Show Highlights & Big Takeaways:

 

1. BCAAs (Branch Chain Amino Acids)

Lucine, isoleucine, and valine are the 3 BCAAs that help to the greatest degree with tissue and muscle repair.

2. Daily Supply

It’s important that you get all your amino acids and a dose of branch chain amino acids everyday and not just on workout days, since your body is repairing even more on your off days. 

3. Don’t Overdo

Like any food group or supplement, there is a point where you can take in too much and my suggestion is to focus on whole foods for BCAAs and using a protein shake to get a supplemental dose as needed.
