I put on 20 punds this year and am finally ready to cut some body fat. I have my pre/during/post nutrition down for lifting (ON Whey, Creatine, BCAA’s, Glutamine, Surge) but I hardly ever hear any nutritional info for pure HIIT/endurance cardio work.
Since I’m trying to lose bodyfat, not increase my performance, do I want to skip supplements? Im thinking maybe just BCAA’s to help prevent muscle catobolism? Putting on the weight was easy, im just struggling like all hell to take it off.

I personally use BCAA pre/peri/post workout when doing conditioning work and on low carb days. I consume around 45g. Use as much BCAA as you can afford. I wouldn’t use Surge after conditioning work if trying to lose fat. I would save the Surge for PWO when lifting. Good luck.
