Waxy Maize During Workout

I'm into an MSCI right now, but it is geared more towards exercise science and fields pertaining to that. I am planning on being an orthopedic surgeon, but those plans could change. I'm just going to go with the flow as of now. What are you studying?

Thanks for the input everyone. I have heard good things about waxy maize intra workout as well as post. However, russ products like intra-aid contain only 10g waxy maize accompanied by BCAA's and EAA's as well as 8g hydro whey. So it seems to me that only small amounts such as 10g wouldn't draw all the blood to the gut that higher amounts would and aid in stamina throughout the workout. That's just my informed reasoning. However, I have seen WMS just taken post workout and I think that this would be an effective approach as well as long as a good carbohydrate meal is eatin 1-1.5 hours prior to a hard workout and xtend is sipped intra workout. There are also designer products out that have higher amounts of waxy but I do agree that too much will be detrimental to the workout. All input is welcome guys!

We didn't put a ton of carbs in Intra-Aid as we didn't want it heavy on the stomach so your reasoning is correct. Just to clarify we use a mixture of wms, dex & malto. One of the benefits of wms is that it is easy/light on the stomach and works well with the hydro whey and free form amino's that are in Intra-Aid.

I like the formulation of intra-aid and I saw the different mixture of carb sources (which I like). I would love to try this stuff out, especially for my bulk that is coming up, as it seems like a solid product that gets great reviews. However, I have some xtend left and I'm kind of weary of products before I dish out the dough for them :D. But very solid reasoning behind intra-aid. Looks good to me
