BIXEPS UNDERLYING TECHNOLOGY
3 Main Mechanisms
MAGNETIC MITOHORMESIS
BIXEPS is tuned and optimised to activate the Mitochondria, the "powerhouse" in every cell.
EMPOWERING MUSCLE
Activated muscles adapt by producing more energy to perform longer and recover stronger.
UPREGULATING MYOKINES
Activated muscle release Myokines into our blood that regulate other bodily functions like our metabolism, regeneration, and immunity.
Muscle Myokine Medicine
Exercise as Medicine.
Myokines are released during exercise and regulate multiple aspects of our health. Research into the effects of Myokines continues to build.
Learn more about the various effects of Myokines below and how BIXEPS could help.
