If you are a bodybuilder then you know full well the importance of maintaining a positive anabolic muscle building state in order to grow muscle mass. Many companies in the world specialize in the development and promotion of supplements that work to maintain this state for bodybuilders. Leukic, developed and promoted by MuscleTech is such a supplement and seems to be getting a lot of attention in the bodybuilding world. Leukic promises results in muscle growth far superior to the other products currently on the market. This article will look at Leukic as a bodybuilding supplement and examine its pros and cons.

Leucine-ketoisocaproic acid calcium is the chemical name for Leukic which is classified as an anabolic activator and it is not illegal nor a steroid. MuscleTech claims that it is the only 100% anabolic compound available on the market. Being 100% pure, there are supposedly no androgenic or estrogenic side effects such as bloating or Gynecomastia. Gynecomastia, commonly knows as gyno is the condition where a male bodybuilder develops feminine style breasts due to increased estrogen in his system. When a bodybuilder trains, hormones are elevated that will signal the muscles to grow. The negative side to this is that elevating these muscle building hormones can also elevate other unwanted hormones such as estrogen. This may cause serious side effects that can set your training back by weeks or even months. MuscleTech claims that the anabolic supplement Leukic will induce anabolism without affecting hormone levels.

The effects of Leukic are said to be immediately effective when taken before a training workout so no loading is required. This is important because many supplements require that you take the product for a specific time frame before it becomes effective. Also known as loading, this phrase means that you must allow the supplement to build up in your system before it starts to work. The manufacturers directions say to take one serving first thing when you wake up and on workout days, take one serving immediately before your workout. For extreme muscle growth, you can and may wish to take two servings a day. MuscleTech also recommends that you drink a generous amount of water when taking Leukic.

Leukic is said to stimulate your muscle growth and build permanent, dense muscle mass with ongoing training. MuscleTech claims that this is possible because Leukic will set off the anabolic signals that testosterone and other growth hormones generate without actually manipulating these and other unwanted hormones. This will induce an anabolic state without fear of the negative feedback loop which many bodybuilder experience and fear. In this supercharged anabolic state, your body has no choice but to build lean, dense muscle. In addition to putting your body in a positive anabolic state, MuscleTech claims that Leukic will also help you stay out of the muscle wasting catabolic state.

With the word anabolic popping up through this article, you may be thinking anabolic steroids and banned performance enhancing drugs and I must stress once again that Leukic is an activator and not a illegal steroid. If you are a professional bodybuilder with competition in mind, then taking a banned substance is not in your best interest. With this fact in mind, I searched through the North American anti-doping list and did not find Leukic on the list. In addition to this, it is rumored that Leukic was actually designed to be a replacement for the banned substances. If this is truly the case then professional bodybuilders who compete have no reason to fear using this supplement.

Dedicated bodybuilders know that there are thousands of supplements available to enhance their efforts and it can be extremely difficult to decide on the best product regardless of all the positive claims made by the manufacturer. As with most supplements, MuscleTech makes a lot of claims about Leukic being the very best product available on the market. While this can sometimes be difficult to prove scientifically, it is always informative to read some reviews by those who have actually used a certain product such as Leukic. After reading comments written by people who have been using the supplement Leukic, it became clear that most were happy with the results and offered a positive comment. I did, however, notice several comments that indicated that Leukic caused more weight gain then desired for that particular individual. While MuscleTech promotes Leukic as a muscle building supplement not designed specifically for gaining weight, it is a well known fact that increasing your muscle mass will often increase your weight as well.
