Olympian Labs A-AKG Powder
- Arginine Alpha Ketoglutarate.
- Nitric Oxide (NO) Inducer and Growth Hormone (GH) Releaser.
Arginine is an amino acid that enhances muscle synthesis and recovery. Arginine is an effective growth hormone releaser and a precursor to nitric oxide (NO) synthesis. The potential benefits of an increased GH level include reduction in body fat, improved healing and recovery, and increased muscle mass. The potential benefits of increased NO levels include increased circulation to working muscles, increased nutrient uptake and protein synthesis, and improved male erectile performance.
Alpha Ketoglutarate (AKG) combines with ammonia generated by intense muscle activity to create glutamine, an amino acid important for energy fuel and muscle recovery. Arginine is a nonessential amino acid that influences several metabolic factors that are important to athletes. Arginine was most famous for its role in stimulating the release of human GH (somatotropin). Recent research has highlighted the importance of Arginine AKG in NO production.
An additional function of Arginine AKG is its role as a precursor in creatine production. Daily ingestion of L-Arginine AKG has been shown to increase the body's creatine stores. This may lead to improvements in performance for power athletes.
Supplementing with Arginine Alpha Ketoglutarate (AKG) appears to increase nitric oxide (NO) levels. NO is a key molecule used by your body to transport oxygen, increase blood flow and deliver nutrients to skeletal muscle. The more NO, the bigger the pump and the bigger the muscle will become.
AKG helps increase workout performance, which will only result in increased muscle mass. So, if you're interested in optimizing your workouts to obtain the body you want, look no further. No other nutritional supplement can sustain your workout like AKG POWDER.

I just got this A-AKG powder and tried it (1 scoop) in some water 1 hour before my workout and being a skeptic that I am, it had to really impress me. Boy, did it...I usually huff and puff after a set of heavy lifting but I noticed I didn't need to this time. The amount of repetitions doubled so I had to increase weight to compensate. I would not bother writing this if it weren't for real. So rarely do products work, so needless to say, I'm stoked !!!
