The four key times to take Glutamine:
- In the morning
- Before workouts
- After workouts
- At bedtime
Why are these times so important?
- The morning since you just went 8 hours or more without any food, water and you need to replenish your muscles or they can start to deplete.
- To prevent an excessive breakdown of your muscles, take Glutamine before workouts. When you use excessive amounts of energy in a workout you can cause micro-tears and muscle contractions. (This is when a massage is most effective.) ARTICLE If your muscles are depleted of L-Glutamine, muscle growth is very minimal.
- Glutamine is the most important amino acid in your muscles. If you workout hard, your Glutamine levels are shot and need to be replenished. If you take Glutamine right after workouts, this will help your muscles recover fast, grow larger and the fresh Glutamine you put in your body will absorb straight into your muscles.
- Why bedtime? This will help minimize the break down of your muscles while you sleep. Don’t forget that you are sleeping for 8 hours with zero nutrients going into your body. Make sure you load up before you go into your sleep fast.
