What Are BCAAs?


TRAIN LONGER, FEEL STRONGER.

Increase strength and physical endurance by feeding your muscles exactly what they need. BCAAs (Branched-Chain Amino Acids) boost muscle protein synthesis (the rebuilding of muscle fibers) – increasing muscular energy & strength, speeding up recovery time, and reducing soreness. Notice greater results from training.*

What ARE AMINO ACIDS?

Twenty different amino acids make up the estimated 100,000 different proteins found throughout the human body. Of those twenty aminos, nine are considered essential amino acids, meaning they are not naturally produced by the body and must be obtained through the diet.

Of those nine, three are described as Branched-Chain Amino Acids (BCAA) --leucine, isoleucine, and valine --which can only be found in protein-rich foods like dairy, eggs, and meat.*

What do bcaas do for me?

During exercise, the body will, among other physiological processes, break down muscle tissue for energy. As most people have experienced, this energy only lasts so long and eventually, your body gets fatigued and unable to push as hard as it was at the beginning of the workout.

Supplementing BCAAs shortly before or during training helps reduce the cannibalizing of the muscles for the needed energy while also replenishing free BCAA pools, therefore, increasing endurance.

BCAAs are also beneficial when trying to cut weight and not lose muscle mass. When eating fewer calories and mainly less protein, BCAAs can minimize the breakdown of muscle for energy.*

BENEFITS OF BCAAs

IMPROVES MUSCLE PHYSIOLOGY
Raises muscle energy production and protects muscle tissue from excessive exercise damage.*

REDUCES MUSCLE SORENESS
BCAAs stimulate muscle protein synthesis and in turn, help alleviate the effects of DOMS (Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness)*

PROMOTES FAT METABOLISM
Encourages the utilization of stored body fat for energy.*

OPTIMIZES PERFORMANCE
BCAAs help prevents the body from catabolizing muscle to produce natural BCAA for energy.*

COMBATS FATIGUE
Increased BCAA levels in the muscles delay fatigue by limiting the production of Tryptophan in the brain.*

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

WHEN SHOULD I TAKE BCAAs?

For most efficient utilization BCAAs should be taken 15-30 minutes before or during exercise.*

WHAT SHOULD I MIX WITH MY BCAAs?

For proper consumption, BCAAs should be mixed in a clear liquid, i.e water, juice, pre-workout. DO NOT take with a protein shake, as this will counter the specific beneficial effects, noted above, of the isolated amino acids found in BCAAs.*

WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE BCAAs IN THIS AND IN OTHER PRODUCTS LIKE DAILY STRENGTH? 

Daily Strength and Brute Strength have some free-form BCAAs added to the protein blend. (These are the same BCAA ingredients found in this BCAA product.) This increases the overall level of BCAAs in a serving of these products and enables the body to receive some immediately-needed BCAAs very quickly. Meanwhile, the larger amounts of BCAAs are more slowly released from the protein blend as those proteins are digested.

In the BCAAs product, all of the branched chain aminos are in free-form, thereby providing an abundant infusion of these nutrients very quickly to the muscles. This enables the muscles to increase their pools of BCAAs for muscle preservation, building, and repair as well as for muscle energy production during activity.

ARE BCAAs BENEFICIAL FOR WOMEN?

There are no gender differences in the need for BCAAs.

DO I TAKE THIS EVERYDAY OR JUST ON DAYS THAT I EXERCISE?

By consuming BCAAs on a daily basis, reserves of these important nutrients are increased. This enables their use for muscle repair and for muscle energy even on days when one doesn’t exercise, train, or perform.

I love these BCAAs

This product definitely works. I am proned to overtraining and it isn’t been an issue since taking this. I mix it in with brute force alpha before my workouts. Seems to also make the pre workout work better when taken together. I recommend this product to anyone looking for a solid recovery agent.

BCAA believer!

I was having some leg cramp issues on long hikes I didn’t used to have. Turning 40 this year and noticed a different soreness after hard workouts. There is a definite difference in performance and recovery when I don’t use these.

Started about a few months ago

New supplement for me- fits in well with my workout. Will continue as I’m continue to seem gains. Great product!!!

Awful tasting

I thought the pineapple was bad and then I tried the blood orange! Dear lord it’s bad, I’m sure it’s good for me though.

Hey Daniel,

Thank you for giving our BCAAs a try and for your feedback! We use natural flavoring in our BCAAs, which is why some may feel it tastes less pleasant than some of the commercial BCAAs pumped full of artificial stuff to mask the genearally unpleasant taste of Branched Chain Amino Acids. My recommendation for those who don't like the taste would be to mix your BCAAs in with your Pre-Workout or Hydrate & Recover. I personally mix my Pineapple or Blood Orange BCAAs with our Watermelon Lime Brute Force Pre-Workout before hitting the gym. As always, we have a 30 day satisfaction guarantee so if this recommendation doesn't work for you, we will absolutely exchange or refund you if you reach out to us via phone at 1.800.300.1215 or email at contactus@wildernessathlete.com. Thanks again and keep working hard!

Stay Wild,
Ethan
