Most athletes are aware of the importance of BCAA supplementation and the range of benefits it can have, particularly improved recovery and reduced muscle soreness after intensive exercise. Some experts believe that even moderate exercise can increase your body’s needs for leucine by up to 240% so a supplement like this should be high up your list.

Reflex BCAA's Regulate Muscle Growth

Branched chain amino acids are amino acids which are cleaved off protein and used by the body to help constitute muscle tissue. As the predominant form of amino acid type present in human muscle tissue, BCAA's play a critical role in regulating repair and growth of muscle tissue. Without sufficient intake of BCAA's no matter how much protein you consume, you will struggle to make any gains in performance.

BCAA Research

Research on BCAA's has demonstrated their capacity to help mediate faster muscle growth and recover, reduce delayed onset muscle soreness, and help to spare muscle tissue from being broken down under dieting conditions. While it is the case that you can obtain BCAA's from whey protein, BCAA's work more quickly and efficiently when supplied in a standalone form so that they can be transported more quickly to help recuperate and regenerate muscle tissue without delay.

The capsule form of Reflex’s BCAA is ideal for those for whom powder is not convenient and by using it to either take in isolation or to supplement a meal to increase the BCAA intake, users can expect to see results fairly quickly.
