I think the biggest argument is against bcaa's as a magic miracle bullet for preserving lean mass and all that happy horseshit.

Pre-workout IS the most important (compared to post) but on the same token..you damn sure better not be in a fasted state anyway. Nutrient timing and pre workout protein intake can be important but it is secondary to overall diet.

Aminos will simply not do all the various things they've been reported to do. That is just reality and some people experimenting and anecdotally saying it "works" for them is just meaningless.

But if someone is going to PERFORM better using bcaa's pre workout rather than whey due to stomach comfort...performacne IS the first consideration. And you'd be better off being in a well fed state rather than worrying about immediately pre workout intake but if you're in a deficit you can't always guarantee that of course.

If you act sanctimonious I will just list out your logical fallacies until you get pissed off and spew blasphemous remarks.
