BCAAs are a total waste of money mate. Just have some whey instead

As with most things you can find something to prove/disprove depending what your looking for. There is some research that shows benefits when training hard. So I take it for insurance, to tick a box. I also want to take in the electrolytes, Citrulline Malate and L-Glutamine. It's better than water when training and taste good.

I have Whey in the morning, have done for the past 13 years I've been training.

Only really beneficial if you have a lower protein diet or struggle to meet your protein goal (vegetarian/vegan) surely???

Shark Spartan Carbon bike lid. It's my first Shark, I used AGV previously but liked the look of the Spartan Carbon and the reviews are awesome. Tried it out today for the first time and the quality of the lid is incredible. Love it. Understated graphics/colours but I think it still looks stunning.

Most of the studies on BCAAs focus on effects around training. With Whey it would need to be timed to break down and digest to be available in its BCAA form to have similar effects to just drinking BCAA. Don't get too hung up on the BCAA, studies and opinions aren't 100% agreed for sure, just like what does and doesn't cause you cancer. If it was purely about the BCAA I would be less inclined, but the other ingredients and it being an enjoyable drink add to the reasons.

Do the BBs get picked up at the end? Or do you just litter the place with plastic balls?

I only played indoors (in a derelict shopping centre) so the BB's were just left.
You can buy biodegradable BB's - which I hope are used for outdoor games because they wont be picked up.

nice lid!

Thanks. I'm normally an AGV lid buyer but tried a Shark for the first time a few weeks ago. IMHO the quality is streets ahead of AGV, Arai and Shoei.

Good-o

I think all outdoor places use bio ones now, have done for a while. So all good.

I've had the Sigma 85mm 1.4 EX lens for donkey's years now, probably since launch even. It is absolutely an epic lens, sharp and basically used at 1.4 for everything.

My only complaint with it is the lens hood is a bit naff. The locking bit that attaches to the lens wears over time and becomes loose to the point I bought a new official hood for £30. £30 for a piece of plastic, it's not even felt lined like the Canon ones are! And even that became loose after a year or so.

So now I went a different route and bought a £5 rubber hood that just works and screws into the 77mm thread, so no getting loose. Job jobbed.

3kg of diabetes. Currently on offer for £6.99 on Amazon, with free delivery. Sadly there are no strawberrys and cream sweets, which are my favourite.

I got this lovely collectible. Sadly trying to redeem the AMD 50 Game bundle is horrific. Sent AMD a ticket, last Tuesday, submitted all the required info they wanted, 3 times; and still no games provided. Damn shame though; but it sure is a nice addition to my collection.

are you going to use it or will it sit on top of your mantelpiece?

Just on the shelf with my other collectibles, with seal unbroken. My next upgrade will likely be later in this year, or early next year.

Just bought it too. I love a boiled sweet. My local shop charges about £2-3 for 150g. It’s a no brainer at this price.
