We Know The
Four Things You're Thinking.

Every serious athlete has the same objections. Let's address all of them now.

01

"Is this just another overhyped supplement?"

The key study was a 10-week double-blind, placebo-controlled trial on 46 resistance-trained men — funded by WADA. Results: up to +2kg lean muscle and significant bench press 1RM increases vs placebo. Published in JISSN 2019. Not marketing copy — peer-reviewed science funded by the world's anti-doping authority.
02

"Will this get me banned from competition?"

No — and the story here is remarkable. WADA funded the study themselves. The results were so significant they recommended adding it to the prohibited list. They added it to their monitoring list in 2021 — but it remains legal in all sports including UFC, USADA-tested events, and Olympic sports. Every batch is 3rd party tested.
03

"Doesn't it mess with hormones?"

This is the key distinction. Ecdysterone activates the Akt/mTOR muscle protein synthesis pathway through a non-androgenic mechanism. It does not bind to androgen or estrogen receptors. No hormonal suppression. No PCT needed. No endocrine effects. Same results, clean pathway.
04

"How do I know what's actually in the capsule?"

The most important question. Independent analysis found many ecdysterone products contain less than 0.1% of the dose claimed on the label — up to 99.7% underdosed. The compound works. Most products don't contain it. Perform+ is 3rd party tested every batch with COA available on request.
The Numbers From The Research
Up to +2kg lean muscle in 10 weeks. Significant bench press strength gains. Funded and studied by WADA. Zero hormonal side effects.

These are results from a peer-reviewed, double-blind, placebo-controlled study on 46 resistance-trained men, published in JISSN 2019. WADA funded it. The results were significant enough they recommended ecdysterone be added to the prohibited list. It hasn't been — meaning you can still use it legally.

The Origin Story

The West Is 40 Years
Behind Soviet Sports Science.

Ecdysterone didn't start in a supplement company's lab. It started in classified Soviet research programs — kept secret for decades.

1970s–80s

The Soviet Secret Program

The Soviet Union ran classified state-sponsored programs searching for plant-based performance enhancers for their Olympic athletes, soldiers, and cosmonauts. Scientists were banned from publishing outside the USSR.
1970s–80s

"The Russian Secret"

Ecdysterone — specifically called "the Russian Secret" in sports science circles — was suspected to be used by Soviet Olympic athletes. While Western athletes were tested for steroids, Soviet athletes may have had a legal, plant-derived edge no one was testing for.
1970s–80s

The Iron Curtain Falls

When the Soviet Union collapsed, classified documents and defecting scientists brought decades of restricted research to Western researchers for the first time.
1970s–80s

WADA Investigates — And Confirms It

WADA funded a formal study. Results: up to +2kg lean muscle and significant strength gains in 10 weeks — zero hormonal side effects. Researchers recommended adding ecdysterone to the prohibited list. The irony: the compound Soviet athletes may have used for decades is still legal.
1970s–80s

Still Legal. Finally Available.

What Soviet athletes may have quietly used for decades is now available to anyone — at a verified clinical dose, 3rd party tested, with full label transparency.

The Mechanism

How It Actually
Builds Muscle.

β-Ecdysterone directly activates the cellular machinery responsible for building muscle — the same pathway anabolic compounds target, through a completely different non-hormonal entry point.

1
Binds to ERβ receptors
Binds to estrogen receptor beta — not androgen receptors. No androgenic side effects, still activates downstream anabolic signaling.
2
Activates PI3K/Akt/mTOR
The master switch for muscle protein synthesis. Triggers building of new muscle protein from amino acids.
3
Increases nitrogen retention
Higher nitrogen retention signals positive protein balance — the fundamental state of muscle growth.
4
Reduces protein breakdown
Anti-catabolic effects help preserve muscle built — critical during hard training blocks or calorie deficits.
WADA-Funded · 10-Week Double-Blind · n=46

Up to +2kg lean muscle
gained vs placebo.
Significant 1RM strength increase.

46 resistance-trained men. 10 weeks of strength training + ecdysterone vs placebo. Significantly greater lean muscle mass and bench press 1RM improvements. No androgenic or estrogenic side effects detected.

Common Questions

Everything You
Need to Know

The questions we get asked most about Perform+.

Will this get me banned from competition? +
No. β-Ecdysterone is not on the WADA prohibited list and is not banned by USADA, UFC, or any major sports organization. WADA added it to their monitoring list in 2021 — but that is distinct from the prohibited list. Every batch of Perform+ is 3rd party tested to confirm zero contamination with banned substances.
How long before I see results? +
The primary study ran 10 weeks and found up to +2kg lean muscle and significant strength improvements. Most users report noticeably faster recovery within 2 weeks, and visible strength improvements by weeks 4–6. The full anabolic effect builds over the study timeline — which is why the 60-cap option is the recommended first order.
Do I need to cycle it or do PCT? +
No. Because β-Ecdysterone is non-hormonal — it doesn't suppress your body's natural testosterone production or affect your endocrine system — there's no hormonal rebound to manage. Take it continuously or stop whenever you choose without side effects.
Is it safe for women? +
Yes — and female athletes may benefit more from Perform+ than most supplements because it's completely non-hormonal. No testosterone increase, no masculinizing effects, no hair loss, no acne, no voice changes, no menstrual disruption. The muscle protein synthesis pathway it activates works identically regardless of biological sex. Zero gender-specific side effects.
How does this compare to peptides or SARMs? +
Completely different category. Peptides and SARMs require injections, grey-market sourcing, and carry legal risk in competitive sports. Most peptide research in humans is limited. Ecdysterone has more published human research than most peptides being discussed in performance communities. Our position: if you haven't maxed out what a legal, oral, clinically-studied compound can do — try that first.
Why 60 caps over 30? +
The WADA study ran 10 weeks. A 30-cap bottle gives you 30 days. The 60-cap option covers 60 days, aligns with the research timeline, and saves you $13 vs two separate purchases ($98 vs $85). If you want to match the study conditions where +2kg lean muscle was achieved — give it the time the research used.
