Primordial Perfomance, among others, has been selling GlycoCarn (R), i.e. Glycine Propionyl-L-Carnitine, for some time now. Recently, Bloomer et.al. (Bloomer, 2010) published a study on the effects of 16 grams of maltodextrin (Placebo) or 16 grams of maltodextrin + 4.5 grams of GlycoCarn^® (GPLC), as well as three different commercially available pre-workout formulas (supplement 1 = Gaspari Nutrition SuperPump 250, 2 = BSN NO XPLODE, 3 = MuscleTech NanoVapor) on exercise performance and related blood parameters. The results (cf. table, below) are impressive, except from the bench press performance, where Gaspari Nutrition's SuperPump 250 won the race, nothing beat the 4.5g of GlycoCarn.
