About MST RPG IBCAA

R.P.G.™ (Recover, Protect, Grow) combines potent Ajipure® instantized BCAAs (optimal 2:1:1 ratio) and Glutamine with EAAs (essential amino acids) and potent whole food based antioxidants to provide optimal recovery and free radical protection. Ajipure® aminos are 100% fermented, non-animal sourced and are NOT made from human hair like the vast majority on the market. R.P.G.™ mixes instantly and tastes great!*
Research suggests that BCAAs show much greater bioavailability and effectiveness when taken with other essential amino acids (EAAs) leading to enhanced recovery and performance. R.P.G.™ provides precise ratios of BCAAs, EAAs, and Glutamine to support proper recuperation and growth from those brutal training sessions and grueling competition.*
Benefits of R.P.G.™ and AjiPure® Amino Acids
• Support Recovery Efforts*
• Support Lean Muscle Mass*
• Complete Essential Amino Acid Blend
• AjiPure® Glutamine Enhanced
• Whole Food Antioxidant Support
• Mixes Instantly and Tastes Great
• Unmatched Purity & Guaranteed Potency
• Non-Animal Sourced
• Not Made From Human Hair
• No Chemical Aftertaste
• No Frothing or Foaming
We always source the best! With over 350 patents, Ajinomoto® is truly the world's amino acid innovator. Produced through microbiological fermentation using natural raw ingredients of non-animal origin, Ajipure® BCAAs and L-Glutamine are USP/FCC grade and are the only Branch Chain Amino Acids and L-Glutamine manufactured to the most exacting pharmaceutical standards by the world’s largest amino acid manufacturer.*
**R.P.G.™ is proudly made in the USA in a cGMP facility and is formulated and manufactured without the use of any banned substances, wheat, soy, milk, egg, fish, starch, salt or yeast. TESTED GLUTEN FREE!

Dosing Suggestions

Suggested Use: For best results mix 1-2 servings of R.P.G.™ with 8-16 ounces of water post workout. On non training days take 1-2 servings of R.P.G.™ spaced out throughout the day or as desired. R.P.G.™ may be shaken or stirred.

My plan for RPG I BCAA: Since this has 50 scoops This should last me 25 total days (Dosing 2 scoops per day)

Workout Days:

Since I mostly Train Fasted upon waking I will be dosing 1 scoop pre-workout and 1 scoop intra-workout to provide the best of both worlds as EAA’s have been shown to be superior intra-workout from PubMed Research.

http://ajcn.nutrition.org/content/94/3/809.long

“"In summary, consumption of a 10-g dose of EAA enriched with leucine during moderate endurance-type exercise stimulated increased MPS when compared with an isonitrogenous EAA supplement with an amino acid profile consistent with high-quality proteins. These data indicate that increasing leucine availability during steady state exercise promotes skeletal muscle protein anabolism and spares endogenous protein."


Cliffs:

These EAAs increased postworkout MPS by 33% when consumed during exercise
The drink with the highest leucine content spared muscle to the greatest degree


On Non-Workout Days:
I will dose between meals as suggested above as Layne Norton also shows in his Muscle Protein Synthesis PDF/Power point Below:

http://www.biolayne.com/wp-content/uploads/Norton-J-Ag-Food-Ind-Hi-Tech-2008.pdf

http://spotmebro.com/layne-norton-phd-on-protein-how-much-and-how-often/


Formula



I really like how MST has a 2:1:1 BCAA Blend (Which is the most studied on the market) and also an EAA Complex combining for 6g total in the formula with 2.5g Glutamine (which is also considered a BCAA) But does not really show much benefit regarding performance/endurance/recovery. The additional NAC/Orotic Acid in the recovery matrix is an interesting addition to a pre/intra workout product that I really look forward to gauging in my workouts. Not to mention this product is 100% Ajipure the purest forms of BCAA’s which is a major bonus and plus to utilizing this product. MST is using top notch raw materials and putting out a spectacular product.

Things I will Note:

- Recovery From day to day and during a workout (between sets)
- Cutting down rest times
- DOMS
- Any changes in strength/performance/endurance

RPG is a personal fav for flavor alone, but it's def got the best profile out there.

I've only tried the bubba punch but been meaning to try out other flavors too

I've been through about 25 tubs of RPG since it first came out and about 85% of them have been bubba punch( that was the first flavor ) its awesome...I do however think the new melon is up there and I actually got one of the first reformed apple a while back and it was fantastic. The punch is definitely my number 1 or 2 flavor for any BCAA/EAA out there.

Actually come to think of it its probably been way more than 25 lol.

Don't know, just putting in work and hoping to continue to see strength/mirror changes. that is my sole focus being a bodybuilder.

I like the dosing schedule taking into account MPS and whatnot. I do have to ask however, aren't you worried that the antioxidants will hamper hypertrophy if taken close to your workout by reducing acute inflammation?

Not at all, if that is the case why do i continue to see progress and success, that detail is so small it makes 0 difference for a trainee who is meeting kcals and training let alone being consistent and dedicated. that small of a detail is negligable to the big picture.

About the anti-oxidants, I agree. I usually sip RPG all day long and then take a hefty dose intra-workout. I also used to use a very high-orac freeze dried berry extract powder in my water all day long as well and it never adversely effected progress.

Their chocolate base is Meh... B&J is so dull when it comes to chocolate as their base. The PB base and sweet cream base is far superior. if you want a legit chocolate Jeni's
