I understand that when in recovery the muscle use the amino acids from protein.. Given I am taking about 1-1.25G protein per lbs.. Should I ajust my protein intake if I start taking the BCAAs?

Cheers

    As with all supplements, some swear by them, others don't. However, the research seems to go both ways. That being said, high protein should be enough, IMHO.
