I curently use a mixture of.....

40g Whey Protein
20g Dextrose
20g Maltodextrin


Never really tried anything else, but I've read ALOT of conflicting reviews/write-ups about WaxyMaize.
-Some say its the PERFECT postworkout carbs source.
-Some say it has the same digestion rate/glycemic rating as White Bread.


Lets here your OPINIONS........and WHY!?!

You're gonna have to try them all out and decide for yourself.

I know, it's a crappy answer but it's true. A lot of people react a lot different to carb sources. Malto and dextrose are awful for myself. I'm partial to WMS and Sweedish oat starch is solid for me also.

I'll be trying some new carb sources here soon, Karbolyn, Vitatgo, SPP glycomyx

I use gummy bears bro, just about a hand full or 2 works really well for me, it's basically just like dextrose. Also you can put 2 tbsp of table sugar in your protein shake works well to

wms is crap dont even worry about that. and also know that post workout carbs arnt as important as youre thinking. whey protein also gives you a small insulin spike after a workout. now if your goal is extra calories khrough those carbs, then thats a different story

I use 20g of Dextrose in my preworkout, and 20g of Dextrose during my workout mixed in my atomic 7. Post workout I eat a tub of cottage cheese and a pack of poptarts. Gets the job done real nice and I can make it all fit my macros. Those extra carbs make for some great workouts for me. I still have some WMS laying around, and I gotta say, I do like that as well. Havent much experience messing with Malto or anything like Vatargo. Had some Karbolyn and it wasnt anything special. I just really dig my pre and intra carbs more so than post. Just my 2 cents.

Best carb? Whatever tastes good. For typical training bouts glycogen will not deplete to a level where there's a need for carbs post workout. Not to mention leucine alone, or 20g of protein will spike MPS.

Me personally,i always always always have a carb post workout a starchy one at that.Thats what i was taught yrs ago and stay with it and never had a problem. Usually i have a couple medium sized potatos...sometimes rice,i like how it fills me out.

You have to find what works for u..its trial and error man.

Or ..you can have a Juice post workout. I do it just about always. Cranberry juice/grape juice and vanilla whey is awesome.

I agree with gummy bears or bagle personally, its easier for me to shoot down some whey then eat somethin than it is to take down some of the carbs drinks
