First off a HUGE Thanks to BPS and lukehayd for giving me this opportunity to log BRAWN.
What is BRAWN?
"Brawn is a natural muscle builder containing 5a-hydroxy laxogenin at 100mg per capsule. Research has demonstrated that 5a-hydroxy laxogenin increases protein synthesis by over 200%, which has significant positive ramifications for building muscle mass.2 Muscle protein synthesis, in a nutshell, is the physiological process that creates protein from amino acids. Since muscles are comprised largely of proteins, the more synthesis occurs, the more muscles hypertrophy (grow)."
What benefits can be expected?
- Increase muscle protein synthesis by over 200%*
- Reduce cortisol and help manage stress
- Boost strength, power, and endurance*
- Enhance metabolic rate and fat loss*
- Fight inflammation and promote recovery
What are my plans for using this product?
I am very excited to try this product out as I have heard nothing but great feedback on Laxogenin. My plan is to increase protein intake to take advantage of the enhance protein synthesis from the product. I workout first thing upon waking and I plan to dose this product with 1 cap about 30-45min before my workout along with a 10g dose of BCAAs. On Off days I will be trying to dose it with first meal of the day.
CURRENT ROUTINE:
Monday - Back
Tuesday - Chest and Shoulders
Wednesday - Deadlifts
Thursday - Legs
Friday - Arms
My routine is pretty basic in the movements that I do. I stick to the big movements and make those my priorities, then move in to the smaller accessory movements. Typically I stay in the 3-4sets of 5-8 for the big movements, and 3 sets of 8-10 for the smaller movements.
