  • . 7 potent grams of BCAA‚Äôs at a 2:1:1 ratio ‚Äì the perfect mix to fuel your sport and ambitions ¬†In simple terms when you train hard you use your muscles more and to ensure your muscles recover, grow and work hard you need to make sure that more amino acids are entering the muscle tissue throughout the day than are leaving it. To achieve this you need the right balance, and luckily for you Grenade have formulated it for you Features: BCAA – 2:1:1 Ratio1g of Glutamine500mg of Powdered Coconut Water (rich in minerals and electrolytes) and Electrolyte BlendRESEARCH Several key, powerful and cutting-edge ingredients have been added to Defend, including: High-Dosage Leucine is probably the single most important amino acid for bodybuilders and strength and power athletes. This BCAA, even at modest levels, can literally ‚Äúturn on‚Äù muscle-building activity. No other single amino acid is known to do this to any significant extent on its own. Also, studies suggest that adding additional leucine to Protein can increase the magnitude of protein synthesis (the process that builds muscle) Defend contains both peptide-bound and freeform leucine [1]. Astragin Astragin¬Æ, a patented combination of Astragalus and Panax Notoginseng has been added to Defend to support optimum absorption. Impressive results have been obtained using this ingredient from scientific studies into its activity in Human intestinal Caco-2 cells, which have the responsibility for nutrient absorption from the gut. L-Citrulline DL-Malate Of all of the amino acids, citrulline has been found to increase nitric oxide and blood flow the most, more than arginine and other amino acids High nitric oxide levels and improved blood flow have been associated with increased weight training performance, increased muscle protein synthesis, increased Protein content in muscle, reduced fatigue, increased energy production and increased creatine phosphate production [2,3,4] Alpha lipoic acid has been demonstrated in scientific studies to have a positive impact on insulin function in the body and effects on supporting creatine uptake and retention in the muscle cells Glutamine peptides have long been recognised as a stable form of glutamine by bodybuilders and other strength athletes who use them for their purported cell-volumising and anticatabolic effect synthesis, increased protein content in muscle, reduced fatigue, increased energy production and increased creatine phosphate production [2,3,4] Drummond MJ, Rasmussen BB.

No matter what type of bike product your buying, from the simple accessories through to the full setup of your custom built road bike, there are lots of important considerations that you should take into account, especially when you’re shopping online and unable to test the product first. This is especially true when you’re buying products like Nutrition.

Our aim is simple, help you get the very best products for your budget. Whether that’s Grenade Defend BCAA (390g) or an alternative, we’ll do our best to find you unbiased, genuine customer reviews to help you make your decision. We’ve found 563 different products in the Nutrition category at Chain Reaction Cycles and we’ve also managed to find 19 products from Grenade (although only 19 of the 19 are in the Nutrition category).

Our first piece of advice is for you to spend some time really getting to know what it is you’re looking for. An important feature for one person might be totally pointless and irrelevant to you, so get a good idea of what you want and need from your Nutrition. Note down this list of key features that your product must have, that way when you’re comparing alternatives you have a starting point to decide whether one product meets your needs or not.

Price is the next and probably one of the most important factors of a purchase, so it’s really worthwhile spending a bit of time analysing the price of Grenade Defend BCAA (390g) and seeing how it stacks up against those offered by different brands or even other alternatives from Grenade.

The next stage we went on to, was to look at the price of products from the brand: Grenade. The average price was £19.64 and we found that the price varies right from as little as £5.24 up to £42.95 with Grenade products.

And finally we thought it would be good to give you an idea of Grenade products that appear specifically in the Nutrition category. So you can see that the price of Grenade Defend BCAA (390g) at £29.99 is great value considering the average price of Grenade Nutrition is £19.64 and the price varies from £5.24.

It’s also worth bearing in mind that we managed to find Grenade Defend BCAA (390g) during our price scan of several cycle retailers, for the amazing price of £29.99 which represents a £10.00 or 25% saving against RRP.
