Performance & Recovery Supplements

Recover Smarter. Perform Stronger.

Every athlete knows the truth: training breaks you down - recovery builds you back up. But here’s the catch: most people focus on the workout and neglect the recovery. That’s why fatigue lingers, strength stalls, and hydration becomes an afterthought. SSA Supplements has spent 25 years helping South African athletes perform at their peak. This collection is built for one purpose to keep you moving, repairing and ready for the next challenge.

Why Performance & Recovery Matters

Your body isn’t a machine, it’s a system. When you train hard, you lose electrolytes, deplete energy stores, and create micro-tears in muscle tissue. Without proper hydration and recovery, you’re not just slowing progress - you’re risking injury and burnout. That’s why SSA’s Performance & Recovery range covers every angle:

Hydration to fight fatigue and cramping.
Creatine for explosive power and cell volumisation.
Amino acids for muscle repair and endurance.
Glutamine for immune support and recovery.

No sugar-loaded sports drinks. Just science-backed formulas designed for real athletes.

Our Performance and Recovery Range:

SSA Creatine Supreme - Micronized Monohydrate

Creatine monohydrate is one of the most researched and trusted supplements for strength and power. This formula uses 100% micronised creatine monohydrate, ensuring faster absorption and better mixing without clumping. Micronisation means your body can quickly replenish ATP stores, giving you the energy needed for short bursts of power during high-intensity training.

SSA Ultra Creatine Transport - Cell Volumisation Creatine

Creatine is king for strength but absorption matters. Ultra Creatine Transport combines multiple creatine forms with fast-acting carbs (Dextrose, Maltodextrin, Waxy Maize) to shuttle creatine into your muscles efficiently. Add Taurine and L-Glutamine for energy and recovery, and you’ve got a formula that builds size, strength, and endurance without the bloat.

SSA Amino X9 Stimulant Free with Cellular Repair (30 servings)

Most brands stop at BCAAs. We go further. Amino X9 delivers EAAs + BCAAs + Cellular Repair Complex (L-Glutamine, Taurine, Glycine) for complete recovery. Stimulant-free, so you can take it pre, intra or post-workout without jitters. Better hydration, faster repair and improved endurance all in one scoop.

SSA Glutamine

Intense training depletes glutamine levels, which can slow recovery and increase fatigue. SSA Glutamine helps restore this essential amino acid, supporting faster muscle repair, reduced lactic acid buildup and improved endurance. It’s ideal for athletes who want to bounce back quickly and maintain peak performance.

Performance for Every Athlete:

Strength & Power: Ultra Creatine Transport for explosive lifts and faster recovery.
Endurance & Hydration: Stay fueled and balanced with advanced electrolyte support to fight fatigue and keep performance high.
Recovery & Repair: Amino X9 and Glutamine for muscle rebuilding and immune support.

Frequently Asked Questions

What makes SSA Ultra Creatine Transport different from regular creatine?

Ultra Creatine Transport combines multiple creatine forms with fast-acting carbs for better absorption and cell volumisation. Add Taurine and L-Glutamine for energy + recovery, and you’ve got a formula that builds strength and repairs muscle faster than standard creatine.

Who benefits most from Ultra Creatine Transport?

Athletes who need explosive power and fast recovery such as bodybuilders, weightlifters, sprinters and anyone doing high-intensity training.

When should I take hydration, creatine and amino acids?

Ultra Creatine Transport: Pre-workout or intra-workout; on rest days, take in the morning.
Amino X9: Pre-, intra-, or post-workout for endurance and recovery.

Why do I still feel fatigued even when I drink water?

Because hydration isn’t just about water, it’s about recovery and nutrient balance. Your muscles need more than fluids; they require amino acids to repair and perform at their best. Amino X9 delivers a full spectrum of essential aminos plus a Cellular Repair Complex to support muscle recovery, reduce fatigue and keep you training harder day after day.

Why choose Amino X9 over regular BCAAs?

BCAAs alone aren’t enough for full recovery. Amino X9 includes EAAs + BCAAs + Cellular Repair Complex (L-Glutamine, Taurine, Glycine) for complete muscle repair, hydration, and endurance without stimulants.

Are these products stimulant-free?

Yes, Amino X9 is completely stimulant-free, so you can take them any time without jitters or crashes.

What role does glutamine play in recovery?

Glutamine supports immune function, muscle repair and gut health, making it essential for athletes under heavy training loads. SSA Glutamine helps reduce soreness and speeds up recovery.

Are SSA products safe and tested?

Absolutely. SSA Supplements are locally manufactured under strict quality standards, ensuring purity, accurate dosing and compliance with South African regulations.
