Axe & Sledge has added another makeover to their lineup. This time the brand has given a makeover to one of their oldest products, Ignition Switch. Ignition Switch has always been the "budget friendly" option from Axe & Sledge. This will remain true, but you are now going to get more bang for your budget buck.

Axe & Sledge has reformulated many of their products in recent memory to stay on top of fast changing trends and new ingredients. Dosing requirements by consumers has been more in-tune with science and therefore brands, and Axe & Sledge, are evolving.

Axe & Sledge Ignition Switch V2

Axe & Sledge has updated and upgraded their Ignition Switch formula. We will highlight some of the changes in this breakdown but also give you an idea of what each ingredient is meant to do.

L-Citrulline – 4g

One change right off the bat is an improvement to the L-Citrulline dosage. The previous version had 2.5g per serving while Ignition Switch V2 increases the dosage to 4g. This falls within the 3-5g range where you can expect to see performance benefits.

Citrulline is the precursor to arginine. This means the body converts Citrulline into Arginine which increases Nitric Oxide and thus improves blood flow. This elevates performance and pumps and aids in recovery.

Beta-Alanine – 3,400mg

Another big improvement was increasing Beta-Alanine from 800mg to 3,400mg. This is an improvement of over 400%. This new dosing meets the 3.2g per day requirements.

Beta-Alanine buffers lactic acid. It can help improve muscular endurance and alleviate muscle soreness called DOMS (delayed onset muscle soreness).

Beta-Alanine is also the ingredient that causes users to feel tingly or itchy.

L-Tyrosine – 1,000mg

Tyrosine is new to Ignition Switch V2. This non-essential amino acid can improve athletic performance through improving cognition and focus. Tyrosine has been used more and more in pre-workouts due to the effectiveness of the ingredient.

Choline Bitartrate – 500mg

On the subject of cognition, 500mg of Choline Bitartrate is used. The previous version used 75mg. This is over 500% more per serving.

Choline is a precursor to acetylcholine, a key neurotransmitter involved in memory, focus, and learning. We expect to see Choline Bitartrate dosed between 500mg and 1000mg per day. We get that here.

Caffeine Anhydrous – 150mg

Caffeine Anhydrous is used at the same 150mg amount. This is a great starter amount for many people and good for people who are sensitive to caffeine and stimulants. The difference in this formula is users are not going to get the 50mg of DiCaffeine Malate but we don’t think it is needed.

Theobromine – 50mg

Theobromine is a metabolite of caffeine with stimulant like properties. This is new to the formula and may pair well with caffeine to provide more of an energy boost, mental alertness and increased body temperature.

Axe & Sledge are launching The Grind V2 in four flavors: Juicy Nectar, Orange Sherbert, Deadlifts & Gummy Bears and Sour Electric Lime.

Final Takeaway on Axe & Sledge Ignition Switch V2

Finally. I have said this publicly and to the team at Axe & Sledge. This was the one product that I was not a fan of. I love the updates and the upgrade here. It covers the bases you need to improve a workout with blood flow (Citrulline), energy (caffeine/Theobromine), cognition (Tyrosine, Choline Bitartrate), and endurance (Beta-Alanine). Nice job here for Axe & Sledge and keeping it a true 30-serving is smart. This will be available in two flavors: Classic Punch and Fresh Lemonade.
