BCAAs
Branched-chain amino acids stimulating muscle protein synthesis.
What it’s good for
Low StaminaStrong
Stimulates muscle protein synthesis via mTOR pathway. Reduces exercise-induced muscle damage and protein degradation.
Dose: 5–20 g
Slow RecoveryStrong
Leucine activates mTOR signaling for muscle protein synthesis. BCAAs reduce DOMS by attenuating muscle damage markers.
Dose: 10–20 g
