Directions: As a dietary supplement, mix 2 scoops in approximately 16 - 24 oz. of water and shake well. If powder does not readily dissolve, allow to sit for a few minutes and shake again. ON WORKOUT DAYS:Consume the following amount before and/or during workout. 1 - 3 scoops per chart. Consume another serving one additional time per day for a total of 2 - 4 scoops, depending on body weight. eg A 180 lb person would consume 4 scoops total for the day. LESS THAN 160lbs. 1 serving 160 - 180lbs. 2 servings over 180lbs 3 servings ON NON-WORKOUT DAYS:Consume the amount (as stated in the chart) in the AM and another in the PM with or without food. eg A 180lb person would consume 2 scoops in the AM and 2 scoops in the PM for a total of 4 scoops total for the day. |

As an athlete, bodybuilder, or gym enthusiast you know just how much a grueling workout can breakdown your muscle - a requirement for subsequent muscle growth. You also have felt how tiring and exhausting a long cardio session can be. The breakdown of muscle and endurance training are necessary for performance enhancement.
If fitness was easy, everyone would do it. Wouldn't it be nice if there were ways to increase muscle protein synthesis to heal muscle breakdown faster, ways to increase endurance so you can stay on the treadmill longer? Well there is. Science has shown that supplementing with a branched chain amino acid (BCAA) cocktail can significantly increase nitrogen retention in the muscle, increase protein synthesis, and increase endurance.*
About BCAAs
BCAAs consist of L-Leucine, L-Isoleucine, and L-Valine, which are amino acids. Amino acids are the building blocks of protein, and protein is what your muscles need to be able to recovery and grow.*
Consuming free form amino acids, in the form of BCAAs will provide a quick boost to your amino acid pool, and therefore increase recovery, endurance, vascularity, and many other things.*
Dosing:
Less than 160 lbs = 1 scoop
160-180 lbs = 2 scoops
Over 180 lbs = 3 scoops
