    There are definitely a few thories on this one. Some think before a workout to increase GH release. My personal opinion due to the anti-catabolic effects of Glutamine would be 10-15g post workout and 10-20g before bedtime. Because these are the 2 most potential catabolic times for your body. Also mix in a whey protein with the glutamone post workout and a casien or milk based portein with glutamine before bedtime.

    I do 5-10 grams in a post workout protein shake and 5-10 grams in a pre bedtime protein shake. I also use Phosphagen HP in my shakes to kick up the GI.

    Pretty much the same thing as Go Time.
