did you add anything to it or just take it as directed on the label w/ no added carbs or protein?
Really man? I only started putting the PB in at the end of my bulk.. it seemed fine having the WMS with the whey, but idk next bulk I'll try immedietly having WMS then 15-25 min later having the rest of the shake.
Just some creatine mono. Its a pretty solid formulation. Check out the ingredient panel. NP has a killer (read: insane) deal on it right now.
yup ... got two tubs on hand from NP
Cool wrasslin, I think you'd have much more favorable results.
How about a Samuel Jackson? Good mother ****in' beer! You'll be ****in' fat girls in no time!
I'm using the Ergopharm GFPro Dutch Chocolate. Taste great and mixes well in a blender! You really have to shake tho if you use a shaker cup.
Hey man everyone is crazy about carbs after the work out..but your the first Ive heard of saying the carbs through out the day should be sufficient enough. Interesting...Based on the ratio of 2:1 (carbos
As far as mass retention (anabolic/anti-catabolic properties), it is NOT necessary for simple carbs after a workout. The carbs that you've been consuming throughout the week, the day, etc. should be complex carbs that will indeed guarantee there is no excessive glycogen depletion. A fast absorbing protein is reccommended immediately following an intense resistance training session. We don't need some 'super-carb' crap to magically shuttle the aminos to the muscle. It's a good suggestion for ectomorphs who are trying desperately to gain size, but as for most people you will end up just getting bloated and 'cosmetically' pumped.
As far as I go... I drink about 45 grams of Oryx Goat Whey (predigested pretty much) with water and I may eat a couple slices of Ezekiel cinn-raisin bread with it, or eat a wholesome meal about 45 minutes to an hour later.
hes right tho, unless you are doing serious marathon workouts (over 90 minutes of heavy lifting) its probably not too critical to get in significant carbs right after. I still think it makes me feel better, but that could be just psychological
Yeah, it's like going koo koo for Coacoa Puffs. Yeah, for sure the consumption of complex carbs throughout the day will more than cover your body's recovery. If you find yourself especially mentally drained after a workout, a banana is more than enough for some quick release and slow release sugars along with vitamins and minerals to get you back into balance.
this is exactly how i feel :cheers:
this one always makes me laugh. If you are one that believes that your muscles will start catabolism overnight, then you need to do alot more research and read a lot more book in the field of human anatomy & physiology. It just isnt going to happen. Now maybe after 40+ hours of no food, then you might want to get a protein shake.
Fruit smoothies are dope after a long cardio workout. Hellz yes. I'm about to do a lot of cardio now and I have some sliced strawberries and bananas waiting in the fridge here at the gym for when I'm done. Then I've got a Boarshead turkey and 1 slice cheese with roasted peppers and balsamic vinegar on Ezekiel bread waiting for after the fruit.Fruit smoothie lol and whatever else i'm in the mood
Post-workout drinks are over-hyped to hell.
Agreed. This product is pimpin.
currently i just intake around
never had it, just searched it up ..yahh it is kinda pricey esp for only 20servings .. how does it taste/mixes easily ?
I must recommend Biotest's Surge (original flavor)..
Whats HFCS?
mixes good. I work out three days per week Dc training so if this is the case it lasts longer. I used to take two servings of it. lasted me a month
You're absolutely right! I'm siting here staring at the ingredients as I type this... I always thought that it was a glucose drink!! Wow! starting tomorrow, I'm gona have too find something else to drink PWO now... How is that ON 2:1:1 recovery drink?
I suggest giving "Nutrient Timing: The Future of Sports Nutrition" a good read.. It shows the science behind what actually is important, and when it is most important. This book has completely set the way I view pre, during, and post workout nutrition... In a good way
.. Oh, and it backs everything up with scientific studies... Such a good read.I suggest giving "Nutrient Timing: The Future of Sports Nutrition" a good read..

Sure..
Well, when I say 10 minutes pre-workout and throughout the rest of the workout... I mean that you begin sipping the drink 10 minutes pre, and finish it by the end (not at the end though, because that's where your immediate post workout drink is).. Drinking it before and during is mostly to blunt the rise in cortisol that would normally be associated with a prolonged period of weight training.
