    Post Amino acids and protein

    I wanted to see if anyone could explain and tell me if it’s a good idea to include amino acids in my diet because as of now I’m just taking protein shake and no amino acids is it a bad idea to take both at different times ?

    If you are already taking in protein shakes, then there is no need for further amino acids as protein shakes already contain them.
    Further information of amino acids are plastered all over the main supp section (simply use the search tool option) as they are commonly asked.

    Proteins are made out of amino acids. Lots of them.

    Get your protein in and you'll be fine.

    Taking both Protein and Aminos at the same time is not necessary.
    It is actually counter-productive.

    As stated above, if your Protein intake is good, you will not need additional Aminos/BCAA.
    You need about 1g/lbs of your body weight.

    If you still want to look at some BCAA, take a look at Scivation.

    The Grape is also amazing.

    Like everyone is saying, Protein shakes come with amino acids and most include a nice dose of BCAA's as well. However if you can afford them they're good to have around, especially when in a calorie deficit. If anything, add in some Glutamine. Turns immune system into a beast and good for the gut too.

    Food and if you are using a protein shake you will be fine. The only time to consider adding in BCAA's is if you are running in a calorie deficit for long periods of time when you will notice the benefit of them on recovery.

    But if you're still meeting your macro it's pointless and if you're cutting you still should be meeting your macro.

    I take BCAA intra since I train for long periods of time.

    All protein foods breakdown into amino acids...extra BCAA supplements are helpfull for fasted training and intra workouts.

    OP,

    BCAAs are an immediate source of fuel that your muscles can act on instantly. Before, during and post training are all key times to consume amino's
