Help please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ok I have talked to a sports medicine doctor and he says to take BCAAs after your workout, and to take Creatine before your workout, Right now I take BCAAs during my workout and Creatine after and then I take my whey protein after that, which way is the correct way or are either right??

Most take their creatine before/during the workouts. I take my BCAA's during my workout. The only thing I take post workout is my protein shake.

Thank you so much that is what most people I have talked to have said.

I'm surprised you've found a doc to even suggest taking any of those things. Even the sports doc I saw last year said creatine was a money gimmic and it was destroyed before being absorbed and as long as you ate meat you had enough creatine. He was a Multi-V, protein powder and electrolyte guy.

Most split the BCAA's dose in 3: before/during/after



during is ok..and the protein shake PostW. should be no problem..as for the creatine also split by most in Pre and post..

I use about 15 grams of BCAA's 30 minutes before working out along with a 1 scoop Whey Protein shake which adds another 5 grams BCAA's. I then take 10 grams of BCAA's immediately after working out with a 2 scoop Whey Protein shake. So basically 20 grams pre w/o and 20 grams post w/o. When I am on Creatine, I will split it up 3 grams pre-w/o and 3 grams post w/o.

creatine pre-wo along with 15g of BCAA
15g BCAA during
10g BCAA after, then 15-20min later my PWO shake
as you can tell I recommend bulk BCAA lol

Pretty much the same as my recommendation. BCAA's are quite bitter, so best to down with crystal light. Also, it takes about 5 minutes to settle to the bottom of the cup/glass/shaker/blender. So give it that time after mixing until drinking, unless you don't mind drinking wet powder.

I would also add some r ala to creatine/BCAA post w/o.
YMMV

I have found bulk BCAA's for about $40...that lasts a few months, not bad if you ask me.
I do have to add that on my workout days about 17g of those BCAA's are coming from Xtend not just the bulk.

Thats fine, There is no problem taking the creatine with the whey post workout.
