Which Potatoes are best for bulking? yams or baked potatoes

 

[Beowulf]

Yams. Lower GI. Regular potatoes have very little nutritional value, and a very high GI.

Sweet potatos. The big ones are best.
Red Skins are ok ....but Sweets are loaded with nutritional value.

White potatoes are great in a post workout meal though. They are also high in potassium. Red skin are slightly higher in fiber. Eat the skin. If you're bulking, they're great. If you're trying to stay lean, sweet potatoes are better IMO. Mashed potatoes is the food of the gods(tastewise)!!!

Sweet potatos are your best choice, but a baked white potato doesn't have a much higher gi value.

I like the Alexia brand potatoes. The ones I eat are seasoned with garlic, olive oil and cheese. They are frozen, so I just put them in the oven for 20 minutes and BAM!!! the perfect preworkout meal!!!

Try it!!!

I like to take the redskinned taters and cut them in fourths, spritz them with a little olive oil and sprinkle them with chopped rosemary, garlic powder and sea salt and bake them. It smells so good and tastes even better.
