BCAA

Amino acids are the building blocks of protein and muscle growth. BCAA’s make up 35% of our muscles and have to be present in the body for muscle growth. On top of that they are used to balance hormonal release and brain functions.

When you are working out with heavy weights or doing extended periods of cardio, having a supply of branch chain amino acids (BCAA’s) can benefit you greatly. This is because, when you work out your body quickly depletes your glycogen storage and starts sending a signal to stop protein synthesis. This makes your body become catabolic (this is when your body starts breaking down muscle tissue), which is exactly what you don’t want.

Better muscle gains and faster recovery

When you use Garnell Nutrition’s BCAA’s , you can greatly assist the body and allow you to continue protein synthesis. This can lead to better muscle gains, faster recovery between sessions, and greater performance.

If you ever combine weight training and cardio in the same session, then it is highly recommended to take your BCAA capsules “during your workout” or “right before your cardio session”. This will assist to prevent any unwanted muscle loss during your aerobic exercise and provide extra energy to fi nish. By taking Garnell Nutrition’s BCAA’s prior to cardio you will not hurt your fat burning power.

Recommended on both training and non training days

So when should I take BCAA’s? Take 6 Capsules approx. 30 min’s before exercise and ideally another 6 immediately after with water. We also recommend to take a serving between meals throughout the day on NON training days.

Can I use BCAA’s with other supplements? Yes you can use BCAA’s along side your “overall supplementation plan”. This product can be used in
conjunction with High Performance Whey, Lean-Force fat burners, Creatine and Enrage, pretty much any product you like.
