Thread: USP labs modern BCAA???

Yes it is good though overpriced. Blue raspberry is the better flavor IMO.

power shock is my fav intra workout

thanks for the responses guys. what is a cheaper alternative to the USP labs version?

Yeah I've heard mixed reviews both ways so I'd give it a shot but dont be discouraged if its not your thing, there are other awesome products, too

power shock, atomic7 are both priced around 20bones, i like them both, intrabolic is similarly priced, but excellent as well.....i like all more than xtend, much more....even MAP is alot better, just the taste isnt as good as the power shock

The taste is eh, but the product is really good. I dont complain about the price because its not just BCAA is also has sustamine

Ive got to try that powershock. djm is always talking about it. I really do like Modern bcaa's from usp labs, especially with the inner circle release deal, but I doubt ill get it again. So far ibcaa's is the best deal ive come acrossed for bcaa's and I add it to MAP. If Leukic wasnt so darn expensive id just add 6 tabs of that to my ibcaa's. Other wise Leucine powder plus ibcaa's might over power MAP for taste.

You can't go wrong with Xtend, Purple Wraath or the new AI RecoverPro. More and more research is coming out showing that the 8:1 ratio is more marketing than anything. 5 grams before a meal 3 times a day will do a lot more for you than a fancy 8:1 bcaa mix; great for fasted training though if you do that. I threw flavoring in my unflavored I had left over, it is great but I wouldn't pay $30 for it.

im pretty sure its not effective for muscle growth seeing as its a pre workout but thanks for the input big guy. haha

Ajinomoto BCAA is a great choice

has anyone tried it? Im thinking of buying a tub because I like USP labs JACK3D pre workout drink. thanks

I tried it and returned it. Doesn't mix well at all. I have a tub of another bcaa powder at work, believe it's by Precision Engineered? Doesn't mix worth a damn.

Both products might provide an excellent bcaa, but for mixability (and I'm assuming a good product) I am ordering more of ON's bcaa powder:

Optimum Nutrition Instantized BCAA 5000 Powder 336g

^^^ That's a link to Orbit Nutrition which is one of IronMagazine's sponsors, btw.

Our Ibcaa's are from Ajinomoto : )

Also our Instantized branch amino acids come in a 1000g tub for under 50 dollars, a much better deal than Optimum Nutrition.

So it mixes as well as ON's?

I think it's Precision Engineered and I know USP doesn't mix at all.

(Googles)

Yeah, that's the stuff. Doesn't mix at all. If yours mixes as well as ON's then I'd buy it.

the stuff still tastes gritty, but DOES mix very well in water with some gatorade powder, or into my prewo ect ect
