Post workout

Damn, 20lbs of dextrose? That would last years!... How does it taste with just water? That's why I like Gatorade, sure it's $150+ a year, but it tastes good!

What do you mix it with? I don't do crystal light anymore, gives me headaches and I know it's harmful.

I agree, taking the dextrose immediately, or just before the workout is done and waiting must be better because your body doesn't need to partition the nutrients= faster absorption.

It doesn't last years, more like 4 or 5 months.I'm going back to dextrose. I'm sick of waxy maize.

i always take 35-70 grams of waizy maize, 10grams glutamine, amino powder directly after workout..then about 20 minutes later ill have a 50 gram whey protein shake with 2 tblspoon olive oil..its worked great for me

i like this

This is fine, however I would strongly suggest buying dextrose at your local brewery, It'st way cheaper than gatorade powder.

Natron, you think eating things PWO like a bagel, poptarts,etc. is not a good idea? Also, what's your take on Karbolyn,waxy maize, vitargo,etc?

A liquid meal PW is ideal, but your next meal is important as well, and should be 1-1.5 hours after training.

waxy maize is a huge flop IMO, Im not even 100% sure about Karbolyn? But I'll look further into it.

I'll stick with dextrose though, based on performance and price alone

Vitargo, Karbolyn, Gatorade or Dextrose are the only carbs worth trusting. FUCK WMS.

I will admit that when I was 205lbs albeit fat, I used WMS... I'm now 175 fully bulked, 30 pounds less, but my waist is 32 opposed to 36 inches.


When dieting, why only 20grams of dextrose? Also, would the same 20 minute separation between dex and iso be used?

I dont use any seperation, I just said you can do that, if you so choose.

When cutting, I like to keep carbs lower, and dont feel a larger amount of insulin provide much benefit vs negative, you can go higher if you so choose

what would you guys say is the easiest on the stomach?? Dextrose, vitargo, WMS, Maltodextrin??

vitargo and malto, no doubt. But its also dose dependant. This is my only negative with dextrose, but, I lifts weights, I can deal with an extra 20 minutes for gastric emptying

Vitargo is. But it is expensive. Karbolyn acts almost precisely the same which is why I go with it...and its slightly more sensibly priced.

[Youngguns]

I used Vitargo the stuff Art was selling a few years ago, that stuff was insanely amazing.

Is it the same formula now? One scoop made my buzz around like a humming bird.

[NPCKnight]

Vitargo's rights are now owned by GENR8 speed and it is more expensive than it was...
I guess Art Atwood and Nutrex had the rights to sell it back then...that is also when I first found out about it and it worked amazing.
That being said, Art Atwood is who now sells Karbolyn. Somehow someway he found someone or concocted it himself...and its AS CLOSE to vitargo as youre going to find. I don't know what is it...how its made...how its similar or different, but the stuff works just about as good as Vitargo did..

well if bob chick says it,it must be right

[SLICED]

blah ,blah...I go against the grain..the 'you need a faster protein and carb thingy " makes a lot of sense but it's more a propaganda in favor of Supp Companies to sell you their shit and make money off you . I think is bullshit just like the 45 minutes 'WINDOW OF OPPORTUNITY CRAP" I always hated liquid meals (shakes) ..I always have solid meals even post workout ..usually 10 oz of chicken 2-3 cups of brown rice..you keep your GIRLY shakes,you gonna grow aright. ..I chew my shit..
