An Inside Look at Our Commitment to Research

Research has always been the backbone of our philosophy. We're dedicated to developing the most effective supplements in the world. That's why we have always had a progressive product research and development philosophy. To date, we've funded 100 research studies, including recent research trials at Baylor University, the University of Nottingham, the University of Laval, St. Francis Xavier University, McMaster University, and the University of Toronto. We are committed to innovation and have developed some of the most groundbreaking sports supplements for building muscle, losing fat, and supporting fitness lifestyles – products that contribute to helping people reach their goals.

Research at the Highest Level

Innovative products such as the groundbreaking Cell-TechT Hardcore and Nitro-Tech® Hardcore families of products are the results of a tireless dedication to discovering and formulating new and novel ingredients and supplements through research. This research has resulted in the publication of more than 66 abstracts and more than 25 full papers in a variety of scientific journals, including International Journal of Sports Nutrition and Exercise Metabolism, Medicine and Science in Sports and Exercise, and Canadian Journal of Physiology and Pharmacology, to name a few.

To further our research, we have sought out and developed relationships with some of the world's top research scientists. All of this makes Team Absolute Fitness's commitment to research a leader within the industry.
