In the past few years Branch Chain Amino Acids have made there way back into the baskets of supplement shoppers. Rightfully so these BCAAs can be imperative for increasing muscle growth. Muscle loss normally occurs because your body increases protein breakdown to use the amino acids stored in our muscles for fuel. Likewise, protein synthesis will also decrease because of the reduced energy intake on may lack when not taking supplements such as BCAA. Ideally, you want protein synthesis to be at a higher rate than the breakdown of amino acids. When this equilibrium happens, you will be seeing those muscle gains that you work so hard for begin to appear! Branch chain amino acids do not only increase the rate of protein syntheses, but they also increase our bodies capacity for protein synthesis and growth. It’s plain and simple people: Increasing protein synthesis and decreasing breakdown will bring on muscle gains.
