Smartlabs BCAA Hardcore, 220 Capsules

Product description Smartlabs BCAA Hardcore

BCAA amino acids in a 4:1:1 ratio - That's BCAA Hardcore from Smartlabs

Smartlabs BCAA Hardcore are unique on the market with an anabolic 4:1:1 ratio of essential amino acids (L-Leucine, L-Isoleucine, L-Valine). Compared to conventional BCAA blends, the proportion of L-leucine is doubled in Smartlabs BCAA Hardcore. Why? L-Leucine is one of the three branched chain amino acids that are generally known for their anti-catabolic effects and support of muscle growth. Our body needs them for proper function and recovery. L-leucine is the most anabolic of the BCAAs (branched chain amino acids), even being the main and most important amino acid in the process of proteosynthesis (1,2). In general, BCAAs are precursors for the formation of alanine and glutamine (muscle amino acids) in muscle. Their participation is most important during physical exercise, when they are directly involved in muscle metabolism (Holecek, 2002). L-leucine, however, has a privileged position in the formation of muscle protein - proteosynthesis. It activates the mTOR signaling pathway, through which proteosynthesis is triggered (Layman, 2003). That is why L-leucine has twice the proportion in Smartlabs BCAA Hardcore.

The BCAA amino acids (L-leucine, L-isoleucine, L-valine) are branched chain essential amino acids that cannot be synthesized in the body and must be obtained from food or by cleaving tissue proteins. They are indispensable for the human body, making up 35% of all amino acids that make up muscle tissue. Because they are a good source of energy and protect muscle mass from devastation, it is essential to supplement them through dietary supplements in the event of intense physical activity or reduced energy intake.

BCAA Hardcore serves:

• protecting muscle mass from breakdown during physical exercise
• accelerating recovery after exercise
• increasing absolute strength
• protection of muscle mass during fat burning and weight reduction
