HOW TO USE AMINOS+
HOW TO USE AMINOS+
AMINOS+ is a stacked, full-spectrum EAA & BCAA formula designed to push your physiological limits and multiple your muscle growth. To ensure you're getting the absolute maximum benefits from this formula, here are some guidelines for use!
Dose:
The Sweet Spot: 1 scoop (19.3g) mixed with 300 to 350ml water.
We recommend 1-2 servings per day.
The Intra Stack: 1 scoop of AMINOS+ paired with HYDRATE, CARB-DEX, or HYDROPRIME for the ultimate mid-session performance stack.
When:
Consume around your workout or whenever is most convenient.
While you can definitely drink this on your rest-days, for the best results you should drink this during or either side of your workout.
Tips:
Dial in Your Flavour: The tub says to mix with 300-250ml water. This is a rough guideline. If you want a punchier flavour, reduce the water - if you want something more chill, increase it.
The Foam: As with any amino acid product, there will be some foaming when you first mix it up. This will settle with time, or just sip through it like the tough cookie you are.
WHAT IS AMINOS+?
WHAT IS AMINOS+?
Honestly, most amino acid supplements are just glorified, overpriced flavored water. Companies dump a cheap, under-dosed proprietary blend of BCAAs into a tub and tell you it’ll build muscle, when in reality, giving your body only 3 of the essential amino acids to build muscle is like handing a builder some nails and no wood. It does fuck-all for actual muscle growth. You essentially spend your session sipping on something that tastes good but leaves your body scavenging its own tissue for the missing pieces.
AMINOS+ is the complete opposite - and your recovery will prove it.
We designed it to be a specifically engineered formula of essential building blocks and anabolic amplifiers for your muscles. Whether you're deep in a brutal deficit trying to hold onto every ounce of tissue, or you're bulking and need to force-feed your muscles mid-session without bloating your stomach, AMINOS+ is built to kickstart muscle protein synthesis and stop tissue breakdown in its tracks.
1. The Building Blocks - Full-Spectrum & Clinical
Most amino products throw a cheap 5g ratio of BCAAs at you and call it a day. We built a massive, dual-stage amino acid load. By combining a heavy dose of BCAAs with a full-spectrum EAA profile, we give your body the trigger to start muscle growth, and the raw materials to actually finish the job.
- 10.5g Total Aminos: We packed in a heavy 7g of instantised BCAAs at the proven 2:1:1 ratio (yielding a massive 3.5g of L-Leucine) to act as the immediate metabolic trigger that kickstarts muscle protein synthesis. Then, we follow it up with 3.5g of the remaining Essential Amino Acids. You get every single raw building block required to construct new muscle tissue without your body tearing down what you've already earned to make up the difference.
- Fast, Free-Form Digestion: Because these are free-form aminos, they lack the complex peptide bonds of whole food protein. They bypass your stomach's digestive process and hit your bloodstream quickly, providing a rapid spike in blood amino acid levels exactly when your muscles are screaming for them, with zero stomach discomfort.
2. The Anabolic Multiplier - Forced Muscle Growth
A massive dose of aminos is completely useless (and honestly, a waste of money) if they just float around in your bloodstream. We formulated AMINOS+ with an intelligent amplifier that acts like a crowbar to pry open your muscle cells and force the nutrients inside.
- 2g MyoVera™: This advanced Amylopectin (waxy maize) and Chromium Complex drives the massive rush of aminos out of your blood and directly into the primed muscle tissue, hyper-activating the mTOR pathway. It literally multiplies your body's natural muscle-building response compared to drinking aminos alone.
3. The UGLYFACE® No-BS Approach
We believe that if you're paying for a premium formula, your body needs to actually absorb it, and you should have genuine recovery support. We want you to wring out every last drop of growth and performance when using AMINOS+.
- 50mg AstraGin®: We added a clinical 50mg dose of this patented extract of Panax notoginseng and Astragalus membranaceus to radically increase the permeability of your intestinal wall. It ensures that every single gram of amino acid in this powerhouse formula actually makes it into your bloodstream efficiently and effectively. Absolutely nothing goes to waste.
- Fully Transparent Formula: No proprietary blends. No hidden fluff. Our dosing displays exactly what you're getting in every single scoop. This way, you know exactly what is fueling your body, recovering your muscle, and justifying your hard work in the gym.

ENHANCED MUSCLE RECOVERY
KICKSTART GROWTH AND PERFORMANCE
THE NEW STANDARD OF AMINOS
AMINOS+ is the gold standard of intra-workout recovery. While most amino products just dump a cheap, under-dosed ratio of BCAAs into a tub that leaves your body starving for the remaining building blocks, we designed a massive, full-spectrum EAA & BCAA formula. Enhanced with MyoVera™ and AstraGin®, AMINOS+ isn't a basic amino acid product... it actively forces muscle protein synthesis, halts tissue breakdown, and multiplies your anabolic response.
WHAT IS THE "+" IN AMINOS+?
AstraGin®is a patented, plant-based compound providing full-spectrum gut support through absorption, microbiota population, and a healthy intestinal wall environment.
MyoVera, a clinically studied ingredient that contains two powerful forms of chromium, supports amino acid uptake into muscles and amplifies muscle protein synthesis. By improving the efficiency in how muscles use protein, MyoVera supports better movement, stronger performance, and greater endurance.
WHO, HOW, AND WHEN
WHO IS AMINOS+ FOR
Designed for athletes who refuse to leave their recovery to chance and want to force muscle growth mid-session.
The Caloric Deficit Cutter:
You're deep in a cut, starving, and need to protect your hard-earned muscle from being cannibalized for energy. AMINOS+ acts as a defensive shield, giving your body the exact building blocks it needs so it doesn't tear down your existing muscle tissue.
The High-Volume Bulker:
You are in a surplus and need to force-feed your muscles to push the physiological ceiling of growth, but you can't stomach a heavy protein shake mid-workout without feeling sick. AMINOS+ delivers a massive anabolic signal with zero stomach bloat.
The "Stacker":
High-performers who want to take their intra-workout to the ultimate level by combining AMINOS+ with HYDRATE, CARB-DEX, or HYDROPRIME for maximum cellular volumization, endurance, and performance.
The Soreness Sufferer:
You push to failure but you're sick of crippling DOMS (Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness) ruining the rest of your week. You need that MyoVera™ and EAA combination to kickstart the repair process immediately so you can bounce back faster.
HOW DOES AMINOS+ FEEL
Like a literal lifeline to your starving muscles right when they need it most, without any heavy stomach bloat.
The Physical - Light & Fast:
Because these are free-form aminos, they lack the complex peptide bonds of intact protein and bypass digestion completely. You won't feel that heavy, sluggish, bloated feeling you get from drinking whey or eating food too close to a session. It goes down fast and feels as light as water.
The Mental - Delayed Fatigue:
You'll notice you don't hit that mental wall as quickly. By keeping blood amino acid levels incredibly high during your session, the BCAAs in this formula can help block fatigue-inducing signals from entering your brain, allowing you to maintain high energy and focus deep into a grueling two-hour session.
The Aftermath - Accelerated Recovery:
The most noticeable feeling happens after you leave the gym. Thanks to the MyoVera™ forcefully driving that 10.5g payload into your cells and the AstraGin® guaranteeing full absorption, your body enters a state of hyper-recovery. Expect significantly less muscle soreness the next day and a much faster bounce-back.
WHEN & HOW TO TAKE STIM V2
1 scoop is the sweet spot. Sip it while you work out or have around your training.
The Full AMINOS+ Experience:
Mix one scoop with 300-350ml of water. Drink it during your workout to halt muscle catabolism in its tracks, or smash it immediately post-workout to take advantage of the MyoVera™ insulin spike and kick-start the recovery process.
The Ultimate Intra-Workout Stack:
AMINOS+ was engineered to stack flawlessly with our other performance products. Combine one scoop of AMINOS+ with CARB-DEX or HYDRATE to create the ultimate mid-session cocktail for sustained energy, crazy pumps, and unmatched recovery.
The Reality Check:
AMINOS+ is a highly targeted anabolic tool, not a meal replacement. While it gives you the exact essential building blocks of protein and forcefully triggers muscle growth, your body still needs intact proteins and real whole foods to thrive. Use this formula to absolutely dominate your training window, and then go eat a real meal.

SERIOUS WHERE IT MATTERS
Instantised BCAAs so they mix better, taste better, and absorb better.
High-quality individually-sourced Essential Amino Acids because premium products demand quality ingredients.
MyoVera™ is a patented muscle & strength optimiser enhances the muscle's ability to use protein (like amino acids) efficiently.
AstraGin® significantly increases absorption of amino acids, so every gram of AMINOS+ can be used fully.

I loved the plain creatine but i am absolutely in love with the strawberry one! Getting my creatine grams in PLUS keeping hydrated because of the flavour - its a double win. I was worried it was going to be toooo sweet but its perfect. Love it!
Vascularity Potion of the Gods Your muscles drink this like a dehydrated orc. +500% Pump, +300% Vascularity, +150% Muscle Fullness for 90 minutes.
Almost quit my job until I bought the sleep & stress stack 🤣🤝 noticed a difference almost instantly, my sleep is usually good but helped with actually falling asleep faster and helped x10 with my stress levels at work, 10/10 recommend and now I’m scared to run out of my calm and turn into an angry gal
Really liking this product 😮💨 I’ve used some of the ingredients before separately, but never all in one powder, makes it so easy. No mixing heaps of products together And the pump is crazy💪🏽 Veins popping everywhere. Tastes amazing too.
I started with the protein, and it tastes great, which is a huge plus for me because I've tried some terrible-tasting protein powders in the past. The pre-workout products have been amazing as well. I was struggling to push myself through training sessions, but since using the Ugly Face pre-workout combo, I've been training harder than ever and consistently pushing past my limits. I'll definitely be placing my second order soon!
Stimulus Potion: Congressional Strength Your veins glow neon. +300% Stamina, +200% Focus, +100% Aggression. Side effect: you will explain your workout split to anyone within your vicinity.
I normally struggle with food noise, especially on a cut but melt has made all of the food noise go away for me as well as the hunger queues I would get super bad! I have to remember to eat sometimes because my body isn’t feeling like it’s starving even on less calories, feels like I’m not even in a deficit but I am. Also helped a lot with cravings. Just ordered more, recommend this product for sure!
My ex boyfriend brought me my first canister of Hydrate when I was bed-bound with a nasty case of the flu. Upon tasting it for the first time I felt the life begin to return to my body. Not only did it immediately make me physically feel better, but the tangy lemon & lime flavour quenched my thirst like nothing before. And I don’t say that lightly. Because my workout of choice is hot yoga, I have tried every single electrolyte formula out there.. because lord knows when you bust out a litre of sweat in an hour, water just doesn’t cut it. UF’s Hydrate is now my one and only elixir of choice. So good I nearly considered taking my ex back. I didn’t, but I am forever grateful that he introduced me to Ugly Face, because that’s a relationship that’s here to stay. Churrr
First time using the Uglyface Whey Protein Choc Block, very light and tasty mix, definitely keeps me fuelled after my workouts and comps!
Shaker of Swollen Destiny This mighty shaker has seen more gains than most heroes. It has survived 3am emergency shakes, post-leg day protein bombs, and the dreaded ‘I Forgot to Clean It’ curse.
Great intra-workout product. Perfect for pre and mid gym, running or even snowboarding session.
I took this with stim, hydrate and carb dex and ended up coming home with a 1st place flag from Deadly Dozen Oceania Championships
Instantly felt calmer especially at night. Only things that has worked
Love this stuff, have ordered this a few times now, does what it says and definitely keeps me hydrated throughout my workouts ! Will definitely be coming back for more. Thanks Cam and team at ugly face for supplying the goods 🫡💪🏽
Highly Branched Cyclic Dextrin Mana Potion Refills your glycogen bar to full. +Max Health, +Endurance, +‘I Can Do Another Set’ delusion for one hour.
Store owner replied: the review king 🙏🏼 glad you love it bro!
YOUR GO-TO SOURCE OF CARBS!!! Carb dec is great for those who don’t do breakfast but need carbs prior to early morning exercise. Very easy to take in and easy on the gut
I've been using Ugly Face Calm for a couple weeks and I really notice a difference in how I wind down before bed. It helps me relax, so I’m not lying there with my mind racing. I feel like I'm sleeping deeper and waking up more refreshed in the morning. My sleep score usually stays between 80-90%, but with this product, I still feel the benefits. It really supports my relaxation and helps my body recover better. Overall, I highly recommend it for anyone looking to improve their bedtime routine and sleep quality!
combine this with stim, pump and carb dex pre race and you'll win Deadly Dozen Oceania Championships
Top-tier comfort; elite-tier drip. Love these socks!
Can’t train without this because my workouts are just not the same. Gives me the juiciest pump 🍑
Looove the flavour! Great pump, and combined with stim doesn't make me crash or itch. Mixes great with water and tastes even better.
Turning 40 in a couple of weeks, I was looking for a thermogenic formula that was no nonsense, clean and effective without the crash or post workout jitters… After using Melt for a couple of weeks now I’ve found the product I was searching for! It’s a smooth transition from idle to furnace mode and it has helped me to achieve that pump in the gym. Cam and the team were extremely helpful and the customer service has been second to none. Melt is my new pre-workout go-to and I’ll be trying more ugly face products in future - Thank you!
So far everything feels good, communication has been on point, good deals, great flavours. Highly recommend.
I was skeptical trying this product as I had read reviews that said it was a touch salty. Having since tried the product, it does taste a touch salty, but honestly it’s actually pleasant! And I don’t even notice the saltiness. I use it during my mountain bike rides (at the Christchurch adventure park) and find it refreshing and hydrating. I have since replaced the vitafresh I used to use with this!
The pump I get from this is unmatched. Walking out of the gym feeling like I got a BBL. Makes me super focused when training so I’m able to smash out my workout 🏋️♀️
Amazing energy and pump
Elixir of the Hydrated Chad Drinking this makes your face 37% less likely to scare small children. Restores 50 Charisma and removes the ‘Crypt Ghoul’ debuff for 4 hours.
This stuff is legit. I’ve been taking the sleep stack a week and I’m shocked at how effective it is, have had the best sleep scores since starting to track my sleep in 2021.
Great boost
I have been running Turkestrone for the last two months and I’d like to say it’s helped me make some gains around the gym being I’ve increased my dumbbell press, squats and most heavy compound lifts paired with good nutrition and sleep.
Been using uglyface products for months now and it’s just brewed to perfection. Every training session is a hit and the better than the one before.
This shit does wonders for my workouts and running!
The only creatine I buy! It’s so fine and can put it in anything and you wouldn’t even know it’s there. On my non training days when I’m not having it with preworkout, I just put it in some juice and you can’t even taste or feel any texture!
Texture is fantastic, don't notice it, not gritty at all, no taste. Brilliant, thank you
Works perfectly
Tastes really good
Overnight oats just got an upgrade with Vanilla Ice Cream flavoured protein! Not sure if this or strawberry is better! ♥️
Amazing product!
This paired with PUMP V2 will leave you with the filthiest pumps you’ve ever seen. Put many mates onto this and they can say the same just simply an amazing product
Going to miss the Whey non isolate option but for the run was my go to for protein best flavours across the board!
