Here, let me use small words for big words...
From the super-brainy science paper from Alan Aragon and Brad Schoenfeld:

The linked paper:
http://www.jissn.com/content/pdf/1550-2783-10-5.pdfTipton et al. observed that a relatively small dose of EAA (6 g) taken immediately pre-exercise was able to elevate blood and muscle amino acid levels by roughly 130%, and these levels remained elevated for 2 hours after the exercise bout. Although this finding was subsequently challenged by Fujita et al., other research by Tipton et al. showed that the ingestion of 20 g whey taken immediately pre-exercise elevated muscular uptake of amino acids to 4.4 times pre-exercise resting levels during exercise, and did not return to baseline levels until 3 hours post-exercise. These data indicate that even minimal-to moderate pre-exercise EAA or high-quality protein taken immediately before resistance training is capable of sustaining amino acid delivery into the post-exercise period. Given this scenario, immediate post-exercise protein dosing for the aim of mitigating catabolism seems redundant.
Translation:
Eat protein before you lift, not after bro. It'll make you swole.
But it says it will make your muscles acidic. I heard from my naturopath that's bad. I eat coconut oil daily to make my body alkaline.
