1) What's a good brand? I'm looking at Higher Power and AST
2) When should I take it if I'm taking NO XPLODE? and how many grams in the servings too.
3) If I were to be taking NO XPLODE, CEE (Creatine Ethyl Ester), and Glutamine... when would I take all that crap? lol It says NO XPLODE take 45 mins before workout, glutamine 30 before 30 mins after and before bed, and the CEE is said to take 30 mins before and 30 mins after. So thats 3 pre-workout servings to take and 2 post workout things to take (along with my protein) I heard you arent supposed to take glutamine with NO?

Answers to any questions is appreciated. Thanks.

your thinknig too hard a bout all these supplements.. im not a beleiver in all the supplements out their nowadays.. all you need is protein and food and your set... most protein powders have tonnes of amino acids in each serving as well... take your creatine and noexplode before workout, and jam all the protein and glutamine down your throat post workout...

I dont agree with that, im a great believer in L-Glutamine (its prob one of the best supplements out their. I take 5g (when bulking) or 10g (When Cutting) before my workouts, then 5g straight after my workout with my recovery shake (35g Protien/ 80g Carbs) and then 5 grms before bed... I always make sure im stocked up with glut at all times... very good for keeping muscle mass when cutting and also makes your muscles recovery quicker from your workouts. I use myprotiens.co.uk glutamine costs £2.45 for 100g but thats coz i live in the uk. Im guessing your american tho so not sure about best products over there..

I heard recently that the claims of L-Glutamine's assistance in recovery where a hoax. I heard this from a pretty reliable source too. Something to do with the original producers paying doctors to give false claims on it's abilities and all it is is expensive white crsytaline powder that disolves into nothing. I'll try and find more information on it but I tend to trust the guy that told me this.

there are no studies showing it's positive effect on humans that A) don't have a degenerative disease and B) take it intravenously

glutamine is garbage.

That's probably why I couldn't find anything to either back up what I heard or dismiss it. I'll save my money for now unless a sponsor wants to give it to me.
