Beta-Alanine Product Details:

Beyond The Basics:

- 1.6 grams of Beta Alanine

- 550 mg of L-Histidine

- 4 Mineral Electrolytes

- Supports Carnosine Synthesis

During exercise, and especially high-intensity training, glucose and glycogen are broken down for energy. In the process, hydrogen ions (H+) are also produced within the muscles. H+ accumulation causes the muscles to become more acidic and ultimately leads to fatigue. Packed with Beta-Alanine, Histidine, and Phosphates, our Threshold formula is designed to help boost your intramuscular buffering system so that you can train harder, longer.

β-Alanine is an amino acid which is a precursor of carnosine, increasing its concentration in muscle cells.Carnosine increases muscle buffer capacity and raises the threshold of anaerobic (lactate threshold). Delaying the occurrence of fatigue and muscle damage, can substantially increase the efficiency of muscle and volume of work.

The effect of β-alanine is to increase muscle strength and endurance, both for aerobic exercise, as well as anaerobic. In addition, β-alanine is beneficial for increasing muscle mass, and used together with creatine exhibit synergism in obtaining the maximum strength and lean body mass.

Consume one serving first thing in the morning and a second serving approximately 30 minutes before your workout (or mid-afternoon on non-training days). Tips: The first few times that you use it, threshold may cause a tingling sensation on your skin. With continued use, the intensity of the sensation will decrease or disappear. For best results, use Threshold continuously for at least 8 weeks.
