bcaa's are needed around the workout because when you contact during heavy exericeses your body is using glycogen, a small amount of fats, and its breaking down bcaa's for fuel. in order to prevent the breakdown of muscle proteins while working out, you need to take in the bcaa's.
there you go..some relevant basic info...as much as ANYONE needs to know when it comes to supplementing and bodybuilding.
of course, leucine is a potent stimluant of protein synthesis and it also posess SOME fat burning effects.. but leucine is super expensive on its own, making it not a very legit supp because hardly anybody is willing to pay that price..
(maybe i dont kow as much as i THINK i do..btu i DO kow the basics..whether you believe it or not)
I wouldnt call that basic
its pretty much first sentence on the bottle of xtend.
i was going to rip on you but i proved my point and i really dont want to pick your posts apart anymore. Just try and be a little more humble and look to learn. Your posts come off as arrogant for some reason and you have rubbed people the wrong way, perhaps because you have always insisted you looked great when you didnt, or that you know this or that and you dont. Example, our discussion on CLA, i proved you wrong on every point but you wouldnt admit it and continued to call me a dumbass etc looking for further ways to avoid admitting you havent read all that much on the topic.
Ill leave you alone from here on out. By the way i dont have a degree in biochem, its actually psychology/neuro, im learning nutrition/biochem at the med school i attend, so im a layman as well.
in terms of biochem, most degree holders would know more then me, so im not really educated per se in this shit.
