It's Comforting To Know It's Safe

"As a parent, you want to support your growing child's athletic and training goals. The challenge is knowing what's safe for your child. Walk into any grocery store, and the shelves are full of nutritional supplements and protein powders. It's comforting to know the school administrators have given my boys an age-appropriate nutritional product, Critical Reload."

Critical Reload Is 'Simplicity'

"The Critical Reload system is nothing but simplicity. My kids come on campus at 7:30 in the morning, and they don't leave until 6:00 in the evening. They can't just eat lunch, and that be it. Critical Reload ensures they get the calories they need. Plus, it tastes great. Our kids love it! I tell coaches who ask about Critical Reload there is no reason not to do it!"

We've Seen Physical Changes

"Our kids would work out hard for many years, but we didn't see results. Reviewing their diet and nutrition, we discovered they weren't eating right in the mornings or after a workout. Once we started Critical Reload, our athletes could recover faster and go harder more often. Most exciting is watching our 9th graders from where they were 4-years ago and the physical changes they show today. That's a testament to their hard work, good strength training, and Critical Reload."

It Helped Me Get Stronger and Faster

“I've taken Critical Reload since 8th grade and I love the taste. Chocolate is my favorite! Critical Reload and my strength have taught me if you workout and don’t have the things to recover, you’re wasting your body away. Critical Reload has helped me grow stronger, faster, and bigger and that’s obviously helped me on the football field.”
