I been taking Whey Protein shakes after each workout, and I recently got some Amino Acid pills from a good friend of mine who has been working out for 2 years. (Dymatize Nutrition Super Amino 4800 MG)
He said they work good.
When should I take the amino acid pills. Should I take them after I drink my protein shake?
Is taking one protein shake a day good? Directly after a workout.
And, when should I take the amino acid pills.
Also, Where can I throw Omega-3 Pills into the equation.
All advice is greatly appreciated. Thank you.

BCAA's (branch chain amino acids): Leucine, Valine, Isoleucine
EAA's (Essential Amino Acids): isoleucine, leucine, valine, lysine, methionine, phenylalanine, threonine, tryptophan. Note that the three BCAA's are contained within the EAA set.
NEAA (Non-Essential Amino Acids) - everything else (the other what, 14?)
An essential amino acid is a building block that cannot synthesize from other amino acids, at a rate to sustain ourselves (while it may be synthesized, inadequate amounts are produced). Non-essential aminos are ones that can be synthesized in adequate amounts for normal growth/sustainment.
This product contains both - it is best put as a 'broad spectrum' amino product. In fact, it is very similar to whey protein to profile for this product, because of one simple fact: it is.

Ok, so basically, these pills are the same thing as Whey protein, just more expensive, and less protein, if I understood that correctly. Sorry If I didn't, new to all this.
Now, im about to restock on WHEY, because I ran out. Are there any better proteins out there? I keep hearing about NO-Xplode, and NO SHOTGUN, etc.
Sorry for all the questions, just don't wanna waste my time, if I can be getting better results with other products.

Yes, you've got the idea of it. It's the same stuff, but more expensive (for all intents and purposes. Or at least, my purposes).
