Properties and composition of the Usplabs Modern BCAA amino acid complex

Modern BCAA from USPlabs is considered one of the most famous amino acid complex preparations on the market for nutrition for athletes. The advantage of the drug is the specific ratio of leucine, isoleucine and valine, such as 8:1:1, as well as the possibility of taking large doses (one dose contains up to 15 grams of BCAA). Modern BCAA is used both in cases of gaining muscle tissue volume and in the process of losing weight. In the first case, it is possible to increase muscle mass in a short time, and in the second, the relief increases while maintaining the accumulated volumes, regardless of the intensity of sports activities.

Features of the Modern BCAA product

This complex differs in the proportion of amino acids. Modern's 8:1:1 ratio of BCAA is based on a large amount of leucine. According to the manufacturer, this amino acid is the main one in building muscles. The more leucine, the more actively the body will create new muscle fiber cells.

This complex perfectly prevents muscle destruction as a result of heavy training. Modern BCAA works as an additional source of energy for muscles. The product was supplied with electrolytes and additional amino acids, namely alanine, glycine, lysine. It also contains sustamine, which plays an important role in restoration processes at the cellular level.

USPLabs Modern BCAA+ Complex contains a whopping 15 grams of amino acids per serving. Another feature of this product is the absence of carbohydrates, so it is relevant for professional athletes even during such a complex and important stage as drying. By the way, there is also no caffeine or other controversially beneficial stimulants.

Modern BCAA will be relevant for those who are struggling with excess weight. If this supplement is used in combination with intense training that includes aerobic and anaerobic exercise, plus a low-carb diet, you can achieve excellent results with this complex, because it promotes fat burning, provides energy and prevents muscle breakdown.

USPLabs Modern BCAA reviews

Before trying this supplement myself, I decided to ask the opinions of others, and in general it became interesting what contingent of athletes buys this sports nutrition... After surfing the Internet to evaluate this supplement, I saw quite a lot of interesting things. In particular, many reviews about Modern BCAA were written even by runners, i.e. those who are closely involved in athletics. Moreover, their assessments are mostly only positive, although it is generally difficult to get a negative effect from BCAAs)

And since we’re talking about other people’s reviews, here are a few encouraging photos from Instagram:

There are many reviews about this product from bodybuilders of all levels and ages. For example, it was noted that these amino acids “excellently help restore the body after a hard workout and the next day you don’t feel like a helpless piece of meat that hurts and doesn’t want anything at all.” You can find a bunch more reviews in this spirit. And of course, there were those who wrote that BCAA do not work, but I am sure that these people have this opinion about absolutely any supplement, since they take it incorrectly.

BCAA is a difficult supplement to feel when it comes to results. If you take more than 30g per day, you will notice that you recover faster, become drier (with the right diet), and generally feel better. If you take less than 30 g, then this is also a benefit for your body, but the effect is less noticeable. I always take 30 g or more, so I see the result, which, of course, is supported by a huge sports nutrition complex).

Flavors and packaging

Modern BCAA can be found in packages of 30 servings (535 grams) and 75 servings (1.34 kg). The selection of flavors is impressive. USP Labs decided to pamper us with flavors, namely:

• Orange.
• Berry explosion.
• Peach tea.
• Melon.
• Cherry lemonade.
• Mango-orange.
• Raspberry lemonade.
• Green apple.
• Pineapple-strawberry.
• Grape.
• Watermelon.
• Fruit punch.
• Blackberry.

The manufacturer pays great attention to the taste of the products. All USPlabs brand supplements have a natural taste.

Taste qualities

The taste qualities of Usplabs modern bcaa deserve special attention. Everything here is also at the highest level. There are many different flavors to choose from - watermelon, grape gum, fruit punch and others. In general, there is plenty to choose from. Most bodybuilders speak highly of the taste of the complex and are happy to take the finished mixture. After preparation, the taste of the drink turns out to be universal - something between sweet and bitter. What is important is that the supplement does not contain any flavorings or dyes.

Advantages and disadvantages

Modern BCAA is absorbed almost instantly, and all because the liver does not participate in the absorption of BCAA; these biological elements are metabolized directly into muscle tissue. Since a third of the muscle cell consists of these amino acids, this complex with alanine, glycine, and lysine provides the muscles with powerful nutrition. The high ratio of leucine compared to other components makes this complex a fast and effective means for gaining quality mass.

Modern BCAA contains electrolytes. These components are valuable for humans and beneficial for the whole body. These elements conduct electrical impulses and improve or normalize the functioning of the heart, muscles and nerves. Unfortunately, during physical activity they quickly disappear with sweat, so their replenishment is the most important task of every athlete, because their deficiency can provoke spasms, cramps and even muscle pain and headaches.

The components that were mentioned earlier, namely alanine, glycine, lysine, sustamine, although only auxiliary ingredients, play no less important role than the BCAA themselves. For example, Sustamine dipeptide is extremely important for rapid muscle growth. Its second task can be considered strengthening the immune system. This element also provides better hydration of cells.

Much has already been said about glycine, because it is very important for humans. Its presence in the complex is aimed at normalizing brain function and intracellular processes in muscle tissue. This amino acid is aimed at improving sleep and reducing the likelihood of chronic fatigue. A sufficient amount of this substance is involved in protecting the body from viral infections. For example, it helps reduce the activity of herpes infection. USPlabs uses expensive and high-quality ingredients to create the impeccable taste of Modern BCAA+ and its other products.

A little-known anabolic pathway - mTOR

If you've never heard of mTOR (and even if you have), listen carefully and listen well, as it is one of the highest rated anabolic protein synthesis factors known to man. And chances are, you're not even close to maximizing your enormous potential. mTOR (mammalian target of rapamycin) is a proline-directed serine-threonine protein kinase responsible for a wide range of physiological and metabolic functions in several cell types, including both adipocytes (fat cells) and myocytes (muscle cells).

Among its many functions, mTOR is responsible for hypertrophic growth (eg, muscle cell enlargement), protein synthesis, and tissue morphogenesis. As a result, components that aim to regulate mTOR production have been sought for quite some time. A wide range of evidence suggests that amino acids are capable of directly regulating mTOR signaling pathways in skeletal muscle, including the possibility that they activate some of the mTOR-dependent insulin/growth factor-increasing cellular signaling elements.

However, the same data show that amino acids do not trigger the activation of mTOR signaling pathways uniformly, and there is evidence that the mechanism of mTOR activation may be the entire matrix of amino acids or one specific amino acid. In particular, the amino acid leucine is indicated as the main one responsible for the activation of branched chain amino acids causing the activation of mTOR signaling pathways and therefore the mTOR effect, in contrast, triggers protein synthesis. This hypothesis arose because studies have shown that most effects of amino acids on mTOR signaling are abolished by decreasing leucine concentrations or increased by leucine addition, and to a lesser extent than other branched chain amino acids.

In other words, leucine is king, but it should also be mentioned that the other two amino acids, isoleucine and valine, need to be present to maximize results. BCAA ratio 8:1:1

With that said, we formulated USPlabs Modern BCAA™ with an 8-1-1: Leucine-Isoleucine-Valine ratio. Results and implications

As you know, many people double, triple, or even quadruple their BCAA dosage at 2:1:1 and 4:1:1 ratios to achieve better results. Given the fact that leucine is the most responsible amino acid for growth effects, especially in skeletal muscle, by having a formula with an 8:1:1 ratio, we eliminate the need for such increased doses. This provides additional benefits along with other benefits.

3 in, one out Another problem is amino acid transport and metabolism. All three branched chain amino acids—leucine, isoleucine, and valine—compete for the same transport systems. And as a result, the presence of high concentrations of the other two chained amino acids can lower intracellular leucine levels. Obviously this is not what you want. This is further compounded by the fact that once leucine is ingested, it first performs other structural roles unrelated to protein metabolism before activating the mTOR signaling pathway. As a result, BCAAs in a 2:1:1 or 4:1:1 ratio actually counteract the anabolic effects of the product, as these substrates are pitted against each other in competition for metabolism. Ultra-fine grind

Let's be honest, in the past and now you have to drink non-soluble BCAA in large granules. Of course, there are now instant BCAA's - but they are incredibly expensive and made with soy. I know you're tired of losing valuable product floating like a float or sticking to the sides of your shaker. That's why USPlabs Modern BCAA™ uses a pre-fine milling process that produces a highly miscible, incredibly light and fine powder! Plus, when you use USPlabs Modern BCAA™ in the gym, you won't have a BCAA or BCAA "stache" stuck to your teeth. Sustamine™

This product consists of glutamine dipeptide (L-alanyl-L-glutamine), which is more stable and much more water soluble than regular L-glutamine. These physicochemical properties alone may provide greater effectiveness than regular L-glutamine. However, the presence of a unique intestinal transporter in the dipeptide may also allow for increased amounts of glutamine in the bloodstream and in skeletal muscle compared to conventional free L-glutamine. When alanyl-glutamine was administered, higher glutamine concentrations were maintained in the blood plasma and skeletal muscles of animal models compared to the administration of free L-glutamine. This is very important because up to 65% of regular L-glutamine can be destroyed before it makes its way to the muscles. Will you pay full price for a whole to only get a quarter?

As mentioned, we added Sustamine to add more glutamine into the bloodstream, but I want you to be absolutely clear that we are not trying to win a "glutamine product of the year" award. USPlabs Modern BCAA™ is primarily a BCAA formula because BCAA is a complete product. If you're just looking for a bunch of ingredients that won't actually have any significant impact on your physique or performance, then USPlabs Modern BCAA™ is probably not for you. If you want an amazing BCAA product designed for those who truly understand how important amino acids are, then USPlabs Modern BCAA™ was made especially for you. Zero artificial colors and flavors

This is the hottest topic lately. If this is a small amount (for example, as in capsules), then no questions arise. Conversely, when you consume powdered supplements, they are loaded with artificial colors and flavors, which often leave you bloated, sluggish, and generally feeling unwell. The reason is that our body has no idea what to do with these chemicals. It can process small amounts, but once you cross a certain threshold, your body simply cannot handle them. Let's be honest, if BCAA stains the inside of your shaker, what do you think it leaves behind inside your body? And since we set out to make the best BCAA supplement, we simply couldn't produce a product that included them. Incredible taste

The BCAA supplements you've taken in the past have been disappointing. And while taste is a very subjective concept, we're pretty sure you won't believe you're drinking a naturally flavored BCAA product! You will want to drink it throughout the day!
