I am glad there here because I am getting sick of drinking some many things. Protetin, BCAA, pre WO, Post WO's, etc. I end up using the bathroom to pee like 20 times a day because every supp is a liquid.
 
Made with Xylitol is a HUGE bonus too! It's great for preventing/reversing tooth decay and plaque, 40% less calories and 75% less carbs than sugar, and it's SUPER LOW GI value means it will help control blood sugar!

These would be great to take between meals, espeically if cutting, to keep aminos high (direct use by muscles with free form BCAA), give you enough sugar alcohol to keep you energized and more satiated (less bingeing), get rid of plaque, and stabilize blood sugar! It also helps foster good bacteria in your gut! At 6.6g Xlitol per serving, that's enough to deliver the clinically recommended dose!

Wow, it looks really good! I just ordered it, and looking forward to replacing my ON Chewable Aminos that use not-so-good sugar alcohols that can cause IBS or diarhea. SCORE!

great info here thanks milas these just keep sounding better and better.
 
These will be the first powerchews I will be trying. It really will be nice to not have to drink all my aminos. I still will do my normal serving of Xtend pre and post workout, but I will use these along with a couple caps of GEAR throughout the day. Add in some L>-Glutamine chews for an epic BCAA stack!!

That is the part the hate I most is the rapid bathroom trips. With my main job I cant afford for lots of potty breaks, plus my sifu does not allow us potty breaks during our 2 hour classes so peeing to much is a no go for me. These would allow me to not have to use the bathroom so much and could increase over all productivity.
 
I want to give these a go with gear eventually looks like a good bcaa protien type stack! How do they taste?

I'm looking forward to these for road trips.

It's a 6.5 hour haul from where I live now to my hometown / where all my family is and I make it more frequently than I'd like (I love getting back to see them; just don't enjoy 900-mile roundtrips). I usually prepare a BCAA mix and pack a cooler with some food, too, but I'll be picking up some of these to snack on while making that drive.

Plus, I'm a recovering fat kid, so I like candy.

Hey, how about sneaking it into the movie theater?! :saevilw:

Yes sir...finally don't have to feel guilty for eating candy! And getting some decent supplementation along with it ;)
 
like most have stated, they can fit anywhere in the day, i plan on still using my bcaa powder during workout, but i'll be using the powerchews bcaa formula for late night and in the middle of the night along with gear for a powerhouse amino stack....also for days when i won't be around my house for extended periods of time i'll take a few with me just in case

I think during workout they are great so you dont have to consume extra liquid volume so you aren't taking multiple bathroom breaks. I know when I use intra shakes I pee A LOT.

You mean superdump?? I always spent an hour and a half in the gym on that stuff. Hour workout and 30 minutes on the crapper.. :toilet:
 
Nice. What's the bcaa ratio?
 
2:1:1 I believe.

It probably is a 2:1:1, but I'm unable to find anything positive confirming it. The label says proprieteray blend of L-Leucine, L-valine, and L-Isoluecine at 3 grams per serving

The pre-workout ones would be amazing for during school year. ****ing wake up late and just chew some down and by the time your in class you would be good to go :yup:
 
I wish I had some power chews.

and I wish you were the real Stephen Colbert...
 
Somebody dropped the ball on naming this one

I like it!! Some ChewBaCAA!! :rofl:

And the creatine chews could be CRE-3PO...werchews!!
 
When my client starts his bulk this will be used intra meals as layne norton instructs for BCAA consumption between meals. So I trust it enough to give it one of my clients, that says something

Good idea! BCAAs are great in between meals and especially pre and post workout when fasting. BCAAs have been a staple of mine since starting intermittent fasting, and I have some BCAA powerchews
On the way that I will throw in there when I get them ;)

Is it 2.5-5g Leucine 15-30 minutes before meals with the BCAA? That's what stimulates mTOR and Muscle Protein Synthesis, right? IIRC that's what Layne had recommended, not sure on the other BCAA outside of Leucine, I just don't know what effect they have...

It was 2-3 grams of leucine or BCAA at 5grams in between meals halfway at least according to the rx muscle interview

Cool, thanks. It seems like the recommendations keep changing, hard to keep up!
 
I just eat the power chews throughout the whole day, couple here, couple there.

There lots of directions you could follow but you ll pretty much be taking them all day...... Which isn't a bad thing

Tons of different ways to do it, you're right
 
yeah too many people get caught up with directions and other info with regards to how they should supplement.
 
I've been out surfing pretty regularly since getting out to Hawaii and I'll tell you, I'd love to have one of those little carrying cases with some BCAA chews in it in my board shorts lol. One of the few ways I could get some aminos in without having to go all the way back in to the beach.

I knew surfing wouldn't be incredibly easy, but paddling through insane winds when there's actually small-craft advisories out is a lot of work.
 
Just got my bcaa chews in today.. Put em in my gym bag and chew em right after my w/o. 6 chews.. Man they taste so damn good too!
 
Can't wait to try these. I hate drinking this stuff. Gives me an upset stomach.

My MHP Proteins has some but I think its not enough.
