PWO shake question

[viciousness]

first of all i'm 6'1 263 19% bf tryin to cut to like 12 15% so I wanted to know if this was a good idea or somthing for someone starting skinnier then me

my boy says that ontop of my pwo shake ( 2 scoops - whey 240 cals 48 gr protein 6 gr carbs) I should be taking in atleast 40 grams carbs in total. I've been using a scoop of waxy maize thats 120 calories and 39 grams of carbs in the shake aswell. is this extra 39 grams of carbs gonna just help me bloat/gain weight rather then maintain muscle and burn fat? i know all about crucial glycogen replenishing etc but whatd be the best but for someone in my position

figured theres no better place to ask then here

lemme know whasssssuppppppppppppppp

There is no bloat with WM. It is used to shuttle nutrients directly to the muscle and replenish glycogen stores. I still take WM even when I am on a keto diet where I am really low carb. That is how important it is imo. In those circumstances I will have a few carbs in the morning and then in my PWO and that is it. Your overall diet will dictate your fat loss/gain not this one meal.

thank god someone awnsered before i hit the gym, guardian your the man g! i noticed theres no bloat with the waxy but i know carbs tend to make me hold a bit more water in my opinion ( could be all mental) but even if i have my oats in the morning etc which is still only like 27 carbs i work out 3 hours after that meal so im assuming its chill to have the waxymaize without any guilt of over carbing? peace bro's hopefully this helps clarify some for other cats too not only myself

u will be fine. no worries about over carbing.

carbs do make u hold extra water weight. it takes 300-400ml to store 100g of carbs

You can get it online. Or at your local Vitamin World store its not expensive at all. I think I got a 5lb jug for 35 bucks at Vitamin World.

So you guys like WM? I grind up like 50 carbs worth of whole oats in a coffee grinder and throw those bad johnnies into my whey shake with dextrose...comes out to like 45 g protein, 80 - 90ish of carbs.

How does oats+dex compare to WM for overall health and PWO shakes?
