Beta alanine is the limiting factor in the production of the intra-muscular buffer carnosine. An increase in carnosine decreases the rate at which lactic acid is produced, resulting in a substantially extended period of muscular effort, particularly during anaerobic exercise. Key Features: Beta Alanine is designed to improve anaerobic performance by increasing the intra muscular buffers. Helps optimise muscle performance especially in explosive efforts such as sprinting. It is a naturally high amino acid found in large doses in turkey meat and North Atlantic prawns. Users of Beta Alanine report similar effects to creatine loading but without the weight gain often associated with creatine. Size: 180g powder.
