Leucine :
Is one of the most important branched chain amino acids for a bodybuilder because of its anabolic properties. In fact, leucine has been shown to have a direct effect on regulating protein synthesis by activating a major complex in the anabolic pathway called the mammalian target of rapamycin or mTOR. This pathway is sensitive to leucine concentrations.
Low leucine concentrations signal to mTOR that there is not enough protein present in the body to synthesize new skeletal muscle protein and it is deactivated, while increasing leucine concentrations cause activation of mTOR, resulting in synthesis of new skeletal muscle protein. Protein synthesis can be restored at 2.5 - 5 g of leucine.
