Reported findings and study design
A manufacturer-commissioned report lists a 20 vs 12 cm gain in standing long jump after 18 days of football training and a 5.0 vs 4.5 kg gain in bench press in a separate strength series, calculated from its tables.
Training-camp comparisons used standard BCAA as the comparator. Tests included a 30 m flying sprint, jumps, a two-handed throw and bench press. The football comparison used the mean of three jump attempts.
Dose, route and schedule
Strength series, four weeks. The report lists 3 g BCAA + IPH-AGAA before and after training and 10 g standard BCAA on the same schedule. Football series, 18 days. Two combination capsules daily with food versus four standard BCAA capsules before and after training as described. Peptide content is unspecified.

| Measure | Result | Comparison, timing and statistics |
|---|---|---|
| Football · standing long jump | +20 vs +12 cm | 2.48 to 2.68 m with the combination and 2.44 to 2.56 m with standard BCAA. The table lists 6 per arm. |
| Football · vertical jump | +6 vs +2 cm | 78 to 84 cm and 81 to 83 cm, respectively, from the table. The text gives +8 cm for the combination. |
| Strength series · bench press | +5.0 vs +4.5 kg | 90.5 to 95.5 kg and 85.5 to 90.0 kg, respectively. The table implies about +5.5% vs +5.3%. |
| Strength series · triple jump | +0.72 vs +0.28 m | 8.52 to 9.24 m and 8.64 to 8.92 m, respectively. |
| Testosterone-to-cortisol ratio | 0.21 → 0.18 vs 0.18 → 0.11 | Combination versus standard BCAA. · The report describes p > 0.05 and p < 0.05 within each respective arm. |

Mean ± m as printed. The report’s narrative percentages for the strength series and vertical-jump gain differ from its tables. Changes above use the printed means.
The table values document performance during training with two differently dosed formulations. The report cannot isolate a peptide-specific effect.

Study limitations and source details
Study limitations
- The report gives conflicting football group sizes and dates. It does not establish masking, peptide content, equivalent BCAA dosing or systematic adverse-event monitoring.
- The comparisons took place during training, and the report does not supply a clear between-arm test of the changes. Its limited historical doping tests do not establish current eligibility or product safety.
