So I bought BCAA's for the first time as I never thought they were exactly a priority but since i started working I thought my busy schedule would need aminos to recover more efficiently.
I wanted to ask what do you guys think the optimal amount of bcaa's is? Would 20 grams be optimal? let's say 2 times a day, 10 grams per serving?
Also when do you guys take BCAA's? During, before or after workouts? I heard you can take it any time but i've seen that a lot of people take it during their workout.

Taking about 15-20g daily is a general recommendation. If you're working out, going to somewhere between 20g-30g isn't a bad idea. Maybe 3 servings of 10g each?
I do take mine any time of the day really. Normally in the morning, then I sip on them during a workout, and sometimes I will have them later in the day if I feel like something sweet, but don't want to consume calories.
If you were splitting it up into two servings, I would go with during your workout, and then either morning or post-workout - it's up to you. Or just go with 3 times. Morning, during your workout and post-workout.
