What is Xwerks Rise?
Rise is a natural testosterone support supplement designed to help optimize hormone levels, increase vitality, build muscle, boost energy, and improve overall masculine wellness. It uses four clinically-studied ingredients to support your body's natural testosterone production.
-
How many capsules come in a bottle?
Each bottle contains 60 capsules, which is a 30-day supply (1 month) when taking the recommended dose of 2 capsules per day.
-
What are the main ingredients in Rise?
Rise contains four active ingredients plus an absorption enhancer: Tongkat Ali (Longjack) 400mg, Shilajit Extract 250mg, Zinc 15mg (136% DV), Boron 6mg, and BioPerine 10mg for enhanced absorption.
-
What is Tongkat Ali and why is it in Rise?
Tongkat Ali (also called Longjack or Eurycoma longifolia) is an herb from Southeast Asia used for centuries in traditional medicine. It contains high concentrations of flavonoids, alkaloids, and antioxidants that support testosterone production, improve body composition, increase sex drive, improve fertility, and help relieve stress.
-
What is Shilajit?
Shilajit is a resin-like substance found in high mountain rocks (particularly the Himalayas) that forms over thousands of years from decomposed plants. It's rich in fulvic acid and contains over 84 minerals. Shilajit supports testosterone production, protects against aging, and boosts fertility.
-
Why does Rise include Zinc?
Zinc is essential for testosterone production and overall reproductive health. Many men are deficient in zinc, which can suppress testosterone levels. Rise provides 15mg (136% of the recommended daily intake) to ensure your body has the zinc it needs for optimal hormone production.
-
What does Boron do?
Boron is a trace mineral that helps maximize free testosterone by reducing SHBG (Sex Hormone Binding Globulin), which binds to testosterone and makes it inactive. Boron can reduce SHBG by approximately 9% within hours of intake, increasing the amount of free, active testosterone in your system.
-
What is BioPerine and why is it included?
BioPerine is a purified black pepper extract containing 95% piperine. It enhances the bioavailability and absorption of the other ingredients by up to 200%, making the supplement more effective. It doesn't provide testosterone benefits itself but ensures your body can fully utilize the active ingredients.
-
How do I take Rise?
Take 2 capsules daily, preferably in the morning with a glass of water. You can take Rise with or without food, though taking it with a meal is recommended to maximize absorption and reduce any potential stomach discomfort.
-
Can I take Rise on an empty stomach?
While you can, it's generally recommended to take Rise with food to maximize absorption and reduce the risk of stomach upset.
-
What time of day should I take Rise?
Morning is recommended as this aligns with your body's natural testosterone production cycle. However, since Rise is caffeine-free, you can take it at any time that fits your schedule.
-
Does Rise contain caffeine or stimulants?
No, Rise is completely caffeine-free and contains no stimulants. This means no jitters, no crashes, and you can take it any time of day without affecting your sleep.
-
When will I start seeing results?
Most men notice initial improvements (better sleep, increased energy, improved mood) within 1-2 weeks. More significant changes (increased strength, improved body composition, enhanced libido, better mental clarity) typically become apparent by weeks 3-4. Peak benefits are usually experienced after 2-3 months of consistent use.
-
How long should I take Rise?
Rise is designed for long-term continuous use. Unlike synthetic hormones, Rise supports your body's natural production, so there's no need to cycle off. For best results, take consistently for at least 4-8 weeks initially, then continue as long as you want to maintain optimized hormone levels.
-
Do I need to cycle off Rise?
No cycling is required. Rise works by supporting your natural testosterone production rather than replacing it, so your body doesn't develop dependence. Some sources suggest an optional 2-week break every 8-12 weeks to prevent tolerance, but this isn't necessary for most users.
-
What benefits can I expect from Rise?
Rise supports increased testosterone levels, improved free testosterone, reduced cortisol and estrogen to healthier levels, increased muscle mass and strength, enhanced energy and vitality, improved body composition (more muscle, less fat), elevated libido and sexual performance, better mood and confidence, reduced stress, improved recovery, and enhanced overall masculine wellness.
-
Will Rise help me build muscle?
Yes, by optimizing testosterone levels, Rise supports increased muscle protein synthesis, improved strength, and better body composition. However, you must be committed to regular resistance training and proper nutrition to see significant muscle gains. Rise optimizes your hormonal environment; your training and diet determine the results.
-
Can Rise help with fat loss?
Yes, Rise can support fat loss, particularly around the midsection. Optimized testosterone levels increase metabolic rate, improve fat oxidation, and help preserve lean muscle mass during fat loss. Boron specifically has been shown to help with fat metabolism. However, you still need to maintain a proper diet and exercise routine.
-
Will Rise increase my libido and sexual performance?
Yes, many men report improved libido, sexual desire, and performance within the first month of taking Rise. Optimized testosterone and reduced stress (lower cortisol) both contribute to enhanced sexual function, stronger erections, and increased sex drive.
-
Does Rise improve energy levels?
Yes, increased testosterone naturally elevates energy levels. Most men notice improved morning energy (less grogginess, easier to wake up), sustained energy throughout the day, better workout performance and intensity, and reduced afternoon crashes within the first 2-4 weeks.
-
How does Rise regulate cortisol and estrogen?
Rise's ingredients work synergistically to balance your entire hormonal system, not just testosterone. Tongkat Ali helps reduce cortisol (stress hormone), while Boron helps prevent testosterone from converting to estrogen and reduces SHBG. This creates a more favorable hormonal environment for masculine vitality.
-
Is Rise safe to take?
Rise uses natural, well-researched ingredients at clinically-studied dosages. Most men experience no side effects when taking Rise as directed. However, individual responses can vary. If you have any pre-existing medical conditions, are taking medications, or have concerns, consult your healthcare provider before starting any new supplement.
-
Are there any side effects?
Most users experience no side effects. Some ingredients like Tongkat Ali may occasionally cause mild headaches or stomach discomfort in sensitive individuals, which is why taking Rise with food is recommended. If you experience any adverse effects, discontinue use and consult your doctor.
-
Can I take Rise with other supplements?
Yes, Rise can be stacked with other Xwerks products like Grow (protein), Lift (creatine), Ignite (pre-workout), and Motion (intra-workout). For maximum testosterone support, Xwerks recommends combining Rise with Ashwa (ashwagandha) gummies. However, do not combine Rise with other testosterone boosters without consulting your healthcare provider.
-
Should I take Rise with Xwerks Ashwa?
Xwerks recommends combining Rise with Ashwa (ashwagandha gummies) for maximum effectiveness. Ashwagandha further reduces cortisol, enhances stress management, and supports testosterone production, creating a synergistic effect with Rise's ingredients.
-
Is Rise suitable for vegans or vegetarians?
No, Rise capsules contain gelatin, making the product unsuitable for vegans and strict vegetarians.
-
Does Rise contain any allergens?
Rise does not contain common allergens like gluten, dairy, soy, or nuts. However, always check the label if you have specific allergies or sensitivities.
-
Are there any artificial ingredients in Rise?
No, Rise contains no sugar, fillers, artificial dyes, artificial colors, or artificial flavors. It's a clean, natural formula with transparent ingredient labeling.
-
Who should take Rise?
Rise is designed for men experiencing symptoms of declining testosterone, including those feeling less energetic than before, struggling to build or maintain muscle, experiencing decreased libido or sexual performance, noticing increased body fat (especially belly fat), dealing with mental fog or decreased motivation, feeling less confident or assertive, over age 30 (when testosterone naturally begins declining), dealing with chronic stress, and wanting to optimize their hormonal health naturally.
-
Who should NOT take Rise?
Rise may not be suitable for men under 18, those with diagnosed medical conditions affecting hormone production without doctor approval, men taking prescription medications (especially for prostate issues) without consulting their doctor, those with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), those with fertility concerns without medical consultation, vegans or strict vegetarians (due to gelatin capsules), and anyone with allergies to any of the ingredients.
-
Can women take Rise?
Yes, Rise is formulated specifically for natural hormone optimization and and can benefit women.
-
Can I take Rise if I have low testosterone?
If you have clinically diagnosed low testosterone (hypogonadism), you should work with your healthcare provider to determine the appropriate treatment. Rise supports natural testosterone production and may help with suboptimal levels, but it's not a replacement for medical treatment of diagnosed conditions.
-
How does Rise compare to other testosterone boosters?
Rise distinguishes itself with a minimalist, transparent formula using only four well-researched ingredients at clinical dosages. Unlike many competitors with proprietary blends and dozens of under-dosed ingredients, Rise focuses on quality over quantity. It provides premium dosages of Tongkat Ali (400mg, at the high end of clinical recommendations) and Shilajit (250mg, higher than most competitors who use 100-150mg).
-
Does Rise work for men over 40? Over 50? Over 60?
Yes, Rise is particularly effective for men in their 40s, 50s, 60s, and beyond when natural testosterone decline accelerates. The ingredients in Rise specifically address age-related hormonal imbalances including decreased testosterone production, increased SHBG binding, elevated cortisol from stress, and nutritional deficiencies (especially zinc).
-
How does stress affect my testosterone, and how does Rise help?
Chronic stress elevates cortisol, which directly antagonizes testosterone production, increases SHBG (which binds and inactivates testosterone), promotes belly fat accumulation (which produces estrogen), disrupts sleep, and depletes essential nutrients. Rise's Tongkat Ali specifically helps reduce cortisol levels, breaking this negative cycle and allowing testosterone production to recover.
-
Can I expect the same results as synthetic testosterone?
No, Rise supports your body's natural testosterone production rather than introducing synthetic hormones. Results are more gradual but sustainable without the risks of synthetic testosterone such as testicular shutdown, dependency, hormonal imbalances after stopping, cardiovascular risks, prostate concerns, or requiring post-cycle therapy.
-
Will my natural testosterone production shut down if I take Rise?
No, because Rise doesn't introduce external testosterone. It provides nutrients and compounds that support your body's own production mechanisms, so your natural production continues functioning normally.
-
Can I take Rise if I work out regularly?
Yes, Rise is excellent for active individuals and athletes. Optimized testosterone supports muscle growth, strength gains, faster recovery, improved performance, better body composition, and enhanced training adaptation.
-
Should I take Rise on rest days?
Yes, take Rise consistently every day including rest days. Hormonal optimization requires consistent daily supplementation, and your body is recovering and rebuilding on rest days when hormonal support is crucial.
-
How long does a bottle last?
One bottle contains 60 capsules, which lasts exactly 30 days when taking the recommended dose of 2 capsules per day.
-
Can I double the dose for faster results?
No, stick to the recommended dosage of 2 capsules per day. Taking more will not accelerate results and may increase the risk of side effects. The ingredients are dosed for optimal effectiveness at the recommended amount.
-
Where is Rise manufactured?
Rise is manufactured in GMP-certified facilities in the United States, ensuring quality control and safety standards are met.
-
Can I take Rise if I'm taking prescription medications?
If you're taking any prescription medications, especially those for hormone-related conditions, prostate health, or blood pressure, consult your healthcare provider before taking Rise. Zinc and other ingredients can interact with certain medications.
