    BCAA with cutting diet

    When would be the best time to take my BCAA's? I assume pre cardio/workout right to preserver as much muscle as i can. Am i correct in saying this?

    15g total and sip it before/during/after your workout. not really necessary around cardio, but if you want a few grams go ahead. be sure to have a meal after your cardio, as soon as you feel comfortable.

    10 grams mourning 10grams before workout, 10 grams after, 10 grams before bed. This is Charles Poliquins thoughts I agree and I know twice as much as him.

    CP recommends closer to 50 grams para-workout. You know twice as much as him?

    Good call on the MRM in the other thread, though. It is a quality product.
