I do Intermittent Fasting, so i take BCAAs during my fasted workout. I also throw BCAAs into my casein shake before bed. Personally, I've felt the most muscle growth while taking BCAA supplements. To each their own though.

Sidenote: Why is that when I don't go to the gym I tend to make bad food decisions. It's like "sure I'll have one of those cookies, ooo chips yea let me get some, Is that pink lemonade, oh yes please pour me a cup" It's an endless dirty little cycle I go through.
Days I go I eat clean.
Try doing something physical on your days off whether cardio or just stretching. Might help.

Forgot how important your core is. I have a problem with not contracting and thinking about my core when I lift and just go through the motions, but man when you think about using and contracting your core, it helps, plus your able to lift more IMO.

I`m dreading having to look for a gym to join, LA Fittness is looking like my choice since they are all over atlanta, but I can only work out when I get off work (like 430-5pm) but I hear LA Fitness is sooooooo packed since that is peak hours.

I'm in Jersey but my LA Fitness is a zoo after like 330. I've been experimenting with what times are good and if I go around 3-4, it's packed with HS kids. I went at like 5 once and it was FULL with people
I was heated man. They had a DJ there and everything. I thought I walked into a club - never again lol. 
I wouldn't have a problem with a lot of people being there/waiting but the place is a mess. Weights everywhere, not enough barbells. I'm sure it won't be too bad a little bit later though. 7 or so.

Yea I was thinking about going at like 8, but I go to sleep around 11-1130 and dont want to be restless. And I dont think I can do that Morning workout because I am not a Morning person AT ALL. Ive been thinking about joining a smaller gym but my only fear is accessibility. I`m not at a point where I travel heavy, but with LA fitness I like the idea that I can go lift when I`m at my moms house, at my pops house, at my house, by my job, at my gils house, or heck if I go out of town.

About a minute starting off, but can be tough so you can rest a couple of min

Just avoid 5-8 and youll be alright.
Morning workouts feel AMAZING, you already feel accomplished for the day and you'll be more likely to follow through with eating healthy cause you woudnt want to mess up the morning workout. 5-8am actually is pretty "crowded", not the same as 5-8pm crowded, but more than you would think. After 8am, people usually are off to work, and it gets pretty chill.

I work 8-5 so Id have to go crazy early. I found a Gym called Iron House Fitness its 35 a month no contract, looks like a big warehouse with a ton of weights. lol Type of Gym you would have seen Rocky train in http://ironhouse.org/gallery.html
theres a Worlds gym too right down the road from it, but Ive ready shady stuff about their billing, but joint is 40,000 square foot. With Iron House though I know its gonna be just lifters there, because I dont even think they have any if much cardio stuff.

sup brahs.
been doing crossfit a few times lately. it's coo. i can climb ropes and stuff now.
but, any new supps out there? anything that's surpassed intrabolic/presurge? lately i've noticed the taste has gotten worse. they seem to have cut back on quality. plus their new marketing sucks. which leads me to believe they're fumbling what i saw as the best supplement company out there.
so i ask yall, what beta-alenine/pre work outs have come out that are better? i tried a sample of ON's pre-work out. tasted amazing. felt good too.

I usually go to LA Fitness at its peak hours 5-8 and it can be bad at times but I never really have a problem getting my workouts in. Mondays are the absolute worst, but I only gotta wait a couple extra minutes to use something.

yea I dont like waiting or sharing at all, I like to hit my stuff boom boom boom then bounce. There is a LA fitness across the street from my job so I could literally get there at 5 on the dot but I assume thats gonna be too late, and I cant do the lunch time workout because Id need 2 hours PLUS time to shower. I guess just finding 1 gym is gonna be my best bet,
