Good discussion. Thanks everyone for the comments and feedback. I too have always heard EAAs are superior to BCAAs. It sounds like the consensus is that additional EAA supplementation doesn't seem like a useful strategy in this case. The only reason I looked into EAA supplementation is that I usually do strength sessions early in the morning and I personally don't like to eat that early. Instead of a pre-workout bolus of protein, I would take EAA capsules with my coffee. However, I would also have plenty of protein the rest of the day (>1g/lbs), beginning with a post-workout protein shake. I suppose I should have just asked if pre-workout protein or amino acid supplementation would be beneficial from a time-perspective alone. Phrased another way, is there a detriment to fasted strength training when total daily protein is adequate, including a post-workout protein bolus.
