MusclePharm : Amino1 Black Intra-Workout

MusclePharm Amino1 Black is an all-in-one formula for recovery and muscle repair. The amino ratio used is the usual 3:1:2 as seen in the majority of MusclePharm amino products such as BCAA 3:1:2 Energy, so you're getting 1.5g Leucine which isn't the greatest amount so we would suggest doubling up the scoops.

Amino1 Black is a very similar product to MusclePharm's BCAA 3:1:2 Energy, including the same amount of BCAA's and the same Green Tea Extract, Panax Ginseng and Caffeine (all in the same doses). Where Amino1 Black differs is the additional recovery and hydration ingredients. Each serving has 3g Glutamine, 2g Glycine and 2g Taurine to assist in recovery while 100mg coconut water powder and a blend of minerals is included to help improve hydration.

We would probably say Amino1 Black is more of a hydration product rather than recovery as the total 3g BCAA's included won't really do much in terms of muscle repair compared to other amino/hydration products such as PES Amino iv. You could always double up or take before, during and after to increase BCAA's consumed but you will soon run out.

Amino1 Black tastes great and excels in hydration so if it's something to keep you going during your workout it's definitely one to consider.
