Product Description

Amino Acids are the building blocks of protein. While the average individual only uses a protein supplement powder, the serious, elite athlete also uses individualized amino acid formulations. For this highly specialized athlete, there's no better combination than the branched-chain amino acids (BCAA's) and glutamine. Numerous studies have proven the effectiveness of BCAA combinations, specifically a 2:1:1 ratio of leucine to isoleucine to valine. This precise ratio of BCAA's has been proven to help increase strength, boost performance, and promote lean mass while selectively reducing bodyfat.

To this potent 2:1:1 combo, we've added the #1 amino acid taken by athletes: glutamine. Along with BCAA's, glutamine may be the most powerful anticatabolic nutrient known to science and it's the most abundant non-essential amino acid in the body. It exists in high amounts because it plays a number of important physiological roles which can be important to the athlete. Glutamine can help volumize cells which can enhance protein and glycogen synthesis; it can function as a fuel during prolonged exercise; it can help boost the immune system; and it can help prevent muscle catabolism during intense training.

Studies show that intense training can rapidly deplete pools of glutamine and that supplementation with either BCAA's or glutamine can help you to maintain high levels. With BCAA Stack, you get both. This potent one-two combination can benefit anyone who trains or diets to the limit.

When an individual's energy expended exceeds energy consumed (e.g., high intensity exercise coupled with dieting or a long and grueling competitive season), lean mass is invariably lost along with the desired bodyfat. Losing lean mass is the last thing any athlete wants as muscle mass translates into greater strength, performance, and a higher fat-burning potential. Clinical studies have actually shown that the right combination of BCAA's and glutamine can actually help preserve lean mass during these states. In fact, the glutamine/BCAA stack was lean mass while reducing bodyfat in those individuals who were experiencing calorie reductions!

What makes the BCAA Stack's unique and proven combination of four key amino acids even better is its high-impact powder form. As a delicious and fruity drink mix, this amino acid supplement is quickly assimilated by the working and training body for maximum results every time.

Expected benefits can include:
  • Tasty sugar and fat-free drink mix
  • Scientifically-proven amino ratios
  • Increased protein synthesis
  • Reduce protein breakdown
  • Increase endurance
  • Quicker recovery times
  • Increase muscle growth
