Posted by Josh Hachat on
There are a lot of supplements these days and people can get overwhelmed on what to take, and how to take them. Point blank, BCAAs should be in everyone’s workout program! They provide multiple training benefits, especially if you’re trying to build muscle. For those training almost every day BCAAs should be a staple in your training regimen. The benefits of BCAAs are many, especially Beast Sports' new BCAA 2:1:1 with InstAminos and Tart Cherry Powder.
So, what are amino acids and BCAAs and why do I need them?
Amino acids are the building blocks of protein and a large part of our body. Muscle, tissue and cells are made up of aminos. Branched chain amino acids (BCAAs) are essential amino acids that are made up of:
