It's a lion slapping a lion dead

Source of the pic? I'm having a hard time believing a lion can break another lions neck like that with its paw.

Holy shit@pic

kinda.

The consensus of the modern day understanding is that

amino acid requirements are not measures in minutes but in hours.

even if you pump bcaa into your veins its not significant with the except of a few cases due to age/deficiency/calorie restriction etc.

If you're a normal functioning human being on a non-calorie restricted diet then yes.

if you're calorie restricted then MAYBE

the amount in a bcaa drink is very minimal to cause anything substantial (once again MAYBE if you're deficient)

As for their ability to build muscle i call bull shit. But i use them because i go to the gym at 4am and have trouble eating enough at that time of morning so they are like an alternate source of energy.

If you 3-10g bcaa's 1.5 hours after eating you can initiate muscle protein synthesis. Source: dr. Jordan feigenbaum.

Apparently Lions have some Saitama in them.

no he doesn't

>Optimal protein intake per meal will be the amount of protein that yields ~3-4g of leucine, a branched-chain amino acid (BCAA). 3-4g of leucine per meal has been shown to maximize muscle protein synthesis.

BCAA in the protein source itself (whey)

not BCAA drinks

>On training days, consume 5–10g of BCAAs both before and after training as well as 4–5g between meals. On non-training days, only the latter applies. Each serving should be consumed at least 1.5 hours after eating in order to reap the benefits of an additional MPS cycle between each meal.

No, it's bull shit

I just read the article you're referring to and I want to say its bullshit

Although I respect feigenbaum a lot the articles he cite might as well say "more quality BCAA + EAA in between meals = gains"

once again, unless you're on a calorie restriction BCAA are a shill.

>>38778178
I want to agree with you, just figured i would try them between meals and see what happens. The idea that they metabolize quickly into the bloodstream than to skeletal muscle sounds pretty sexy.

So the other lion was an intern?
