What is HMB? Explanation of benefits, effective ways to take it, and recommended products.

There are two ways to take HMB to boost its effects!

In order to grow muscle efficiently, it is important to keep in mind how to take HMB effectively. In this section, we’ll show you two ways to increase its effectiveness!

(1) Before and after training or before bedtime is recommended!

Since energy for exercises that exert power all at once, such as muscle training, is partially compensated by breaking down muscles, muscle breakdown is likely to occur during muscle training. However, if HMB is ingested before training, it will work to inhibit muscle breakdown, allowing for effective bodybuilding. And if HMB is also taken after training, it has a fatigue recovery effect. To further enjoy the benefits of HMB, it is recommended to take it before bedtime, when the ability of damaged muscles to recover is enhanced.

➁Combine with other supplements!

HMB has an excellent function to support muscle production, but its effect cannot be fully demonstrated if there is a lack of protein, which is the material to produce muscle in the first place. HMB is absorbed at a slower rate than whey protein, so the ideal way to consume HMB is to take HMB before training and then add protein after training. HMB is also compatible with amino acids such as creatine and arginine, so it is best to take them together to get the full benefit of HMB.
