Why Runners Need This

Running Depletes.
These Replenish.

Running is one of the most metabolically demanding sports. A 10-mile run can burn 1,000+ calories, deplete glycogen reserves, break down muscle tissue, and flush electrolytes through sweat. Most runners nail their training plan. They completely ignore nutrition.

The result: bonking at mile 18, chronic fatigue, injuries that won't heal, and performance plateaus that have nothing to do with fitness. Fuel is the variable most runners haven't optimized.

XWERKS gives you the four products that address every phase of running performance — pre-run energy and focus, intra-run carbohydrate fueling, post-run protein for muscle repair, and daily creatine to increase power and speed recovery.

Creatine for runners? Yes. Studies show creatine improves sprint performance at the end of long runs, reduces muscle damage markers, and speeds recovery — all critical for high-mileage training.
What Running Does to Your Body
Glycogen Depletion
Carbs Fix This

Your muscles store ~90 min of glycogen at race pace. After that, performance drops sharply. Cluster Dextrin (Motion) keeps stores topped without bloating.

Muscle Breakdown
Protein Fixes This

Endurance running breaks down muscle tissue. 25g of whey isolate (Grow) within 30 min post-run accelerates repair and adaptation.

Electrolyte Loss
Motion Fixes This

Sweat depletes sodium, calcium, and magnesium. Motion's electrolyte blend replaces what you lose and buffers lactic acid buildup.

Mental Fatigue
Ignite Fixes This

Long runs erode focus and pacing judgment. Ignite's nootropic blend sustains mental clarity so you finish with purpose, not survival mode.

Running Protocol

What to Take.
When to Take It.

A complete fueling protocol for race day and training. Four products. Zero bonking.

1
Pre-Run
Ignite
20–30 min before

Prime your CNS and lock in pacing focus. 150mg caffeine keeps you dialed without the jitters that disrupt your form on long runs.

Pre-Workout
2
Pre-Run
Motion
30 min before

Load 25g of Cluster Dextrin to top off glycogen. Near-zero osmotic pressure means no sloshing, no bloating — just clean fuel ready to burn.

Carb Load
3
During Run
Motion
Every 45–60 min

Keep replenishing on anything over 60 minutes. Sip every 45 min for half marathons+. Electrolytes replace sweat losses and buffer lactic acid.

Intra-Run
4
Post-Run
Grow + Lift
Within 30 min

25g whey isolate kick-starts muscle protein synthesis. 5g creatine rebuilds phosphocreatine stores and reduces DOMS for your next training day.

Recovery

Daily non-negotiable: Take Lift every single day regardless of whether you run. Creatine works by saturating muscle stores over time — consistency is what makes it work.

Common Questions

Running Supplement FAQ

What should I take before a run?

Take Ignite 20–30 minutes before any run where focus and pacing matter. For long runs (60+ min) or races, also mix a serving of Motion 30 minutes before for a carb load. Both together give you mental sharpness and full glycogen stores at the start line.

Do I really need to fuel during a run?

For runs under 60 minutes, you can get by on existing glycogen. For anything 60+ minutes — long runs, half marathons, marathons, or ultras — fueling during your run is critical. Motion's Cluster Dextrin absorbs quickly with zero GI distress, making it the ideal intra-run fuel.

Will Motion cause stomach issues during running?

No — this is specifically why we use Cluster Dextrin (HBCD) instead of maltodextrin or sports gels. HBCD has near-zero osmotic pressure so it passes through the stomach fast without the sloshing or nausea common with traditional gels and drinks.

Should runners take creatine?

Yes. Research shows creatine improves sprint performance in the final kilometers of long runs, reduces muscle damage markers, and accelerates recovery between training days. It also builds the strength base that makes you a better runner. Take Lift daily — it mixes with Grow or anything else.

How much protein do runners need?

Runners need more protein than most people think — research suggests 1.4–1.7g per kg of body weight for endurance athletes. Grow’s 25g of whey isolate post-run is a fast, clean way to hit your target and start the muscle repair process immediately.

Is Ignite safe to take before long races?

Yes. Ignite uses 150mg of caffeine — a moderate, well-studied dose that improves endurance performance without the anxiety, jitters, or GI distress that high-dose pre-workouts (200–300mg+) can cause during long efforts.

Can I take all four products together?

Absolutely. The four products are designed to work together: Ignite pre-run, Motion pre and intra-run, Grow post-run, and Lift daily. They cover every phase of running performance and recovery without any ingredient overlap or conflict.
