NOW Waxy Maize VS Vitargo

[python93]

I'm thinking of purchasing one of the two.
What are your thoughts on these for immediate optimal glycogen replenishment Post Workout?
Also would you discard both of these and take simple carbs from food sources instead?
How many grams of simple carbs is recommended after some heavy training?
Thanks!

personally i've never been a big believer in different designer carb supplements. if you want something for glycogen replenishment just go for dextrose. cheap, effective, and it really isn't much different than those 2 in terms of what they do for your body post-workout

[python93]

How many grams do you recommend?

[criticalbench]

Waxy maize is more than enough IMO, no reason to spend the cash on vitargo which is better, but price is not worth it IMO.

exactly, Buy Maltodextrin save 40 dollars and get the same effect......In most lifters, if you are buying a carbohydrate, it is most likely making you fat.

These carbs remind me of the day of Dextrose and Creatine. At least that made some sense...

Did you experience what most of the reviews say about vitargo?
They said withing 30 minutes after taking it post workout they felt their muscles fuller and being replenished?
And also I read a review about waxy maize and it's giving me second thoughts.
I can't post links but it's called "The myth of waxy maize starch" from bodybuilding.com
Pretty much saying that Waxy maize was crap and even worse than others

So would you recommend NOW Carbo Gain over NOW Waxy Maize or any other product

Buy dextrose. It's cheap and fulfills this purpose. Food is obviously preferred though.

Yes I have gotten that affect strangely enough! Makes perfect sense though. My body is craving it after a workout. It also restores my energy levels almost like I'm ready for another workout. Great for a bulk but avoid those simple sugars come cutting time, except for refeed days when you can carb the **** up!

Oatmeal + coffee grinder = profit

[djbombsquad]

You can do oats At 60% than 40% of vitargo!
That can make the stuff go a long way.

I've tried Dexrose, Maltodextrin, Waxy Maize, Vitargro. Can't say I've really noticed any difference between one and the others. And as far as the studies i've read, it really doesn't matter. It's all the same crap, so save your money. You can just eat some sugary carbs after and have the same effect and probably enjoy your carbs.
