We have
developed our range of performance nutrition products
through a need to offer the highest standard of support to the
athletes we work with.
We critically analyse every product on the market and take on
board their best features – and then improve upon them – every
little detail - without compromise. We ask our clients which
types of products they prefer to use and continually develop and
perfect our range.

Mountain Biking is as gruelling an endurance sport as any other. |
|
TORQ’s products are used by elite-level Cross Country racers,
Downhillers and 24-hour soloists (yes, people who ride their bikes for
24 hours without stopping) and we sponsor
and manage our own race team.
You don’t have to be a Mountain Biker to benefit from TORQ though. Our
products are used extensively in Triathlon and Road Racing. TORQ
products have been up Everest and to the North Pole. Fire-fighters and
Premiership Football Clubs use them. The principles of sports nutrition
hold true for any branch of endurance sport – if you have an endurance
goal, TORQ is there to help you achieve it.
|
|
| We have uncompromising standards, yet TORQ also has a conscience. |
|
We absolutely refuse to use ingredients that are not derived
from a NATURAL source, or don’t naturally occur within the
human body. We are firmly of the opinion that artificial
ingredients like sweeteners offer no performance advantage,
can cause stomach discomfort and could potentially harm your
health long term. We see no point in including them.
Advanced compounds like D-Ribose, HMB and L-Glutamine
naturally occur within the human body and represent some of
the most potent supplements available on the market today,
so why use anything artificial? Every ingredient we use is
included to the levels recommended by available research. We
do not cut corners and do not accept compromise. |
 |
TORQ don’t just stock their own products though; we will get
behind and support any product we believe to be of benefit
to the endurance athlete. This is why we stock Powertap for
instance, a remarkable bicycle hub that provides power
(wattage) feedback to the cyclist. A technology TORQ have
supported since its conception and one that is now rapidly
becoming ‘standard kit issue’ to any serious competitive
cyclist.
| TORQ products
are tested for prohibited substances |
|
|
TORQ products
are tested under ISO17025 by an independent laboratory for
the presence of prohibited substances. All of our suppliers
are intensively audited and we only source the purest and
most natural ingredients, so we think it would be impossible
for our products to become contaminated. |
However, the sports supplement industry has received
some bad press over the last few years, where a
number of supplements were found to contain
prohibited substances. These could have resulted in
an athlete testing positive in a doping test -
ending their career. The only way to legally offer
absolute assurance that a product does not contain
banned substances is to have them tested at a
registered laboratory, so that's what we do.
