Question 1

Are AlphaFit Supplements HASTA certified?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Every AlphaFit product is HASTA certified, meaning each batch is independently tested and verified to be free from all WADA banned substances. This makes AlphaFit supplements safe for competitive athletes subject to drug testing.

Question 2

What does HASTA certification mean?

Accepted Answer

HASTA (Human and Supplement Testing Australia) is an independent certification program that tests sports supplements for all substances prohibited by WADA (World Anti-Doping Agency). Every batch of AlphaFit supplements is HASTA certified, meaning athletes subject to drug testing can use them with confidence that the product contains exactly what is on the label and nothing more.

Question 3

Where are AlphaFit Supplements made?

Accepted Answer

AlphaFit Supplements are Australian made and owned, formulated in-house and produced in Queensland, Australia.

Question 4

Does AlphaFit use proprietary blends?

Accepted Answer

No. AlphaFit Supplements uses fully transparent labels with no proprietary blends. Every ingredient and its exact dose is clearly listed on the label.

Question 5

How much does shipping cost?

Accepted Answer

AlphaFit Supplements offers free shipping Australia-wide on orders over $50. Orders under $50 incur a flat rate shipping fee of $9.95.

Question 6

How long does shipping take?

Accepted Answer

All orders are processed and dispatched within 24 hours. Standard delivery takes 3–5 business days for metro areas and 5–7 business days for regional areas within Australia.

Question 7

Can I return AlphaFit Supplements?

Accepted Answer

Change of mind returns are accepted within 30 days of purchase if the product is sealed, unused, and in original packaging. Opened supplements cannot be returned due to health and safety regulations. Approved returns receive store credit valid for 12 months.

Question 8

When should I take whey protein?

Accepted Answer

Most athletes take whey protein within 30 minutes after training to maximise recovery and muscle growth. For weight loss, using it as a protein-rich snack between meals can help curb appetite and reduce calorie intake. For building muscle and strength, post-workout is best to support recovery and stimulate muscle growth. It can also be taken any time of day to help meet your daily protein target.

Question 9

What is the difference between WPI and WPC in Fuelled Whey Protein?

Accepted Answer

WPI (Whey Protein Isolate) is rapidly absorbed and very low in carbs and fats — ideal after training. WPC (Whey Protein Concentrate) digests slightly slower with a creamier texture. Fuelled Whey Protein blends both to deliver fast absorption and smooth texture.

Question 10

Can I cook with whey protein?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Whey protein works well in recipes like pancakes, muffins, and oats. When heated, whey protein coagulates similarly to an egg — this changes the texture but not the nutritional value. For best results, avoid cooking at very high temperatures for extended periods, or stir it in after cooking to keep the texture smooth.

Question 11

Is Fuelled Plant Protein a complete protein?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Fuelled Plant Protein provides all nine essential amino acids using a tri-source blend of pea, rice, and faba bean protein, making it comparable to whey protein in effectiveness.

Question 12

Does plant protein cause bloating?

Accepted Answer

Some people experience bloating with plant proteins as certain plant fibres can be harder to digest. AlphaFit Fuelled Plant Protein is formulated with digestive enzymes to support absorption and reduce discomfort. If you are new to plant protein and notice bloating, try starting with half a serve and gradually increase as your body adapts. Most people find any bloating improves as their system adjusts.

Question 13

What is the difference between collagen protein and whey protein?

Accepted Answer

Whey protein is rich in BCAAs and is primarily used to maximise muscle protein synthesis after training. Collagen protein supports tendons, ligaments, joints, and connective tissue — the structures that allow you to train hard consistently. AlphaFit Fuelled Collagen Protein Water is designed to complement whey protein, not replace it, particularly for athletes with high training loads.

Question 14

What is Creapure® creatine?

Accepted Answer

Creapure® is manufactured in Germany and is widely recognised as the purest form of creatine monohydrate available. AlphaFit uses Creapure® creatine, which is also HASTA certified and batch tested for purity.

Question 15

Will creatine make me bloated?

Accepted Answer

Creatine pulls water into your muscle cells, not under your skin. This increases muscle hydration, making muscles look and feel fuller. Some people notice a small increase on the scales in the first week — this is not bloating or fat gain, it is simply your muscles becoming better hydrated. Once fully saturated, this effect levels out and stabilises.

Question 16

How does creatine work?

Accepted Answer

Creatine works by increasing your muscles' stores of phosphocreatine, a high-energy compound that helps your body quickly regenerate ATP — the main energy currency of your cells. During high-intensity exercise, ATP is broken down rapidly. By boosting phosphocreatine levels, creatine allows you to regenerate ATP faster, so you can perform more reps, sprint harder, and sustain explosive movements for longer.

Question 17

Do I need to load creatine?

Accepted Answer

A loading phase is not essential but can help you experience the benefits faster. Loading involves taking 20g of creatine per day split into 4 x 5g servings for 5–7 days to rapidly saturate your muscles, then switching to a maintenance dose of 3–5g per day. Without loading, taking 3–5g daily will achieve the same result over around 3–4 weeks.

Question 18

When is the best time to take creatine?

Accepted Answer

Creatine timing is flexible — consistent daily intake is what matters most. It can be taken before, during, or after training, or any time of day that suits your routine.

Question 19

Can women take creatine?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Creatine benefits women just as much as men, supporting strength, power, recovery, and lean muscle. It is also being researched for cognitive benefits including brain health and mood.

Question 20

What is the difference between stim and stim-free pre-workout?

Accepted Answer

Stim pre-workout contains caffeine — AlphaFit Charged Stim uses 160mg of natural caffeine from green coffee bean extract for energy and focus. Stim-free contains no caffeine, instead using citrulline, beta-alanine, and ginseng to support blood flow, endurance, and focus without stimulants. Stim-free is ideal for evening training or anyone sensitive to caffeine.

Question 21

How much caffeine is in Charged Pre-Workout?

Accepted Answer

The Stim version contains 160mg of natural caffeine from green coffee bean extract per serve — equivalent to about 1.5–2 cups of coffee. A completely caffeine-free Stim-Free version is also available.

Question 22

Is it normal to feel tingles after taking pre-workout?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The tingling sensation is called paraesthesia and comes from the ingredient beta-alanine. It is completely harmless and happens when beta-alanine interacts with nerve receptors in the skin. The tingles fade as your body adjusts. If uncomfortable, start with half a serve and gradually increase to a full scoop.

Question 23

What are EAAs and how are they different from BCAAs?

Accepted Answer

EAAs are the nine essential amino acids your body cannot produce on its own. BCAAs are just three of those nine. EAAs are more complete and effective for recovery and preventing muscle breakdown than BCAAs alone.

Question 24

How does Primed EAA support hydration?

Accepted Answer

Primed EAA combines electrolytes — sodium, potassium, magnesium, and calcium — with all nine essential amino acids to deliver hydration and muscle support in one formula. The electrolytes replace minerals lost in sweat, maintain fluid balance, and help prevent fatigue and cramping during training, making it ideal to sip throughout your workout.
