During sleep your nerves, muscles, bones, and immune system all recover from the stresses of daily life and undergo repair, restoration and growth. This restoration process occurs at specific times during your sleep cycle.
When you sleep you go through 5 sleep stages:
Stage 1: The lightest stage occurs as you start falling asleep and lasts about 5 – 10 minutes.
Stage 2: Still light sleep lasting about 30 minutes but transitions you towards a deeper sleep.
Stages 3 – 4: During these stages you move into deep sleep or slow wave sleep lasting between 10 and 30 minutes where brain activity decreases and your body begins restoring itself mentally and physically.
Stage 5: REM or Rapid Eye Movement Sleep, where you brain becomes more active and you dream. REM sleep can last from 5 minutes anywhere up to an hour and your body and mind continue to replenish their reserves through this stage.
During a night’s sleep your body will cycle through stages 3, 4 and 5 several times, and it is these stages where you are properly rested and most muscle recovery and growth occurs. The quality of sleep during these stages has a direct impact on the amount of muscle you will build. More good quality stage 3, 4 and 5 sleep means greater muscle gains, but only if you have a ready supply of quality protein and amino acids in your system.
To maximize your gains you need a steady supply of amino acids and small peptides all night that your body can use to repair and build your muscles. The best source of proteins for sleep is from foods that digest slowly like red meat or chicken because fast releasing proteins (like WPI) only stay in your system for a few hours. But there is a catch. If you eat a big meal that’s hard to digest before bed, it can disrupt your stage 3 & 4 sleep cycles which can inhibit muscle growth.
That’s whyMAX’S Anabolic Nightis ideal! It contains medium and slow release proteins that won’t overload your system or disrupt sleep.MAX’S Anabolic Nightis formulated to promote peaceful sleep right through the Stage 3, 4 & 5 sleep cycles so you recover fully and grow as much muscle as possible. Our Sustained Release Protein Blend contains:
Milk Protein Concentrate- This unique form of Casein and Whey Protein is refined to keep the large milk peptide structures intact, producing an un-denatured, slow digesting, highly bioactive protein for outstanding results. Clinical trials show MPC can sustain elevated blood peptides and amino acids levels for up to 8 hour to help maximize growth while you sleep.
Calcium Caseinate - a slow digesting and absorbing protein that is ideal for night use and for trainers with a faster metabolism. During digestion it releases bioactive peptides to enhance tissue growth and support your metabolism.
Whey Protein Concentrate- a medium digesting and absorption protein with a superior muscle building amino acid profile and contains high levels of immune and health enhancing protein fractions including Lactoglobulin, Lactoalbumin, Glycomacropeptides, Bovine Serum Albumin, Immunoglobulins, Lactoferrin, and Lactoperoxidase.
MAX'S Anabolic Night also includes specific nutrients to support your body's natural hormone production:
Glutamine - Oral intake of Glutamine helps preserve lean muscle mass and prevent muscle breakdown after hard weight training which makes it doubly beneficial.
Arginine- Oral intake of the amino acid Arginine supports your natural hormone metabolism. Arginine also has the added benefit of increasing Nitric Oxide production - a powerful vasodilator that helps increase blood flow and decrease blood pressure.
Ornithine- Multiple studies have demonstrated a synergistic effect by combining Arginine and Ornithine to support natural hormone balance when used in conjunction with resistance training.
Lysine - Like Ornithine, Lysine also has a synergistic effect when combined with Arginine. This combination has been shown to also support nartural hotmone levels at rest, but not during exercise, making it a good option for taking before sleep.
Glycine- is an essential building block for making proteins in the body along with supporting the production of glutathione, a powerful antioxidant that helps fight against cell damage.
Four natural sleep enhancers, Ashwagandha, Skullcap, Magnesium and Chamomile, are also included inMAX'S Anabolic Nightfor their calming and relaxing properties to help you sleep well:
Ashwagandha is known for it's calming benefits. Research has found that it can help minimise stress levels and promote more restful sleep.
Skullcap is a flowering perennial plants from the mint family. The range of health benefits attributed to skullcap are due to naturally occurring phenolic compounds and flavones. Among Skullcaps many properties is it's ability to promote calmness making it an ideal herb for promoting sound sleep.
Magnesiumhas been shown to help relax muscles and your nervous system.
Chamomileis one of the most ancient medicinal herbs known to mankind. The dried flowers of chamomile contain many terpenoids and flavonoids contributing to its medicinal properties. Traditionally, Chamomile preparations such as tea have been used to treat insomnia and to induce sedation (calming effects). Chamomile demonstrates a natural sleep-inducing effect which is thought to be due to the flavonoid, apigenin that binds to specific receptors in your brain that help promote relaxation and sleep.
