Does l-arginine alpha-ketoglutarate improve strength?

Today, I came across and interesting study on l-arginine alpha-ketoglutarate (Campell et al, 2006). This particular study involved an 8 week, double-blind trial of l-arginine alpha-ketoglutarate in 35 resistance-trained men. Compared to the placebo group, the resistance-trained men increased their one repetition maximum bench press by 8.82 Kg vs. 2.67 Kg over the 8 week period.

Dose:

Ingest 4 g of AAKG [l-arginine alpha-ketoglutarate ] (three times a day, i.e., 12 g daily)
