The importance of proteins in Triathlon

Taking a source of quality protein and high digestibility and supplements of Branched Amino Acids or Glutamine help regenerate muscle mass quickly and effectively. 

Victory Endurance In this article, he tells us about the importance of proteins in the practice of endurance sports such as triathlon.

Proteins in the form of a supplement will help minimize muscle damage caused by exercise and recovery. Either in the form of protein or as amino acids. Taking a source of quality protein and high digestibility and supplements of Branched Amino Acids or Glutamine helpegenerate muscle mass quickly and effectively. 

During the training period we recommend that you include in your diet between 112 and 125g of protein (In addition to the loads of essential carbohydrates). For later, of the trainings or after the triathlons, we recommend a milkshake post-training containing a proportion of 70% of carbohydrates and 30% of proteins. To calculate the amount needed, add 1 gram for each kilogram of body weight. You want it to be a rapid absorption, therefore, the protein should be whey that dissolves well and assimilates quickly. In this case we recommend you Isolate Crystal Whey, protein isolate of rapid assimilation with less than one 1% of carbohydrates, fats and lactose.
 

Branched amino acids (valine, leucine and isoleucine) are one of the supplements that works best and should not be missed in any long distance athlete and have two important functions in triathletes: They form the bricks to restore muscle mass catabolized during very long exercises . And on the other hand, they prevent the fall of the amino acid level in plasma and delays the appearance of fatigue, very important factor in very demanding training sessions or competitive tests.

The recommended daily dose of BCAA's is 100mg / kg body weight for adults, taken 15-30 'before training to avoid fatigue. Amino Recovery is a supplement of branched amino acids, arginine and L-Glutamine, a powerful detoxifying formula designed to protect and accelerate the recovery of muscle tissues.
