Thread: Post workout Carb Question

Once you get to a certain level of healthy carbs, I don't think one it better than the other. That said, real food is optimal. I have the product you are referring to and I don't find it any different than the next (in terms of recovery). The nice thing about it is you can bring it anywhere and mix with a lot of things. When I don't have food sources around I use it in shakes. Nothing magical here.

I like to sprinkle some dextrose on my white rice and have it immediately after my workout. I’m a big believer that fast acting carbs with some salt and water really help refuel your muscles post workout

imo it depends on your goals and individual responses to BG spikes and insulin release... short answer?
If your cutting or recomping eat 'cleaner' carb sources like white jasmine rice , basmati or white potatoes... if adding weight, eat sweet cereals, pancakes with honey, or something like eggos... this is me tho... also depends if exogenous insulin is being used at the time...intra workout is always gatorade powder... seems to work for me and it tasty as fuck!

so true... if reallly working up a sweat i found something with a little more potassium like potatoes works well

IMO...Karbolyn , hands down the best pre/post workout carb source I’ve used.
