    I don't think there is consensus on BCAA supplementation. I don't think they can hurt, but it's not clear whether they will help.

    Milk >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> All suppliments.

    Milk is grow juice.

    Get your calories and protein in order and your muscles will grow just fine (milk supplies both). The assistance anything else provides is pretty trivial.

    Whey protein powder is merely refined milk. Only the super cheap stuff in bulk can match milk when it comes to cost per gram of protein.

    Looking at your diary that you never fill out.... LOL @ your calorie goal. Eat way more than that.

    You only really NEED BCAA's if you are working out fasted, which I assume you aren't. Otherwise you get plenty of BCAA's from your whey powder and from any milk or meat you eat
