THRUX

Serious Lifter's Pouch

We created THRUX because
30mg of caffeine is a decaf.

THRUX is 100mg caffeine per pouch + L-tyrosine + Methylated B12. Pop it in. Train.

THE WELLNESS DIVISION DIDN'T EXIST WHEN SHE STARTED.

Anita Timofey walked into a 24 Hour Fitness at sixteen years old and found her sport. Three months in, she was deadlifting 225. By the end of the first year, the gym was where she lived. Bodybuilding came later. Bikini came first.

In 2014 she stepped on the NPC Governors Cup stage as a teenager. Eighth and eleventh in two bikini classes. She stopped competing right after that. Seven years of training, no shows. The version of her that was going to come back didn't exist yet, because the division she belongs in didn't exist in the same shape it does now. Wellness, the division built around glute and leg development with upper-body proportion, came into the IFBB Pro League in 2021. Anita came back the same year.

She won the NPC Sacramento Championships overall in 2021. First attempt. Top five at NPC Nationals that same year. Third at the 2022 NPC USA Championships. Fourth at the 2024 NPC Nationals. Won the Sacramento Championships overall again in 2024, this time as a returning champion. The pro card is the next step. The 2026 NPC USA Championships in Las Vegas is the show.

That's the lifter THRUX is built for. The one who took seven years to come back and came back as a different competitor. The one who trains with intention, not noise. The pouch in the lip when there is no one to perform for. THRUX is a serious lifter's pouch, and Anita is the archetype.

PATIENCE IS THE MOST IMPORTANT KEY.

Anita's been in the gym since she was sixteen. The version of her on the wellness stage now is the version she built across a decade — the years between her teenage bikini debut and her twenty-something wellness comeback weren't a gap, they were the work. Anyone who's competed in physique knows the difference between training that's about the next show and training that's about the body you're building. Anita's training was the second kind for years before it ever became the first again.

She is engaged to Antonio Smothers. They train together. They prep together. They locked the THRUX formulation together — same pouch, same dose, same opinions about what serious lifters deserve. The brand has two co-founders on the front end and one shared training table behind the scenes.

THRUX exists because Anita and Antonio asked for it. A focus pouch built around what serious physique athletes actually need going into a session. Anita's input on dose, formulation, flavor, and feel is in every can. She's not paid to use it. She's a co-founder. She helped build it. She uses it because it does what she asked it to do.

“Patience is the most important key.”
