HMB is a metabolite of leucine, one of the body's essential amino acids.
yea it's great to take aminos they are essential for building mass!!
get liver tablets and branch chain amino acids, the more the better!

Flax seeds are a great source of fiber, lignans, protein, fat, vitamins, and minerals.Lignans are natural plant chemicals. Flax seeds are the richest source of lignans.
Lignans boost the productions of a substance attached to estrogen and carries it out of the body.
Researchers also believe lignans to have antioxidant properties.
and for every 100 grams of flax seeds, you get about 25-30 grams of protein, which is great considering the other nutrients you get along with this.
flax seed also contains omega 3.

Fish oils are derived from the fat of deep-sea, cold water fish and are a natural source of Omega-3 Essential Fatty Acids (EFAs). Omega-3 is an important nutrient for maintaining a healthy brain and nervous system. Fish Oils themselves are said to contribute to healthy heart function and joint flexibility as well as supporting brain, nerve, and visual function.

it's great to get both!

peace

Drop HMB. Some of people here will say hmb is effective while cutting, but I will say that HMB is expencive and non-effective supplement. It is much better alternatives out there.

Ok then as a 16 yr old what other alternatives do i have?? I'm sick of using the powder alone and not gaining sufficient muscles. And what's the difference between BCAA and AMIno Acids?? Will any of that help?

BCAA = Branch Chain Amino Acids (aka "essential amino acids)
L-Leucine
L-Isoleucine
L-Valine

Amino Acids = The whole group of amino acids, and there are a ton of them. The amino sups I've been taking have 22 different forms of amino acids in them, including the 3 bcaa's I listed above.

Creatine is also an amino, btw.

The best advice I can give you is just eat clean and a lot of good food. You will be very glad to see your fast results thanks to good food

you may want to look at liver tablets the pure argintine beef kind.

universal nutrition makes a great liver product
it's called uni-liver has the BCAAs and all the aminos.
i have always taken some form of liver tablet, they help me on my road to building mass.

I've been using HMB 3-4 Grams/Day for 2 weeks and definitely see results. I'm not necessarily cutting but I've lost bodyfat and maintained muscle while using this product. I've been steady with my workout and haven't changed my routine or added more cardio, but am looking more cut since starting. Should have taken a before/after pic.

Yeah, I think it's a great product. Didnt lose any muscle, decrease in BF, and I noticed MANY new veins popping up in arms.
