Leucine: Your Magic Key To Bigger Muscles!


That's a fair comment there Josh.

Those small things can make a big differnece when you enter a plateau and your body just refuse to grow more, and in older people it seems to work better too i think becuse the hormon levels in older people starts to decrease.

Yeah I can understand that. I think Fadi does a great job with all his very in depth and massive articles that he puts up, but I find that alot of it goes over my head. I can see how people like Mattias and Fadi can use it being at the level they are, but for myself I am not at a level yet wher I am pushing to my max potential. I don't know if that sounds naive or stupid, it might to some.

I have no doubt that these things have benefits, don't get me wrong. I just feel that there is a lot of things I need to get spot on (Eating, Resting, Lifting) before I can use these things to their full potential.

If I was to follow all of Fadi's articles I would need a PA to take care of all of my tablet and substance taking.

EDIT: I am not having a go at anyone who takes all of this stuff. I just feel the basics should be sorted before these avenues are exhausted.

In the end it´s hard training and good nutrition thats counts so it doesn´t sound naive or stupid mate.

From a very interesting study I read awhile ago, it showed that BCAAs done promote muscle synthesis, but rather, prevent muscle catablism.

EAAS were the ones that promoted muscle synthesis.
 
Got a link to the whole study ?

Posting just an abstract dosnt mean the results and conclusive. I would like to see how the study was conducted, and if the results were statistically significant (i do a lot of analysis of economic studies)

It would also be interesting to compare this to the other studies i have seen. Ill try to find some links for me.
 
Steve, my emphasis throughout has been on the power of leucine and not the other two amino acids in the BCAA trio. The article title was leucine, and yes leucine is part of the trio. Are you suggesting that leucine does not promote muscle synthesis?
