Our Story
A Fusion of Worlds: The Training Tonic Origin Story
Training Tonic began as a pact between three friends, each forged in a different crucible of performance. One, a master of leverage and timing from the world of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, understands the demands of relentless grappling. Another, an expert in business development and a practitioner of strength and symmetry from the bodybuilding scene, knows the science of muscle hypertrophy. The third, a cybersecurity expert and lifelong tech enthusiast, brings a mindset of systematic precision and a demand for verifiable proof. Despite our different paths, our knowledge overlapped in the realms of science and health, creating the perfect collaborative force to engineer a new standard in supplementation.
Cutting Through the Hype
We were tired of the hype. Our mission was to cut the BS and the pervasive "bro-science" that plagues the supplement industry. We set out to create a product built on transparency and clinical efficacy, not marketing gimmicks. This mission drove us through countless hours of research and development as we navigated the complexities of formulation, regulation, and business.
Powered by Matcha
We anchored our formula in this cornerstone, an ingredient with deep cultural roots in Japan and a centuries-long history of proven results. This connection is deeply personal for us, as our shared love for anime has been another lifelong bridge to Japanese culture. Matcha provides a clean, sustained energy and a state of "Zen power" that is simply unmatched. To validate our commitment to quality, our Original Performance Primer is NSF Sport Certified, ensuring that what's on the label is precisely what's in the bottle—nothing more, nothing less. This certification is our guarantee of purity and safety.
Beyond Pre-Workout
The result is a product that is engineered not just to ignite your training sessions but to sustain performance and accelerate recovery, making it an essential tool for intra- and post-workout nutrition as well. It’s a clean, five-ingredient formula designed for maximum impact. The entire ethos of Training Tonic, including our merchandise designs, is a tribute to the cultures and ideas that drive us.
A Trial by Fire
Our path from concept to reality was a trial by fire. After incorporating in July 2024, we targeted a launch to kick off the new year in January 2025. However, the realities of manufacturing, logistics, and unforeseen delays tested our resilience, pushing our timeline back a full six months. We wear these early struggles as a badge of honor; they represent our perseverance and our unwavering commitment to getting it right. In July 2025, we finally shipped our first units. We are Training Tonic, and we are here to deliver transparent, certified, and effective fuel for your performance.
