Champion Nutrition Amino Shooter Product Information
Stimulant Free Amino Shooter
Muscle is made of
protein, and amino acids are the building blocks used to make that
muscle protein. Most of these amino acids can be created by your body as
needed except for the essential amino acids (EAA's). These you need to
get from protein-rich foods in your diet, such as meat, fish, eggs, soy,
dairy products or your protein shakes. Problem is all of these may have
an excess amount of calories associated with them depending on how much
you eat. Not with Amino Shooter - Amino Shooter is just pure free-form
essential amino acids that you mix in water and drink giving you the potential found in a protein shake, but with far less calories
per gram.
- Increase Protein Synthesis and Recovery Rate!
- Reduce
Muscle Breakdown resulting from exercise!
- Increase Caloric
Efficiency for more muscle with less fat!
- Reduce Fatigue and
Soreness!
Amino Shooter is an entirely new approach to
the formulation and use of tried and true amino acids. It is based on
the latest research into previously unknown actions of the Essential
Amino Acids (EAA's). Amino acids make up almost the entire structure of
your body's muscle and tissues (except for fats). Individual amino acid
supplements have been around for thirty years, yet this supplement could
not have been designed even five years ago - The knowledge of how to
combine certain amino acids to yield the benefits shown by these recent
studies did not yet exist.
What
are those newly discovered benefits? Your body is made up of
about 22 amino acids. Most of these can be created by the body as
needed, except for the nine Essential Amino Acids (EAA's) which you must
receive directly from the food you eat. A recent group of studies
created excitement among researchers when they showed that muscle growth
(muscle protein synthesis) is directly proportional to the amount of
Essential Amino Acids in your blood stream during the critical hours of
training and recovery, if you Double your EAA's you can more than double
your rate of growth and recovery. In one study researchers infused
Essential Amino Acids into subject's blood stream and found a direct and
powerful relationship between the amount of EAA's in the blood stream
and protein synthesis! Doubling the blood EAA level from 1.3 (mmol/l) to
2.6 (mmol/l) resulted in nearly a four-time increase in protein
synthesis!
Amino Acids reduce the amount of muscle breakdown
that results from training. When you begin training, your body signals
for enzymes that tear up your hard-earned muscle. This damage continues
to accelerate for several hours after exercise even though you are
eating and resting. If you are having trouble making gains, chances are
that virtually 100% of your recovery is spent regenerating this damaged
muscle, leaving nothing for growth. A recent study showed nearly a 50%
reduction in the amount of post-exercise muscle damage with a 6 gram
dose of the EAA, Leucine, exactly the amount in two servings of Amino
Shooter.
Amino Shooter is a dramatic improvement in
caloric efficiency when compared to common protein supplements - this
makes Amino Shooter the most calorically efficient supplement on the
market today! Caloric Efficiency is defined as the ratio of muscle
protein synthesis to calories consumed. Higher caloric efficiency means
you will gain more muscle and less fat, or if you are dieting, you will
lose more fat and less muscle. As an example, a recent study compared 6
grams of pure EAA's to 6 grams of a mixed Essential and Non Essential
amino acid blend and found that the pure EAA's stimulated double the
muscle growth!
In another study, a group of subjects were
given 18 grams of EAA's, while a second group received 18 grams of
EAA's along with 22 grams of NAA's, which is similar to a normal protein
serving. While calories were more than double in the second group, the
amount of protein synthesis was identical for both groups! It is clear
that the non-essential amino acids did nothing to enhance muscle growth,
they are simply extra calories. It was only the essential amino acids
that caused muscle growth! Keep in mind, that the second ate what is
considered an idealized protein. It contained no carbohydrate or fat, it
was already in the form of amino acids with the perfect EAA to NAA
ratio and it was 100% bio-available. Yet it was not as efficient as pure
EAA's. Calculations based whey formulations currently on the market
show an even lower caloric efficiency, making Amino Shooter as much as
300% better. The bottom line is that athletes can now grow faster while
consuming fewer calories and gaining less fat. By using Amino Shooter
bodybuilders can stay leaner while growing in the off-season, and
greatly increase their ability to become ripped during pre-contest
dieting. Plus, taking quality aminos acids provide a significant
reduction in fatigue and soreness. By reducing muscle breakdown EAA's
also reduce the inflammatory process that causes soreness. The same
inflammation that causes soreness also signals cortisol production, a
hormone that causes muscle loss, fat gain, and inhibits recovery.
Reducing this cortisol spike after training means you recover faster and
build more muscle. Amino Shooter also helps reduce central nervous
system fatigue during training - you will be able to train harder,
longer, and create a greater stimulus for muscle growth. By decreasing
the impact of all these stress factors Amino Shooter also helps reduce
the potential for overtraining.
