L-isoleucine in the body is generally found in its highest concentrations in the muscles.
L-Isoleucine Benefits
L-isoleucine levels will be lowest right after exercise and will need to be recovered. Supplementation of L-isoleucine one hour before exercise may help aid recovery. L-isoleucine may also help maintain endurance and promote muscle growth when taken in conjunction with exercise.
