Post Workout Power Chews Survay

[thenightmare2]

What would you like to see in the upcomming Power Chew Post Workout and what dosage would you like to see in there?

 

[DEE151]

any thing that is good for post work out just as long it is high in what ever then it will be g2g

 

[thenightmare2]

Nobody else has any thoughts?

 

[DEE151]

Nobody else has any thoughts?

may be cause we already got what you need for post work out.
like we got glutamines and bcaa and creatine all 3 of these are the best you can use for a post work out then you add your protein shakes to this and your g2g.
so for a post work out chew it might be a lil hard to come up with something wen we got 3 of the best supplements already you can take for a post work out.

 

[Milas]

You're never going to fit in full post workout nutrition in the chews, so I'd skip to protein and carbs. I'd also avoid glutamine and creatine since you already have products for those needs and they're dosed appropriately, trying to add them in here would not give a sufficient dose. The best you can hope for is an anabolic igniter.

What you'd be looking to do is kick start mTOR and increase nutrient uptake similar to Genomyx Protocol and Need2Slin combined. This would be a perfect fit for taking immediately post workout but before a shake or meal. By taking the chews, you'd increase the anabolic activity of whatever you ate. Think of it like taking insulin post workout before you eat, your muscles will suck up all the nutrients you can throw at it and build muscle!

Actually, this would be the perfect niche for PowerChews to be in since the only reason I don't take protocol is because I don't want to take 3 shakers to the gym (1 pre/intra, 1 protocol, 1 post shake). The chews would be convenient and easy to take right after working out, and then follow it up with a shake or meal. This would make the meals much more anabolic, and also get the recovery process going faster.

Ingredients would look like:

Leucine 3-5g (starts mTOR and muscle protein synthesis)
LCLT 500-2000mg (increases anabolic receptor density, absorbed with insulin)
Na-R-ALA 250mg (insulin mimicker, it will help shuttle nutrients to the muscles)
Gymnema Sylvestre (75% gymnemic acid) 250mg-500mg (insulin mimicker)
Banaba Leaf (20% Corosolic Acid) 20mg (glucose uptake, block adipogenesis)
Norvaline 100mg (vasodilator opens up veins to deliver nutrients to the muscles)


That'd be pretty kickass, and a standout... You could even take them before ANY meal, not just post workout. You could cover 2 very sizeable markets that need more convenience and would be a perfect fit for Chews.

^^^^This. Think of the inovation this would be.

 

[RickRock13]

I think Milas has pretty much the best idea how to properly do post workout chews

 

[DEE151]

is there any updates on this? such as what will be inside the chews?

 

[RickRock13]

is there any updates on this? such as what will be inside the chews?

Inquiring minds want to know!!

 

[Young Gotti]

i'd like to see this soon, milas has good ideas...anything for recovery that tastes like candy is a big bonus

 

[RickRock13]

Yeh man. I'm looking forward to these!

 

[DEE151]

whey iso protein chew would be good. about 5g of protein in each tablet =20g of whey iso.
protein is one of the best out there for your muscles to recovery.

 

[Young Gotti]

whey iso protein chew would be good. about 5g of protein in each tablet =20g of whey iso.
protein is one of the best out there for your muscles to recovery.

20g's of protein for a serving of chews would be awesome

off topic, but i could use some caesin chews as well for the night time

 

[AutoKal47]

+1 on the whey chews, make a choc flavor for those thanks

 

[RickRock13]

A whey protein chew is an excellent idea and gives a great alternative to shakes. I think those would sell like crazy!

 

[BarbellBeast]

Ya if you could fit the whey iso in the chews that would be friggin amazing! A bit hit for sure. No longer caring a shaker around.

I think this would be a great idea for a powerchew!

 

[Blergs]

A whey protein chew is an excellent idea and gives a great alternative to shakes. I think those would sell like crazy!

this idea i dontlike. way top much chewing for howmuch protein i take in lol
BCAAs and glutamin are great.
I like using the better protien bars with some extra whey added for chewing in my protein

 

[Blergs]

the rest i rather drink myself
