Each serving has 7g of BCAAs in the researched 2:1:1 ratio, which includes about 3.5g L-Leucine per serving.
A study of experienced bodybuilders who took BCAAs 30 minutes before and 30 minutes after a workout showed greater gains than the placebo group.* They increased muscle mass in the legs and arms while the placebo group showed no gains in the legs and arms.* The BCAA group also showed strength gains in the squat and bench press.*
New research shows that L-Leucine may act as a switch that turns on the muscle-building process.*
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.*
A study of men and women who took 5 grams of BCAAs 15 minutes before a series of squat exercises (7 sets of 20 per set) showed they experienced significantly less muscle soreness and fatigue during the 4 days post-workout compared to placebo.*
Another study of individuals undergoing 4 weeks of high-intensity resistance training designed to induce a state of overtraining resulted in no performance declines and lower markers of muscle damage in the BCAA group, while the placebo group experienced a significant decline in performance.*
Glutamine is the most abundant amino acid in the body and is necessary for many body functions. It serves as a fuel for cells of the intestines and immune system.* It also regulates cell volume and is a key building block of protein and muscle.*
When the body is under physical stress, such as during a high-intensity workout or when running a marathon, muscle stores of glutamine can become depleted. Also, during calorie restriction, your body might not synthesize glutamine as quickly as you need it. The more stress you're under, the quicker you can deplete your glutamine supply. That's where supplemental glutamine may help keep your tank topped off. It can help you stay healthy so you can train more frequently with less downtime.*
We use a 2:1 ratio of Citrulline to Malate (instead of a cheaper 1:1 ratio) to provide more Citrulline per serving.
Citrulline supports the production of arginine, a precursor to nitric oxide. It may increase the body’s levels of arginine better than taking arginine itself.*
Malate supports phosphocreatine recovery and may reduce the sensation of fatigue during exercise.* One study showed that a single 8-gram dose prior to high-intensity anaerobic exercise increased muscular endurance.* Another study showed that taking 6 grams prior to aerobic exercise led to a 34% increase in energy production.*
Citrulline Malate may help reduce exercise-induced accumulations of ammonia by promoting the urea cycle and nitric oxide biosynthesis.* One study showed a combination of BCAAs, citrulline and other nitric oxide support factors worked together to reduce mental fatigue in elite taekwondo athletes during an extended period of exercise.*
Electrolytes are vital to optimal hydration, and are involved in numerous processes that affect muscle function including oxygen uptake and energy production. Our robust blend of electrolytes is precisely balanced with six major and minor electrolytes (potassium, sodium, calcium, magnesium, chloride and phosphorous) to help replenish what is lost through sweating during exercise.*
There is evidence that even a slight magnesium deficiency impairs exercise performance and magnifies the negative consequences of strenuous exercise. Strenuous exercise may increase magnesium requirements by 10-20%. Surveys also show that many people have low magnesium intakes. Athletes participating in sports requiring weight control (like wrestling, gymnastics and boxing) are especially susceptible to magnesium deficiency. AminoBoost® is a good source of magnesium.
All of our premium amino acids are made by fermentation from non-animal sourced material – we don't use duck feathers or human hair.
There's no caffeine or other stimulants. Whether it’s a training session after work or a late night workout, AminoBoost® has you covered. Plus, you can stack it with your favorite pre-workout or morning coffee and not have to worry about excess caffeine.
Many people like to cycle on and off creatine – so we left it out. You decide whether to add it separately or not.
Keto diets are defined by less than 50g of carbohydrates a day. With only 1g of carbs and 0g of sugar, you can get the amino acids your body needs without throwing off your diet plan.
Instead of using artificial lakes and dyes, we use beet root to color our formula.
We use a minimal amount of non-GE (non-genetically engineered) sunflower lecithin to ensure the powder stirs in easily.
Mix 1 scoop (16 grams) with 8-16 ounces of water (adjust for taste preference). Drink before, during or after a training session, or throughout the session as needed. Take 1 scoop daily.
