GN EAA Xtreme - 500g

EAA EXTREME
An anabolic and anti-catabolic powerhouse for use before, during and after training, or any other time of day you need a boost of anabolic amino acids. Unlike BCAAs, EAA Xtreme not only stimulates your protein synthesis to the maximum, but also provides you with all the building blocks you need for maximum muscle growth.

Product highlights

• In contrast to BCAAs, provides your body with ALL the amino acids it needs for muscle building and regeneration
• Stimulating protein synthesis for faster muscle regeneration and maximum muscle building
• Prevents a training-induced catabolic environment and thus maximally protects your hard-earned muscle mass
• Accelerates recovery between sets and after training to give you longer and more frequent training sessions without overtraining
• Promotes better blood flow to your muscles to support their supply of nutrients, oxygen and the body's own anabolic hormones
• Glycogen-sparing effect through increased use of body fat as an energy source for more training energy
• Increases your muscle endurance and delays the onset of fatigue to give you more intense and productive training sessions
• Promotes focus and ability to concentrate during training
• Has a pleasant, stimulating effect without being unnecessarily stimulating
• No strain on the digestive tract and can therefore be used directly before and during training
• Fastest possible absorption for maximum and targeted effect
• Can stimulate the loss of body fat and increase your training energy during diet and competition preparation
• Optimal hydration of your hard-working muscles through electrolytes and other hydration-promoting ingredients
• Support immune function

Why is EAA Xtreme vastly superior to BCAAs and whey protein, especially at the critical times before, during and after training?
Lately you've been hearing more and more people say that BCAAs are completely useless and that whey protein is all you need for optimal protein supply during the critical time window around your training. Even if there might be a grain of truth in this statement, it represents an overly simplistic generalization that does not correspond to the facts. In order to understand this better, you need to know what processes take place in your body during and after a hard and intensive training session and what benefits there are from supplying your body with amino acids during this period.
Even if it is clear to most people that muscles do not grow during training, but only during the regeneration phase after training, many are not aware that during hard and intensive training sessions, training-induced protein breakdown initially creates a catabolic environment in which certain... Amounts of muscle protein are broken down and metabolized. This catabolic state lasts for a while after training before the right post-workout supplementation or diet leads to an anabolic state by stimulating protein synthesis, which results in the repair of damaged muscle fibers and muscle building. In other words, you first lose some muscle mass and then ideally build up more new muscle mass.
By specifically supplying your body with amino acids before and during training, you can greatly mitigate this catabolic environment and, ideally, even prevent it completely. This is where, among other things, the stimulation of protein synthesis induced by BCAAs and especially leucine via activation of the mTOR pathway comes into play.
