I like Beverly's Glutamine Select with BCAAs. I think glutamine is overrated, but I take it just for the BCAAs. 10g in water that I drink throughout the workout. BCAAs are one of the few OTC supps that I think are worth it.

Can't speak intelligently on the dextrose.

Scivation Xtend for BCAA's. I drink it during pre-breakfast cardio and intra-workout. Dextrose for post workout with your protein to slam some glycogen back into the muscles.

Swear by these guys- mix the bcaas, 4 scoops is magic for me, drinkem down close to an hour before. Have another couple scoops in your water bottle-

Been mixing them with my sugar free nos energy drink- SWEET!

Apple 40 minutes or so before gym

Dextrose after with glutamine/whey isolate.

Go home and CHOW!

I took dextro before..
but i'me not a big fan of it..
after taking dextro i feel rly full and eat like shit afterwords..
I take bcaa only before my training after training i take wms(Waxy Maize Starch) and then my protein..
then i don't got that bloated feeling in my stomach from dextro and can eat alot after my workout..
this feels good for me..
ooh and i use different bcaa now i got interactive nutrition next time something else..

I take EAA's with dextrose and CM plus jack3d before and bcaa's during, with some whey and dextrose post. The things with bcaa's or any AA is you have to take enough to make a difference. 5g PRW is not going to do much, but 10 or more will over time.
