ATTENTION All ATHLETES: Alberto Friedmann, Head Coach for US Martial Arts Team, endorses Torch. Today at 3:46pm
Alberto Friedmann is the Head Coach of the U.S. Martial Arts Team, a World Martial Arts Champion, and Medical Researcher. One of the top martial arts competitors and coaches in the world, Eighth-Degree Black Belt Grand Master Alberto Friedmann has won more awards than can be listed. Among the highlights of his career are induction into the Martial Arts Hall of Fame, 12 Gold Medals, one Silver Medal, and one Bronze Medal from the World Championships between 2000 and 2006. He was a Bronze Medalist at the 18th Maccabiah Games in Israel as part of Team USA, and Olympic Torch Bearer for the 2004 Olympic Games in Athens, Greece.

His accolades reach well beyond sports. Due to his own rare disorder, Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, a degenerative joint disease, Alberto Friedmann went into medical research where he has made a name for himself studying hypermobility syndromes, recovery from chronic stroke and recovery from brain injury. Among other work, he teaches course for the American College of Sports Medicine, works with athletes with disabilities, and helps stroke victims recover their walking ability and self-sufficiency. He is a member of the 2009 SIUE Alumni Hall of Fame.

“Before and after training at the Dojo, I use Torch and since it is a powder, it is very convenient to take to tournaments. Torch After-burn makes a huge difference with my muscle recovery. I have even had success with recovery from pulled muscles by using Torch After-burn”

The Board of Directors for the US Martial Arts Team has approved Torch supplement products for use by its athletes. Members of the team currently preparing for the World Champion-ships in Sydney, Australia have been recommended to use Torch during their practice.

“There are a lot of companies and products out there,” said Head Coach Alberto Friedmann. “But none of them work as well for our elite athletes as Torch.”

“If you only want run-of-the-mill supplementation, just about anything will do. But if you are trying to keep optimum health and elite perfor-mance, you need a product like Torch.”

What Makes Torch™ After-Burn Unique?

Optimizing your workout means more than just powering through a few more reps, running an extra mile or signing up for one more aerobics class. Your physical performance depends on the strength and proper function of your muscles, your energy levels and the ability of your body to recover after workouts, and science is instrumental in determining and optimizing those factors.

To boost performance and realize your maximum athletic potential, muscle must meet science at two critical points: Immediately before your workout, and immediately after.

For body builders and serious athletes looking to add a few extra reps, runners who want to bump those three-mile runs to five, mothers wanting to get back into shape after having a baby, and middle-aged men and women starting to feel their age, we’ve combined the science of nutrition with the needs of athletes for a powerful pre- and post-workout supplement regimen. Designed to be taken as a complete workout supplement system, the Torch™ sports nutrition line will help you optimize your workout, increase muscle growth and aid in muscle recovery.

Torch: After-Burn is for anyone who has physically exerted themselves and needs to restore electrolytes lost and give their body the protein boost it needs. Torch: After-Burn is formulated to increase muscle cell hydration, stimulate muscle growth, help reduce muscle soreness, and provide the body with a cardiovascular defense and energy boost.

Primary Benefits of Torch™ After-Burn*:
