Zerixa BCAA Amino Complex - Muscle Recovery & Protein Synthesis

Scientifically-Formulated 2:1:1 Ratio of Leucine, Isoleucine, and Valine with Added Glutamine and Vitamin B6 for Lean Muscle Support

Maximize your training results with Zerixa BCAA Shock Powder, a comprehensive amino acid recovery formula featuring 5000mg of BCAAs in the scientifically-studied 2:1:1 ratio (2 parts Leucine, 1 part Isoleucine, 1 part Valine) plus L-Glutamine and Vitamin B6—designed to support muscle protein synthesis, enhance recovery, reduce exercise-induced muscle breakdown, and promote lean muscle development as part of a complete training and nutrition program.*

In the world of sports nutrition and fitness supplementation, BCAAs (Branched-Chain Amino Acids) stand among the most researched and scientifically-supported supplements for athletes, fitness enthusiasts, and active individuals seeking to optimize training adaptations, accelerate recovery, and support lean muscle mass. Unlike most amino acids that are metabolized in the liver, BCAAs are unique because they're metabolized directly in muscle tissue, where they can be rapidly utilized for energy during exercise, serve as building blocks for muscle protein synthesis, and help support various metabolic processes critical for athletic performance.*

BCAAs are essential amino acids—meaning the human body cannot synthesize them from other compounds, making dietary intake or supplementation necessary. The three BCAAs—Leucine, Isoleucine, and Valine—comprise approximately 35% of muscle protein and play distinct yet complementary roles in muscle metabolism, protein synthesis, energy production, and recovery processes. Leucine is particularly crucial as it directly activates the mTOR (mechanistic target of rapamycin) pathway, the primary signaling pathway that initiates muscle protein synthesis following resistance training or protein consumption.*

Zerixa BCAA Shock delivers these critical amino acids in a delicious Fruit Punch flavor that mixes easily into water or your favorite beverage, providing convenient intra-workout, post-workout, or between-meal amino acid support. The addition of L-Glutamine (the most abundant amino acid in muscle tissue) and Vitamin B6 (essential for amino acid metabolism) creates a comprehensive amino acid formula that addresses multiple aspects of training adaptation, recovery, and muscle support.*

Made in the USA with quality ingredients and available in an easy-to-mix powder format, this BCAA formula represents a science-based approach to supporting your training goals, helping you recover faster, train harder, and make consistent progress toward your fitness and physique objectives.*

4 Key Training Goals & How This Formula Supports You

Goal #1: Optimize Recovery and Support Post-Workout Comfort

Inadequate recovery between training sessions represents one of the most significant obstacles to fitness progress, affecting training frequency, workout quality, muscle growth, strength gains, and overall athletic performance. Following intense resistance training, high-intensity interval training, endurance exercise, or any demanding physical activity, muscles experience microscopic damage and metabolic stress that require adequate time and nutrients to repair and adapt. The recovery process involves repairing damaged muscle fibers, replenishing depleted energy stores (glycogen), supporting natural metabolic processes and cellular hydration, and synthesizing new contractile proteins to support strength and hypertrophy adaptations. When recovery is inadequate or excessively prolonged, multiple negative consequences emerge including persistent muscle soreness (Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness or DOMS) that can last 24-72+ hours, reduced training frequency because muscles aren't ready for subsequent workouts, decreased workout performance and intensity due to incomplete recovery, increased injury risk from training on insufficiently recovered tissues, impaired muscle protein synthesis limiting strength and size gains, reduced motivation to train when every workout leaves you excessively sore, and overall compromised training adaptations despite consistent effort. Multiple factors impair recovery including inadequate protein intake failing to provide amino acids for repair, insufficient total caloric intake limiting recovery resources, poor sleep quality and duration when most recovery occurs, chronic stress elevating cortisol and inhibiting anabolic processes, inadequate hydration affecting cellular function and nutrient delivery, training volume or intensity exceeding recovery capacity, and age-related declines in recovery efficiency. Many people train hard and consistently but fail to optimize recovery nutrition, particularly the critical window immediately following training when muscles are primed for nutrient uptake and protein synthesis. Without adequate amino acids, particularly BCAAs, the muscle protein synthesis response to training is suboptimal, and recovery is unnecessarily prolonged.

How Zerixa BCAA Shock Powder Supports You:

This post-workout recovery formula provides the essential amino acids your muscles need to optimize recovery, support protein synthesis, and supports the recovery timeline and post-exercise muscle comfort..* BCAAs (5000mg per serving) have been extensively studied for their role in supporting muscle recovery following exercise.* Research has investigated BCAAs for their potential to reduce exercise-induced muscle damage markers, decrease muscle soreness (DOMS), support muscle protein synthesis, and enhance recovery between training sessions.* Multiple studies have explored BCAA supplementation for reducing post-exercise muscle soreness, with several showing significant reductions in perceived soreness and faster recovery of muscle function compared to placebo.* The proposed mechanisms include BCAAs' role in supporting muscle protein synthesis (building new muscle proteins to repair damage), reducing muscle protein breakdown during and after exercise (anti-catabolic effects), serving as energy substrates during prolonged exercise (potentially sparing muscle glycogen), and possibly modulating inflammatory responses to exercise-induced muscle damage.* Leucine (provided in double quantity in the 2:1:1 ratio) is particularly important for recovery—it's the most anabolic of the three BCAAs and directly activates the mTOR pathway that initiates muscle protein synthesis.* Research has shown that leucine is the primary driver of the muscle protein synthesis response to amino acid consumption.* Isoleucine and Valine complement leucine's effects while also supporting glucose uptake into muscles and serving as energy substrates.* L-Glutamine is included for additional recovery support—glutamine is the most abundant amino acid in muscle tissue and blood, and its concentrations can become depleted following intense exercise.* Research has investigated glutamine supplementation for supporting recovery, immune function (which can be temporarily suppressed by intense training), and muscle glycogen replenishment.* While research on glutamine for athletic recovery shows mixed results, it remains popular among athletes and may provide benefits particularly during periods of high training stress or caloric restriction.* Vitamin B6 (Pyridoxine Hydrochloride) is essential for amino acid metabolism—it serves as a cofactor for enzymes involved in protein metabolism, amino acid synthesis and degradation, and neurotransmitter production.* Adequate B6 ensures efficient utilization of the amino acids provided by this supplement.* By providing these recovery-supporting nutrients immediately post-workout (or during extended training sessions), you help create optimal conditions for muscle repair and adaptation. With consistent use as part of a comprehensive recovery strategy including adequate total protein intake (0.7-1g per pound bodyweight daily), sufficient calories, quality sleep (7-9 hours), appropriate training volume, and active recovery practices, this BCAA formula may help reduce post-workout soreness, accelerate recovery between sessions, support consistent training frequency, and ultimately contribute to better training adaptations and progress toward your fitness goals.*

Goal #2: Muscle Maintenance During Training

Muscle protein breakdown during and after exercise represents a natural but potentially counterproductive process, particularly during prolonged training sessions, fasted training (morning workouts before breakfast), caloric restriction for fat loss, or high-volume training programs. During exercise, especially resistance training or prolonged endurance activity, the body's energy demands increase dramatically. When readily available energy sources (blood glucose, muscle glycogen) become depleted or when training in a fasted state, the body can break down muscle proteins into constituent amino acids to use for energy production through gluconeogenesis (converting amino acids to glucose) or direct oxidation. Additionally, the physical stress of training itself creates a challenging environment with increased energy demands, increased protein breakdown, and net negative protein balance during and immediately following exercise. This muscle protein breakdown is natural and, when properly balanced with adequate post-exercise protein synthesis, contributes to the remodeling process that drives training adaptations. However, excessive or inadequately countered muscle breakdown can lead to net muscle loss rather than gain, impaired recovery and performance, reduced strength and power output, compromised training adaptations despite consistent effort, particularly problematic during fat loss phases when caloric deficit already promotes catabolism, and frustration when hard training doesn't translate to desired physique changes. This challenge is particularly acute for those training in a fasted state (popular for early morning exercisers or those practicing intermittent fasting), athletes during prolonged training sessions (>60 minutes), individuals in caloric deficit trying to lose fat while preserving muscle, older adults experiencing age-related muscle loss (sarcopenia), and anyone engaged in high-volume training programs. Without adequate amino acid availability during and immediately after training, the muscle protein breakdown that occurs during exercise isn't sufficiently counterbalanced by protein synthesis, resulting in net negative protein balance that impairs muscle preservation and growth.

How Zerixa BCAA Shock Powder Supports You:

This muscle-support formula provides rapidly-available amino acids that may help reduce exercise-induced muscle protein breakdown and promote positive protein balance.* BCAAs are unique among amino acids because they bypass liver metabolism and are delivered directly to muscle tissue, where they can be immediately utilized.* This makes them particularly valuable during training when muscles need rapid access to amino acids for energy and protection against breakdown.* Research has investigated BCAA supplementation for its potential anti-catabolic effects—studies have explored whether BCAAs consumed before or during exercise can reduce markers of muscle protein breakdown and muscle damage.* Some research suggests BCAA supplementation may help reduce the exercise-induced increase in muscle protein breakdown markers, potentially supporting better preservation of muscle mass, particularly during caloric restriction or fasted training.* The 2:1:1 ratio (2 parts Leucine to 1 part each of Isoleucine and Valine) is specifically designed based on research suggesting this ratio optimally supports muscle protein synthesis while providing adequate amounts of all three BCAAs for their various metabolic roles.* Leucine not only serves as a building block for muscle protein but also acts as a signaling molecule—it activates mTOR, which initiates the muscle protein synthesis response.* By consuming leucine-rich BCAAs during or immediately after training, you provide both the signal and the building blocks for muscle protein synthesis to begin rapidly.* Isoleucine and Valine can be oxidized for energy during prolonged exercise, potentially sparing muscle glycogen and reducing the need to break down muscle proteins for energy.* Research has investigated whether BCAA supplementation during endurance exercise can spare muscle glycogen and reduce central fatigue.* L-Glutamine may provide additional anti-catabolic support—while research is mixed, some studies have investigated glutamine for supporting muscle preservation during catabolic conditions like caloric restriction, injury recovery, or high training stress.* For those training in a fasted state, BCAAs are particularly valuable—consuming BCAAs before fasted morning workouts may help minimize muscle protein breakdown while maintaining the fat-burning benefits of fasted training (since BCAAs contain minimal calories and don't significantly impact insulin compared to complete meals).* Research has explored fasted training with BCAA supplementation for body composition goals.* For athletes in caloric deficit trying to lose fat while maintaining muscle mass, BCAA supplementation may help protect hard-earned muscle tissue—maintaining protein synthesis signals and providing readily-available amino acids even when total food intake is reduced.* Studies have investigated BCAA supplementation during energy restriction for effects on body composition. By providing these anti-catabolic amino acids during the critical window of training stress, this formula helps shift the balance from net protein breakdown toward net protein synthesis, supporting muscle preservation during challenging training or dietary conditions and ultimately contributing to better body composition outcomes—more muscle retention during fat loss, better muscle gains during building phases, and improved recovery regardless of training goals.*

Goal #3: Efficient Muscle Protein Synthesis

Maximizing muscle protein synthesis (MPS) represents the fundamental biological process underlying muscle growth, strength gains, and training adaptations. Following resistance training, there's a window of opportunity (lasting up to 24-48 hours but most pronounced in the first few hours) when muscle protein synthesis rates are elevated and muscles are particularly sensitive to amino acids. Muscle growth occurs when muscle protein synthesis exceeds muscle protein breakdown over time, creating net positive protein balance. However, this process requires both the mechanical stimulus of training AND adequate amino acid availability—training provides the stimulus, but amino acids provide the building blocks and signaling molecules necessary to capitalize on that stimulus. Many people train consistently and hard but fail to optimize the nutritional side of the muscle-building equation, resulting in suboptimal muscle growth and strength gains despite dedicated training effort, plateau in progress after initial gains, difficulty adding lean muscle mass particularly for hard-gainers, reduced efficiency of training adaptations, and frustration when results don't match the effort invested in workouts. Multiple factors limit muscle protein synthesis including inadequate total daily protein intake (less than 0.7g per pound bodyweight), poor protein timing particularly around workouts, insufficient leucine content in protein sources or meals, inadequate caloric intake providing energy for anabolic processes, individual factors (metabolic rate, energy balance), training variables (volume, intensity, frequency), sleep deficiency when most muscle protein synthesis occurs, and and natural changes in efficiency of nutrient signals (metabolic variance). The leucine content of protein sources and meals is particularly important—research has established that approximately 2-3 grams of leucine per meal is required to maximally stimulate muscle protein synthesis in young adults (higher amounts needed in older adults). Many whole-food protein sources, while valuable, may not provide optimal leucine concentration to maximally stimulate MPS, particularly immediately post-workout when rapid amino acid availability is beneficial.

How Zerixa BCAA Shock Powder Supports You:

This anabolic amino acid formula provides concentrated leucine and complementary BCAAs specifically designed to trigger and support maximal muscle protein synthesis following training.* The 2:1:1 BCAA ratio delivers double leucine compared to isoleucine and valine—this ratio is based on research investigating optimal BCAA proportions for stimulating muscle protein synthesis.* Leucine is the primary driver of muscle protein synthesis—it directly activates the mTOR pathway through mechanisms involving leucine sensing by proteins that trigger downstream anabolic signaling cascades.* Research has extensively documented leucine's unique role in initiating MPS, with studies showing that leucine-rich amino acid solutions or supplements can rapidly stimulate muscle protein synthesis rates comparable to complete protein sources.* The threshold dose of leucine required to maximally stimulate MPS is approximately 2-3 grams for young adults—this formula's 2:1:1 ratio of 5000mg total BCAAs provides substantial leucine content to meet or exceed this threshold.* While leucine is the trigger, Isoleucine and Valine serve as essential building blocks—muscle proteins require all amino acids for complete synthesis, and having adequate amounts of all three BCAAs ensures efficient protein building once the process is initiated.* Research on complete vs. leucine-only supplementation suggests that while leucine triggers MPS, having all BCAAs (and ideally all essential amino acids) available supports more complete and sustained protein synthesis.* L-Glutamine represents the most abundant amino acid in muscle tissue and blood, comprising approximately 60% of the free amino acid pool in skeletal muscle.* While glutamine is considered "conditionally essential" (the body can produce it, but demands may exceed production during stress, illness, or intense training), supplementation may support various processes related to muscle function, immune health, and recovery.* Some research has investigated glutamine for supporting muscle protein synthesis, muscle glycogen replenishment, and cell volumization (glutamine pulls water into muscle cells, creating an anabolic cellular environment).* Vitamin B6 is essential for amino acid metabolism—it serves as a cofactor for aminotransferases and other enzymes involved in protein metabolism, ensuring efficient utilization of amino acids for protein synthesis.* The timing of amino acid consumption relative to training is important for optimizing MPS—consuming amino acids immediately pre-workout, during prolonged training, or immediately post-workout ensures high amino acid availability during the post-exercise window when muscle protein synthesis is elevated and muscles are sensitized to amino acids.* Research has investigated optimal protein/amino acid timing, with evidence supporting benefits of peri-workout (around workout) amino acid consumption for maximizing the MPS response to training.* By providing rapid-acting, leucine-rich BCAAs immediately after training (or during extended sessions), you create optimal conditions for maximizing the muscle protein synthesis response to your workout. With consistent use after training sessions, combined with adequate total daily protein intake (0.7-1g per pound bodyweight from varied high-quality sources), sufficient calories to support muscle growth, progressive training stimulus, and adequate recovery, this BCAA formula helps optimize the anabolic response to training—supporting greater muscle protein synthesis, better training adaptations, enhanced lean muscle development, improved strength gains, and more efficient progress toward physique and performance goals.*

Goal #4: Training Performance Decline and Central Fatigue

Maintaining training intensity and mental focus during workouts becomes increasingly challenging as training sessions extend, particularly during high-volume workouts, extended cardio sessions, or when training in a fatigued or fasted state. The decline in performance during prolonged exercise involves both peripheral fatigue (muscular fatigue from metabolic byproduct accumulation, energy substrate depletion, and local muscle factors) and central fatigue (brain and central nervous system factors reducing neural drive to muscles). Central fatigue represents a particularly interesting phenomenon where the brain reduces neural output to working muscles even when those muscles aren't completely fatigued—this protective mechanism prevents complete exhaustion but also limits performance. One proposed mechanism for central fatigue involves the "central fatigue hypothesis" related to brain serotonin levels and the ratio of free tryptophan to BCAAs in blood. During prolonged exercise, as BCAAs are depleted from circulation (used for energy or muscle protein synthesis), the ratio of free tryptophan (amino acid precursor to serotonin) to BCAAs increases, allowing more tryptophan to cross the blood-brain barrier and potentially increase brain serotonin synthesis. Elevated brain serotonin is associated with perceptions of fatigue, reduced motivation, and decreased neural drive to muscles. The consequences of declining performance during training include inability to complete planned workout volume or rep schemes, reduced training intensity compromising stimulus quality, early termination of workouts before adequate stimulus is achieved, mental fatigue and lack of focus during training, reduced mind-muscle connection affecting exercise technique, decreased motivation to push through challenging sets, and ultimately suboptimal training stimulus limiting adaptations. This challenge particularly affects endurance athletes during prolonged training, athletes performing high-volume resistance training sessions, those training multiple times daily, individuals training in energy deficit or fasted state, and anyone experiencing general training fatigue. Many people experience the frustrating phenomenon of feeling mentally fatigued and unable to push hard in training even when muscles aren't completely exhausted—the mind gives up before the muscles truly fail.

How Zerixa BCAA Shock Powder Supports You:

This performance support formula may help reduce central fatigue and support sustained training intensity throughout extended or demanding workout sessions.* The central fatigue hypothesis suggests that BCAA supplementation during exercise may help maintain favorable ratios of BCAAs to free tryptophan in circulation, potentially reducing brain serotonin synthesis and delaying central fatigue.* Research has investigated BCAA supplementation for effects on central fatigue, with some studies exploring whether BCAAs consumed during exercise can improve endurance performance, delay fatigue perception, or maintain mental focus during prolonged activity.* While research results are mixed (some studies show benefits, others show minimal effects), the theoretical mechanism remains of interest to athletes and researchers.* Some studies have found that BCAA supplementation improved markers of central fatigue or maintained cognitive function during prolonged exercise compared to placebo.* Beyond potential central fatigue effects, BCAAs can serve as energy substrates during prolonged exercise—particularly valine and isoleucine can be oxidized in muscle tissue to provide ATP (cellular energy), potentially sparing muscle glycogen stores and supporting sustained energy availability during extended training sessions.* Research has investigated whether BCAA supplementation affects substrate utilization during endurance exercise, with some evidence suggesting BCAAs may contribute to energy production during prolonged activity.* L-Glutamine may also support performance during extended training—some research has investigated glutamine for effects on exercise performance, glycogen resynthesis, and recovery, though results are mixed.* Glutamine serves as an energy substrate for immune cells and intestinal cells, which is relevant since intense exercise can temporarily suppress immune function and cause gastrointestinal distress in some athletes.* For those performing intra-workout supplementation (consuming BCAAs during training rather than just post-workout), having amino acids constantly available may support sustained protein synthesis signals, reduce muscle protein breakdown throughout training, maintain blood amino acid levels preventing depletion, and potentially support both physical and mental aspects of performance.* The easily-mixable powder format makes intra-workout consumption practical—simply mix with water in a shaker bottle and sip throughout your training session.* The delicious Fruit Punch flavor makes consumption during workouts enjoyable rather than a chore, supporting consistency of use.* Vitamin B6 supports energy metabolism and neurotransmitter synthesis, both relevant to training performance and neural function. By potentially reducing central fatigue, providing supplemental energy substrates, and maintaining amino acid availability throughout training, this BCAA formula may help support sustained training intensity, delayed onset of fatigue, maintained mental focus during workouts, ability to complete planned training volume, and better overall workout quality—ultimately translating to more consistent, higher-quality training stimulus and improved long-term adaptations and results.*

FAQs

Zerixa BCAA Amino Complex is a formulated dietary supplement designed to support muscle recovery and protein synthesis. It delivers a precise 5,000mg blend of Branched-Chain Amino Acids (BCAAs) in a research-backed 2:1:1 ratio, combined with Glutamine. This formula helps fuel your muscles during training and supports the body’s natural repair processes post-workout.

We use the 2:1:1 ratio (Leucine, Isoleucine, Valine) because it is the most researched ratio for supporting muscle protein synthesis. Leucine is widely recognized for its role in initiating the signal for muscle building, while Isoleucine and Valine assist with energy production and regulating blood sugar levels already within a normal range. This balanced approach helps maximize muscle maintenance without unnecessary fillers.

Glutamine is the most abundant amino acid in muscle tissue and can become depleted during intense physical stress. We include Glutamine in the Zerixa formula to help support muscle tissue repair and promote healthy recovery after strenuous exercise. It also plays a role in maintaining a healthy immune system and gut function during periods of heavy training.

For optimal results, Zerixa can be taken intra-workout (during your workout) to help sustain energy and reduce muscle breakdown, or post-workout to jumpstart the recovery process. Because it is a powder that dissolves easily, some users also sip it throughout the day to maintain steady amino acid levels between meals.


When combined with regular resistance training and a balanced diet, Zerixa BCAA Amino Complex supports lean muscle mass retention and development. By providing essential building blocks (amino acids) that the body cannot produce on its own, it helps facilitate the synthesis of muscle proteins needed for growth and strength.

Yes. BCAAs are often used by those on Ketogenic or intermittent fasting regimens. Because they provide functional energy for muscles without a significant spike in insulin or high carbohydrate load, Zerixa helps support muscle preservation during calorie-restricted or fasted states.

Absolutely. Zerixa is a versatile addition to your stack. It is stimulant-free, meaning it can be safely taken alongside caffeinated pre-workouts without causing jitters. You can also mix it with your post-workout protein shake to boost the amino acid profile, though the refreshing Fruit Punch flavor is designed to be delicious on its own with water.

No, Zerixa BCAA Amino Complex is 100% stimulant-free. It relies on the natural energy production of amino acids at the cellular level rather than central nervous system stimulants like caffeine. This makes it an ideal choice for late-night workouts or for individuals sensitive to stimulants.

BCAAs and Glutamine are generally well-tolerated by healthy adults when used as directed. However, individual tolerance varies. We recommend adhering to the suggested serving size of one scoop (approx. 10g) daily. If you are pregnant, nursing, or have a pre-existing medical condition, please consult your healthcare provider before introducing any new dietary supplement to your routine.

For the best tasting experience, mix one scoop of Zerixa BCAA Amino Complex (Fruit Punch flavor) with 8–12 ounces of cold water. Shake well in a shaker bottle for 15–20 seconds to ensure the powder is fully dissolved. You can adjust the amount of water to suit your preferred sweetness level.
