† Some links are affiliate links — they do not change the ranking
Some store links are affiliate links: if you buy through them, this site may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. It changes nothing in the ranking: the score is computed beforehand and without reading those links, and products with no affiliate programme appear exactly the same. How it is calculated.

What each tub contains
Median dose per serving
Price per kilo does not tell you how much active ingredient is inside the kilo. This table does: for each ingredient, the median dose per serving at each store and how many products reach the dose backed by studies (the same reference this site scores with).
| Ingredient | USA Fitness | All other stores |
|---|---|---|
| BCAAEvidence-backed dose: from 5 g per serving | —7 of 7 contain it · none publishes the dose | 6 g119 of 119 contain it · 21 reach the dose |
The dose is per serving, not per tub. A big tub with a short dose forces you to take two scoops to get the same, and then it lasts half as long: that is why the price per dose in the next section does not match the price per kilo.
Why one is cheaper than the other
Factor by factor, with both stores’ data
USA Fitness costs 21 % more per kg than All other stores (€68.81/kg against €57.00/kg, medians of both catalogues). That difference does not come out of nowhere. These are the data that explain it, with each store’s figure alongside: pack size (median).
| Factor | USA Fitness | All other stores |
|---|---|---|
| Cost of one effective dosePrice per kg and price per dose point to the same store, so the dose does not erase the label difference: All other stores is cheaper both ways. | €0.344 | €0.285 |
| Pack size (median)All other stores sells bigger packs, and a big pack spreads the same tub, the same label and the same shipping over more kilos. Part of the price gap per kg is this and not a discount: comparing one store’s small pack with the other’s large one inflates the gap. | 420 g | 500 g |
None of these factors is an accusation. They are medians of what each store publishes on its pages on the day prices were collected: where a page does not declare a figure, that store does not count in that row instead of counting as a zero. A specific product can contradict its store’s median, and that is what the full table is for. How all of this is calculated.
This is a filter, not another ranking. The score that sorts this table is exactly the same as in the full BCAA comparison: the only thing removed here is the products that do not meet the criterion above. How it is calculated.
