These are necessary because it has been shown that carbohydrate intake during sports improves performance (Cermak, N.M. et al., SM. 2.013; Pochmuller, M. et al., JISSN. 2.016). In addition, recent research has shown that a high carbohydrate intake during sports practice, especially of long duration (\u0026gt; 2.5 h), improves neuromuscular function (Urdampilleta, A et al.

They also provide \u003cstrong\u003epotassium (K) and magnesium (Mg)\u003c\/strong\u003e, the loss of which could be implicated in the onset of muscle cramps, and have been added in the form of highly bioavailable salts, such as magnesium citrate.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBranched chain amino acids (BCAA):\u003c\/strong\u003e It has been shown that the intake of these amino acids together with carbohydrates during training decreases the markers of muscle damage (Valentine, R.J. et al., IJSNEM. 2.008). Also branched amino acids are highly oxidized by the muscle, that is, they are used as a source of energy decreasing the utilization of glycogen in favor of fats. In addition, the intake of these amino acids during exercise reduces the Central Fatigue Syndrome (CFS), that is, it reduces the production of Serotonin (neurotransmitter related to the symptoms of tiredness and mood) (Kerksick, C.M. et al., JISSN. 2008).\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eArginine:\u003c\/strong\u003e This amino acid, besides being a precursor of Nitric Oxide (NO), reduces lactate concentration and improves aerobic capacity.

These are necessary because carbohydrate intake during sports practice has been shown to improve performance (Cermak, N.M. et al., SM. 2013; Pochmuller, M. et al., JISSN. 2016). In addition, the latest research has shown that a high intake of carbohydrates during sports practice, especially for a long duration (\u0026gt;2.5 h), improves neuromuscular function (Urdampilleta, A et al. Nutrients. 2020) and it also improves post-workout recovery both at the level of muscle damage and at the energy level because it shortens glycogen resynthesis times (Viribay, A. et al.

They also provide potassium (K) and \u003cb\u003emagnesium (Mg)\u003c\/b\u003e, the loss of which could be involved in the onset of muscle cramps, and they have also been added in the form of highly bioavailable salts, such as citrate of magnesium.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\u003cb\u003eBranched Chain Amino Acids (BCAAs): \u003c\/b\u003eIntake of these amino acids along with carbohydrates during training has been shown to decrease markers of muscle damage (Valentine, R.J. et al., IJSNEM. 2008) . Branched-chain amino acids are also highly oxidized by the muscle, that is, they are used as an energy source, reducing the use of glycogen in favor of fat. In addition, the intake of these amino acids during exercise decreases Central Fatigue Syndrome (CFS), that is, it reduces the production of Serotonin (neurotransmitter related to symptoms of fatigue and mood) (Kerksick, C.M. et al., JISSN 2018).\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\u003cb\u003eArginine: \u003c\/b\u003eThis amino acid, in addition to being a precursor of Nitric Oxide (NO), reduces lactate concentration and improves aerobic capacity.

Its intake together with the rest of the ingredients has been shown to improve muscle resistance during exercise (Hoffman, J.R. el al., JCSR. 2008).

This, in addition to activating the Central Nervous System (CNS), delays fatigue and optimizes the use of cellular fuels (glycogen and fat).

It has been shown that in prolonged exercise the use of carbohydrates that are absorbed in the intestine by different transporters (known as SLGT-1 and GLUT) is the only way to increase the rate of assimilation and oxidation of exogenous carbohydrates above 60 g\/hour (Currell, K. et al., MSSE. 2008; Earnest, C.P. et al., JSCR. 2004).
