Athletech DL185 Peptide Muscle Accelerant 84 Caps
Athletech DL 185 Peptide Muscle Accelerant is a dileucine peptide supplement (L-leucyl-L-leucine monohydrate) that delivers 2,000mg per serve across 84 capsules (28 servings). Unlike regular leucine or BCAAs, DL 185 uses the PepT1 peptide transporter for direct absorption — published human trials show 159% more muscle protein synthesis vs baseline and 60% more than the same dose of regular leucine (Paulussen et al., Journal of Applied Physiology 2021; Hagele et al., PLOS ONE 2024). One ingredient, no proprietary blends. Available in New Zealand with free delivery over $100.
You're Doing Everything Right.
Your Body Has a Bottleneck.
There's a limit to how much of your amino supplement actually reaches your muscles. DL 185 bypasses that limit.
Sound Like You?
You train consistently and eat well, but your results have plateaued and you feel like you should be getting more from all that effort.
You already supplement with protein, aminos, or BCAAs and you're wondering if there's something that actually works better.
You're tired of supplement hype and want something backed by real published research on real people, not marketing claims.
You want to know what you're taking — one ingredient, no proprietary blends, nothing you can't pronounce or explain.
Why you're not getting everything from your current stack
Your gut has a traffic problem. When you take amino acids — whether that's leucine, BCAAs, EAAs, or the aminos in your protein shake — they all break down into individual amino acids during digestion. Those aminos then compete with each other and everything else you've eaten for a limited number of absorption slots. A lot of what you swallow is stuck in traffic, and some of it never reaches your muscles at all.
DL 185 has its own lane. It's a di-peptide — two leucine molecules bonded together — and your gut has a separate, dedicated transporter just for peptides called PepT1. Think of it like an express lane on the motorway. No competition, no queue.
More arrives. In better shape. Because DL 185 bypasses the queue, it reaches your muscles intact and in a more potent form than broken-down free-form leucine. It's not replacing your current stack. It's removing the bottleneck that's been limiting it.
Regular Aminos vs DL 185
The difference is simple: regular aminos break down in your gut and compete for absorption. DL 185 bypasses the queue and arrives intact.
- Break down in your stomach before absorption
- Compete with other nutrients for limited slots
- Deliver a weaker muscle-building signal on arrival
- Lose a large portion before it reaches your muscles
- Survive digestion with the peptide bond intact
- Bypass the queue via a dedicated channel (PepT1)
- Deliver a stronger muscle-building signal on arrival
- Reach your muscles in a more complete, potent form

How It Works
-
The peptide bond is the key
Each serve delivers 2,000mg of DL 185 — two leucine molecules bonded together as a peptide. That bond is what gives it access to a completely different absorption pathway.
-
It takes the express lane
Instead of competing with every other amino acid for absorption, DL 185 uses PepT1 — a transporter in your gut built specifically for peptides. No queue, no competition.
-
It arrives at your muscles intact
The peptide bond doesn't break down during digestion, so DL 185 hits your muscle cells in a more potent form than regular leucine can deliver.
-
Stronger signal, more growth
Because more leucine arrives intact and in a more potent form, the muscle-building signal is stronger. Published trials show 60% more muscle protein synthesis than the same dose of regular leucine.
One ingredient. Nothing to hide. DL 185 Dileucine (L-leucyl-L-leucine monohydrate) in a plant-based capsule. No proprietary blends, no filler powders, no artificial anything. The label is short because it doesn't need to be long.
How to Take
- Take 3 capsules with water about 30 minutes before you train.
- On rest days, take 3 capsules with a meal that has protein in it.
- One bottle = 28 days at the recommended daily dose.

Common Questions
Do I need to stop taking my current aminos or BCAAs?
No. DL 185 isn't replacing your full amino profile — it's upgrading how efficiently your body uses leucine specifically. Keep taking what you're taking. DL 185 just removes the absorption bottleneck that's been limiting it.
What actually is a "peptide" in simple terms?
Two or more amino acids bonded together. DL 185 is specifically two leucines bonded as a pair. That bond gives it access to the PepT1 express lane described above — a dedicated absorption channel that free-form aminos can't use.
Where's the proof this actually works?
Two published human trials on trained individuals. Paulussen et al. (2021) in the Journal of Applied Physiology: 159% more muscle protein synthesis vs baseline, 60% more than leucine. Hagele et al. (2024) in PLOS ONE: 220% more reps to failure vs leucine. Independent studies, real people, resistance training.
How long until I notice a difference?
You may notice better training performance within 2-3 weeks. Many users report feeling the difference in sessions before seeing it in the mirror. Give it a full month at the recommended dose for full effect.
Can I take this with creatine, pre-workout, and protein?
Yes — all of them. They each do something different. Creatine fuels reps, pre-workout is stimulants, protein is raw material. DL 185 improves how efficiently your body uses that material. They work together. No cycling needed.
What's actually in the capsule?
2,000mg of DL 185 Dileucine (L-leucyl-L-leucine monohydrate) and a plant-based capsule shell. That's the complete ingredient list. No fillers, no colours, no flavours, no proprietary blends.
Is this suitable for women?
Yes. Leucine is an essential amino acid that works the same way regardless of sex. DL 185 simply improves how efficiently your body absorbs it. Nothing hormonal, nothing gender-specific.
How long does one bottle last?
84 capsules. At 3 per day, that's 28 days — roughly one month.
