Optimum Nutrition Amino Energy, 270g

Optimum Nutrition is a brand whose basis has always been working with the basic building blocks that will always define success for athletes; proteins, amino acids, carbohydrates and proven ergogenics such as essential amino acids, and caffeine. Add to this mix high-quality research and development team and the backing of a billion-dollar holding company, and you have a brand whose products consistently rate among the very best in the field for taste and effectiveness.

Amino energy is Optimum Nutrition's pre-workout formulation and a supplement built, as the name suggests, around essential amino acids - the building blocks of protein without which you can train all you want but you will never get bigger. Optimum recognise that with the training period being one where your muscles (made of amino acids) are torn down, it is essential to assist the recovery process by providing them BEFORE you train so they are available to enhance recovery while training.

Amino energy is another great Optimum supplement and one which will win fans for anyone wanting a lower stim pre-workout which works the fundamentals better than anything else out there.
