BCAA's are not useless at all. They are very important for many things..
just buying them by themself is a scam when they are so readily availible to people in their diet (and whey protiens if you choose to add). look at the cost between 1 serving of whey protien a of and the same amount of BCAAs in pill form. The whey is not only much cheaper, but it also has... 20g of protein
