I believe that fitness enthusiasts will take some nutritional supplements more or less under the so-called conscience advice of coaches, friends around them or some video gods. But do you really know what they are? Do you know how they work? Do you know how to eat? Today, on the topic of fitness, we continue to talk about nutritional supplements. Today, we will talk about branched-chain amino acids and glutamine.

Branched-chain amino acids are abbreviated as BCAA in English. Glutamine and BCAA are put together because they are both amino acids. Amino acids are a kind of organic compounds containing amino groups and carboxyl groups, and they are the basic building blocks of protein, a biomacromolecule. Amino acids can be synthesized in plant or animal tissues, and can also be obtained by hydrolyzing protein.

It plays an important role in the process of tissue metabolism, growth, maintenance and repair. These amino acids can be extracted from natural foods and have similar effects on the body. So what are BCAA and glutamine? How to eat? What's the role? Both BCAA and glutamine can be ingested from food, which is helpful to accelerate the synthesis of protein and improve muscle quality.

It will also reduce muscle loss, which sounds great, but what is the specific embodiment? We don't talk about biology and chemistry. The specific function is that you recover faster after exercise, reduce muscle soreness, speed up muscle fiber repair, and exercise more vigorously the next day.

Generally speaking, BCAA is added to our protein powder, and many mainstream brands in the fitness industry will add about 5 grams of BCAA, which is enough for beginners. But for a long time, I found that BCAA and glutamine need to be added to my exercise intensity to speed up my recovery.

When you have become an avid fitness enthusiast, the intensity is very high every day, for example, one or two hours, then you need more BCAA and glutamine, because if you recover faster, you can ensure the exercise effect the next day. I have finished the action of BCAA and glutamine. How to take it?

Generally speaking, it can be used during or after training, and the formula and training in training can be used. The main components are BCAA and glutamine. Generally speaking, I start drinking BCAA and glutamine ten minutes after I start exercising or exercising. When you reach the peak of exercise, BCAA and glutamine will help your body to synthesize protein and slow down muscle decomposition.

Or you can choose to take it after exercise. When your body is in the recovery stage of fatigue and pain after exercise, it is most conducive to the absorption of nutrients, so it can also have a good effect after exercise. It can speed up your progress and make you exercise in a larger capacity and more groups.
