MAX BAX – Beta Alanine – Carnosine Precursor Max Muscle Sports Nutrition (MMSN) is proud to bring you BAX. BAX is based on the now large volume of published scientific studies showing the proven benefits of beta-alanine in improving intensity, power, speed, and endurance forms of exercise. Beta-alanine is a non-essential amino acid and is one of the few “beta” amino acids and not involved in structural proteins in the body as most of the “alpha” amino acids are. Although beta-alanine can be synthesized in the body its synthesis is quite limited. Beta-alanine is the main precursor of carnosine in muscle cells. This is supported by many published studies that have shown that beta-alanine can increase muscle carnosine up to 60%. Additionally, simple sugars like glucose (dextrose) can increase the uptake of beta-alanine into muscles mediated by increased insulin secretion by the pancreas. KEY FEATURES -
Contains Beta-Alanine – The Muscle Carnosine Precursor. -
Train Harder and Longer. -
Supports Explosive Power, Speed, Intensity, Endurance and Recovery. -
Delays Muscle Fatigue. -
Powerful Antioxidant. -
No Water Retention or Bloating. KEY MESSAGES -
Scientifically-based formula promoting the synthesis of muscle carnosine levels for enhanced power, speed, intensity, endurance and recovery. -
Beta-alanine is the primary precursor of carnosine. Like an intracellular sponge, carnosine functions as an intracellular buffer within muscles to soak up hydrogen ions (H+) generated from lactic acid (lactate) generated during high-intensity exercise. Helps to keep muscles in the optimum physiological pH range in “fast twitch” (Type II) fibers. -
Beta-alanine can increase intracellular muscle carnosine levels by as much as 60%. -
Supports increases in the Lactate or Anaerobic Threshold (AT) for enhanced anaerobic exercise performance. -
Carnosine functions as a powerful intracellular antioxidant and may enhance the antioxidant effects of Vitamin E. -
Carnosine supports the production of nitric oxide (NO) during exercise. -
Beta-alanine functions as an intracellular antioxidant to protect cellular organelles from free-radical called reactive oxygen species (ROS). TARGET MARKET Primary: Serious athletes who actively participate in strength, high-intensity and endurance sports wanting explosive speed, muscular strength and power. RECOMMENDED STACK -

Max EFA Carnosine is a dipeptide composed of the two amino acids, beta-alanine and L-histidine. Carnosine is commonly found in muscles with levels highest in the “fast-twitch” (Type II) fibers used for high intensity exercise and muscle growth. Studies have shown that muscle carnosine functions as a powerful antioxidant and increases the buffering capacity in muscles as a result of the accumulation of lactic acid (lactate) and the subsequent release of hydrogen ions (H+). As H+ ions accumulate, this causes a drop in the pH resulting in the subjective sensation of intense muscle burning (“feel the burn”), pain, fatigue, inhibition of energy (ATP) production and exhaustion. Like an intracellular sponge, carnosine soaks up H+ ions and is believed to be the most effective intramuscular buffer. Additionally, studies have shown an enhanced antioxidant effect of Vitamin E by carnosine and may support nitric oxide (NO) production. Carnosine is ideal for any athlete involved in high intensity exercise like bodybuilders, MMA fighters, hockey, spin classes, cycling, etc. BAX will take you to the next level of performance! Directions: As a dietary supplement, take one time-released tablet one to three times per day. Best results are seen when taken daily within a three to four week range to optimize muscle carnosine levels. -
Pre-workout: Take one tablet 15 to 20 minutes before exercise. -
Training: Take one tablet three times per day. -
Suggested Cycle: Three months. This product contains beta-alanine. Beta-alanine may produce a mild tingling/prickling/flushing sensation of the skin, lips or ears on initial use. This is similar to the niacin flush and most people are not bothered by this effect. Although the time-release technology is designed to prevent this effect, taking this product with a small amount of food may also reduce this effect.
