Ingredients Label
Active Ingredients
Beta Alanine
Beta alanine is a fatigue-reducing compound.
It increases the body’s levels of carnosine, which can counteract the build-up of acid and free radicals during exercise (1).
An effective dose is between 2-5g.
Betaine
Betaine is a compound that is abundant in sugar beets.
Studies show that it can increase power output, and may also improve body composition (2).
An effective dose is about 2.5g.
Tyrosine
Tyrosine is an amino acid which can reduce stress hormone levels.
It’s been shown to boost mental performance in those who are fatigued or stressed (3).
An effective dose is between 500-2,000mg.
Agmatine
Agmatine is a nitric-oxide booster.
Nitric oxide can increase the expansion of blood vessels, which we call vasodilation. This can improve blood flow, pumps, and endurance (4).
It may also reduce stress and improve mood levels.
Caffeine
Caffeine is a stimulant which improves energy and athletic performance (5).
The effective dose varies with the individual, but is most often 200-500mg.
Norvaline
Norvaline is a compound that slows the breakdown of nitric-oxide boosters.
It may make the effects of agmatine last longer (6).
Huperzine-A
Huperzine-A is a brain-booster which can increase mental energy and improve brain function (7).
An effective dose is 50-200mcg.

BPN Flight is an excellent pre-workout formula, which caters to all aspects of training.
It contains ingredients that improve energy, performance, pumps, and focus, which are all included in full, clinically-effective doses.
