    Assuming you are getting a decent amount of protein in your diet, BCAA's are worthless unless you just really enjoy spending money to have neat-o flavored water.

    You could be right, but I do like my neat-o flavored water! Adding a scoop of BCAA can make water go down easier.

    Why would water go down hard? My plain old water goes down just fine.

    I think they mean the flavor of it. Some people really like the taste of water, but I've noticed that some don't.

    How important are supplements when it comes to working out? And, what kind of supplements should I be adding in to my workouts? I'm a 27 year-old, female, my goal is to lose weight while also trying to define my muscles. Right now, the only supplement I take is a women's multivitamin.

    I've heard of Creatine & Bcaa's, but don't know what they are or what they do exactly?

    They are unnecessary for your goals...
