HMB Reduces Muscle Damage Associated With Exercise, Which Shortens Recovery Time

It's as true for the casual athlete as it is for the serious competitor: people really feel a workout the next day. And for many, that workout could be as minor as a heavy set of weekend chores.

Yet, HMB is shown to benefit anyone involved in strenuous activity by reducing the effects of a "workout hangover."

With HMB, people may still notice those "muscles they never knew they had," only they'll feel less sore. Plus, in the next workout, they'll have increased strength.

HMB minimizes muscle damage during hard exercise by supplying the material muscle cells need to synthesize enough cholesterol to improve the stability of the cell membrane under stress. This reduces muscle damage (leakage) as measured by a reduction of muscle damage markers such as creatine phosphokinase (CPK) in the blood stream.

And remember - it's not hype; it's consistently proven in clinical studies.

From the serious athlete to the conscientious exerciser who works out for the health of it, the evidence is growing that HMB is a nutritional supplement that has yet to reach its full potential.

For more information on HMB:

• HMB shifts the balance of protein synthesis, tipping the scale in muscle's favor
• HMB doubles the effects of weight training
• HMB reduces muscle damage associated with exercise, which shortens recovery time
• HMB improves aerobic performance for runners, cyclists, and triathletes
• Clinical research shows HMB is a safe, effective way for the casual athlete to maximize the health benefits of exercise
