Hmb

[powerhouse21]

I went to walmart today and they had a clearance sall on EAS HMB pills, 10 bucks for a bottle so i decided to give it a shot. Each serving is 4 pills- 1g of HMB so im gonna have to take about 12 pills a day which sucks. I was just curious to see if anyone has had noticable gains in strength or fat loss from these?

Nope. Just made my piss expensive.

I haven't seen any worthwhile studies on trained individuals.

i once did the same at a GNC found a great deal on EAS HMB bought all three bottles took it religiously as per recommended and saw no increase in recovery which was what i was really hoping for, as this is purported to be HMB's main benefit.

For future reference.

HMB is nothing more than a metabolite (which our bodies can produce) of the Branched Chain amino acid of Leucine. It would seem to me that it would be more beneficial to supplement a good BCAA supplement (like AI's Excell, Scivation's Xtend, or even NP's Bulk BCAA's) or straight leucine, since this will supply you with your necessary amounts of HMB as well as provide the myriad of other benefits BCAA supplementation provides.
