What
is Beta-Alanine?
Beta-alanine
is a non essential amino acid used to promote muscular endurance and improve
exercise performance by being able to train longer and harder. By promoting
high levels of intramuscular carnosine it can delay the build up of lactate
burning in the muscles. It has also been known to increase maximal power output
when training as well.
How to use Beta-Alanine?
Beta
alanine is available as a pure powdered form. We recommend with research(1)
3.2g-6.4g of beta alanine be taken 20 minutes pre workout. Beta-Alanine can be
powerful so begin at 3g and slightly raise dose as your tolerance allows. 3g
beta-alanine+5g creatine monohydrate makes a powerful synergistic combination
of cell volumization and increased endurance via 2 pathways. Only side effect
associated with beta-alanine is a slight tingling or skin flushing feeling if
too high of a dose be taken. Take no more than 6g as it will provide no further
benefits.
