What Causes Weakness In The Leg Muscles?

I I I had polio 59 years ago with major muscle loss. I did walk again to the Doctors surprise. I have been careful not to over use my legs but I am finding they are getting weaker. My primary muscles were destroyed in my legs but I have been using my secondary muscles. I was wondering if BCAA would help my muscles ?

Hi,

BCCA powder can help you to gain little more muscle mass. But the benefits are not guaranteed.

You have to consult your physician before starting on supplements like BCCA.
