How exactly does FIT aid muscle health?

FIT promotes muscle protein synthesis for better growth and recovery; inhibits muscle breakdown, especially by reducing myostatin, which signals the body to lose unused muscle.

FIT Speeds up recovery, reducing post-workout fatigue by 47% and improving strength recovery by 103%; prevents muscle loss, especially during inactivity (e.g., injury, aging), and boosts mitochondrial function, improving energy production in muscle cells.

How exactly does FIT work?

Bioactive Precision Peptides™ (from fava beans) trigger muscle-building pathways.

Metabolic Matrix Technology enhances peptide efficiency with key nutrients:

 •NAD+ precursors (Nicotinamide Riboside) – Supports energy production and anti-aging.

 •Vitamin B6 & B12 – Essential for amino acid metabolism and nerve function.

 •Magnesium & Vitamin D – Critical for muscle contraction, recovery, and strength.

 •Green Coffee Bean Extract – Provides 100mg of caffeine to support energy and fat metabolism.

What makes FIT special?

 •Rapid absorption in a delicious, sugar-free, stick pack (not capsules).

 •Manufactured in the USA under NSF-certified standards.

 •No artificial colors, flavors, or controversial ingredients.

 •NSF product certification in progress, ensuring top-tier quality.

MAKE products contain the clinically effective dosage of bioactive peptides and other ingredients.

 •No “label fluff” (pointless trace amounts of ingredients just for marketing).

 •Example:

 •FIT contains 2.4 grams of PeptiStrong, which is the scientifically validated dose for muscle building.

Dosage matters: Some ingredients have different effects at different doses.

 •Example: Caffeine at 100mg vs. 400mg has different physiological effects.

        •MAKE products are formulated based on real science, not just random ingredient inclusion.

Can I take FIT with your other products?

Many of our products are designed to complement each other, and generally, you can use LEAN and FIT along with CALM. 

When is the optimal time to take Fit?

The optimal time to take FIT depends on your desired outcome. If you desire to mitigate loss of muscle mass, take it first thing in the morning. If you want improved exercise recovery, you might take it as soon as you finish a workout. If you desire increased muscular benefits from exercise, you might take it before working out. If you want enhanced muscular rejuvenation and replenishment, you can take it later in the day or evening.   

Is FIT Vegan?

No. The Vitamin D in FIT is derived from Lanolin, which is sourced from wool.

Would FIT break an intermittent fast?

Yes, FIT can break an intermittent fast.

Could you test positive on a drug test when taking FIT?

No, the Bioactive Precision Peptides™ found in FIT will not cause a positive drug test. However, FIT is not currently certified drug-free through programs such as NSF Certified for Sport or Informed Choice, and this should be considered before using if you participate in a sport that is tested for illicit drug use.

Can the peptides in FIT self-regulate the mTOR signaling pathway if someone is already over-activating?

The existing literature suggests that the peptides present in FIT (fava bean peptides) may help modulate or balance an overactive mTOR signaling pathway. However, further research is needed to fully validate these effects. If you have any concerns, it is advisable to consult with your healthcare professional.

Does FIT upregulate any molecule production? 

Our Bioactive Precision Peptides act as signaling molecules that typically up regulates or down regulates different cellular pathways within our bodies. When a pathway is up-regulated it typically makes more of certain molecules. Some examples of these molecules that have been shown to be up-regulated by our Bioactive Precision Peptides™ are ghrelin (LEAN), RPS6 phosphorylation (FIT).

Could I pair amino acids with FIT?

Supplementing FIT with amino acid or protein supplements would be advantageous. While FIT helps  to stimulate muscle growth and repair as well as muscle recovery, combining it with other amino acid and protein supplements can help provide the building blocks needed to build new muscle.

Be cautious about combining with other prework supplements as they often can contain caffeine. For any specific health concerns or questions regarding interactions with other medications you may be taking, we recommend consulting with your healthcare professional before using our products.

Could I pair Creatine with FIT?

Yes. Creatine boosts muscle and brain health and are safe to take together.
