Help build muscle size and strength

A study of experienced bodybuilders who took BCAAs 30 minutes before and 30 minutes after a workout showed greater weight gains than the placebo group. They increased muscle mass in the legs and arms while the placebo group showed no gains in those areas. The BCAA group also showed strength gains in the squat and bench press.* 

May activate muscle-building

Research shows that L-Leucine may act as a switch that turns on the muscle-building process.* 

Protect against muscle breakdown

BCAAs are unique in that they can be burned by the body for energy and potentially preserve hard-earned muscle, which is important for those who are dieting or restricting calories.* 

Enhance endurance and recovery

In another study, individuals performed 4 weeks of high-intensity resistance training designed to induce a state of overtraining. In the BCAA group, it resulted in no performance declines and lower markers of muscle damage while the placebo group experienced a significant decline in performance.* 

Helps reduce muscle soreness

The one-time ingestion of 5g of BCAAs taken 15 minutes before exercise reduced muscle soreness and muscle fatigue in men and women for several days after exercise.* Study participants used the same 2:1:1 BCAA ratio found in Fitness Labs BCAAFit 5000. Exercise consisted of 7 sets of 20 squats per set, with 3-minute intervals between sets designed to induce a state of overtraining. [Journal of Nutrition. 2006 Feb;136(2):529S-532(S)]

Choose BCAAFit capsules or powder

Both have the same 2:1:1 ratio of BCAAs (L-Leucine : L-Isoleucine : L-Valine). 

Capsules

BCAAFit 2000 capsules provide 500 mg of BCAAs per capsule or 2 grams (2,000 mg) per 4 capsules. This form is super convenient when heading to the gym straight from work and when you don't have time to mix up our powder version. There's also the advantage of avoiding the naturally bitter taste of BCAAs.

Directions:

Take 4 capsules with water before training and 4 more capsules after training. 

Powder

On the other hand, our BCAAFit 5000 powder is slightly more economical since there's no encapsulation involved. The powder is straight, unflavored, unsweetened BCAAs, that's instantized with a small amount of sunflower lecithin so it mixes well. Many people will mix it right into their pre-workout drink or mix it into a small amount of juice to mask the somewhat bitter taste.

A scoop is enclosed that accurately weighs out 5 grams (5,000 mg) of BCAAs to make it easy to measure out the right dose. Each container (340 grams) provides 62 servings. Gluten free. Our BCAAs are animal free (fermented from glucose).

Directions:

Stir 1 level scoop of this instant-mixing powder into water, juice or beverage. Take 1 serving either before, during or after workouts. To mask the distinct taste of unflavored and unsweetened BCAAs, mix into your favorite juice, protein shake, meal replacement shake, gainer or exercise drink.
