Simple Carbs post workout
Can I get some good suggestions for some post-workout carbs? Ill be stopping the Plasmavol soon because it has creatine in it and I need to see just how far im progressing in this diet so far.
What kind of simple carbs and how much would be adequate in a contest diet?

I posted a very similar questuion a little while ago in the anabolic forum and the consensus seemed to be 50 g dextrose post-workout. I'm sure we'll have some different opinions though. Just my .02.

I limit myself to 25gm dextrose and 25gms protein, because I'm trying to cut a bit. If I wasn't I would double both of those amounts.

Regardless of my goals, post workout I always take 80-100 grams dextrose and 50 grams WPC. If I'm bulking or cutting I'll change everything else but not my post workout recovery.

Biggie, you should be able to buy straight dextrose at any bulk food store.

I would tend to agree that u still need the dextrose after you train regardless of whether you're dieting or not. I think that you'd be jeopardizing your muscle by not taking it in. It's so important to refuel, I would think especially when dieting.

Best postworkout drink is
40 Grams Whey Protein Hydrolysate
60 grams Maltodextran
20 grams Dextrose
8 grams BCAA's
2 grams Taurine
10-20 grams L-Glutamine
10 Grams Creatine
It helps also to do a pre work out drink of 30 grams whey Hydro and 25 grams of dextrose and maltodextran.

This is some useful information, thanks everyone for the input. Does anyone know where I can get dextrose in a store in southerncal. Also if I'm dieting isnt the dextrose going to slow down my fat loss?

I've read that you can buy dextrose in pet stores. Also a store that sells brewing supplies for home brews.

Just an update. What I have done is cut the Plasamvol intake to 1/3 of what I was taking before. I only use the stuff post workout and I am quite happy thus far.
