HMB MAY HELP TO:
• SUPPORT LEAN MUSCLE NATURALLY*
• SUPPORT THE REDUCTION OF MUSCLE TISSUE BREAKDOWN*
| HMB (ß-hydroxy ß-methylbutyrate) is a metabolite of the essential BCAA amino acid Leucine and is synthesized in the human body. It produces about 0.2-0.4 grams per day. Standard doses used in research studies have been around 3 grams per day. L-Leucine itself is becoming a more and more popular ingredient as a great amino acid for bodybuilders. When compared to Leucine, HMB appears to be significantly more powerful on a gram per gram basis at constricting the rate of muscle protein breakdown.* |
HMB appears to be an interesting supplement for the purpose of reducing muscle wasting during periods where muscle breakdown is accelerated and should assist athletes currently on a reduced calorie diet.*
One advantage of HMB is that it may prevent fat gain, making it the ideal supplement to stack while dieting. This product is designed for athletes to be used both in the off-season and during contest preparation. HMB is suitable for long-term continuous use. As a dietary supplement, research suggests HMB may promote muscle gain, prolong muscular endurance, and enhance overall muscle recovery by minimizing the amount of protein broken down in the muscles after extended periods of exercise.*3 Reasons Why You Should Use HMB
Recent studies found that not only may HMB assist in muscle gains, but as a fat loss supplement as well. HMB Increases GH and IGF-1 Levels
Recently, an 18% increase in strength gain was demonstrated following 12 weeks of HMB ingestion compared to placebo in experienced resistance trained men. Read more.HMB Boosts Strength and Performance in Elite Athletes
If you look at the research, there is a staggering amount of research to support the validity of HMB for increasing lean muscle mass and improving performance.
