    BCAA Dosage

    I have ON BCAA caps and 2 caps have L-leucine 500mg, L-isoleucine 250mg, and L-valine 25.mg. How many caps should I take pre and post workout?

    You're not gonna like the recommendation on how many to take... next time get some powder.

    Roughly 10 pills pre or at the beginning of your workout, and another 10 after would be a good start.

    Oops, sorry, I missed the part about 2 caps... probably double that, lol... If you're looking for a pretty average dose of 10g Leucine.

    MMMM... gelatin and magnesium stearate... MMMM...

    They were only $13 bucks so chuck 'em and get a powdered product quickly.
