Progressive sports scientists now understand that the hours surrounding an intense workout are a unique window of opportunity; a time when the presence of certain nutrients will amplify the muscle-building, fat-loss response from exercise. The key to this nutrient-timing effect is to know when to introduce these nutrients at precisely the right time so that they stimulate cellular anabolic mechanisms that accelerate muscle recovery and growth. When nutrient timing is followed with precision, research shows that the immediate anabolic response can be as high as 400% [1]. Imagine, a 400% better effect from every workout! Simply by making sure you supply your body with the right nutritional material at the right time.
Step 1. Prime GH: Take 2-3 grams of GABA 30 minutes before your workout
Gamma Aminobutyric Acid (GABA) is a neurotransmitter within the body. As a supplement, GABA has been shown in research to significantly increase circulating GH levels in healthy people. A new study has shown that bodybuilders given a 2-3 gram dose of GABA before weight lifting exercise experienced a significantly higher GH response after the workout [2]. High GH concentrations (that are still within naturally occurring levels) are shown in research to provide dramatic improvements in muscle gains and fat loss [16]. To ensure your GH response from every workout is optimal, be sure to take 2-3 grams of GABA 30 minutes before Max-OT weight training and cardio. Well over 10 years ago AST was the first supplement company ever to bring pure GABA to athletes. So, beware of rip-offs and imitations.
