§ 01 — The Stack Builder

A clinical dose calculator for athletes who cannot afford a contaminated or under-dosed gram.

Configure a peer-reviewed protocol in five inputs. Every recommendation is benchmarked against ISSN exercise-nutrition position stands, NSF Certified for Sport on 100% of SKUs, and traceable to a published Certificate of Analysis — batch by batch, gram by gram.

§ 02 — Protocol Presets

Pick the starting protocol that matches your discipline. We have already done the math.

Four pre-built clinical stacks authored by our PhD R&D team — each one a published peer-reviewed framework, not a "men's vs. women's" marketing split. Click a panel to load it into the calculator below.

§ 03 — Dose Calculator

Five inputs. One clinically-built protocol.

The left column is a clinical intake form. The right column is your protocol output — written the way a sports dietitian would write it, not the way a checkout cart would. Edit any field; the numbers update.

Output is a dose suggestion benchmarked to ISSN position stands. Confirm with your team's sports dietitian before deploying in a program protocol.

§ 04 — The Evidence

Twelve peer-reviewed papers. Zero pixie-dusted labels.

  1. 12 Peer-reviewed papers published by our R&D team since 2019.
  2. 100% NSF Certified for Sport across the full SKU line — every jar, every flavor.
  3. 41,000+ Certificates of Analysis published and searchable on the site since launch.
  4. 0 Positive doping-test results across 9,400+ sponsored-athlete consumptions.

§ 05 — Operational Notes

The five questions a sports dietitian will ask before routing a team through a new vendor.

  1. 1. What are the subscription cancellation terms?

    Cancel any cycle from your dashboard before the next ship date — no phone call, no retention queue. If a cycle has already cut, you keep the box and the cycle is your last. We post the policy in plain English on the order page; nothing is buried.

  2. 2. Can we look up the Certificate of Analysis for our specific batch?

    Yes — every jar is printed with a batch ID. Enter it at /transparency and you get the published CoA: assay results, heavy-metal panel, microbial panel, and banned-substance screen (NSF Certified for Sport scope). We have published 41,000+ since 2018.

  3. 3. What happens if a batch fails third-party testing?

    It is destroyed, the lot number is retired, and every customer who received that batch is notified by email within 48 hours of the failing result, with the option to receive a free replacement cycle from a passing batch or a full refund. We have retired fewer than 0.4% of batches produced — the count is published quarterly.

  4. 4. Is there a banned-substance guarantee?

    NSF Certified for Sport on 100% of SKUs — that is the strictest scope commercially available, screening for 300+ banned compounds including stimulants, hormones, and masking agents. Across 9,400+ sponsored-athlete consumptions since 2021, we have recorded zero positive doping-test results attributable to a Way to Go product. The full log is in the annual Transparency Report.

  5. 5. Can a team protocol be invoiced / net-30 instead of card-on-file?

    Yes — programs at the NCAA, professional, and federal tactical level route through /for-teams with net-30 invoicing, GPO pricing, and a single CoA binder delivered with the first shipment. The configurator output here is the same protocol the /for-teams desk writes the PO against.

§ 06 — Close

Subscribe to the protocol you just configured. Cancel any cycle. We will ship the CoA in the box.

Clinical doses, not label-claim grams. Third-party tested every batch. 1,847 verified athletes, 14 NCAA Power-5 programs, three NFL franchises. The math has already been done — the only thing left is to start the cycle.
