Mythological Amino Power

Amino Acids are fast becoming a must have nutritional supplement when it comes to pre/post and especially intra workout! You are all aware that Amino Acids are the building blocks of muscle, with the BCAA’s and EAA’s being more well known for the use before/during and after your workouts! One that is not heard a lot about until recently is A-alpha-hydroxy-isocaproic acid or HICA as it is more commonly known as. It is the most recent Amino Acid that has new research surrounding it with regards to augmented muscle development and reduced muscle soreness.

During metabolism the Amino Acid L-Leucine is broken down into smaller components. These smaller components are known as ‘metabolites’ of the original compound. HICA is a metabolite of the Amino L-Leucine and is present when Leucine is burned within the muscle cells. HICA then signals the need to increase the muscles anti-catabolic processes. Athletes who supplemented with HICA compared to a placebo group added more lean mass and reduced their bodyfat levels more significantly. It was also noticed that they had reduced DOM’s following exercise whilst supplementing with HICA.

In summary HICA will allow you to benefit from increased recovery as well increased protein synthesis. Currently there are only a few products on the market that are using HICA within their ingredient profiles, Anabolic Designs AMINOTAUR is one of them! What is in AMINOTAUR?
