Reduce total muscle soreness after intense resistance training, and/or further delay its onset
Both acute and chronic increases in total work capacity, measured by total volume during exercise sessions
Helps preserve muscle tissue (or anti-catabolism)
Helps delay exhaustion in aerobic and anaerobic exercises
Increases to total muscle power output in both acute and chronic trials, suggesting that beta alanines most significant benefit is to those engaging in power-dependent resistance training.
