Today was my second workout in 3 days with protein shakes (pre and post), BCAA, and glutamine. I think they def take the edge off my DOMS but nowhere near 100% nor 50% either — just the edge, making everything way more bearable. Also I really don't feel as wiped out.

I usually do a post workout protein only. There’s also L-alanine. But generally I listen to my body, if I’m too wiped that means that I’m increasing load too fast or not resting enough. I’m not a competitive athlete so I’m not willing to spend too much money for marginal gainz

Yeah, but I was literally with DOMS for half of the days for the past year.

I've found a similar reprive from DOMS with post BCAAs+protein mixed with a LOT of water (1.5 liters). The extra water seems to get ahead of the deep-seated inflammation.

Oh, interesting. Any idea why that works?
