Give Your Workout a Power Boost
Do You Start to Fatigue Towards the End of Your Workout?
Are you looking for a way to ramp up your strength training and cardio?
When you exercise, especially at high intensities, your body accumulates a large number of hydrogen ions (H+) causing your muscles pH to drop (become more acidic). As a result, your strength decreases and causes you to fatigue. If you want to give your workout a power boost, try beta-alanine.
Benefits of Beta-Alanine Include:
- Increased muscular strength and power output
- Increased muscle mass
- Increased anaerobic endurance
- Increases aerobic endurance
- Delays muscular fatigue
Beta-alanine, a non-essential amino acid, can help you finish stronger. Medicine and Science in Sports & Exercise reported that volunteers who took beta-alanine put out 5% more power on average during an all-out sprint than those who took a dummy placebo pill. That can be enough to beat your workout buddy.
