    I usually only have my BCAA's during my workout!

    From the rountine you posted above I retract my statement about you overtraining. Your split looks good and not to taxing on the body. I'm not quite sure why recovery is taking so long. I am suspect for the rest of your diet. If you can try taking BCAA's first thing in the morn and during or pwo. Also, what brand of BCAA's are you taking?

    Modern BCAA by USPlabs (taste like sh!t too) I didn't think I was overtraining!

    My diet isn't amazing but I don't consider it shocking! Here's a ill run through meals are every 2 -3hrs
    Whey protein shake on waking
    Scrambled eggs (2cups of egg whites) on 2 pcs wholemeal toast
    6-8ounces chicken breast with rice n veggies
    PWO shake with oats
    Same as meal 2 (chicken)
    tuna with salad, potatoes

    Depending on what time I wake I will have 5 meals, but this is a typical day, this is what I ate yesterday??

    You are good to go with Modern BCAA's by USP Labs...they have the 8:1:1 ratio in which Leucine is heavily favored (this is what you want). From the diet you listed above it doesn't look like you are undereating (although I don't know your stats). When's the last time you deloaded (taken a week off)?

    Stats: 24, 86kilos, 5'11

    I deloaded probably a month ago, didn't do a thing because of exams, didn't eat that well for those 6 days either though! Late nights n early mornings
