Best Post Workout Carbs....

[Prizz]

There has been alot of talk about how important it is to have Dextrose or Maldextrose post workout..... Reasons are obvious for high glycemic carbs post workout..... I'm wondering what you guys use post workout? Do you actually buy Dextrose powder for post workout drinks, or do you just drink like Applejuice, or Cranberry juice and consider it just as good? I guess I'm wondering what is the best type of juice to use postworkout? I usually use Gatorade for my postworkout carbs, but I'm wondering what others use? Thanks....

I put 1 scoop ultrafuel + 1 scoop whey in a drink and take it with me. 100g of dex/malto/complex carbs and 25g ON Whey. I hear Grape Juice is the highest GI of all the juices.

The only thing is grapejuice is useless. Fruit juices = fructose and fructose cannot be converted to glucose and thus cannot replinish glycogen.

Ok, I've heard that before...... Then what type of juice is good? I really don't wanna start buying Dextrose just for post workout drinks..... I think I heard Cranberry juice is good before.... Anyone else?

Before working out is fine. Just go out and buy a big container of powdered gatorade. Its really cheap dextrose/sugar and it tastes great. You get like 100 scoops (at 35 carbs a scoop) for like $6.50.

I use this to, I mix it with vanilla pro and a bannana and it tastes like an orange julius.

They sell it in every grocery store I have ever been too.

is the gatorade powder as good as taking the dex/malto?
