Benefits

BCAAs are three essential amino acids (leucine, isoleucine and valine) meaning that they must be obtained through the diet. The BCAAs are especially important as they activate (especially leucine) the process of muscle protein synthesis as well as contributing as the building blocks of new proteins formed in the recovery period after exercise.

As such, they compromise around a third of the protein within our muscles and therefore help to contribute to the growth of muscle mass. In addition, the BCAAs are also used as energy source during endurance exercise, especially during high-intensity and carbohydrate restricted exercise (i.e. low carb training).

L-Glutamine is the most abundant non-essential amino acid found in muscle tissue. During periods of prolonged and intense exercise, both blood and muscle stores of glutamine can become depleted in the post-exercise recovery period. Glutamine supplementation before and after exercise may therefore improve muscle, immune and gut function.

L-Arginine is a non-essential amino acid that may help increase muscle blood flow to allow the greater delivery of nutrients to the working muscles.

I’m an endurance athlete, will BCAA Perform help me?

The BCAAs are also used as energy source during endurance exercise, especially during high-intensity and carbohydrate restricted exercise (i.e. low carb training). Consuming BCAAs prior to such training sessions can help to reduce muscle protein breakdown and stimulate muscle protein synthesis post-exercise, conditions that can facilitate training adaptation.

How many scoops per serving?

Two scoops will provide a 15g serving that contains 6g BCAAs, 5g L-Glutamine and 1.5g L-Arginine

Does it mix/shake well?

BCAA Perform is best mixed in an SiS Protein Shaker with other SiS products
