BCAA or not?

Hi guys, I wonder what some of you think about taking BCAA before/after workouts and how necessary is this step for someone who takes a post-workout protein shake that already contains over 4g of Glutamine and over 5g of Leucine, Isoleucine and Valine?

I understand some may say, take it as a precautionary measure, BCAA’s kick in faster, why not – this stuff is comparatively cheap, etc., etc. , but really do you see any noticeable results in muscle synthesis with and without BCAA’s? To me, if I don’t have to think about another thing to take or time my BCAA intake with my empty stomach, that’s the way to go.

Also, this is not for somebody who would mix their own stuff, just looking for something simple and straightforward.
