AAKG w/ L-lysine?

[jon1026]

I've read on other forums that aakg should be taken with l-lysine to be effective. What are your thoughts?

My thoughts are Lysine is a basic amino acid like arginine but I don't think it would improve Arginine's effects very much. AAKG will work well on it's own, but stacks better with the following:

Arginine + Ornithine
Arginine + Norvaline
Arginine + Taurine

I love the AAKG/Taurine stack

 

[anabolicrhino]

lysine and arginine (and its derivatives) are competitive.
although if arginine make you break out lysine can be benificial.

I like lysine with citrulline.

Whats the recommended dosage? Right now I'm taking 3 g pre workout and 3 before bed.

My understanding is that the L-forms are "slightly" competitive and that other forms like AAKG and L-Lysine are not competive with each other.
