    Can't argue with RecoverPro that stuffs quality and cheap, the Bulk Modern BCAA was sellling 1kg at 29.99 but is sold out atm was a great buy and good quality. I always was an extend user but prefer the 4:1:1 ratio and 8:1:1 ratios better then the 2:1:1.

    how do you dose BCAA's? morning? pre? post?

    I've been doing weights in the evenings (3days) & fasted cardio &/or yoga in the mornings -

    I'm looking for a little assistance cutting & have read that fasted cardio & BCAA's make for a good combo

    I ALWAYS use BCAAs while I'm in the gym. I use them for before and during fasted cardio and before and during lifting. I usually finish up my BCAAs on my ride home from the gym and then I have my protein shake.

    I'm not a company rep and here is my honest opinion on BCAA's out there.

    LOVES:
    AI Sports RecoverPro Lemon Flavored
    Modern BCAA

    LIKES:
    AI Sports Recover Pro Raspberry Flavor
    MuscleTech Nitro FX
    Xtend 1.0
    BCAA 6000

    I haven't tried Xtend 2.0 yet.

    BCAAs need to be cost effective in my opinion, until there is evidence that more expensive forms are more effective.

    I don't know about in America but in the UK RecoverPro is the most cost effective I am aware of without buying bulk. If you buy it get the lemon flavour.

    A bulk supplier here recently had a 50% off sale so 1kg of BCAAs were being sold for around $15 sterling equivalent.

    I buy in bulk now and throw an effervescent vitamin C tablet in there. It works out cheap and you can change the flavours- perfect.

    I have the same exact opinion. 2:1:1 is the ratio that has evidence of lean body mass gains.. These other blends seem to be just marketing IMO

    I could get all techy and talk about caffeine clearance or anti-oxidant effects vs pro-oxidant effects at which dosages but to tell you the truth it is because they are dirt cheap and taste nice lol.

    I am assuming you are using the BCAA + vit C around a workout.. If so look at this when you get a chance

    Granted it is in vitro and not a large scale study but I figured I would share with you... Just some food for thought

    It seems a bit tenuous to draw any conclusions from. I appreciate posting studies though.
