Reply With Quoteto be honest, if you are worrried about the calories in BCAA, you are taking counting calories far, far too seriously.
Rounding on lables probably costs you much more than the BCAA.
It aint supposed to be THAT exact.

Do you count calories from BCAA/Glutamine?
Because Derek(Beast), over at bb.com doesnt count them, and a couple of board members said they are incomplete proteins so they wouldnt have much calories anyway.
E.g(10g of BCAA doesn NOT equal 40 calories)
Thoughts?

It's because when i'm mega-dosing during a cut/bulk... it can come up to 240 calories.

So should i continue to count them? Or should i not be so anal?
