POST WORKOUT NUTRITION

[trainlikeadog]

hey guys, what exactly do you take post workout?? this includes supps and liquids/foods. i usually take whey with a banana or 2 but thinking about having whey and another liquid sugar drink with creatine. what you think?

[Mrbig]

just grab some glucose powder from the supermarket and take no less than 50g bananas are ok but fruit isnt the best for instant glucose and ofcourse some protein

but yea creatine is great to phosphagen elite by eas is actually really good

[PeterDolan]

take no less than 50g

That's alot, why do you believe so much?

[alps]

a banana and 48g of whey

[Mrbig]

take no less than 50g

That's alot, why do you believe so much?

because when you weight train you generally burn up alot of glyocgen )if you actually train hard lol) and you want to replace a nice chunk of it quickly to replenish the muscles plus the insulin spike it creates I do upto 100g

I have approx 30g Protein, 75g CHO Replace, 5g Creatine Mono in a shake.

Your post workout nutrition is not the place to be skint on calories and carbs etc. It is the meal that kickstarst your body into building a bigger and better muscle.

Another important point is to re-hydrate. Make sure you replace all the liquid you ahve sweated out. normally between 1L-15L of water PWO

[Chemo]

BCAA's intra followed by shake:

2 scoops of whey 50g Protein,

2 scoops of oats,

20-30g of glucose

5-10g creatine

in a half water half milk mix

Usually, I add and remove carbs depending on what day it is, Squat and Dead days being the highest and stuff like shoulders being the lowest.

why would you have oats as it is slow releasing? and wouldnt milk just slow down digestion?

is you have the protein, creatine and powerade or raro or whatever is the glucose still important?

[PeterDolan]

Just seems like overkill to me but if you aren't fat then okay

Then 30 mins later have 200g (raw weight) steak + 1C (raw weight) white rice or 4 slices wholemeal toast + generous amounts of jam

[Mrbig]

yeah wee bit of sugary type carbs is good pwo, if your puitting on bodyfat from it then cut it back.

but hey, for years i just had a double serve of protein powder in water at the gym pwo thern drove home had shower etc then ate dinner... this worked fine... no need to over think it.

[train hard]

a general rule is 2 grams of simple carbs to 1 gram of protein cool to see the other guys mix with powerade i do the same sometimes the people in my gym think it is funny

Read this as you didn't have anything til 1.5-2hrs later at first haha

I wouldn't do the powerade thing unless I'm in a pinch, would get so pricey

just use on insulin days, ur bcaa's prob workout more expensive than powerade on special fropm pak and save

Not when you buy them from the U.S.

All I'm saying though is that you can buy a kilo of dextrose for the price of a few powerades (at normal retail)

i would use 2 powerade every 8 days (4xhalf bottles)... thats is cheaper than scivation xtend from america i would think?
