Ghost - Pump

Ghost Pump is Ghost Lifestyle's stimulant-free nitric oxide pre-workout — a pump-only formula with zero caffeine and zero stimulants built entirely around two parallel NO production pathways: L-Citrulline for the enzymatic arginine-to-NO route and NO3-T Arginine Nitrate for the nitrate-to-nitrite-to-NO dietary nitrate route. Six ingredients, fully disclosed, no proprietary blends. Available in 40 single-scoop servings or 20 double-scoop servings per container, with the label disclosing doses at both serving sizes. Use it solo as a caffeine-free pre-workout, or stack one scoop directly into Ghost Legend V4 or All Out for a combined pump-plus-energy formula. Vegan. Gluten free. Soy free. Sugar free. California Prop 65 Warning applies.†

Important: Do not use Ghost Pump if you are taking erectile dysfunction medication. Do not take additional nitrates from medication or other dietary supplements alongside this product — the NO3-T Arginine Nitrate contributes meaningful nitrate load that compounds with other nitrate sources.

The Two-Pathway Nitric Oxide System — How Ghost Pump Works

Most pump products target nitric oxide through a single mechanism: citrulline converts to arginine in the kidneys, arginine is used by nitric oxide synthase (NOS) enzymes to produce NO, and NO causes vasodilation. Ghost Pump runs two distinct NO pathways simultaneously — and because they operate through different substrates and different enzyme systems, they are additive rather than redundant.†

Pathway 1 — L-Citrulline (Vegan Fermented) — 3,000mg / 6,000mg

Ghost uses vegan-fermented L-Citrulline — produced through a fermentation process using plant-based substrates rather than animal collagen hydrolysis. Citrulline is the rate-limiting step in the urea cycle and the primary precursor to arginine in the kidneys. After oral ingestion, citrulline is absorbed in the small intestine, transported to the kidneys, converted to arginine via argininosuccinate synthase, and the resulting arginine is used by endothelial NOS (eNOS) to produce nitric oxide. This pathway is why citrulline outperforms direct oral arginine supplementation: arginine taken orally is aggressively degraded by arginase enzymes in the intestinal wall and liver before reaching the kidneys and vasculature, while citrulline bypasses this first-pass degradation entirely.†

At 3g per single scoop and 6g per double scoop, both doses fall within or above the range where research documents meaningful vasodilation, improved blood flow, reduced perceived exertion, and enhanced muscular endurance. The single-scoop (3g) dose is appropriate for stacking with Legend V4 or All Out — both of which already contribute citrulline. The double-scoop (6g) dose functions as a standalone clinical dose when using Ghost Pump alone.†

Pathway 2 — NO3-T Arginine Nitrate — 1,500mg / 3,000mg

NO3-T is a patented ingredient from Thermolife International that bonds L-Arginine to a nitrate ion (NO3) in a single molecule. This delivers two distinct mechanisms in one compound. First, the arginine component directly provides the NOS substrate — bypassing the citrulline-to-arginine conversion step and providing arginine immediately to endothelial NOS for NO production. Second, and more importantly for the pump experience, the nitrate component enters the dietary nitrate-to-NO pathway: nitrate (NO3) is reduced to nitrite (NO2) by bacteria in the mouth and GI tract, then further reduced to nitric oxide in hypoxic (low-oxygen) tissue environments.†

This second pathway is critically important because it operates most actively under exactly the conditions where the enzymatic NOS pathway becomes limiting — when oxygen delivery to working muscle is insufficient to sustain aerobic NOS activity at full intensity. The dietary nitrate pathway does not require oxygen to produce NO; it is specifically upregulated in hypoxic conditions. This means that at peak training intensity — when you are working hardest and oxygen delivery is most stressed — the nitrate pathway is producing the most NO. The two pathways therefore complement each other across the full training intensity spectrum: the enzymatic citrulline-to-arginine-to-NO pathway dominates at lower intensities, the nitrate pathway dominates at peak intensity, and both operate simultaneously throughout the workout.†

Ghost uses NO3-T at 3g per double scoop — described on Ghost's own label as "rarely used at this massive dose." Most products that include arginine nitrate use 500mg-1g. At 3g, Ghost Pump's nitrate contribution is among the highest in the mainstream pump pre-workout category.†

Taurine — 1,000mg / 2,000mg

Taurine is an osmolyte — it draws water into muscle cells, increasing intracellular hydration and cell volume. In a stimulant-free pump formula, taurine's role is to produce the water-driven intracellular pump that complements the vascular pump driven by NO. Taurine also supports mitochondrial health, reduces exercise-induced oxidative stress, and contributes to the fatigue-buffering effect that keeps pumps sustained rather than fading mid-session. At 1-2g per serving, Ghost Pump's taurine is meaningfully dosed — not a token inclusion.†

Setria L-Glutathione — 100mg / 200mg

Setria is a branded, highly bioavailable form of L-Glutathione from Kyowa Hakko — the most abundant antioxidant produced endogenously in the body. Standard oral glutathione supplements are poorly absorbed because glutathione is broken down in the GI tract before reaching systemic circulation. Setria uses a specific manufacturing process that improves oral bioavailability. Its relevance in a pump formula is the documented synergy between glutathione and citrulline for NO production: research published in the Journal of the International Society of Sports Nutrition found that the combination of citrulline plus glutathione produced greater nitric oxide output than either compound alone. Ghost Pump is specifically designed to exploit this synergy — the Setria functions as a NO amplifier for the citrulline dose rather than as a standalone antioxidant inclusion.†

Pine Bark Extract (95% Proanthocyanidins) — 100mg / 200mg

Pine bark extract standardized to 95% proanthocyanidins (sold commercially as Pycnogenol in clinical research) is one of the most research-validated natural NO-enhancing ingredients available. Proanthocyanidins from pine bark stimulate eNOS activity and increase NO production through mechanisms independent of the citrulline-arginine pathway. They also have documented antioxidant activity that protects NO from free radical scavenging — a critical function because NO is rapidly destroyed by reactive oxygen species (ROS) produced during intense exercise. By neutralizing the ROS that would otherwise degrade NO, pine bark extract effectively extends the bioavailability and action duration of the NO produced through both the citrulline and nitrate pathways.†

PureWay-C — 195mg / 390mg

PureWay-C is a high-bioavailability Vitamin C complex (ascorbic acid bonded to citrus bioflavonoids) with two distinct roles in Ghost Pump's formula. First, Vitamin C is required for the enzymatic activity of prolyl hydroxylase — the enzyme responsible for hydroxylating L-arginine into hydroxyarginine, an intermediate in NO production. Adequate Vitamin C status therefore directly supports the rate of NO synthesis from the citrulline-arginine pathway. Second, Vitamin C is a water-soluble antioxidant that quenches exercise-generated free radicals, protecting both NO and the endothelial cells responsible for producing it. At 390mg per double scoop (433% DV), Ghost Pump provides a meaningful Vitamin C dose — not an afterthought.†

AstraGin — 25mg / 50mg

AstraGin upregulates intestinal amino acid and nutrient transporters, improving the absorption of L-Citrulline and the arginine component of NO3-T from the GI tract. More absorbed citrulline per gram consumed means more conversion to arginine, more NOS substrate, and more NO output. AstraGin makes the rest of the formula work better.†

How to Use Ghost Pump — Solo vs. Stacked

Ghost Pump is specifically designed to function in two modes, and the dual serving size disclosure (1 scoop vs. 2 scoops) on the label reflects this intentional versatility.†

Solo (Stimulant-Free Mode): Two scoops in 10-12oz of water, 30 minutes before training. This delivers the full clinical citrulline dose (6g), the maximum nitrate load (3g Arginine Nitrate), 2g taurine, and the full antioxidant complex. Appropriate for late-evening training when caffeine would disrupt sleep, for users who are caffeine-intolerant, for deload weeks where lower-stimulus training does not require a full stim pre-workout, or as a permanent alternative to caffeinated pre-workouts.†

Stacked (With Legend V4 or Any Caffeinated Pre-Workout): One scoop mixed into the same water as Ghost Legend V4 or consumed alongside. This adds 3g citrulline (bringing V4's 6g up to 9g combined), 1.5g arginine nitrate for the secondary NO pathway V4 does not include, and the Setria + Pine Bark antioxidant complex. For users who want the maximum possible pump output from their pre-workout without switching to All Out's 400mg caffeine, the Legend V4 + Ghost Pump stack is the most effective Ghost pre-workout combination available.†

Frequently Asked Questions About Ghost Pump

1. Why are there two serving sizes on the label?
   Ghost specifically designed Ghost Pump for two use contexts: solo as a standalone non-stimulant pre-workout (2 scoops, full dose) and stacked with a caffeinated pre-workout like Legend V4 (1 scoop, additive dose). The dual-serving label lets you see exactly what you are getting in each scenario without having to do the math. Single-scoop doses of 3g citrulline and 1.5g arginine nitrate are meaningful on their own — particularly when adding to the 6g citrulline already in Legend V4. Double-scoop doses of 6g citrulline and 3g arginine nitrate represent the full clinical standalone pump formula.†
2. Why does this product warn against use with erectile dysfunction medication?
   Phosphodiesterase-5 (PDE5) inhibitors — the class of drugs that includes sildenafil (Viagra), tadalafil (Cialis), and similar ED medications — work by preventing the breakdown of cGMP, the signaling molecule through which nitric oxide produces vasodilation. Ghost Pump contains NO3-T Arginine Nitrate, a dietary nitrate source that significantly elevates circulating NO and cGMP. Combining a nitrate-containing supplement with a PDE5 inhibitor compounds the vasodilatory effect through two mechanisms simultaneously — producing potentially dangerous drops in blood pressure. This interaction is well-established and applies to all nitrate-containing supplements, not just Ghost Pump. The same warning applies to any product containing NO3-T, beet root extract, or other dietary nitrate sources.†
3. Is Ghost Pump appropriate for an evening workout?
   Yes — this is one of the primary use cases Ghost designed it for. With zero caffeine and zero stimulants, Ghost Pump produces no CNS arousal or sleep disruption. You can take it 30 minutes before an 8pm or 9pm training session without affecting sleep quality. The vasodilatory effects are driven entirely by NO production and resolve as training ends — no lingering stimulant effect to manage.†
4. What does 'Natty' flavor mean?
   Natty is Ghost's name for their unflavored version of Ghost Pump — no flavoring agents, just the active ingredients in powder form. It mixes cleanly into any flavored pre-workout, protein shake, or beverage without altering the taste. The Natty format is the most popular stacking option for users who mix Ghost Pump directly into Ghost Legend V4 or another flavored pre-workout and do not want to add a competing or complementary flavor profile.†

How to Take Ghost Pump

Mix 1 scoop with 6-8oz of water to stack with Ghost Legend or another pre-workout, OR mix 2 scoops with 10-12oz of water to use standalone. Take 30 minutes before training. Do not exceed 2 scoops per day. Do not use if you are taking erectile dysfunction medication. Do not combine with additional nitrates from medication or other dietary supplements. Stay hydrated during training. Room temperature water mixes best. California Prop 65 Warning applies.†
