    BCAA's/Amino Acids

    I currently take 10-15 grams of BCAA's a day.
    Im gonna start throwing in just regular amino acids. How many grams should I take? And does it matter when? i.e. pre-post workouts...etc.
    Is there a good cheap quality product to buy?

    Thanks guys.

    Some of my best gains were when i was taking aminos with each meal, however after a while they can get to your stomach--aminos in high quantities can upset the stomach but the gains were worth it

    i used ON powder...

    BCAA have some use especially when leaning up during workout. As far as regular aminos you're wasting your money. Just eat protein or whey.

    Yeah, I was thinking about getting the liquid and drinking them during workout, but I dont feel like drinking dirty asshole as I squat.



    What does ev1 think of is it, um, ON's amino 2222 or something? It seems like capsules would be best. Im just not exactly when or how much to take.

    Hey big sexy I got mine from trueprotein...best price could find...i mix a sugar free drink mix ( Tang Sport with electroytes) it covers up the taste real well. I'm just not a big fan of the dirty asshole taste like Upstate I take 5 gr before cardio and drink another 15gr during, also drink 15 while working out and add 10 to my PWO. Seems like it is really helping, cause I am trying to do some major cutting now.

    I would take BCAAs over AAs. Liquified or I heard that Scivations Extend is pretty decent tasting.
