BCAAs are about it. Its all you need anything else is over kill. Take it in a protean shake or as a drink. the drink I have is arnold palmer flavor and very refreshing.
If you're protein intake is adequate than BCAAs are more or less flavored water. You are not triggering more muscle protein synthesis from them since you're getting enough from your diet. If you're following a plant based diet then your BCAA intake may be inadequate and it could be worth it at that point. It also depends on the dosing. Leucine, Isoleucine and Valine are the three big ones that are responsible for muscle protein synthesis so if your BCAAs or protein powder are low in these then the effect may be minimal.

Could there be some benefit from taking them? Sure, if you have the money to spend then go for it.

Pricey but you often get what you pay for with supplements.

Just saw this old post and thought I’d chime in! I feel you, man—recovery gets trickier as we age. Personally, I’ve found that staying on top of hydration and stretching is key. I also like to mix in some light cardio after workouts to keep the blood flowing. For muscle recovery, I’ve been using protein shakes and natural anti-inflammatories like turmeric. I’ve heard some people talk about using buy steroids online to aid recovery.
