Hi can any one help me with this?
I purchased a tub of Gaspari Nutrition’s AMINOMAX 8000 and the instructions are basically:
Directions For AminoMax 8000: As a dietary supplement, consume four (4) tablets before training and then another four (4) tablets after training.
Do I still need to take some whey protein say 30 grams etc afterwards? If so - then why bother taking these tablets? Each serving is supposed to be 8grams of amino acids.
The main reason I like this product is I can pack it in my suitcase when travelling (business travel - and use it as my main supplement when in hotels) rather than tubs of proteiin powder and shaker cup.
Thanks!

sadly i am ahaha. sorry if it was a completely idiotic statement but the trainer at my gym said that the amino pills (he saw me taking amino max pre workout) were tough on the liver n kidneys... :S could u let me know the truth on the subject. The truth is i was skeptical of his knowledge (even though he's a PT i swear i know more bout this stuff than him) but i've had past liver problems (all clear now) and it scared me outta taking them.

Amino pills are basically the same aminos that you would find in a whole protein source (like chicken, whey, eggs, beef, etc) except they are processed into pill form. There is really nothing inherently different as far as your body is concerned when it comes to digesting and processing these.
Now, a high protein diet can be more taxing on the liver and kidneys than a low protein diet, and especially so when combined with low water intake, which is why you will always see increased water intake encouraged when protein in increased.It's hard to win an argument with a smart person.

yes you can. I would do the aminomax 8000 15minutes before the spmax since the tabs needed longer time to breakdown and be absorbed. While you can use the amino max 8000 post, I would just stick with myofusion with carbs post workout. It is really up to you, try it both ways and see what you like/prefer.

Im a big fan of these types of amino acid tablets for in between meals, they work wonders when cutting or actually for increasing appetite if you are like me. Take a serving of this or a similar product 2 hrs between meals (if meals are space 4 hours apart) and youll see what I mean. Layne recommends this.
