Sounds like a perfect amount. Are you taking protein as well, you will get about another 5 from that, which is a very decent amount

Why oral glutamine is a waste of money:

I believe the point pu12 is trying to make is to take your glutamine powder and inject it directly into whatever muscles you happen to be training that day...

If you can afford it, take 5g in the morning and prior to bed.

Get eaa's instead if you really want some aminos. Glutamine, arginine, ornithine are all non-essential amino acids and unless there is something wrong with you your body will make the amount it needs, the rest (what you ingest) will be excreted.

I used to take 5g post workout with my protien shake and that seemed to be just fine. When I stopped taking it, I could feel a difference in my recovery, but it was not significant enough to justify spending the money again.
