In what sense? There's nothing wrong with being hungry first thing in the morning! Unless you are being woken up at 4am because your stomach is growling?

There was a discussion about branched chain amino acids on Mansized this week, leucine, isoleucine and valine.

This Wiki post below explains how bcaas are incorporated into muscle


Don’t get bogged down by the symbols.

The "proper" biochem (not meathead biochem) message is that to build muscle the body not only needs Bricks – bcaa, it also needs Brickies –ribosomes, mRNA etc. and ENERGY to build muscle.

Therefore, don’t just eat protein after a workout, you need carbs as well.

Milk and dairy products are a great source of bcaas

Anthony’s suggested snack after training of a bowl of cereal with milk or malt loaf with milk is a perfect choice if you don’t want to buy expensive supplements.

Rub cottage cheese into your biceps



Cheers PJ,

I do eat the carbs after a workout, or take a shake, but its more pre-bed?

How is your actual training/eating going? Are you seeing benefits in terms of your weights and stats?

Hi Liquid - I checked out the stats on Cyclone

60g scoop gives 30g Protein,21g Carbs and 230 cals.

I would go for a bowl of cereal last thing if you are waking up ravenous.

You are very unlikey to be short on protein, but you may well be short on carbs.

I am def lifting heavier weights, I do see a slight diff in my legs and chest, I think, I will stick at it for few more weeks, then may take pics, but have a good couple of weekends out coming up - and a few street parties :)

Why not a protein drink with milk...? Fills you up and provides protein.



I am taking protein, well Cyclone atm, but that alone isn't enough to see me through the nite.



I always get fat(ter) on Cyclone, how are you getting on with it?

I would only take one a day, maybe two portions (two scoops), maybe its not the best thing to take, I don't take it everyday, its more of a 'if i havent had time, or feel I have had enough intake' kinda thing. Though I am starting to take it more during nites.
