Got Low T? A Review of T-Drive and Nitro Wood from Inno Supps

 




Q: I've got a few questions that hopefully you'd be willing to answer related to ectomorph bulking:

- I've lost my sex drive for the past couple of months. Today I got my lab result telling me that my testosterone level is 6 nmol/dL, whereas the normal range is supposed to be 60 nmol/dL or higher (SI units).

- From what I know, low testosterone levels are associated with loss of lean muscle mass and increased fat storage, causing the skinny fat look eventually. I've almost lost hope not to mention my lack of sleep as well as decreased energy level. This also causes me to be unable to workout to reach muscle fatigue, which is critical to stimulating muscle growth. Do you have any tips to alleviate this whole situation?

For your info, I stay away from junk foods and always incorporate healthy whole foods in my diet. Some of them are even known to boost testosterone levels (bananas, garlic, onions, red meats, skim milk, oats, A-Z multivitamin, almonds, olive oil, whey protein, spinach, peas, carrots, eggs, kiwis, apples, sweet potatoes).

Thanks in advance. All the best.


My Answer: Looks like you’ve got your diet in check, but one big red flag is your lack of sleep.  Low testosterone does not result in a lack of sleep but is a result of a lack of sleep.  Lack of restful deep sleep drives testosterone down. 

If you have low testosterone, then I suggest taking a testosterone boosting supplement.  Two supplements that I’ve been trying for the past month are T-Drive and Nitro Wood from the brand InnoSupps.

Full disclosure here: Inno Supps sent me these supplements to review in this blog post.

T-Drive boosts testosterone and lowers cortisol to improve muscle growth, while NitroWood improves blood flow, thereby increasing physical stamina in the gym.  While these supplements are effective on their own, they do complement each other.  Taking them concurrently maximizes their health and wellness effects. 

 



T-Drive

Testosterone is the engine that runs muscle growth, and cortisol is the brake. You can work out as hard and heavy as you'd like, but without the right ratio of testosterone to cortisol, you will not optimize your results. T-Drive supports this ratio in two ways: First, by increasing testosterone production to support muscle growth. Second, T-Drive decreases cortisol levels, so muscle gains are not lost to stress.

T-Drive naturally boosts your testosterone and lowers cortisol through a blend of the following herbs, minerals and vitamins:

Fenugreek Seed Extract: Rich in vitamins and minerals, this ancient herb increases libido, boost performance and lowers bad cholesterol.

Tribulus Whole Herb Extract: Increases libido and sexual performance, boost endurance and increases sperm production. It also works to increase strength and change your body composition.

Coleus Forskohlii Root Extract: Increases testosterone, burns fat and promotes lean muscle mass.

Epimedium Whole Herb Extract (horny goat weed): Like the name implies, this herbal extract enhances libido as well as help with mental and physical fatigue.

Zinc and Magnesium:   These minerals support testosterone production in your body.  Zinc and magnesium are usually taken at night before bed to promote better sleep.

Ashwagandha: The most powerful ingredient in this T-Drive formula is ashwagandha, an ayurvedic herb from India that not only supports testosterone production but decreases cortisol production in your body to help you relax.  So not only are you getting the muscle building effects of improved testosterone, but you're also getting the effects of not having as much cortisol eat up your muscle mass.  Ashwagandha calms the mind and is used to treat anxiety and trouble sleeping.

T-Drive uses the KSM-66 brand of ashwagandha, the most clinically studied ashwagandha on the market.  A 90-day pilot study was conducted on 46 male participants who were between 22-40 years of age with low sperm count.  At the end of the 90 days the men who received ashwagandha showed great improvement with 167% increase in sperm count and a 17% increase in serum testosterone levels.

In another eight-week research study, 57 males aged 18 to 50 with no prior weight training experience were randomly assigned to treatment or placebo groups. The treatment group took 300mg of ashwagandha root extract (KSM-66) twice daily, while the placebo group had a starch placebo. At the start of the trial, baseline measurements were taken, and subjects were put through eight weeks of resistance training before being assessed again.

Those who received ashwagandha exhibited considerably bigger improvements in muscle strength based on bench press and leg extension exercises, muscle size in the arms and chest, and higher testosterone levels than men who got the placebo. [1]

 



Nitro Wood

NitroWood maximizes your muscle gains by naturally increasing your nitric oxide levels.  Nitro Wood contains a blend of superfood extracts high in nitrates: pine bark extract, beet root powder, cinnamon bark powder, grape seed extract, garlic bulb extract and cayenne pepper fruit powder.

These nutrients trigger your body’s natural nitric oxide production to relax and expand your blood vessels, enhancing circulation and blood flow.  This will give your greater pumps in the gym.  Greater pump delivers more fuel, oxygen and nutrients to your muscles, thereby increasing their size.

 

Best Time & Way to Take T-Drive and Nitro Wood

It’s best to take T-Drive with food to eliminate any stomach discomfort. Since ashwagandha and magnesium have relaxing effects, it’s best to take it with your last meal of the day (dinner).

The best way to take Nitro Wood is with a meal to eliminate any headaches, since Nitro Wood contains a number of vasodilators.  It is also better to take Nitro Wood earlier in the day, since NitroWood does contain coffee bean extract and green tea leaf extract.

 

Overall, my experience with T-Drive and Nitro Wood has been good.  I found T-Drive’s ashwagandha help me get into a very deep sleep.  This alone has probably improved my hormone profile.  Nitro Wood has facilitated my pumps in the gym, and I’ve noticed greater hypertrophy of high rep muscle groups (i.e., quads).

 

Bottom line: If you want to maximize your muscle gains by naturally increasing testosterone and muscle pumps, then give T-Drive and Nitro Wood a try.
