BCAA 8:1:1 Zero BCAA & Essential Amino Acids

BioTechUSA BCAA 8:1:1 Zero is a purpose-built amino acid supplement ideal for supporting muscle growth and recovery. With an increased leucine ratio, it’s tailored for serious athletes who want to maximise muscle protein synthesis and minimise muscle breakdown. As one of the three essential branched-chain amino acids, leucine plays the most critical role in activating the mTOR pathway, which is involved in initiating muscle protein synthesis. The 8:1:1 ratio ensures a much higher dose of leucine compared to isoleucine and valine, positioning this product as a potent post-workout support option. Completely sugar-free and flavoured, it’s also suitable for those on restrictive or cutting-phase diets.

BioTechUSA BCAA 8:1:1 Zero is most effective when consumed around training sessions. Ideal timings include just before or directly after your workout to support recovery and anabolic signalling. It can also be used during fasted training or intra-workout to help preserve lean muscle mass, especially during calorie-restricted phases or intense endurance sessions.

This product is designed for athletes, bodybuilders, and fitness enthusiasts who train regularly and require optimal recovery and muscle support. It’s especially suitable for those in a bulking or recomp phase where maximising protein synthesis is a goal. It’s also a good option for individuals on low-carb or ketogenic diets, as it contains no sugar or fat. Suitable for both men and women, excluding pregnant or breastfeeding women and children.
