You friend is wrong. The best way to stimulate growth and recovery is to have a good post-workout shake right after you've finished lifting. This shake should include both carbs and protein. There is no sense in waiting and hour afterwards to take in the protein.

(postworkout
40-50 grams protein
60-90 grams carbs
5-10 grams creatine would be good too.

make your own bro.

a lot of people are going to chine in with protein factory but their shit is overpriced and unreliable.

go to supplementdirect.com and order whey protein concentrate and dextrose powder in bulk.

combine in the amounts shown above (but take into account that WPC is 80% protein) and put in powdered form in a sprts bottle. I add 1 tbsp of malted milk for flavor.

then when you're done with your w/o add water to the bottle, shake it up, and gulp it down.

voila instant growth!

are the carbs coming from just the dextrose?

or is there some in your protein powder?

liquid carbs: you can try dextrose + malto with water

there is a negligible amount of slow carbs in the powder. what you are looking for post w/o is FAST carbs that will spike your insulin. Dextrose is not only cheap it is the best sugar because it fills your muscle glycogen and not just your liver glycogen.

Fructose is an example of a sugar that is not as good (tho it will do in a pinch) because it just goes to your liver.

I've searched a few online store and came up with 0 results for Dextrose. Will some recommend me a site to use? Thanks and thanks for all the inputs also.
