Product Description
Most athletes train their fuel. Fewer train their physiology. The carbs are dialed, the hydration is sorted, but the two factors that actually determine how long you can hold a hard effort, acidity buildup in the muscles and lactate accumulation in the blood, often go unaddressed until they become the reason a hard session falls apart. This bundle is built to change that.
The Maurten Bicarb and Nomio Training Bundle pairs two of the most scientifically grounded performance tools available into a single training protocol. They work on different mechanisms and address the same problem from different angles. Nomio notes that the two products target different physiological systems and can be used together.
Two Products. Two Mechanisms. One Protocol.
Maurten Bicarb System applies the same hydrogel technology behind Maurten's gels and drink mixes to sodium bicarbonate, the compound that helps buffer the acid your muscles produce during high-intensity efforts. When you push hard, hydrogen ions accumulate and muscle pH drops, which limits power output and accelerates fatigue. Sodium bicarbonate counteracts that acidity, but traditional forms have always caused GI distress that canceled out the benefit. Maurten's hydrogel encapsulates the bicarbonate mini tablets and carries them through the stomach in a controlled way, reducing that GI issue significantly. Five body-weight-specific sizes ensure accurate dosing. Take it 1.5 to 2 hours before your session.
Nomio is a 60ml broccoli sprout shot containing a concentrated dose of isothiocyanates, the natural compounds that activate your body's master antioxidant response system. In clinical research, this activation was associated with a 12% reduction in blood lactate during exercise and a 10% decrease in oxidative stress. Each shot contains the equivalent of 2.5 kilograms of broccoli sprouts, stabilized by Swedish researchers at Karolinska Institutet over eight years of development. Take it 3 hours before your key session. The pack includes 4 servings.
How to Run the Protocol.
3 hours before training: Take one Nomio shot. Your body needs time to process the isothiocyanates and peak their effect right when your session begins.
1.5 to 2 hours before training: Prepare and consume your Maurten Bicarb System at least one hour after a meal. Do not chew the mini tablets.
During heavy training blocks: A second Nomio shot taken an hour before bed can support your body's overnight recovery response.
Pro tip: Bicarb is best suited to high-intensity efforts at or above threshold. Intervals, time trials, hard group rides. It is not a supplement for easy aerobic sessions and should not exceed 2 to 3 uses per week.
Both products are fully WADA compliant. Nomio carries the Cologne List certification. Maurten Bicarb System carries Informed Sport certification. Trusted by Primož Roglič, Lotte Kopecky, Cole Hocker, and David Roche.
Stop training around your limits. Start training through them.

Tried, tested — and triumphed
The Maurten Bicarb System has been developed in collaboration with some of the world's greatest athletes and has been used during some iconic performances like Primož Roglič’s Olympic TT gold and Vuelta-winning heroics, Lotte Kopecky’s epic Strade Bianche victory, and Nils van der Poel’s speed skating 5k & 10k Olympic golds & world record.
Nomio + Maurten Bicarb Training Bundle FAQ's
Everything you need to know about Nomio + Maurten Bicarb Training Bundle.
They work on different physiological mechanisms that both limit high-intensity performance. Maurten Bicarb buffers the acid buildup in muscles during hard efforts by increasing blood bicarbonate levels. Nomio's isothiocyanates activate the body's antioxidant response system, reducing blood lactate by 12% in clinical research. Nomio's own FAQ confirms the two can be combined for enhanced performance.
Take Nomio 3 hours before your session, your body needs time for its isothiocyanates to peak their effect. Take the Maurten Bicarb System 1.5 to 2 hours before training, at least one hour after a meal. Prepare the Bicarb System by mixing Component B with 200ml of water, letting it rest 5 minutes, then adding Component C and stirring gently. Consume immediately and do not chew the mini tablets.
Size is determined by your body weight and your prior experience with bicarbonate. Maurten offers five sizes: 12, 15, 19, 22, and 25 grams of sodium bicarbonate. First-time users should start at a lower dose for their weight to assess tolerance. Each purchase includes access to the Bicarb Digital System, Maurten's planning tool to help you select the right size and plan your sessions.
Yes. The Maurten Bicarb System carries Informed Sport certification, meaning every batch is tested for prohibited substances before release. Nomio carries Cologne List certification. Both are fully WADA compliant and safe for use in competition. Neither contains caffeine or stimulants.
The Maurten Bicarb System should not exceed 2 to 3 uses per week and is best reserved for your hardest training sessions or race efforts at or above threshold. Nomio's recommended maximum is 2 shots per day with an annual ceiling of 150 shots. On days when you use the Bicarb System, no additional sodium supplementation is needed given its high sodium content.
