Debate over Post-Workout Carbs

["Rodz"]

Solution, what do u take in post workout? Currently I take 40g waxy maize, 40 g prot powder.
A guy at my gym (who suggests I use 450g carbs/day for high carb fat loss diet) suggests I consume 2 poptarts +2 scoops Gatorade powder w/my protein shake for post workout meal.

I haven't tried it yet. Too worried I'll store fat even though its post workout

looking at ur avi bro....................don't change anything ur doing.

Yessir! But would it also help to have those quick acting carbs intra workout? Or, divided intra and post?

What D said. In the offseason I love adding intra worout carbs just for the sake of getting cals up and the intra insulin release.

Yeah, the most recent studies are showing not much of a difference if you consume carbohydrate up to 4 hours post workout. I'm a pre-workout guy as well - it helps my performance in the gym.
