Amino Acid Supplements
1st Phorm Amino Acid Supplements
Amino acid supplements provide targeted support for anyone who places repeated stress on their muscles through training. Amino acids are the building blocks of protein and play a vital role in muscle repair and recovery. Amino acid supplements deliver individual or combinations of amino acids in free-form. They're broken down and ready for the body to use, unlike whole protein sources that must be digested.
At 1st Phorm, we offer 3 different types of amino acid supplements:
Essential Amino Acids (EAAs)
Essential amino acids are the 9 amino acids your body cannot produce on its own. These must come from food or supplements and include the 3 BCAAs (branched-chain amino acids) along with the other 6 essential aminos.
Branched-Chain Amino Acids (BCAAs)
BCAAs are the 3 most important amino acids involved in the process of muscle repair and growth (leucine, isoleucine, valine). They can help support muscle repair, growth, and recovery.
Glutamine
Glutamine is the most abundant amino acid in your body, which plays a role in supporting immune function, gut health, and recovery.

Amino Acid Supplements Frequently Asked Questions
When is the best time to take amino acid supplements?
Amino acid supplements are commonly taken before, during, or after training. Some people also use amino acid supplements between meals to support daily intake, especially between long windows without protein.
What are amino acid supplements used for?
Amino acid supplements are used to support muscle recovery and training demands. They provide amino acids in a free-form that is readily available for the body to use around workouts or throughout the day.
How are amino acid supplements different from protein powder?
Amino acid supplements provide individual or specific combinations of amino acids that are already broken down and ready for use. Protein powder contains whole protein chains that must be digested first.
How do I choose the right amino acid supplements?
Choosing amino acid supplements depends on how and when you plan to use them.
BCAAs are recommended for intra-workout support and between meals throughout the day.
EAAs, which are our powdered essential amino acids, and Anabolic Bridge, which is our encapsulated essential amino acids formula, provide a complete amino acid profile. They are recommended for intra-workout support and between meals throughout the day.
Glutamine can help support immune health, gut health, and recovery.
Combination products like Project-1 and Project-1 Pro are full-spectrum pre-workouts that contain amino acids for additional training support.
What are the benefits of using amino acid supplements?
When used strategically, amino acid supplements can help support:
Muscle Recovery - Amino acids provide the raw materials the body needs for muscle repair.
Training Support - Taking aminos during workouts can help support muscular endurance.
