AP SPORTS REGIMEN BCAA + EAA + HYDRO

Fermented Vegan BCAA Blend (7000 mg)

Each serving contains 7000 milligrams of vegan BCAAs, including:

• Leucine
• Isoleucine
• Valine

These three amino acids are referred to as branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs). They are essential amino acids that your body typically gets from meat and dairy products. Increasing your intake of BCAAs helps stimulate protein synthesis, which is necessary for repairing muscle damage after exercise. A complete source of protein contains all three BCAAs, along with the other amino acids listed below.

Leucine (3500 mg)

Leucine is the most necessary amino acid for gaining muscle. It is directly responsible for activating the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR), which is the pathway that stimulates protein synthesis.

Isoleucine (1750 mg)

Isoleucine is another BCAA and is responsible for aiding muscle repair and growth. It is also an important part of muscle metabolism. Isoleucine ensures that your muscles receive enough fuel for a hard workout.

Valine (1750 mg)

Valine is the third BCAA, making it an important amino acid for supporting lean muscle mass building and muscle repair. It helps deliver more glucose to your muscles, which increases your muscle metabolism. It is especially beneficial for high-intensity training, as it facilitates greater muscle development.

Essential Amino Acids (EAA) Blend (3500 mg)

To give you a full source of protein, the formula includes the six remaining essential amino acids:

• Lysine
• Threonine
• Phenylalanine
• Tryptophan
• Methionine
• Histidine

The combination of amino acids boosts your body’s ability to repair muscle tissue while offering a wide range of benefits for enhancing your workouts.

Lysine (1500 mg)

Lysine is often included in workout supplements due to its ability to strengthen tendons, cartilage, ligaments, and bones.

Studies also indicate that lysine may lower the production of the stress hormone cortisol, which decreases muscle tension and the buildup of lactic acid. Limiting lactic acid and muscle tension increases your ability to recover from an intense workout.

Threonine (1200 mg)

Threonine is an essential amino acid that helps support the production of glycine and serine. Glycine and serine are required for your body to produce collagen and muscle tissue. Ensuring that you receive enough of this amino acid helps protect connective tissues and muscle, which aids muscle recovery.

Phenylalanine (500 mg)

Phenylalanine is another essential amino acid that increases your ability to build muscle. It may also stimulate body fat oxidation, which allows you to burn more fat during intense training. Phenylalanine is also necessary to produce certain hormones, such as dopamine and the hormones responsible for your body’s fight or flight response.

Tryptophan (100 mg)

Tryptophan helps stimulate the production of serotonin, melatonin, and other important molecules. Serotonin and melatonin levels influence your mood and cognitive abilities. Providing your body with optimal levels of these hormones keeps your mood balanced and your mind focused.

Methionine (100 mg)

Methionine is an essential amino acid found in eggs, seafood, and meat. It helps increase your body’s ability to repair damaged tissue, including muscle tissue. It may also strengthen your bones, hair, and nails, as it is a sulfur-containing amino acid. Studies suggest that methionine may also help detoxify the body by removing heavy metals from your digestive system.

Histidine (100 mg)

Histidine is an essential amino acid that supports muscle growth and tissue repair. It is known to protect the fatty tissue that shields nerves from damage. It may also boost your immune system due to its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties.

Electrolyte Blend (500 mg)

Along with BCAAs and EAAs, this formula contains a multi-mineral complex called Aquamin. It is packed with calcium, magnesium, and 72 trace minerals to help replenish your electrolytes. The electrolyte blend also includes 125 mg of Himalayan pink salt to aid hydration by increasing natural salt levels.
