Manage your on-pitch performance with Blonyx Beta-Alanine!
Rugby is one of the most physically demanding sports and requires a balance of strength, power, speed, endurance, and agility.
However, sometimes on-field performances can suffer due to the build-up of lactic acid. Lactic acid is generated by muscles working at high intensities. Rugby players are no strangers to lactic acid; it runs through your veins after each sprint, scrum or ruck.

BLONYX BETA-ALANINE
Beta-alanine is a non-essential amino acid and modified version of the amino acid alanine. In the body, beta-alanine is combined with histidine to make carnosine, a natural lactic acid buffer found in the muscle. The amount of carnosine in the muscle is thought to be limited by the amount of beta-alanine in the diet.
HOW IT WORKS: Beta-alanine is found naturally in food and once in the body is quickly converted into carnosine. Carnosine loves to soak up lactic acid so having more of it in the muscle should mean you can handle more lactic acid before fatiguing. The science seems to agree. There are now over 20 studies showing that a daily dose of beta-alanine will allow you to sprint for longer, do more reps, or maintain a higher intensity. Athletes also report feeling generally less fatigued when using beta-alanine.
