Transparent Labs Intra is a premium, evidence-based intra-workout supplement featuring clinical doses of essential amino acids (EAAs) and synergistic ergogenic ingredients, such as L-citrulline and BetaPure™, to ignite muscle protein synthesis (MPS), enhance hydration, and increase nitric oxide production while you're pushing your limits in the gym.
Unlike many intra-workout supplements, this formula provides a precise ratio of all nine EAAs, including instantized 2:1:1 vegan branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs), along with patented elevATP® and Astragin™ to further augment exercise performance and muscle recovery.
It also comes in two refreshing flavors that are completely free of added sugar, artificial food dyes, artificial sweeteners, and fillers.
Key Features
- Clinically Dosed Intra-Workout Supplement: Each serving of Transparent Labs INTRA includes 6,700 mg of essential amino acids (with 2:1:1 vegan branched-chain amino acids) in a proper ratio to enhance muscle recovery and rapidly bolster muscle protein synthesis.
- Synergistic Formula with All 9 EAAs and Ergogenic Ingredients: In addition to essential amino acids, this formula provides evidence-based ergogenic ingredients like L-citrulline, elevATP®, BetaPure™, and coconut water powder to promote hydration, support blood flow, and decrease muscle fatigue during exercise.
- Pure, Quality Ingredients (No Fillers or Nonsense): Consistent with our core values, Transparent Labs INTRA is third-party tested for purity, potency, and authenticity. Unlike many intra-workout supplements, our formula is naturally flavored and sweetened with stevia to accommodate your healthy lifestyle; no artificial additives or sugar.
- Delicious and Natural Fruit Flavors: Choose from two tasty flavors, Strawberry Lemonade and Blue Raspberry, to satisfy your tastebuds during your workouts.

What is an Intra Workout? | Intra-workout supplements are intended to help sustain exercise performance while you're training. These formulas typically contain essential amino acids and other ergogenic ingredients that hydrate the body, promote muscle recovery, and enhance strength and endurance. |
Does an Intra Workout Give You Energy? | Technically, our intra-workout formula provides energy in the form of calories from essential amino acids, but that is not their primary ergogenic mechanism of action. However, other ingredients in this formula, like elevATP®, can increase cellular ATP production, conferring an "energy-boosting" effect. |
Who Should Take Intra Workout? | Intra-workout supplements are suitable for active individuals and athletes who want to maximize their performance in the gym and on the playing field. Our intra-workout formula is an exceptional alternative to traditional sugar-laden sports drinks that provide little else than electrolytes. |
Does this Product Contain Caffeine? | We didn't include caffeine in our intra-workout supplement since we offer several pre-workout supplements that contain caffeine. We wanted our pre-workout supplements to be compatible with this formula, and including caffeine would make this problematic due to ingredient overlap. |
What's the Difference Between EAAs and BCAAs? | Branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs) are a subgroup of three essential amino acids: L-leucine, L-isoleucine, and L-valine. While all EAAs are necessary for protein synthesis, the BCAAs are often considered the key regulators of this process [23]. As such, the BCAAs comprise a high proportion of the total EAA content needed to facilitate muscle growth, and our intra-workout supplement reflects this [24]. |
Essential Amino Acids (EAAs) | 6,700 mg | Of the 20 amino acids necessary for protein synthesis in humans, nine are nutritionally “essential” since the body cannot make them on its own. Hence, we must consume these nine amino acids in the diet for proper health, recovery, and performance. The nine EAAs in our intra-workout supplement include:
Taking essential amino acids before, during, and/or after exercise can help rapidly increase muscle protein synthesis with minimal digestive assistance since the amino acids are not bonded together like they are in protein [1]. In fact, one study found that a bolus of leucine-enriched EAAs after a workout stimulated protein synthesis as effectively as intact whey protein despite each supplement providing the same proportions of essential amino acids [2]. |
Taurine | 2,000 mg | Taurine is a non-proteinogenic amino acid often considered essential to pre-workout supplementation due to its diverse benefits for athletes and gym-goers. For one, taurine is a potent nootropic that promotes focus and attenuates brain cell inflammation and oxidative stress [5, 6]. Taurine can also enhance physical performance via increased blood flow to skeletal muscle tissue [7, 8]. Greater blood flow to muscle tissue encourages a favorable milieu for muscle function and recovery during training. Additionally, taurine supplementation has been shown to improve performance in endurance athletes [9]. |
BetaPure™ Betaine Anhydrous | 1,250 mg | Betaine, also referred to as trimethylglycine, is a derivative of endogenous choline metabolism, and it naturally occurs in plant species (especially sugar beets). In recent years, betaine has become a common ingredient in pre-workout supplements due to it's promise in enhancing athletic performance through diverse mechanisms [10, 11]. For one, betaine is an osmolytic compound that promotes cellular hydration, maintaining cellular volume and water balance during exercise. Betaine is also a crucial methyl donor for several biologically important molecules and a regulator of homocysteine levels, the latter of which is postulated to boost blood flow during training [12]. |
L-Tyrosine | 1,000 mg | L-tyrosine is a conditionally essential amino acid and precursor to dopamine and norepinephrine, two neurotransmitters that govern motivation and reward. Research shows that supplementing with L-tyrosine can significantly enhance cognitive performance and increase alertness, especially under acute stress (such as intense training) [13]. L-tyrosine has also been shown to improve “cognitive flexibility,” suggesting it can help us adapt to dynamic cognitive demands without letting extraneous thoughts undermine our focus [14]. |
Coconut Water Powder | 1,000 mg | Coconut (Cocos nucifera) water is one of the best natural sources of electrolytes and trace minerals, making it an excellent source of hydration. Coconut has been shown to provide a wealth of general health benefits, including, but not limited to [15]:
|
Electrolytes | 415 mg (combined) | Transparent Labs INTRA is rounded out with essential electrolytes for hydration and workout performance, including chelated magnesium and calcium, along with sodium and potassium (from Himalayan rock salt and potassium chloride, respectively). Electrolytes are lost through sweat during exercise, so replenishing them is a must for maintaining fluid balance in the body [16]. These minerals are also integral for muscle contraction, reducing muscle cramps, and the transmission of nerve impulses [17]. |
ElevATP® | 150 mg | ElevATP® is a clinically researched combination of “ancient peat” (fossilized plants) and apple skin extracts. Using innovative biotechnology, elevATP® stimulates your body’s endogenous production of adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the veritable energetic currency of cells. By boosting ATP production, ElevATP® can help promote athletic performance (e.g. max strength) and improve body composition [18, 19]. ElevATP® is also a fast-acting ATP booster that starts working from the very first dose [20]. |
Astragin™ | 50 mg | Astragin™ is a water-soluble extract of Panax notoginseng and Astragalus membranaceus, two promising adaptogenic herbs with longstanding medicinal use [21]. The constituents in these plants are suggested to selectively increase the absorption of molecules, such as amino acids, by enhancing intestinal permeability [22]. In other words, Astragin™ helps your body absorb the other ingredients in this intra-workout supplement, making the overall formula more effective. |
