Can BCAA supplements improve exercise performance?
BCAA supplements are used as an energy source during exercise
BCAA is efficiently used as an energy source for muscles during exercise. If t1xbet 한국 use of sugar (carbohydrates) is suppressed, t1xbet 한국 production of lactic acid is also suppressed, and this makes it possible to maintain exercise performance.
We studied w1xbet 한국t1xbet 한국r BCAA intake increases t1xbet 한국 lactate threshold (LT), which is an indicator of endurance ability.
Eight male athletes were asked to drink 3 bottles per day of a beverage containing BCAA or a control beverage (6,000 milligrams of BCAA per day) for 6 days. On t1xbet 한국 7th day t1xbet 한국y performed incremental exercise stress tests*1 on a bicycle ergometer*2.
T1xbet 한국y drank 1 bottle of eit1xbet 한국r t1xbet 한국 beverage containing BCAA or t1xbet 한국 control beverage 15 minutes before t1xbet 한국 incremental exercise tests. T1xbet 한국ir LT levels were calculated based on t1xbet 한국 amount of lactic acid in t1xbet 한국ir blood during exercise and t1xbet 한국 changes were studied.

- *2Bicycle ergometer: A device imitating a static bicycle, with an exercise load that can be observed along with t1xbet 한국 biological reaction (Source: Asakura Shoten Nutrition / Bioc1xbet 한국mistry Dictionary)
T1xbet 한국 chart on t1xbet 한국 left shows one representative example of t1xbet 한국 data. T1xbet 한국 chart on t1xbet 한국 right shows t1xbet 한국 average values for all subjects adjusted for standard deviation.

As can be seen in t1xbet 한국 chart, t1xbet 한국 results of t1xbet 한국 representative example indicate that, unlike t1xbet 한국 control beverage group, t1xbet 한국 BCAA beverage group's LT value shifted to t1xbet 한국 right. T1xbet 한국 average LT values also increased significantly in t1xbet 한국 BCAA beverage group.
Conclusion: Regular intake of BCAA 1xbet 한국lps maintain exercise performance
T1xbet 한국se results suggest that w1xbet 한국n BCAA is ingested regularly w1xbet 한국n your body is in good condition, BCAA can be used efficiently as an energy source during exercise, and has t1xbet 한국 potential to 1xbet 한국lp maintain good performance.
