It's pretty much pure dextrose. I've been using powered Gatorade and that's been working well, but what are your thoughts on these? I've basically got an unlimited supply lying around at work.
Recently became a post workout dextrose user and like it thus far. I guess I'm asking if all dextrose is created equal and if these sound like a viable option.If your already a dextrose user, then do it. Im not gonna tell you to spend hard earned money to avaoid any potential sweetners. Are you asking about dextrose in general, or just if their is something wrong with this particlar product?
Well I'm certainly not saying I know what's best for post workout carbs. In fact, I'm interested to hear everyone's thoughts on the matter. Either way, cost effectiveness is a high priority for me personally. So no WMS for this guy.I don't see the point. I feel better, look better, and perform better using a nice complex carb after training. Just because something is what's always done doesn't mean its always right.
Yeah, it's really tough to say. For the last few months, the time during which these changes were all made, I've been on a cut and haven't really seen either a definitive increase or decrease in any direction. But that's probably because my diet is so dialed in when it comes to macros and my cardio has been on point as well.When you've made your alterations from whey to whey+oats to whey+dextrose, what have you noticed? Were they isolated changes so that nothing else could have affected your results?
I'd say that would be your indicator as all bodies react differently. If you're looking to cut and work out later in the day, there's nothing wrong with just rocking protein and going without carbs. But again, I'd say let your past results determine what route you go.
************************************************************************Some things that need to be cleared up:
Muscle glyocogen replenishment doens't NEED to be as fast as possible. Whether the carb source comes from dextrose, frucutose, sucrose, lactose or whatever, the rate of proteins synthesis remains the same. The negative effects of high GI at large amounts just rear its ugly head over time.
