Hydramax 80% Glycerol Concentrate

What Does Hydramax 80% Glycerol Do?

Hydramax is a high-potency, branded form of glycerol powder designed to maximize hyper-hydration and muscle fullness. Unlike standard glycerol monostearate (GMS) which often clumps and contains only 10-25% actual glycerol, Hydramax provides a massive 80% concentration for superior results.

• Hyper-Hydration: It increases the osmotic pressure in your body, forcing your cells to retain more fluid than they normally would during intense exercise.
• Intracellular Volumization: By pulling water directly into the muscle cells, it creates a "water-based" pump that results in a denser, fuller look compared to traditional nitric oxide boosters.
• Thermoregulation: Maintaining higher fluid levels helps your body manage internal temperature more effectively, delaying the onset of fatigue in hot training environments.
• Endurance Support: By preventing dehydration-induced performance drops, it allows you to maintain power output for longer durations during high-volume sessions.

Clinical vs. Gym Bro Dosing

Key Insight: Hydramax is an osmotic agent, meaning it requires water to work. To see any benefit, you must consume at least 16-24 ounces of water alongside your pre-workout. Without adequate fluid intake, the ingredient cannot effectively volumize your muscles.

Side Effects & Warnings

• Digestive Distress: Large doses of glycerol can cause bloating, cramping, or a "heavy" feeling in the stomach if not diluted with enough water.
• Headaches: Because glycerol shifts fluid balance, it can occasionally cause pressure-related headaches in sensitive individuals.
• Laxative Effect: At very high doses (above 10g), glycerol can act as an osmotic laxative, drawing water into the colon.

Tip: If you are new to glycerol, start with the recommended 2,500mg dose to ensure your stomach handles the osmotic shift well before moving to higher performance doses.
