useless, we have taken the trouble to link to a few studies that back up our statements.
Gungnir to promote and accelerate your regeneration
A relentless battle - whether it takes place on the battlefield or in the gym - will sap your body's strength and leave you weakened and with reduced resistance. A quick recovery can make the difference between life and death in the next battle and the success or failure of your efforts in the gym. In both cases, you should leave nothing to chance and give your regeneration a significant boost with Gungnir.
During hard and intense battles against the cold steel in the gym, glutamine levels in your body can be reduced by up to 50% and without sufficient glutamine intake after training, it can often take several hours for these levels to return to normal (8). As long as these levels are not restored, the training-induced catabolic environment in the body cannot be converted into an anabolic environment that promotes muscle building.
Since the digestive tract and immune system rely on glutamine as an energy source, your body will even sacrifice muscle protein to meet its glutamine needs (9) - say goodbye to your muscle mass and fighting strength! But it doesn't have to come to that. Oral glutamine supplementation can increase plasma glutamine levels by 200% in a very short time (4), giving your body all the glutamine it so desperately needs.
Additionally, glutamine can accelerate glycogen resynthesis and the replenishment of your glycogen stores depleted during brutal fights or relentless training sessions (4, 5), which is crucial for recovery, as you will only be fully fit and ready to fight again when your muscle glycogen stores are full again and your body will only start building new muscle tissue once your glycogen stores have been replenished.
Do you want to fall into a catabolic hole after your workout and lose muscle or do you want to benefit from a rapid onset of muscle growth? With Gungnir you have it in your own hands!
Gungnir for faster gains in lean muscle mass and bigger and plumper muscles
Bigger muscles usually mean not only more (fighting) strength, but also a more awesome appearance that makes it unmistakably clear to all your opponents and competitors that it would be a very bad idea to mess with you, as they can only lose.
Glutamine stimulates muscle protein synthesis and plays an important role in regulating body-wide protein synthesis. Scientific studies have clearly shown that glutamine has a positive effect on protein synthesis, nitrogen balance and muscle growth (7).
In addition, glutamine has a muscle cell volumizing effect similar to creatine, as it has the ability to draw water into the muscle cells, making them plumper and fuller (6).
Apart from the fact that such an increase in muscle cell volume will make your muscles appear bigger, plumper and more impressive, an increase in muscle cell volume also has direct anabolic, muscle-building effects, as scientific research has shown that it can increase the rate of muscle protein synthesis.
To maximize the muscle cell volumizing effect with all its unique benefits, you can combine Gungnir with creatine, as these two active ingredients work together synergistically and enhance each other's cell volumizing effects. And what better way to do this than with Odins Strength - the purest creatine product under the heavens of the Norse gods, sent from Asgard by Odin himself.
Another interesting fact for muscle building is that an isolated intake of just 2 grams of glutamine on an empty stomach can increase the body's natural release of muscle-building hormones by up to 400% according to studies. These muscle-building hormones are among the body's most powerful anabolic hormones and can both accelerate your muscle growth and promote fat loss.
These direct anabolic effects are further enhanced by the aforementioned accelerated recovery, which will allow you to train harder and more often, often providing a stronger stimulus for building new muscle mass.
Gungnir - the fast track to bigger and more impressive muscles that will show all potential opponents who is the master in the gym!
Gungnir for protecting your hard-earned, valuable muscles during times of starvation
During times of famine, the most important thing for Nordic warriors is to maintain their fighting strength against all odds - and in practice this means losing as little muscle mass as possible. Even if famine is no longer on the agenda in our latitudes, there are very similar scenarios from a purely physiological point of view during a strict fat loss diet or intensive competition preparation.
And just as for the Vikings, maintaining their fighting strength could make the difference between life and death, for a competitive athlete, maintaining their muscle mass will make the difference between victory and defeat in a competition.
This is where Gungnir comes into play. Because glutamine has strong anti-catabolic, muscle loss preventing effects and also promotes the building of new muscle mass, it can effectively prevent you from losing muscle if you can't afford to give up even one gram of muscle mass.
Gungnir could make the difference between winning and losing your next (competitive) fight!
Gungnir to support your resistance and immune system
Diseases and plagues were among the most insidious enemies that Nordic warriors had to fight. These enemies could not be defeated with sword or battle axe and were the only enemy that could really pose a threat to a true Viking.
Even today, even the toughest fighters and strength athletes, who no other opponent can defeat, can be incapacitated by a few microscopic viruses or bacteria. If you're sick, you can't fight or train, which can cause you bitter defeats without a fight and cost you much of your hard-won progress.
Unfortunately, athletes who train intensively are particularly at risk, as hard and brutal training sessions have a negative impact on the immune system and therefore the immune defense is significantly impaired during the first hours after training (10), increasing the risk of infectious diseases.
Fortunately, the pure glutamine contained in Gungnir can support and strengthen your immune system and thus protect you from forced breaks due to illness. Scientific studies have shown that glutamine supplementation after hard training sessions can strengthen the immune system and significantly reduce the risk of infection (1,2) - and this effect is not limited to athletes, which means that every health-conscious person can benefit from glutamine!
With Gungnir, forced breaks in your training due to illness will be a thing of the past.
