For the guys that really want (don't need) an intraworkout ! This is an homemade one
- 500ml of spring water (check the ph above of 7,5 is perfect)
- 250ml coconut water (tones of electrolytes, and well balance)
-250ml cranberry juice or another fruit juice (if freshly press even better)
- Raw honey (quality carbs good micro nutriments too, pro biotic? )
- a dash of lemon juice. (vit C and alkaline)
BOOM an homemade intraworkout. More effective, healthier, less expensive, "natural" and well probably tastier than these shitty intraworkout on the market.
I call it the "Whitestonelab" intraworkout Lol.

I've been working out for an very long time ;I have taken pre workout, I have taken post workout, but I have never used intra workout before, I pretty much thought that it would just a waste of money considering I'm on a budget practically all my life raising four girls but this this is doable, I'll think I might give it a shot first thing tomorrow,,....,glad I checked the threads before bedtime...

Coconut water is really good. Try Zico coconut water.

ehh, i prefer a real intra workout drinks...it has to have aminos/protein in a lightly flavored drink and i'll pass on the carbs in an intradrink

how are the carbs in honey "quality" it's like pure fructose and glucose. lawl. Also the "cranberry juice" you are likely using is loaded with sucrose.

Yeah I understand what you mean. But I think that if you eat a protein/carb meal before your workout (2/3 hours before it) and then you take your regular protein shake or a complete meal (protein and carb). You already have a constant stream of amino acids in you system; You don't need to sip an intra workout for it. Unless you train like a mad man for 2 or 3 hours in a row.

Well my reasoning behind calling Raw honey a quality (fast acting) carb is : that Macronutriment wise it's a fast acting source of carb. Micronutriment wise it has vitamin C, calcium and Iron. It has antifunfic and antibacterial properties. It has other types of antioxidants and oligoelements. Especially if the Honey is Raw (as i suggested).
SO You have all the property you want for an "intra carb drink" for performance as well as for recuperation and health purposes.
That's why I advise raw honey versus HBCD (lol) from Prime nutrition intra-workout.
But hey do what you wantLast edited by davidcua; 01-21-2015 at 04:25 PM.

Only time I ever felt the need for an intraworkout anything was when I was training 3-4 hours for aerial. Then it was pretty much just some BCAAs dumped in Gatorade.

Had my workout early this morning ,tried it out for the first time ,awesome workout, not necessarily sure if I did the same measurement per ml but, hey.....it worked, preparing it as we speak in a gallon container so it will be ready whenever I want to rock and roll, thanks.I just combine two of my favorite things ,effectiveness and thrifty (some might call it cheap)..

I don't think the exact measurement are important at all. I made them up just thinking about how much carbs, water etc we could benefit from in our Home made INtra workout. If you felt great than that's awesome !
Thanks for your review weezer ! We might call it the "no bullcrap" intra-workout! And concurrence Prime Nutrition with it : A better intra-workout for 1/20th of the price LOL

Yeah right that's what works best. Water. But I gave an example or intra -workout that you could make at home with healthy and effective ingredient that does not Rape your wallet as Prime nutrition or company intraworkout do.
Just remember they try to sell you sugar and amines for the price of Lobster just sayin'
