My favorite is amino x0

I prefer Scivation Extend BCAA's. Great flavor and seem to keep me going strong!1

I like Cellucor1

placebo affect for most who take it. Its more for the elite athlete. BCAAs are found in protein that you eat.1

I have been using Amino Energy by Optimum Nutrition. I drink it during my workout, as it has caffeine from natural sources. My recovery time has increased, as well as my intensity while training.1

The watermelon flavor of this is awesome helps with recovery and I use it instead of a pre workout and drink it during my workout because it's less caffine and doesn't give me jitters!0 -
Scivation - tasty as hell and excellent reputation. To be consumed:
On Rest Days: between meals (1.5 hours after meal), 1 scoop, 3x a day
On Workout Days: 1 scoop pre workout, 2-3 scoops directly after the workout (i.e. should be in your gym locker).
Helps recovery a great deal when you are pushing yourself to the limit.0 -
i usually buy bulk bcaa but they taste like *kitten*, i would advise u to take whichever u want as long as u like the taste.0

Like another mentioned, it's not needed. It's pretty much Koolaid.
But if $ isn't an issue go for it... I use Scivation. Mango flavor is trash also. And I also drink Gatorade Zero for cramps, followed by Pedialyte at night.0 -
A balanced diet unless you're a serious lifter cutting weight or a pro athlete trying to stage off muscle fatigue.1

You would want recovery time to decrease, not increase. ( I assume this is what you meant.)0

To answer your questions.....I'm cutting weight for a muai Thai fight I have in June. I'm behind to make weight so I'm pushing 3 hr training days 6× a week. I feel like the bcaa I'm currently using doesn't really help with recovery.0
