Speed Up Your Fat Loss And Muscle Growth With Beta-Alanine – The New Creatine!

You already know that creatine is one of the must-have supplements for delivering fast results from your fitness program but have you heard about the latest new kid on the block: Beta-Alanine?

The Results Are in!

An exciting new study has just been completed where the effects of beta-alanine supplementation on endurance and body composition have been analysed.

The study, published in the Journal of the International Society of Sports Nutrition, was set up to test and evaluate the effects of combining High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) with beta-alanine supplementation. The focus was on measuring the participants’ endurance performance, aerobic metabolism and lean body mass.

Confirmed that HIIT delivers fast results

We already know that using HIIT as part of your fitness & exercise program can have dramatic results, usually resulting in fast fat loss and delivering quick results in lean body mass. The study confirmed this link and also supported the fact that aerobic and endurance levels are increased overall when HIIT is used as part of your overall fitness regime. In fact they even say that the effects of HIIT can be seen in as little as 3 weeks after introducing it into your program.

Where Does Beta-Alanine Fit In To This?

So where does Beta-alanine come into all this? Well, here’s the low down. When you perform HIIT, you’re using energy fast. As you burn energy, your muscles create by-products which eventually result in muscle-fatigue as your body simply can’t get them away from your muscles fast enough.

The study showed that supplementation with beta-alanine significantly increased the body’s ability to get rid of these by-products which meant more intense exercise could be performed for a longer period.

Specifics Were Measured And Results Were Amazing!

The addition of beta-alanine enhanced results in a number of areas measured, including:

* Total amount of work performed
* Time taken to reach exhaustion
* VO₂ peak
* Lean Body Mass

Beta-alanine supplementation resulted in up to a 53% improvement of total work done during the first three weeks of training and a 32% improvement in weeks 4-6. Whatever your training program, the study suggests that supplementation with beta-alanine will deliver spectacular results!

Conclusion

In conclusion the study suggests that supplementing with beta-alanine can significantly increase muscular endurance by reducing the effects of muscle fatigue caused by the intramuscular by-products of intense exercise. This can lead to greater gains in strength, aerobic performance and lean body mass – in other words you can exercise harder & longer, and transform that ugly fat into lean muscle faster!

Now Add It To Your Fitness Program!

So, the message seems clear. You already know that your fitness regime should be a mix of weights (resistance) training and cardio (aerobic) training with the cardio including a healthy mix of HIIT. Add beta-alanine to your supplement stack alongside your creatine, and watch your body transform before your eyes!
