I'll take whey at night, too, mixed with milk right now. I'd rather take it easy on my digestive system than have a bulky meal sitting there and making me restless during the night.
Any other time beside post-wo, I'd rather have a whole food protein source.

I like Ultra Peptide for bedtime shake. Super Slow release.....Sometimes I add CC....

I proally couldn't get away from the milk sugar that late though....
 
In addendum

I keep a bottle of BCAA's just in case I wake up, or sometimes shakes.....But a warm shake isn't all that tasty.
 
In addendum

I've been making myself shakes when I wake up during the night
everything tastes so much better after waking up in the middle of the night

If you are trying to lose weight, do not do carbs during workout, and I never condone plain old sugar.

If you are going to design your own Post-Workout shake, I would say: AST's DGC (Dextrorotatory Glucose Crystal) for your source of carbs (50g) + AST's VP2 Protein (24g);

Or substitute VP2 for Ergo's GF PRO.

For post Workout I take Biotest's Surge. Best PWO shake out there IMHO.

P.S.
Post-Workouts is one of the only times I will recommend Whey. Other times First thing in the morning, and pre-wo.

Well, Berardi is the one stating sugar during + immediately post workout in the metabolic advantage. I thought it would be interesting to try for a day. Not a huge amount of carbs that way mind you, maybe 20-30 during workout, and another 40-50 post.
 
in addendum, I tend to like whey quite a bit, and was using it too much. I think I will buy some unflavored milk protein, or casein instead to try.
 
post addendum, I don't got Dextrorotatory Glucose Crystal, so to a do a roll my own its either sugar, maltodextring or kwik-carb (WMS)
 
he does have a concise and interesting definition of success, but I just couldn't listen to his voice for any longer than to hear that explanation
 
In addendum...er wait..

Chest night was awesome. I'm almost back up to 5 plates per side on the damn Hammer Strength bench machine. I never free weight bench. Never liked it...er hold on...
 
In addendum I've never really liked doing a free weight bench press. I'll do dumbells, cables, and pec deck as well. So instead of the aforementioned 5 plates/side I was able to get 4 plates + 1 35lb plate per side unassisted for 5 solid reps. Should be nailing 5 plates/side in 2weeks.
 
In addendum I was doing 5 plates/side on that machine before I was stricken with walking pneumonia about 8 weeks ago. I hate that ****.

Everybody is on the whey bandwagon. Whey is great for anabolism, but it is in and out quick, which is only suitable for post-wo and first thing in the morning shakes. Other than that, you want a steady flow of aminos.....

Of course, if you mix the whey with peanut butter, it will slow down absorbtion. No?

I will have to reread what he is referring to, because I do not recall him saying such, and even if so. Berardi was/is an ectomorph, where you are an endomoroph.

it was straight out of the metabolic advantage. I was surprised too. so today I took in around 115g of carbs, 25g in quinoa preworkout, 20 g during workout as sugar in gatorade, 20 g in post workout shake as WMS, and 50g in whole grain oat bread as post workout meal. No more carbs other than trace in vegetables rest of the day.
 
Anybody know what year and model of this MB is???

The book is at home so I need to read it see exactly what he is referring to.
 
Its his "metabolic window". he says that during workout + the three hours that follow simpler or just about any carbs are ok. Specifically during workout he prefers dextrose use, as it all gets burned up during the workout anyway. It felt good anyhow. :) Was a nice workout today, got a good pump with taking 1g of yellow gold

As I stated, you take the information out of context and neither is relevant to you.

First and foremost the first quote is about post-workout: "...the ideal post-workout carbohydrate..."

Secondly: "...workout nutrition protocols I use and find most effective with my strength/power and endurance athletes."

Are you an athlete Easy???? Training for competition?: "...competition periods (World Cups, etc)"
