Blonyx HMB Sport
HMB Sport is a simple, additive-free supplement that will speed your athletic progression by enabling you to train harder and need less recovery time. It contains calcium-bound HMB shown in research to improve many aspects of performance, from running, cycling and rowing, to strength and power output. It also has the added benefit of slowing the natural muscle loss seen with age, and can help you bounce back from injury faster.
The basics:
What's HMB Sport made of?
HMB Sport contains nothing but HMB. The body gets HMB naturally either from food (such as alfalfa, fish and citrus fruit) or by deriving it from leucine in the diet. It is used by the body to make muscle cell membranes and can also adjust protein production.
How does HMB work?
HMB is mainly found in the muscle where it slows muscle protein breakdown and speeds protein production. It also has a protective effect, reducing exercise-induced damage so you need less time to repair. Research shows that when supplementing the diet with ~3g/d HMB you need less recovery time and will adapt to your training quicker.
How will HMB help me achieve my athletic goals?
You’ll start to notice the impact of taking HMB after about three weeks of daily use. It usually starts with noticeably less soreness, and/or a feeling that you aren’t as tired as you normally are from training. After three weeks is the time to start pushing your training to a higher intensity to reap the benefits, and in 4-6 weeks in you’ll see a measurable improvement in your progression as an athlete.
What type of athlete is HMB Sport for?
HMB Sport is ideal for almost all athletes as it simply improves the quality of your training. It’s also a great supplement for masters athletes or injured athletes as it will slow the natural muscle loss with age or inactivity.
What type of athlete is HMB Sport NOT for?
HMB is a very well researched supplement ingredient with data showing improvements across the board. There are however, studies indicating that it may not work so well in athletes not actively working to improve fitness, strength or power (e.g. a rugby player mid-season).
Athletes who are not concerned with gaining muscle water weight may prefer to take HMB+ Creatine to get the benefits of both HMB and creatine monohydrate.
What the research shows:

Taking HMB increases strength gains when training involves movements like deadlifts, squats and bench press.

Where your body gets HMB from:

The body naturally makes 1g/d HMB from amino acids

We get about 0.5g/d HMB from foods like fish and citrus

Research shows that an additional 3g/d HMB impacts performance
HMB and masters athletes - the research:
HMB is ideal for masters athletes
HMB has been shown to slow age related muscle loss. This makes it an ideal supplement to take as we work hard to maintain our athletic ambitions as we get older. Interestingly, research also shows that as we get older our muscles contain less HMB. It theoretically works by simply slowing the rate at which our body breaks down muscle protein.
