BCAA is a supplement with branched-chain amino acids that helps speed up recovery, protect the muscles and stimulate muscle building after training. The product is particularly suitable for horses that feel tired or stiff after exercise or competition.
BCAA contains essential branched-chain amino acids that the horse’s body cannot produce on its own and therefore must be supplied through feed. Unlike many other amino acids, BCAAs are absorbed directly into the muscles without first being broken down, allowing the body to quickly begin recovery and muscle building after exertion.
During training, the horse’s entire central nervous system is affected while the levels of BCAA in the body decrease. By adding BCAA in connection with training, the horse’s recovery can be improved, mental focus supported and perceived exertion reduced. The horse recovers faster, feels more energetic and is ready for the next training session sooner.
BCAA also helps reduce exercise soreness and stiffness after work. Leucine, which is an important part of BCAA, helps activate protein synthesis and thereby supports the body’s natural muscle building and recovery.
BCAA also acts as support for muscle building by increasing the levels of leucine in the blood. This signals the muscles to begin recovery and rebuilding after training. Training and BCAA therefore work together to provide more effective recovery and better muscle support.
The product can be used both as a daily supplement and as extra support during periods of intense training, competition or heavy workload.
Suitable for horses that:
• Train or compete regularly
• Need support for recovery
• Feel stiff or tired after work
• Need extra support during intensive training periods
