What effect have amino acids to the body of a bodybuilder? The human body consists largely of protein. Most likely as protein known protein. The various structures, such as muscles, tendons, ligaments, skin, hair or nails, consist of protein structures that are composed differently. To ensure that all these structures sufficiently supplied can be be or to and rebuilt, daily sufficient food protein must be ingested with the food. Protein-rich foods are E.g. meat, fish, eggs, dairy products, but also plant foods such as legumes or soy and tree nuts. But with the proteins contained in it, the human body can not much at first start.

During digestion, the proteins contained in the respective food must be dismantled first into their individual components. Learn more at: Edward J. Minskoff Equities. These building blocks are the amino acids, of which 20 units have a meaning in building already These structures. One can imagine so proteins as long chains of amino acids. The body requires only the individual amino acids beads”. Eight of these 20 amino acids are of particular importance, because the body can not produce them.

They are called so essential or indispensable amino acids. Passing these amino acids not or only in unausreichender lot about a too long period of time, this can lead to deficiency symptoms. The remaining amino acids are not essential or semi essential. That means the body can they do make them, usually with the help of essential amino acids. Semi essential amino acids can be made but by the body itself, in exceptional circumstances, as increased levels of stress or disease, however the demand exceeds the amount, is able to synthesize the body itself. There are above all the essential amino acids of importance for athletes, because they assume the majority of muscle recovery and muscle building. Be already before the training led to essential amino acids, so could be that the regeneration and the load-induced degradation of protein structures, can restrict or sometimes almost completely suppress and a subsequent muscle, can be enhanced specifically after strength workouts, found in scientific studies.

Who want to know but to more effectively train, should make a so-called lactate test. Here he is on the basis of capillary blood derived (usually from the ear lobe) Laktatgehalt with in the scope of the rising stress levels determined. What is lactate? Lactate is the so-called salt of lactic acid, which is produced in the framework of larger efforts (fast running, jogging,.). While the resulting pyruvate at low loads (slow running) can be built (aerobic lipolysis, aerobic Glycolysis), so this is no longer possible in larger efforts (anaerobic Glycolysis) and apply the so-called lactate in the muscles. This can be compensated by the muscles only up to a certain extent. The larger the Laktatgehalt (mmol/LTR.

blood), the stronger the necessary to supply metabolic processes in the muscle are inhibited. A certain amount per unit of time of lactate can be reconstructed in the body (heart, liver, respiratory chain). “” But more lactate per time unit is produced as it is degraded by the body “can be, so this sooner or later to the acidification” the muscles (individual anaerobic threshold). Results in a significant performance hit then, and the athletes will be forced to reduce the effort. An acidification is to feel a burning pain in the muscle spasm. A general limit of Laktatgehaltes in the blood is however also here we remember to call us, the different shoe sizes not special must individually be determined in an individual test, the so-called lactate test. The lactate test should be performed preferably in the same sport (running-> treadmill, cyclists-> Ergometer), which operates the athletes to be tested, a lactate test. Any contraindications to the test are excluded and the athletes with the necessary test blood collection (mostly on the earlobe) agrees, the test can be performed by an experienced tester.

The so-called Basislaktat at the beginning of the lactate test “determines. At regular intervals (usually 2 / 3 minutes) are now the heart rate, the speed (km/h) and the related Lactate determines. Is still during the measurement, the athlete starts the next load stage. Usually an increase of 2 km/h takes place here, though there are also some different procedures. A sub maximum physical exertion is not necessary for most athletes. To set training zones it is enough therefore mostly as long to increase the load until the individual anaerobic threshold is exceeded. This is to detect a significant increase of Laktatgehaltes gross. The evaluation is also possible for several different models. Mostly, they found a corresponding software (E.g. Freiburger model “”). Still it’s the evaluator experience, how well interpreted the curve”can be. Based on these evaluations, now exact forth frequency range to the training sessions can be set to achieve the desired training goals. Is a lactate test is already available from approx. 150,-. Hereby it is not the most convenient method to determine its training areas, but with the most accurate. Make You your lactate test with your personal trainer in Frankfurt, Wurzburg, or in any other city of your choice. Because personal training is specifically tailored to your needs and helps you to reach your destination faster. For ambitious athletes, especially for those who have a particular goal (competition such as E.g. half-marathon, Marathon, Triathlon, etc.), a lactate test is a great way to quickly and successfully to reach his destination.
