Amino Acids, which?

[burnthiscorpse]

I havnt used amino acid caps in years. I was thinking of getting back to it. A nice hefty dose while I seriously up my calories during the coming weeks and through my coming cycle.

Basically since there are a million brands....what would be the best bang for the buck? Getting me the most amount of higher dosed caps for a decent price?

This is the thing with aminos.

In theory, they're a good idea, for 2 reasons...

#1: They can be taken anytime to insure consistent aminos in the bloodstream. And they can be used to increase the amino content of any meal.

And #2: They can use superior protein (such as hydrolized) than can't be used in shakes . (Way too bitter).

The bad side is...

You need to take too many pills.

They tend to be too big.

The protein is most often standard whey, so you might as well get a lot more in a shake.

They're expensive.

So this is what I'm thinking...

Use hydrolyzed protein, along with plasma serum protein to make a SUPER amino cap, concentrating on the aminos geared exclusively for muscle tissue, then add ingredients which will allow for more nitrogen retention. In this way, a single gram is more like FIVE grams.

So taking 5 caps will be like adding another 25 grams of the highest grade protein into your system, anytime, anywhere.

Sound good? That's exactly what I'm doing right now. It should be available in about a month.

Aminos are good, but capsules are way too expensive. Take a look at this list of "grams of total BCAAs per dollar":
BCAAs

Powders top the list. You can go with the raw stuff but Xtend is damned tasty too

No homo , but I think I love you Nelson lol.

Is that what you and Needto are working on????!!!

Thats sick. Hows it shaping up to be price wise and servings per container? Any estimation yet?

We're working on a few things. This is separate from the prolactin supp (which looks really good) and the BRIDGE supp (which is taking a little more negotiating). But it would certain be a nice adjunct to the BRIDGE supp or any PCT.

The amino caps are very "do-able." Can't tell you what the price will be. That's neeto's area, but in accord with both his line and the price EF sells protein factory you can bet it will be the best price possible -- the thinking being , if it's good, it'll sell plenty. It's the crap like Muscletech that people only buy once or twice because they get suckered by big ads and then they stop, so the company charges as uch as possible until the customer catches on. With our stuff, the customers keep coming back! Cause it's good.

I'm looking forward to using these myself. Cool name too, but thaty'll have to reamin a secret for a while.

This ones we are doing. It will be a reality for sure. Its set in stone to happen ( at least in my mind). Nelson and I both love the Idea. I was thinking along the lines of a chewable wafer but not sure what form we have to put it in. All I know is its the best idea I have seen in a wile and we are doing it.

Since you're bulking, i'd keep the BCAA supplements spaced around your workout since I'll assume you'll be eating the rest of the day.

Whey is a good source of Amino Acids however there is a large difference between Free form aminos and AAs found in whey or food. Free form aminos are much more useful on a cut but could be used in conjunction with a bulking regimen especially if you workout in the morning or in a fasted or semi-fasted state.

ICE by Xtreme Formulations is the highest quality BCAAs on the market using Ajinomoto Aminos. Powder is much better than pill as long as it's flavored.

I was just thinking of eating them throughout the day. But doing a big hit before and after workout.




Nelson, Needto, ...chewable wafers would be a cool idea. Especially if there is super plasma protien involved. just dont make em' bananna flavored or something wierd.
Unflavored cardboard taste is quite popular

What about mixed with a carb drink intra-workout. I think you'll notice the benefit of that.

I used to buy carbo force by the case. Thats shit tastes soooooo good. But thats back when a case of 24 was $24.00

I do have a few pounds of glycomaize though. Any recomended amino powders that dont taste like chalk?

What would be a reasonable amount of carbs during w/o? I know the carbo force had 405g of simple carbs. I used to notice a big difference in stamina during w/o with those. Was hard not to slam them right down.

now I have just been drinking water during w/o as always. Taking a lipo flame or two pre w/o I usually drink a half gallon just during w/o
