actually that price is good. put 8-10 scoops in 4 liters of water in the fridge and sip on it all day. as cheap as crystal light, but you grow big muscles.
but the 79.99 is a bullshit rip off.

You can also get BCAA's in cheap whey protein powder

Never used the stuff does it actually work or is a useless supplement?

there are only two legal supplements i use and recommend to everyone.
a good protein powder and a good branch chain amino.
the rest i wouldnt waste my money on.

considering most are on gear here already bcaa is bunk balonie bullcrap
-
i go with straight up l-leucine. i've read that biologically, it's really just l-leucine that plays a role in muscle anabolism/catabolism during lifting, and isoleucine competes with the same absorption pathways as l-leucine so i figure it's better to just go leucine + glutamine for a protein shake.
gives me a pump too, so whatever.

x2
Get your "BCAA's" from food
-
Allstarhealth.com is cheaper. Hate the new formula. I don't need all that sodium.
-
Used to use them,but they cost so much.
-
50$ = 200 20mg dbol 6grams test almost 2grams tren and a hooker and few bottles of maddog
LOL @ Maddog!
MD_20 20.......we shall serve no wine before its time. ;D
-
but i guess in theory if you have unflavored bcca you could tell the hooker its dope and get her for free:)
Break open the capsules and do a few lines,or cook it up and shoot it! ;D
-
oh man i drunk so many of them maddogs in my early 20s the guy at the store used to make special orders most people only new of grape ,red and orange and green but even back then they had a lot of flavors people would be where did you get that at. All about having a good source. I Used to laugh people think maddog wont get them drunk lol and ended up pissing there pants and puking there guts up even big bikers and stuff.
;D

Just like saying you can get enough creatine from red meat. ::)

Good point,buying a supplement,means to supplement existing levels of whatever it is your supplementing.
That sounds confusing,but you know what I`m getting at,and if you don`t,I don`t care anyway. ;D

Forgive my ignorance .. But what does branch chain amino acids actually
In laa mans terms?
-
I was actually just going to go to the GNC in the morning to buy some BCAA's, but didn't cause I want to get some more tren instead :D I swear a little tiny tub is like 50 bucks. ...price is INSANE. but I really do think it's a great supplement honestly and if you get grape flavor it tastes pretty good if you poor a scoop in your mouth. . make no mistake the health benefits of BCAA's are there and well documented. From insulin sensitivity, healing and rejuvination abilities, as well as been linked to life extension. Thanks man I'll try these out ..

Many athletes take branched chained amino acids (BCAAs) during their weight training workouts to enable them to increase their quality of their workouts and improve recovery ability, but research shows that BCAAs may also play a role in life extension. According to a study published in the October 6, 2010 issue of Cell Metabolism, BCAA supplementation increased the average life span of mice. It does this by stimulating the formation of new mitochondria, which is a structure in cells involved in energy production.
Indirectly, there are other ways that BCAA supplementation can prolong life. Individuals with chronic liver disease experience may improve insulin resistance with BCAA supplementation (International Journal of Molecular Medicine, July 2008) and cancer patients can enjoy a better quality of life as the BCAA leucine, in combination with a high protein diet and fish oil supplementation, has been shown to reduce the muscle tissue loss associated with cancer (British Journal of Cancer, March 2009). As that logical alien with pointy ears would say, “Use BCAAs to live long and have prosperous workouts!”
-
Research has shown that so far for bodybuilding benefits, BCAA's are pretty much useless unless used in a very specific fashion.
Training early on an empty stomach (only BCAA's ingested) during an IF regime might have some potentially strong body-recomposition effects.
-
Bottom line is for what they cost they don't do jack. I fail to see how supplementing bcaa is any more beneficial than ingesting it in whole food. Supplement company funded studies done on rats are not going to make me a believer.

True, I've seen too many promising rat and mice studies that did not translate at all to humans.

trueproteins
taste like complete shit.
-
On the other hand, training first thing in the morning on an empty stomach you need BCAA's so they can be quickly delivered to working muscles. A protein shake takes longer to digest and absorb.
In summary, it depends on how you're training and this protocol would be strictly for a natural during an IF dieting regime.
-
damn!
thought this thread was about how to train with chains like branch
:D

Supplementwarehouse.com
Old formula....loowwww price

that's when I use it- before fasted training first thing in am. and right after. I'll sip I. it thru the day too. I like xtend cause it just tastes good and it works. I don't need studies to tell me it does. I've dieted down enough times using the exact same compounds to know when something is working. things I notice most are DOMS lessen, recovery time speeds up, and I keep more lean tissue.
that being said- you can boatload compounds and get better results, and not really require the benefit of a bcaa. I use a more moderate approach as I don't want the size that comes with big stacks, or possible health problems down the road. I'd rather use less on a mg per basis (right now I'm 200mg tren ace eod/ 100mg prop eod/ no GH atm- and that's nothing for a guy my size), use a bcaa to help me hold size, and have the 'feeling' of being healthy. it's just what works for me.

Not really...mice and humans are almost identical in many ways when it comes to receptor sights, response to medications, etc. We wouldn't use mice if they didn't

That's good,
if people started coupling smart nutritional practices and metabolic tricks with low doses of AAS they'd see wonders, but for that you need proper info.
We're swimming in disinformation and lies for the purpose of making money. You need years to sieve through it to get to something useful or have an honest and knowledgeable coach explain it to you.
Too much tren in my opinion, since tren is fully active at 20-40mg eod range.
And if you're dieting try very low carb, very low fat for 4 days and totally glycogen deplete.
Then carb load for 2 days with 600 to 800g of carbs/day (coming from starches), go pump some weight (12-15 reps) and you won't believe your eyes.
Who needs exogenous insulin?

I agree but almost is the key word.

Creatine is shit if you use it on a daily basis too, but if you incorporate it only during carbloads it shows its strength.

Does Branch get a royalty cheque for his name being used in this product?
