    Best time to take my Glutamine?

    I am currently cutting so I am doing cardio b4 breakfast and weights early evening.

    My question is when should I take my glutamine? The label says 30 mins b4 exercise, immidiately after and b4 I go to bed.

    So sjould I take b4 and after cardio, weights or both.

    If the answer is both should I still take b4 bed os will that be too much?

    Cheers.

    The answer is, a question.

    How much glutamine is it? 5g? 2g? Is it in pill form, or powder with a drink?

    Most will say that Glutamine is a waste but whatever, you think is having an affect.

    People who do like Glutamine suggest higher doses 20-30 grams a day spread throughout the day.

    But me personally I wouldn't waste the coin, and would opt for some BCAA's

    it's in powder form and it's 5g a go.

    I also take BCAA's anyway.

    I think it's beneficial to take glutamine because I usually do my cardio on an empty stomach so it stops too much muscle break down.

    You get glutamine from your protein powder, if you take that.
