This article focuses upon what else can be addes to your bcaas pre workput to ensure you maximize your efforts and gains from training hard.

The first ingredient is creatine.


what is creatine?

Creatine occurs naturally in the body and comes from food sources like beef. Creatine may replenish your energy reserves during resistance training.
Creatine works by saturating your muscles with a high-energy compound called creatine phosphate, and it can be used by the body as an immediate energy supply when you need to push out those last few reps in the gym. Creatine also hydrates muscle cells with water, promoting muscle fiber growth
When those creatine phosphate stores run out, you risk cutting your workout short, so don't be depleted in the gym and always be prepared by adding creatine to your supplement line

Creatine has hugely advanced over the past decade, origanting in the form of monohydrate and then advancing to ehtyl ester, and then the ph buffered Kre-alkaline creatine. creatine studies are advancing every six months with a new more efficient transport method of increasing creatine uptake into the system.

Creatine monohydrate has been suggested to be effective in increasing lean muscle mass, muscle strength and athletic performance. Creatine is naturally occurring in meat and other food sources, but monohydrate is the best form because it contains more creatine than any other form. Creatine monohydrate is known as bodybuilding's ultimate supplement, and for good reason


At present- creatine monohydrate is now almost always pharmacuetical grade and of the purest and highest quality, any of the preworkout supplements that aren't using pharmacueitical grade are skimping on costs and immediately in my opinion are substandard.

Most preworkout supplements stack creatine with beta alanine as again this is a fatigue resisting amino acid.

What does beta alanine actually do?


Beta-alanine is the rate-limiting enzyme in the synthesis of carnosine. In other words, the amount of carnosine your body produces is directly dependent on the amount of beta-alanine available. Without sufficient beta-alanine, carnosine synthesis is limited. So why is carnosine important?Carnosine, which is composed of histidine + beta-alanine, helps buffer the acidity produced by hydrogen ion accumulation. Delaying acid production helps delay muscular fatigue allowing you to train at a higher intensity while also improving recovery between high-intensity exercise sets or intervals.Carnosine is naturally found in the brain, heart, kidney, stomach and skeletal muscle (type II, fast twitch muscle, the kind that is engaged in sprinting and other explosive movements).In theory it would make more sense to go straight for the good stuff and ingest carnosine without fooling with beta-alanine. However, when carnosine enters the digestive system, it's broken down then reformed.Therefore, carnosine can't be taken up into the muscle intact. In addition, studies suggest that taking beta-alanine produces more carnosine in the muscle than if you tried to supplement with carnosine itself.

The 3rd ingredient that is a key preworkout must is caffiene. Caffeine is a natural stimulant found in many things most people consume on a daily basis: coffee, soda, tea, and more. Caffeine takes effect on the central nervous system and different people may feel different levels of energy boost.

The final ingredient i feel a must is 1 ,3 dimethylamylamine (is a psychoactive drug not approved by the FDA and is banned around the world but not in the USA or UK) , this is a very strong stimulant that hugely increases focus and intensity in training, caution should however be taken to ensure the dosages of this drug are strictly adheered to as it is very potent.


The combos of these ingredients are found in usp labs jack3d, allmax's razorate, nutrex hemo rage black so if you want to maximise your workouts combine one of these products with a previously mentioned bcaa product.
