Legion Recharge is a specific post-workout supplement. It is a different product from Legion Pulse pre-workout, and its name does not describe a general recovery protocol. The version matters: current Recharge materials and some other Legion pages describe different ingredient combinations.
What the current Recharge page lists
The manufacturer’s current Recharge ingredient page declares these three headline ingredients per serving:
- 5 g micronized creatine monohydrate.
- 2.5 g myHMB, described as beta-hydroxy beta-methylbutyrate.
- 500 mg VitaCherry Sport tart cherry powder.
Together, those listed amounts total 8 g, matching the page’s active-ingredient headline. That arithmetic does not establish the complete scoop weight. Flavoring and other ingredients can contribute to a powder’s total weight, so use the actual package’s serving instructions rather than treating 8 g as a dosing direction.
Keep the ingredient forms with their quantities when comparing products. The stated 5 g is creatine monohydrate, and the branded myHMB amount should not be silently relabeled as another HMB form. A list of headline ingredients also does not replace the full Supplement Facts, other ingredients and warnings.
Why another Legion page describes a different formula
Legion’s separate creatine product FAQ describes Recharge as creatine plus L-carnitine L-tartrate and corosolic acid. That differs from the HMB and tart cherry combination on the current Recharge page.
Do not combine those descriptions into a five-ingredient formula. The disagreement also does not establish when a particular tub was manufactured or which version a retailer will supply. Compare the complete product name, flavor, serving size and rear label. If the seller’s listing and container disagree, ask for the label of the exact item being sold.
Ingredient research and product expectations
NIH’s exercise-supplement review describes evidence for creatine in repeated, high-intensity activity. It also explains that HMB studies use different populations and training protocols and have produced conflicting results. An ingredient’s research record therefore needs more context than its presence on a label.
These manufacturer disclosures do not by themselves demonstrate that the complete powder will eliminate soreness, prevent muscle loss or outperform plain creatine for every user. Nor does the phrase “post-workout” establish a narrow deadline after which a workout is wasted.
Check overlap before adding another powder
Record the creatine already present in any pre-workout, standalone creatine or recovery supplement. Different marketing categories do not prevent the ingredients from overlapping. Avoid treating another product as a necessary companion simply because it appears in a recovery shopping list.
For a useful comparison, write down the exact serving, disclosed ingredient amounts, full warnings and cost per labeled serving. Check the actual package for allergens. Personal suitability, especially with a medical condition or medication, is a question for a qualified clinician.
