EVP AQ: 5 things you need to know about liquid glycerol

EVP AQ: 5 dingen die je moet weten over vloeibare glycerol

Most pre-workouts are all about caffeine. Evogen EVP AQ takes a different route. No powder. No caffeine on the label. Just liquid glycerol. Developed by Hany Rambod, the coach with 25 Olympia titles to his name. Here are the 5 things you need to know before it goes into your shaker.

1. What is glycerol?

Glycerol is a substance that binds water. That's why it's a staple ingredient in pump formulas. EVP AQ contains 20 g of plant-based glycerol (GlycoSpan™) per serving. Important: glycerol works together with water. So always drink enough with it.

2. Liquid or powder: what's the difference?

Glycerol is naturally a liquid. To turn it into a powder, manufacturers have to bind it to a carrier, usually silica. So a scoop of powder contains only part real glycerol. EVP AQ skips that step. Liquid, flavourless and ready to mix into water or your pre-workout. No clumps, no hassle.

3. What exactly is in it?

Per 30 ml serving (2 tablespoons):

  • 20 g plant-based glycerol (GlycoSpan™)
  • 2.5 g betaine
  • 250 mg vitamin C
  • 50 mg S7® (plant-based blend including green coffee bean, green tea and turmeric extract)
  • 90 kcal

One 473 ml bottle gives you 16 servings. Vitamin C contributes to maintain the normal function of the immune system during and after intense physical exercise. This effect is obtained with a daily intake of 200 mg vitamin C in addition to the recommended daily intake; one serving of EVP AQ contains 250 mg.

4. No caffeine on the label

The EVP AQ label lists no caffeine. So you decide if and how much stim you add. Good to know: the S7® blend contains green coffee bean and green tea extract, among others. Sensitive to these ingredients? Read the label carefully.

5. Stacking with your other supplements

EVP AQ is flavourless, so it mixes easily into your existing routine:

  • With stim: EVP-Xtreme N.O. contains 200 mg caffeine per scoop. Mix in EVP AQ for one complete pre-workout shake.
  • Stim-free: EVP-3D is caffeine-free. Ideal if you train in the evening.
  • During your workout: Amino K.E.M. delivers 8,500 mg of EAAs/BCAAs per serving, with all 9 essential amino acids.

How to use EVP AQ

Take 1 serving (2 tablespoons, 30 ml) with water or another drink before training. New to glycerol? Start with half a serving (1 tablespoon). Drink enough water with it. Taking medication, have a medical condition, pregnant or breastfeeding? Consult your doctor first.
