The Truth About How HMB Affects
Humans Is Becoming Clearer.
In a recent study, VO2 max was measured in athletes who were taking part in interval training 3 times a week for a period of 5 weeks. During this time, the subjects were either given a placebo or 3g of HMB. The results were shocking.
Those who were given the HMB supplementation had a VO2 max nearly twice that of the non-supplemented subjects. Furthermore, the supplemented individuals had an overall loss in body fat and an overall gain in lean tissue when compared to the other subject.
Following that study, the effect of HMB supplementation was tested on resistance training (ie. Strength training), with a similar group of individuals and same dosing protocol.
