Thank you for this! It gave me my first LOL for the day (and I damn near spit my Xtend all over the keyboard)

Sporto
 
I see the point you are making Sporto, just stating it was somewhat convoluted from post to post and caused confusion. I have no issues with a slip-up (depending on the starting BF of the individual) as long as it fits within the macronutrient goals of that individual for that day. I agree with you as well that these slip ups become problematics once an individual is at a certain level of conditioning.

If somebody is 24% BF a cheeseburger is not all that detrimental, if somebody is 7%, that is a different issue. IMO.
 
can somebody explain to me how you guys take your supercarb and how much of it you take. When i went to the np site it didnt give any info on how many carbs per serving it is.

There are 11.2 grams of carbs per tablespoon. I usually throw about 5 tablespoons into a protein shake, but I've put it in a shaker with just water and drank it before also.

I usually just leave the lid off and then when I goto grab the container, it falls and the powder explodes everywhere. I then scrape enough powder off of the ground for approximately 3.7 servings. Then I go cry.

so im guessing you take the carbs post-workout if you're mixing them with your protein shake?

I've done it pre also, when I was late getting my preWO meal in and I didn't want to eat a solid meal right before. I've done it post and as a meal replacement as well.
 
Yep, great info here.

GI for SuperCarb is indeed 32, and because of that, it's the perfect carb source for anything- pre-workout, post-workout (with a faster digesting carb like WMS), more calories throughout the day, replacing high-glycemic carbs, baking, etc.
