Anyone using leucine at the moment and getting good results? say if the goal is to build lean mass adding this and some waxy maize 40g max pwo is a good mix with the whey or bit keen?
Yes!! Very worth it.
Yes, absolutely. The reasons for using it are explained in the CBL book, as well as in this DH article: http://www.dangerouslyhardcore.com/524/the-secret-of-leucine/Hope this helps.
thanks man, yeah i doubled checked through the book and it justifies it, just in regards to throwing some waxy maize in there do we really need it or is it just more of an accessory?
Waxy maize and dextrose can help just as much as Leucine. However, I would use Leucine for sure with whey and Creatine PWO. Dextrose/waxy maize is beneficial just as much.

Leucine is essential!Let's put it this way, post-workout on CNS, all I intake is: 1 scoop whey protein isolate5g creatine monohydrate10g l-glutamine12g BCAA's (potency of 8:1:1 in favor of Leucine)pinch of table salt(in 32oz. water)...and I am growing muscle as well as losing fat. That is unheard of on CNS. It is part to do with my genetics, but I am helping them along with the right nutrition and supplements!Cory

Cory, Curious why the pinch of salt? Also why not any Whey Hydrolysate? I've been taking 20g isolate and 20g hydro pwo? Is that too much, I noticed you only do 20g? Is there a reason it's only 20g?
The super thing about Leucine is that it gives a huge insulin spike without the carb load. So adding Leucine to your shake with carbs will pump those carbs even faster into your muscles and clear the carbs from your system even quicker.On CNS it has a number of benefits, again the insulin spoke to get out of a catabolic state without carbs. What this will also do is clear the carbs that your body has created during anaerobic exercise and push these into your muscles thus pushing you back into a fat burning state again.
