What....

Dude go order Extend from Scivation 2 scoops have nearly 9 grams of BCAA's 30 servings cost around 21-25 bucks depending on where you order it.  Watermelon, Grape, Lemonaide.  You can just wash down a couple of  scoops of powder with water or add them to Protein shake, perfect and no crappy pills to swallow.  The BCAA profile will be HIGHER as well.

Controlled Labs makes a good BCAA powder too, called Purple Wrath, its 90 servings and VERY $$$ but good....

MRM's BCAA plus Glutamine, 3 tiny scoops full is 5 grams of BCAA's plus a gram of glutamine, like i said the scoop in tiny but you have to put it in your mouth dry and chase it with water and it has a lemonade flavor.

Be sure you get the following mix up of BCAA:

- 50% Leucin
- 25% Isoleucin
- 25% Valin


Well the powder one 'Universal BCAA Stack' has this breakdown:
Glutamine - 2.75g
Leucine (as L-leucine) - 2.5g
Isoleucine (as L-isoleucine) - 1.25g
Valine (as L-valine) - 1.25g


And the other powder one 'Nutrabolics Growth Factor' has this:


While dietary amino acids are critical for muscle growth, science has proven that regular amino acid supplements are effective only on laboratory animals and on people with wasting diseases like Multiple Sclerosis and AIDS - not on hard-training athletes.

The secret truth about amino acids is this: regular amino acid supplements are lousy muscle-builders for hard-training athletes.

You see, the majority of regular amino acid supplements are destroyed by your stomach acids before they can reach your muscles. As a result, you have to take more amino acids to see any effect, and this puts stress on your body and drives up the cost of amino acid supplementation.

GROWTH FACTOR by Nutrabolics is a new and powerful amino acid supplement that sets a new standard for amino acid supplementation. GROWTH FACTOR uses advanced esterification science to protect amino acids from stomach destruction, and this results in more amino acids being delivered to your muscles more effectively than ever. GROWTH FACTOR will give you amazing results fast, and at a fraction of the cost of using primitive regular amino acid supplements.

GROWTH FACTOR BENEFITS

• Builds muscle
• Burns fat
• Accelerates exercise recovery
• Scientifically proven ingredients
• Advanced esterification technology
• More effective
• Superior absorption
• Smaller dosages
• Stomach friendly

What makes GROWTH FACTOR so effective?

GROWTH FACTOR PROPRIETARY BLEND

GROWTH FACTOR uses a scientifically designed proprietary esterified amino acid blend of esterified branched chain amino acids (BCAA’s) and esterified essential amino acids.

BCAA Growth Complex…

The advanced BCAA Growth Complex contains:

• L-Leucine Ethyl Ester
• L-Isoleucine Ethyl Ester
• L-Valine Ethyl Ester.

These branched chain amino acids are critical for your results because they let you fully use the protein you eat. Simply: if you are deficient in any one of the BCAA’s, you won’t even be able to absorb much of the protein that you take – let alone use it to build new muscle tissue.

In addition, the BCAA Growth Complex amino acids speed fat loss, preserve muscle glycogen1, support muscle growth and prevent muscle tissue breakdown during intense exercise.2

Essential Amino Acid Growth Complex…

This advanced complex contains:

• L-Lysine Ethyl Ester
• L-Methionine Ethyl Ester
• L-Phenylalanine Ethyl Ester
• L-Threonine Ethyl Ester

These essential esterified amino acids promote muscle growth, speed fat loss, maintain nitrogen balance, spare muscle tissue wasting, support healthy organ function, promote normal metabolism, elevate moods3, enhance nutrient uptake, and support normal immune system function.

Together, the BCAA Growth Complex and the Essential Amino Acid Growth Complex are a potent combination that takes your results to unprecedented levels!
