What is BCAA 2:1:1 - BLACK? 

Sourced using only premium grade ingredients, this BCAA 2:1:1 - BLACK (previously known as BCAA 2:1:1) contains the optimal balance of leucine, isoleucine and valine in a 2:1:1 ratio. Also known as Branch Chain Amino Acids made up from Leucine, Isoleucine and Valine, they make up a unique premium blend of amino acids all in one convenient pouch. BCAAs are commonly found in different forms of blends depending on which amino acid is more present than others. BCAAs are building blocks of protein and muscle, helping them to recover and repair after physical activities. When exercising, your body can often go into a catabolic state, meaning that you start to use and break down tissue such as fats and muscle to produce energy for muscle contractions. 

Although this may sound good that your body is using unwanted fat, in fact, it can be the complete opposite and you can begin to lose muscle as your body breaks down proteins instead as an energy source. 

Unfortunately, you can't stop protein breakdown, however by increasing the rate of protein synthesis compared to protein breakdown helps to build muscle and reduce that dreaded muscle loss. Essentially - that feeling, the day after leg day, and you're struggling to do the simple things in life. Your legs haven't recovered and now you're suffering the consequences. Surely for hitting a PB, you don't deserve this? 

What's in BCAA 2:1:1 - BLACK? 

Unique Amino Acid Blend BCAAs help provide the body with a supply of amino acids. This unique blend contains three main amino acids, which are sometimes difficult to understand. In our BCAA powder, the amino acids included are: 

  1. Leucine Isoleucine 
  2. Valine 
  3. Valine

Our BCAAs are instantised so they dissolve easily in water and are available in refreshing flavours including Berry Blitz. 

It's said that sipping on BCAAs during a workout can help delay onset fatigue and give you that mental and physical boost during your workout. Maintaining high levels of BCAA throughout the day is essential to stop your body from using muscle protein as fuel, and use fat stores instead. Working out increase muscle stress, giving your body the additional amino acids before and after can reduce tiredness.

We recommend that you take BCAA 2:1:1 - BLACK 30-45 minutes prior to working out to allow your body to absorb and direct them to your muscles.

  1. Blends well with the right supplement

    Rating
    I bought the unflavoured BCAA, along with unflavoured creatine monohydrate to add to my protein shakes. It didn’t blend well with my protein, but it works really nicely with the Berry Blast 100% Glutamine.
  2. Great Stuff!

    Rating
    I have tried both the raspberry and orange flavours and have been very happy with both. Both have a nice taste that isn't too strong and makes drinking it very easy. Mixes very well and don't even use a shaker most of the time!!!
  3. Great Stuffs

    Rating
    I use this as pre-workout with some Beta-Alanine. And as intra-workout without anything added. Blue Raspberry Juice has been pretty nice. Mixes well and isn't too sweet so it's pretty easy to drink. Gonna try some other flavours now!!
  4. Blue Raspberry mmm

    Rating
    The new flavour is great! I use it to give smoothies a bit of a kick!
  5. So good!

    Rating
    Tried the raspberry and was very impressed! Mixes easy and tastes good! Will definitely be trying the others now!
