Next Level Performance
The Benefits of Nitric Oxide
By Dr. Rick Kattouf II
Most individuals want to be leaner, have more energy,
perform better and recover better. And one of the more common questions I
receive is, ‘Rick, what’s a good fat
burner?’ A great question for sure since burning fat is a goal of most
individuals. The short answer, in terms of some type of fat burning
pill/supplement, is that there is not one. Just imagine, if that truly existed
(a pill/supplement to burn fat), no one on the planet would be overweight. So,
while there is no pill per se that will directly burn fat, there are many
things we can do to turn ourselves into a fat burning machine.
So, what will help to assist in burning fat? The answer is
muscle; we need to build muscle and when we do, we significantly increase our
body’s ability to shed fat. Strength training workouts like LEANDOWN
FITNESS® will help to assist in building muscle. And in addition,
eating right and fueling the body right is going to be a huge assist in the
muscle building/fat burning process. Is there anything else we can do to ignite
this process? And the answer is, absolutely!
Nitric Oxide plays an important role in many functions in the
body regulating vasodilatation, blood flow, mitochondrial respiration and
platelet function.
As we continue to fuel the body properly, we want to
maximize each workout. How can we maximize each workout, increase the body’s
ability to build muscle, increase the body’s ability to burn fat and increase
the body’s ability to recover even faster? (expedited
recovery is a big key to success. The faster we recover; the more productive
the next day’s workout will be and this leads to the positive compound effect
of working out). It all comes down to the right nutrition supplementation.
L-Citrulline is an amino acid that is converted into the
amino acid, L-Arginine in the kidneys. And this is what makes L-Citrulline that
much more effective than just L-Arginine
alone. This leads to increases in Nitric Oxide (NO) and creates
vasodilation (blood vessels dilate). OK, so how does this help you burn fat?
Great question; when we create vasodilation, we increase blood flow. When we
increase blood flow, we increase nutrient delivery to the muscles. In addition,
supplementation with L-Citrulline & L-Arginine help to assist in increasing
ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate); just think of this as increased energy delivery
to the muscles.
An increase in NO (Nitric Oxide) will cause vasodilation, and
then the downstream effect of vasodilation would be this massive increase in
blood flow, which helps to assist in exercise performance and enhanced recovery
Let’s put this together and sum it up. By taking the right
supplements, this can help to assist in reducing muscle fatigue and help to
assist in increasing energy for both aerobic and anaerobic exercise. In short,
this will help to assist in enabling us, during each workout, to go longer, harder,
more reps…before experiencing fatigue. It is this ability to increase the
productivity of each workout, that over time, will help to assist in building
more muscle, leading to greater body fat loss and improvement in performance
& recovery.
