MusclePharm BCAA 3:1:2 or Optimum Nutrition: BCAA 2:1:1?

[RCatta]

Hi guys,

So I've been wondering which of these I should buy. Other than the obvious, the price/serving differences are quite big. For Optimum you have $15.97 / 100 servings while MusclePharm goes on $19.97 / 30 servings.

Is one really that much better than the other? is MusclePharm worth the extra $?
Also it's apparently suggested to take 3 servings / day. Isn't that a bit of an overkill?

Feel free to detail your replies .

Neither.

BCAA products are a waste of money. Srs.

[RCatta]

So no aminos or ..?

[unknowblood25]

Disregard bcaa products

[Justin93]

Seriously they are a waste of money. Either spend that money on more food, or protein (which has BCAAs in it)

[RCatta]

So I should just skip the amino supplements?

Yes.

[Ryguy2016]

Just another way they can try to take your money. You should be getting BCAAs from food and protein powders. BCAA supplements can help, but normally when I use them, I take the drink mix and drink it as I'm training. They can reduce muscle fatigue and DOMs. So basically, they aren't 100% useless, but I'd put your money towards food/protein powders first.

If you are training fasted then no. otherwise they are not needed.

BCAAs definitely have their place/can be beneficial if used correctly.

You guessed correctly . Luckily it's not only BCAA though. BTW, never claimed BCAA does anything you stated.

You do realize we are in the supplement section, right?

I do indeed. Just trying to save some people some money. It's a good change of pace from the normal here where the myriad of company reps shove useless products down their throats.

I agree with you. Not trying to "shove" any products. All I stated was they can be beneficial. You have your opinion and I have mine.

Well. I guess at least one of our opinions is an unbiased one.

I think BCAA's have their place and benefits, but can easily be obtained from diet.

Yes, they can be beneficial. Are they are waste of money though that could be spent towards food or protein powder? Yes.

Ya and I laugh my ass off at the pricing on bcaa products. Give me a break.

[kbayne]

Again, all I stated was they can be useful. Never said "you have to go buy a BCAA product".

Never seen your rep power so low before, quick take bcaa's you will recover them back (only if you train fasted that is)

[Deutscher32]

So what would you say if your cutting and train fasted in the mornings?

Using BCAA's as a intra workout.

If you're going to supplement with them and do fasted training, dose them in one bolus pre-workout.

10 min pre workout 10g BCAA with at least 3-4g of leucine in BOLUS
