The role of branched-chain amino acids in nutrition of strength athletes
Jelínková, Kristýna ; Caha, Jan (advisor) ; Vebr, Pavel (referee)
These are a significant group of essential amino acids - branched chain amino acids, including leucine, isoleucine and valine. There is evidence to suggest that supplementation of branched amino acids can be very beneficial for synthesis and reduction of muscle protein degradation in strength athletes. On the other hand, there are studies to find that BCAA supplementation is not useful for restoring damaged muscles and alleviating pain after exercise as expected. The aim of this work is to summarize the issue of branched amino acid metabolism and to compare their effects when used in the form of BCAA supplements in strength athletes. Keywords: amino acids, leucin, BCAA, fitness, strength, muscles
