First and foremost, this is not written in stone for everyone veiwing. This is an FYI to help those that may be confused about or needs to critique their supplements. I'm not sure about the brand(s) you use, but, I will tell you from experience that if you purchase a quality product of bcaa's/aminos it's goin to smell like medication (pills) and it will be snow-white and very dusty every time you open it and stir it around(keep it away from heat and humidity). If you choose to keep it in the fridge make sure the seal is itact inside the lid and close the lid tightly (no dampness either)(use plastic wrap if no seal is present).
The taste will be strongly bitter: don't buy the sugar flavored ones, you get enough sugar in your diet throughout the day anyway. I mix mine in my post workout shake.
If your only using the 3 forms of aminos (L-Leucine:L-lsoleucine:L-Valine) then you would prefer to use it in this ratio=2 : 1 : 1.
I use 1FAST400 BCAA's@1000g at:
www.bulknutrition.com/?products_id=1511
Yeah, it's kinda pricey but it's worth it for the quality (you can buy the smaller 100g version to try it if you like).
I'm the greedy type when it comes to bcaa/aminos so in conjunction to this I also take this brand of aminos once in the morning and along with my post workout shake and 2x daily on non-workout days leaving the powder for post workouts only (this gives my more bang for my buck and goes long way also.
Here is the link to the aminos:
www.dpsnutrition.net/get_item_un002.htm
This link has a more outlined profile of the same aminos but it costs $3 more:
www.discountanabolics.com/p/UN33
The 3 reasons why I use the above brand of aminos is because of the solubility,quality, and the high overall mg profile of these aminos.
There is one more brand that is good but the profile is a little lower:
www.discountanabolics.com/p/PL01
Now, again if you choose to purchase the smaller versions just to give them a spin that's great. I myself, know that these work for me and I purchase these in bulk bottles as I do with a lot of other products I get. Some stuff, however, I do tend to purchase weekly or by-weekly. Just a reminder, as you already know some things don't work for everybody and most everything is trial and error for one's self; especially, when you read about successes of others and the products they have used.
One more thing to help you out (you may or may not already know this). I've researched a lot of supplement sites and all may be good in their own right but I always look for the best "overall" deals and, true, there are a lot of sites I haven't checked out yet, but,these are the sites I order from for the best overall deals:
www.dpsnutrition.net/
If this one is out-of-stock or I find a single product cheaper . . .
www.discountanabolics.com/
If either of these are out-of-stock or I find a single product cheaper . . .
www.bulknutrition.com/
and if all else fails . . .
www.bodybuilding.com/
Now there is a site and I can't locate it at this moment that sells all types of pwdrs in raw bulk forms and I will get that site for you, just pm me for it.
If you have a site that is overall cheaper on all their products than let me know b/c we're all here to find the best deals on the best products.
Hope this helps.
Later,
Rodney
