In the quest for optimal fitness results, we often focus on the intensity of our workouts, the balance of our diet and the quality of our rest. However, there's one essential element that sometimes gets overlooked: amino acids. These building blocks of protein play a crucial role in muscle repair, recovery, and growth. Today, we delve into the realm of amino-coated tablets and how they can revolutionize your fitness journey.
Understanding Amino Acids
Before we dive into the benefits of amino-coated tablets, let's understand what amino acids are and why they matter. Amino acids are organic compounds that combine to form proteins, essential for all bodily functions, including muscle development, immune system support, and hormone regulation. Of the 22 amino acids, nine are classified as essential, meaning the body cannot produce them on its own and must be obtained through diet or supplementation.

Anyone who works out, runs, bikes or does any type of intense exercise, knows about DOMS — Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness.
This is the soreness you feel not right after a workout or exercise, but 24-48 hours later.
At one point it was thought this was caused by lactic acid build up, but this isn’t the case.
Lactic acid is an acid that starts to build up just before we reach our VO2 Max and can’t go any further in our exercise or workout. (VO2 Max is literally the Maximum amount, or Volume, of Oxygen (O2) that your cells can utilize during intense exercise, before you burn out.)
But lactic acid actually helps you. Your body can metabolize it (burn it and use it as fuel).
So what really causes DOMS? And how can we prevent it or lessen it?
Let’s see.
