Omega Sports ONE: Optimal Nutrition Enhancement FAQ
Thanks to DS...I kind of borrowed their outline for this FAQ.
Q. How many servings per bottle of Omega ONE?
A. 60. If used at full dosing, 30.Q. How long will Omega ONE last?
A. Considering if you train 5 days per week and use the double dosing, it will last a full 6 weeks or about 45 days. For most people, it will last roughly 60 days.Q. When should ONE be taken?
A. 20-30 minutes before training. We also recommend taking it immediately after training for maximum benefits, although this is absolutely not necessary.Q. Should ONE be taken on non-training days?
A. No, that is not necessary.Q. Does ONE need to be cycled?
A. No. It can be taken indefinitely.Q. Should I stack ONE with anything?
A. We designed ONE to be stacked with your protein of choice for maximum effects. A quality protein source should always be utilized before and after working out. ONE is not a substitute for that. Instead, combining ONE with your protein should give you 1+1=3 effects.Q. Why doesn't ONE include protein already?
A. Primary reason is cost. Secondary is most are very particular about their protein and we feel most users would rather use their already favorite blend in addition to ONE. We feel leaving this up to the consumer is the best option available. Besides, no other BCAA based products are 'complete' in this area to begin with.Q. How would this stack up against products such as Ice, Xtend and Purple Wraath?
A. Each one of those products are exceptional choices for a BCAA based pre/post workout supplement. However, ONE is different in that it contains a very specialized, low-glycemic carb source as well as a very high does of the primary anabolic amino acid, Leucine. We feel that ONE represents the most complete product for the price available.Q. I thought ONE was supposed to be a more affordable alternative to the before-mentioned products. What gives?
A. When you look at the recommended dosing for each product, they all come out to cost between $1.20 and $2.00 per serving at max dosing, or the dose that 90% of people take. ONE is not meant to be a price leader in the category, nor is it supposed to be the most expensive. We do feel it is a great deal considering everything you are getting for your money.Q. What is Hydrolyzed Rice Syrup and why is it used instead of Maltodextrin or Dextrose?
A. HRS is made up of both short and long chain carbohydrates, so it has the advantages of BOTH simple and complex carb sources. It enters the bloodstream faster than glucose, but because of the different chain lengths it doesn't spike insulin like maltodextrin or dextrose.Q. So what exactly is this super-duper formula?
The company who makes this product primarily markets it as an oral re-hydration solution for people with dehydration from acute or chronic diarrhea. They often can't absorb any food at all, and glucose-based drinks aren't effective or just make them worse. The rice-based carb, however, gets rapidly absorbed and doesn't seem to have the side effects (gas, bloating, abdominal discomfort) of the glucose drinks. This is significant for athletes as well.
HRS works better than any other carb source we know of to shuttle nutrients into the muscle cells without insulin spikes, bloat or simple sugars. Welcome to "force feeding" your muscles!
We are just scratching the surface on this compound and feel it is going to be the next big thing in sports supplement nutrition!
A. Per 2 scoops, ONE contains:Q. Why is the product formula so "simple"? I was expecting to see 32 ingredients in a proprietary blend
24 Grams HRS
10 Grams Leucine
2 Grams Glutamine AKG
1 Gram KIC Calcium
1 Gram L-Phenylalanine
A. The truth is, in your pre and post workout nutrition, less is more and simple is best. Overwhelming research shows that the ingredients that compose ONE are key in building muscle. We did not spike this with worthless items to get you to "feel" it working. You'll know it is working by the way you look in the mirror!Q. So are you saying ONE is going to give me steroid like gains?
A. No, you stupid noob. But ONE will lead to greater recovery, greater hydration, greater increases in strength, stamina and lean muscle mass.Q. Yeah, but other products claim they can genetically alter my muscles. Can your precious ONE do that, huh?
A. No, but we can help you improve your physique at half the cost. You decide for yourself.Q. Can I continue to drink alcohol whilst on ONE?
A. Do one or the other, chief. Drinking is not condusive to improving your physique.Q. Sometimes I partake in illicit drugs. Can I use ONE?
A. No. Go back and smoke your doobie, hippy.Q. I am on prescription medications. Can I use ONE?
A. As always, check with your doctor before taking any supplement.Q. I understand HRS forces more nutrients into the blood stream and muscles faster and more efficiently, but can I also use other products in conjunction with ONE such as Anabolic Pump?
A. Yes. We feel the stack of ONE + Anabolic Pump would be a tremendous tandem.Q. When will ONE be available at the Bodybuilding.com Cyberstore?
A. It should be in stock no later than March 7th.Q. I love you Omega Sports! Can I buy stock in your company?
A. No, but you can send me cash directly. Or name your first child Omega...whatever works for you.

Looks good! I like how there is no prop blend, kudos to Omega for that! I also like to see the 10 grams of leucine and the gram of KIC calcium. I've never read about HRS, but I'm interested to see some logs get going.

Matpal,
Would you suggest using this pre-workout or post? Or 1 scoop pre- and 1 scoop post? At the moment it looks like I can do 2 scoops ONE 3x per week.
I'm thinking of doing:
45 min Pre - 1 Scoop Whey + 10 g Bulk Leucine
25-30 min Post - 2 Scoops ONE + 1 Scoop ErgoPharm GF-Pro (and a simple 50 g carbs+ 25 g protein shake 15 min before I drink my ONE + GF-Pro)
Thanks.

ONE is now available in the bb.com cyberstore!
http://www.bodybuilding.com/store/omega/one.html
Been looking forward to trying this product since hearing about it. Two questions, would it be beneficial to add some WMS or is the HRS content plenty? Also would it be better to do one serving pre and one post, or both post-workout?
