Essentials of Branched Chain Amino Acid

Branched Chain Amino Acid (BCAA)consumption is quite simple, just need to know some of the principles under which you will know how and when these amino acids consumed. Of course, you can use a blind or with the manufacturer's recommended schedule of administration, but to get better exposure or consumption of more efficient use, the BCAA treatment should be tailored to your diet while taking into account the intensity of training and muscle recovery.
BCAA administration principles

BCAA not only take into raising muscle mass, but also burn fat. BCAA burning fat will help preserve more muscle mass (if the recovery is poor, burning fat, muscle mass decreases);
BCAA must take each day as a building material for muscles, and muscle recovery and growth not only training days;
If your finances and limited finances can not afford to take BCAA's every day, then just take your training days, during which the amino acids are the most necessary: before and after your workout and before bedtime or between meals in the evening;
More intensive (more difficult) exercise, the greater the need for the BCAA;
Do not take large doses of BCAAs at the same time, preferably daily intake Split into several parts and take a different time. The optimal dose of 3 to 8g, depending on your weight, exercise intensity, diet and time when you are taking, for example.: Before and after workouts BCAAs need more than any other time, so that you can take higher doses, and at other times - lower;
If your diet is dominated by proteins derived from food and only a small part of the protein to collect whey protein (eg 20%) - you will need to consume more BCAA than in the case, when your diet is protein intake of whey protein is greater (eg, 40 %). This is due to the fact that whey protein has a higher biological value - to better influence muscle recovery.
