HMB ß-Hydroxy ß-Methylbutyrate

• Helps stimulate muscle protein synthesis (similar to leucine but more potent in some cases).
• Supports muscle hypertrophy, especially when combined with resistance training.
• May enhance strength gains, particularly in beginners or those returning to training after a break.

• HMB reduces muscle protein breakdown, making it beneficial during:
  • High-intensity training to minimize muscle damage.
  • Caloric deficits or weight cuts to preserve muscle.
  • Periods of inactivity or injury recovery to prevent muscle loss.

• Reduces muscle damage from intense training, leading to faster recovery.
• Decreases delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS) after hard workouts.

• Some studies suggest HMB can improve VO2 max and overall endurance.
• Reduces markers of muscle fatigue during prolonged exercise.

• May promote fat loss while preserving lean muscle, making it useful during cutting phases.

• Helps combat age-related muscle loss (sarcopenia) in older adults.
• Can aid in injury recovery by preventing excessive muscle atrophy.

• Athletes & Bodybuilders (for muscle growth, recovery, and performance).
• Individuals in a calorie deficit (to preserve muscle while cutting).
• Aging adults (to maintain muscle mass).
• Those recovering from injury (to prevent muscle loss during inactivity).

• Recommended dose: 3g per day, often split into 1g doses.
• Best timing: 30–60 minutes before training or spread throughout the day.
• Forms available: Free acid HMB (fast absorption) and HMB calcium salt (slower but still effective).
