Iunderstand..but you are supplementing in a sense when he tells you to use BCCA's in between meals.I would rather have a small meals..not for protein absorbtion...but rather for my carbs not to spill over.Big meals with lots of carbs could spill over.Thats why i would prefer many small meals..some with a lots of protein..some with little protein supplmented with leucine.Do i make sense here Venom?

You can , and it may be good if you have small amounts of carbohdrates with your amino acid supplement. I would not have too many or too much fiber or your risk slowing digestion of the amino sup. But you could have 2 rice cakes for instance. That should allow you to distribute your carbs, more.

Ok..so let see if i got this right:

My first meal would be a whole meal...with at least 5 ounces of meat in order to get in the amount of Leucine i need.I dont want fibre here because it wil slow down absorption..at least not in the morning.

2 hours later,supplment with aminos...getting in 4 grams of leucine to maintain spike...with some sort of complexe carb.

2 hours later..another big meal.This time can i have fibre?And if i do..wont that slow down absorption in order to get my 4 grams of leucine into my blood stream quickly?

then just repeat the above in order to get the amount of macros you need in a day..

You can have fiber with any of your whole meals - breakfast included. Example diet:

8 oclock: 1 cup of oatmeal, 30 grams of whey protein, fish oil
10:30: amino acids, 2 rice cakes
1 oclock: chicken sandwhich

Repeat...

beta-alanine 1g with 10:30 amino's? i find this is helping me with the tingling feeling that 5g pre workout can give

[Venom]

Sure. I also have 1 gram at a time.
