It is widely used in sports nutrition both as a supplement on its own and as a supplement that's added to others to boost their performance enhancing abilities. Glycine is best known for helping to increase muscle mass and is usually taken preworkout to help prevent muscle breakdown and ultimately help improve the entire muscle building process. However, more recently Glycine has become a popular postworkout supplement too following impressive studies that showed it had anti-inflammatory properties and helped the central nervous system recover. When taken alone, Glycine is usually taken to help increase high quality muscle mass. This is often why it's taken at night or added to a shake before bed to help stimulate signal molecules that are elevated whilst you sleep and greatly help the entire recovery process. Glycine supplements have become a very popular to take with others.
