"Just recieved this product and decided to test it pre and post when playing a football match. Result? i felt better endurance, even sprinting at full speed late in the game (rare for me) and after the post dosage i felt considerably less tired.\nNext to test it where it really matters, the gym!"

"BCAA's are an excellent supplement when used before and post workout for reducing soreness and promoting good recovery. The taste isn't exactly wonderous but you do get used it.\n\nAlso, BCAA's are improved with the addition of extra Leucine (the most potent BCAA) when mixed at a 2.1 BCAA/Leucine ratio, although the Leucine makes the blend less easy to mix."

"Great quality product and something that can give you excellent results. Alot of people have said that this stuff doesn't mix well, but I've never had any problems with that, I've mixed it in both a food blender and a shaker and it's been fine both times. It's a great price for the stuff as well."

"BCAA's speak for themselves, great supp to have if you can afford it. I would recomend you cap this powder though as it doesn't mix well and taste's like ass."

"I found this stuff tasted terrible- I couldn't get it to mix and it just floated on top in a thin powdery mess. It taste very bitter and I found it hard to mask the taste. Suppose it is worth it in the end, with all the good effects, but only if you can get it down yourself!"

Everyone has their own ideas about supplements but it seems pretty much agreed that the two you REALLY need are creatine and BCAA. I'm not so sure about the creatine but then again I'm a vegetarian so maybe it's just bringing me up to what I'm supposed to get from meat anyway. Aminoacids work, despite those who say it's destroyed in the gut, and in my case means no or very minimal DOMS plus the ability to train flat-out every day so long as I also stay off the beer. Without amino acids it's every other day. At present I'm minimising calories to lose fat and this usually trades off to mean less energy and more tiredness during workouts. Branched Chain Amino Acids fixes this little problem however by doing its anti-catabolic thing and forcing the body to burn that fat for energy instead of lazily just grabbing glycogen. It's extremely fast-acting and you can literally tell the difference in lack of tiredness and increased motivation to get on with it. Incidentally the powder is better value than tablets so don't be put off by stories of the terrible taste. It's not wonderful (slightly bitter) but tolerably OK, and in fact I find it's perfectly complemented by adding Robinsons Pink Grapefruit Fruit and Barley squash if you don't mind the tiny few extra calories. This supplement does not like to mix easily and granules sort of cling to the surface of the water but adding the Robinsons seems to correct that as well.

"Tastes fine when mixed with your protein, can barely tell its there. 5g in pre and post workout shakes works a treat!"

"This should be in every bodybuilders staple, right after whatever proteins you need, creatine.\r\n\r\nTry 5.6 gms pre-workout, 5.6 gms during workout, and 5.6 gms with PWO shake. (5.6 gms is 2 1/2 level scoops).\r\n\r\nFor periods of increased intensity (or just when you have more cash), add to this ...\r\n\r\nTRAINING DAYS - add to the above dosing, 5.6 gms upon waking and another 5.6 gms before bed.\r\n\r\nNON-TRAINING days - take 3-4 doses of 5.6 gms spread evenly throughout the day.\r\n\r\nI'd urge anyone using BCAA's to at least try the pre/post workout dosing above....just give it a month and judge for yourself.\r\n\r\nIn addition, buy yourself some cheap vitamin b6 (from asda) as recommended by MP.\r\n\r\n"

"I add 3g of this to my pre & post workout drinks and just before bed, its excellent stuff! Mixes fine and tastes ok, gives the drink a very slight acidic taste but with the protein and oats you can only just make it out! Will always use this from now on."
