How to Get the Most Out of Amino Energy by Optimum Nutrition

A very common question we get asked from users of Amino Energy is “How can I get the most out of Amino Energy?” We at MAK Crew have put together this guide to help you maximise your muscle recovery with Amino Energy.

To clarify, BCAA (Branched-Chain Amino Acids) are a group of three amino acids (Leucine, Isoleucine, Valine) which are essential building blocks for your body to use to make proteins. The reason BCAAs are essential is because, unlike non-essential amino acids, your body cannot produce them and you must get them from your diet.

The purpose of Amino Energy is to help maintain your lean body mass with a calorie restricted diet. Amino Energy is not a solution to getting a lean body, hard work and dedication does!
