PR Lotion, Performance & Recovery Bicarb Sports Lotion, Informed Sport Certified, Natural Electrolyte Sodium Bicarbonate (300 g Bottle)

I'll be honest — when I first heard about a lotion that delivers sodium bicarbonate through your skin to buffer lactic acid and improve performance, every skeptical bone in my body lit up. It sounded like the kind of thing you'd see in a late-night infomercial sandwiched between a miracle blender and an ab belt. Rub a lotion on your legs and magically perform better? Sure. I almost scrolled right past it. But the peer-reviewed research caught my attention, a few pro cyclists and triathletes I follow swore by it, and I figured worst case I'd have slightly moisturized calves. So I gave Amp Human PR Lotion a shot. That was six months ago, and I haven't trained or raced without it since. The difference in my legs is unmistakable. I'm a competitive cyclist and recreational runner, and the sensation I can best describe is that the burn takes longer to arrive. On hard interval days where I'm pushing threshold and above, my legs feel like they have a deeper well to draw from before that familiar acidic searing sets in. The first time I noticed it was during a Tuesday night crit — I was on the third hard dig in a row and realized my legs still felt like they were on the first. I didn't suddenly become a superhuman. I just had more in the tank when it mattered most, and I could go harder for longer before my body started screaming at me to stop. Recovery has been noticeably improved. This is where PR Lotion has earned its permanent spot in my gear bag. My legs feel fresher the morning after hard efforts. That deep, heavy, dead-leg feeling I used to drag around for a day or two after intense sessions has been significantly reduced. I'm not bouncing out of bed feeling like I didn't ride, but the recovery timeline has compressed in a way that's allowed me to stack quality training days closer together without feeling wrecked. Over weeks and months, that compounds into real fitness gains. Application is simple and actually pleasant. Squeeze it out, rub it into the working muscles about fifteen minutes before your session, and go. The consistency is smooth and absorbs quickly without leaving a greasy or sticky residue. It doesn't stain kit, it doesn't smell medicinal or overpowering — it's just a clean, light lotion that disappears into your skin. I apply it to my quads, hamstrings, and calves before every ride, and to my calves and glutes before runs. The whole process takes about two minutes and has become as routine as filling my water bottles. The science is what sold me. This isn't some proprietary mystery blend hiding behind marketing jargon. Sodium bicarbonate as a performance buffer has decades of research behind it. The problem was always delivery — oral bicarb loading works but comes with brutal GI distress that makes it impractical for most athletes. Amp Human's transdermal approach bypasses the gut entirely and delivers it directly to the muscles that need it. No stomach cramps, no emergency bathroom stops, no nausea. Just the performance benefit without the misery. That's an elegant solution to a well-documented problem. It works across disciplines. I've used it for road cycling, gravel races, running, and even high-intensity gym sessions. The benefit shows up anywhere sustained muscular effort and acid accumulation are limiting factors. A buddy of mine who does CrossFit borrowed a tube, used it before a competition, and texted me that night asking where to buy a case of it. It's not discipline-specific — it's physiology-specific, and that means it works for basically any athlete pushing hard. Is it a miracle? No. Is it a legitimate edge? Absolutely. PR Lotion isn't going to turn a couch potato into a podium finisher. But for anyone who trains seriously and is looking for that extra few percent — the kind of marginal gain that separates a good day from a great one — this delivers in a way that very few legal, accessible products can. It's become as essential to my pre-ride routine as chamois cream and a properly inflated tire. Bottom line: I went in as a skeptic and came out as an evangelist. Amp Human PR Lotion works. It's backed by real science, trusted by professional athletes across multiple sports, and after six months of consistent use I can say without reservation that it has made a measurable difference in both my performance and my recovery. If you're an athlete who takes training seriously, you owe it to yourself to try this. Your legs will thank you.

I cant express how much this HELPED with my physical fitness test!!! I applied it an hour before my work out and lasting my hour workout session. I typically get that “tierd” feeling in my lats when I do pull ups but i felt NO soreness in my lats. I have NEVER maxed out my pull ups until today. For my run, my calves get tight and sore along with my shins while running….did not feel them ONCE! It is pretty thick lotion and has a minty suddle smell to it but that doesnt bother me.

Works great except it’s overly expensive for the amount you need. Also the packaging is abysmal, it leaks everywhere and you lose product or spill everywhere. Luckily my gym bag is already a mess otherwise it’d be pretty terrible.

Will use in during outdoor track season.. have used this product during cross country season and it helps reduce lactic buildup ..

Awesome lotion for recovery and during exercise.

I have used it for 6 workouts now and love it. It noticeably reduces muscle fatigue. First time I used it I didn’t think I got very good workout because I didn’t feel completely wasted after, but the next morning proved otherwise, nicely sore. It’s been the same for every workout. One of the most effective workout products I’ve ever used.

I've been using this performance lotion for a while now, hoping to see some noticeable gains in my workouts. Unfortunately, I haven't really felt a significant difference in my performance. The improvements, if any, have been very minimal. I was expecting a bit more of a boost considering the price. Maybe it works better for other people, but for me, it just didn't deliver the results I was looking for.

What an amazing product it keeps muscle fatigue in check with no greasy feel or medicine odor the only problem is the price it’s very high or should I say expensive of your gonna rely on it my advice use it only on full workout day or when you upping the weights until you get back on the comfort zone

Very interesting product !! Speeded up my recovery !!

なんかわかんないけど効果あるとおもいます。

Ich habe probier viel mal, ??? , Konte sein das die erste mal, ich war so motivier zu benutzen, das mit mein maximal gewicht und wiederholungen, konte 3 oder 4 extra wiederholungen machen. nach ca. eine monate benutz, ich habe nicht die gleich effekt. Ich habe wieder tranier viel mal, ohne benutz die produkt und ich schaffe dieser wiedaholung auch ohne. Das gefühle in mein korpe ist so wie wenn du benutz WICK Vaporub . oder Menthol. Ist ein frisch gefühle sooooo ich bin nicht so sicher ob ist efektiv. ich würde nicht kaufen nochmal. aber ist auch nicht negativ. Einfach probier vilecht funktionier für euch.

Very good product. Did a lacate threshold test to see actual impact. Theoretically added 20w to my LT2 when doing the same test 2 days apart. Can really feel the difference on short intense efforts.

I’m a fan, works for me. You’ll notice the difference on drags & climbs and for eg your 3rd ride of the week. Far less fatigue in legs, increased power, quicker to warm up on rides also. Quite impressive.
