Throw away your protein powder/PWO shakes!

[Tatyana]

So Tat, you would say for a post workout shake if I use skim milk with my whey protein that I wouldn't need any carb like dextrose or waxy maze to stimulate an insulin spike?

Yes. Lactose is glucose and galactose and the combo of some of the insulinogenic amino acids and a simple carbohydrate elicits a greater insulin response than just a simple carb on its own.

Pardon me............. but WTF does this have to do with Steroids?
Thanks for the information.

I think we're supposed to mix the chocolate milk with primo or test to get the most out of it. that's what I got out of it anyways.

great way to give you the shits

I know we are talking most likely about skim milk, and maybe it is true. You don't need the extra protein because of the response. But milk in it's natural form has fat. Are we really making it a superior product by taking out what god "or evolution" put into it?

Of course I know we don't eat fat PWO. I don't believe in straight up cows milk for human consumption. But if I did, I would bet on whole milk being better for us than skim. I just believe that things like that and eggs are whole for a reason.

So if this is true, does adding in some extra whey help. Some people think that the goal of PWO is glycogen replenishment, and although that happens, the insulin response is what we want.

So, TAT, are you on-board with the chocolate milk PWO?

science calls bullshit.

its always funny when you read these cult of personality gurus with weird theories based on nothing -- like vince gironda and his eat 20 raw eggs a day or some shit

according to all recent studys, post workout you need fast digesting protein, fast absorbed carbs

that means bcaa, whey, hydrolized whey protein isolates

and

dextrose or waxy maize starch (or other hi molecular weight carb)

I get choco milk free at work, but it's 8gm of fat in the little pint so I stay away. God they are good though!!!!

 

[Mavafanculo]

to continue,

casein is a slow digesting protein - and the fat will further delay digestion. the opposite of what yu want PWO.

the milk sugars arent as quickly absorbed as far as I know as dextrose, and certainly not as fast as hi-molecular weight carbs. also see the fat issue.

the chocolate flavoring may also contain high fructose corn syrup which will do nothing for you PWO but make you fat.

so in the words of Joe Pesci, "everything that guy just said is bullshit"

So no more chocolate malts at Sonic post workout?
