Many studies show that most athletes are deficient in zinc, magnesium and vitamin B6. A zinc deficiency results in decreased muscle endurance and lowered total work capacity of muscles. Regular exercise results in decreased zinc and magnesium levels, therefore requiring supplementation.
The minerals zinc and magnesium have a number of important functions in the body. Zinc has been strongly linked to the production of testosterone, a hormone that plays a vital role in regulating muscle growth. In addition to its effect on testosterone, zinc has also been shown to increase levels of growth hormone and IGF-1. Both are essential for increasing muscle size. Magnesium is also an essential mineral that is involved in more than 300 chemical reactions in the body including the oxidation or 'burning' of fat.
How do I use it?
ZMA should be taken 30-60 minutes before bedtime. For best results, take on an empty stomach. Never take ZMA with anything containing calcium. They inhibit each others absorption.
If you consume protein before bed (which you should), take it 30-60 minutes after your ZMA.
Note: Females should only take two thirds of the recommended dosage.
