WHAT ARE SMELLING SALTS?
Ammonia Smelling salts for weight lifting have been used for decades in boxing, lifting, and other professional sports.
Smelling Salts are safe and effective if used properly. Smelling salts deliver a high potency of ammonia gas, opening the blood vessels and creating a rush of oxygen to the brain which creates an instance sense of clarity and focus.
Zone Smelling Salts come in a powder form (ammonium carbonate ((NH4)2CO3H2O)). When water is introduced with the ammonium carbonate, ammonia gas is released.
Look at our activation method above to determine if you need to activate your salts, or if it is already done for you.
Give Zone Smelling Salts a try and hit your next PR.

SHELF LIFE
Shelf Life: Around 6 months. Once initially opened the lifespan of smelling salts can last anywhere from 1-6 months depending how many times they get used/opened.
The more often fresh oxygen is reintroduced into the bottle the faster it’ll dry out and lose potency.*
KEEP OUT OF PROLONGED OR EXTREME HEAT AND COLD!
Make sure to give the bottle a tap and shake before each use, this will allow the ammonia gas to rise to the top, giving you a clean and potent hit.
Activation Method: Pre-activated and ready to use!
Intensity Level: Advanced
Scent: Ammonia
Features: In collaboration with Travis "Papa Bear" Rogers, we created Bear Down Steel collection. Black Bear has a formula that is a slightly more potent than the BDS Original. As mentioned, Bear Down Steel is a hard hitting and highly advanced smelling salt that is not for beginners. Proceeds of sales support the Papabear Strong Foundation.
How to get the longest life out of my Bear Down Steel?
- Make sure the seal is intact at the top of the lid (Loose or cracked seals will cause the bottle to leak and kill the bottle quickly)
- Make sure the lid is on TIGHT after each use
- Shake before each use and hit the bottom of the bottle (to get everything at the bottom of the bottle.)
- You don't have to completely remove the lid - Cracking the top can hit just as strong
- Always remember to keep the bottle a full arm's length away from your face!!!
- For the biggest hit: Wait 5-10 seconds after shaking to crack the bottle.
