HMB

MEGA LEAN MUSCLE WEIGHT & STRENGTH GAIN

HMB (beta-hydroxy beta metylbutyrate) is a metabolite of the amino acid leucine and is also produced naturally by the body. It occurs in small amounts in some protein-rich foods such as fish and milk. HMB is ideal for use by all athletes wanting to gain lean muscle size and strength, including bodybuilders, rugby players, sprinters and other strength athletes. HMB is also used widely by endurance athletes, such as runners, cyclists and tri-athletes, as it reduces muscle damage following long periods of exercise, and can speed up recovery between training sessions.

Every muscle in your body is made up of millions of muscle cells. When you exercise, these cells are subject to tremendous amounts of stress, which in turn, cause what is known as micro-trauma, within the muscle. Protein then leaks continuously from these damaged cells until they are repaired several days later. In simple terms, HMB plugs the leaks in muscle cells, leading to greater gains in lean mass, muscle strength and a reduction in muscle damage during periods of intense training.

HMB has been the subject of scientific scrutiny since the mid 1990's, and several studies report impressive findings. For example, a team of researchers followed a group of men for three weeks. Gains in lean muscle were almost three times greater in the group using HMB. In addition, muscle strength doubled in the HMB group.

Researchers at an American University tested two groups of runners (one group using beta-hydroxy beta metylbutyrate, while the others took a 'dummy' supplement). After six weeks of supplementation, both groups took part in a 20-kilometer run. One day after the run, cell damage was 58% higher in the subjects not using beta-hydroxy beta metylbutyrate. The positive effect of beta-hydroxy beta metylbutyrate supplementation was still present four days after the run, with beta-hydroxy beta metylbutyrate users showing 9% less muscle damage. beta-hydroxy beta metylbutyrate = HMB.

Research Backed Proven Supplement:

2003 Effect of dietary supplements on lean mass and strength gains with resistance exercise: A meta-analysis. Nissen, S. and R. Sharp. J. Appl. Physiol. 94:651-659. In this meta-analysis of research on over 250 supplements, only beta-hydroxy beta metylbutyrate and Creatine were shown to significantly increase lean and strength gains with exercise. The analysis showed that beta-hydroxy beta metylbutyrate increased strength the most while Creatine increased lean the most.
2001 Creatine and ß-hydroxy-ß-methylbutyrate (HMB) additively increase lean body mass and muscle strength during a weight- training program. Jówko, E., P. Ostaszewski, M. Jank, J. Sacharuk, A. Zieniewicz, J. Wilczak, and S. Nissen. Nutrition 17:558-566. This study showed that beta-hydroxy beta metylbutyrate combined with Creatine supplementation results in even greater strength and lean gains than either beta-hydroxy beta metylbutyrate or Creatine supplementation alone.
2001 Body composition in 70-year-old adults responds to dietary ß-hydroxy-ß-methylbutyrate similarly to that of young adults. Vukovich, M.D., N.B. Stubbs, and R.M. Bohlken. J. Nutr. 131:2049-2052. In this study, beta-hydroxy beta metylbutyrate tended to increase strength and lean mass while significantly increasing fat loss in older adults.
2000 Nutritional supplementation of the leucine metabolite ß-hydroxy-ß-methylbutyrate during resistance training. Panton, L.B., J.A. Rathmacher, S. Baier, and S. Nissen. Nutrition 16:734-739. Two studies are reported which showed that regardless of gender or prior training, beta-hydroxy beta metylbutyrate increases strength and minimizes muscle damage.
2001 The effect of ß-hydroxy-ß-methylbutyrate on VO2 peak and lactate threshold in endurance-trained cyclists. Vukovich, M.D., and G.D. Dreifort. J. Strength and Conditioning Res. 15:491-497. This switchback study showed that beta-hydroxy beta metylbutyrate supplementation increased endurance as measured by VO2 peak and lactate threshold.

HMB prevents muscle tissue breakdown that can occur subsequent to strenuous exercise and therefore boosts strength levels and enhances gains in muscle size. It assists the body minimising protein breakdown that can occur subsequent to intense exercise. By doing so, HMB has been shown to help the sportsmen and woman recover faster from exercise, which leads to greater gains in muscle size and strength. Power athletes supplementing with HMB have shown increases in muscle mass and power of up to 14%, without negatively affecting cardiovascular fitness. Recovery time between workouts was also significantly reduced.
