Description

You’ve probably been influenced by the ads with promises of faster recovery, less soreness, and more muscle online. But do BCAAs, branched-chain amino acids, actually deliver on the hype or are they just another supplement that will sit in your cupboard?In this episode, I’m breaking it all down: what BCAAs really are, what they’re supposed to help with, and what the science actually says about their effectiveness. We’ll talk about why some people swear by them, when they might be useful, and when they’re just an overpriced way to make your water taste good.If you’ve ever wondered whether you need BCAAs for results or if your protein-rich diet is already doing the job, this episode will give you the clarity (and maybe save you some cash).Creatine Episode 236Protein Revolution Episode 196Get Gut Personal HERE (my FAV supplements!)Do you feel like your metabolism has slowed down?
