Anyone use this POST WORKOUT????

[THeMaCHinE]

If I absolutely need something and don't have my regular post workout shake then I might have one -- I'm just as likely to stop and buy a quart of chocolate milk too.

Based on studies done with olympic gymnasts, who are likely in a more catabolic state than bbers, proper post workout nutrition is going to come in at about .8 gr carb/kg + .4 gr protein/kg. For a 220-lb individual, this equates to 80 gr/carbs, 40 protein. I use a 35% CFM whey isolate/65% dextrose blend or a 20% CFM + 20% rice protein/60% dextrose blend post workout. These formulations provide the appropriate carb/protein ratio, are fast acting and have virtually no fat.

Another thing, FDA requires all RTDs to be boiled, so it completely denatures protein content. You get a bare-bones protein supp with any RTD.

Too much sugar, too many carbs, crappy all around.

Hmmm, intresting. I think it would be fine depending on your weight. If you were 260+ it might be ok.

I for one stick with 40grams protien, about 120carbs from Dextrose, 10 grams creatine, 300mg r-ala. Kicks ass for me.

When I can afford it I will get an Ultra fuel at the gym and then 15 to 20 min. latter an EAS whey shake with 40 grams of protien.

Good point here.
