dextrose - UK-Muscle Body Building Community

BIG-UNC · 03-05-2006, 07:10 AM

just got some of this to add to my pwo shake

if im putting 2 scoops of protien (2 servings=44g) how many grams of dextrose do i need to add?

also read that the best time to drink this is as soon as i put the weight down on the last set (big how to grow) is this still the best time for this?

also is there anything else i could add to aid the recovery?

doing pct at the mo so could this be done first thing in the morning for more carbs?

cheers

PWO shakes should be taken as soon as you finish training, but some say you have about a 45min window to take it after training, so i shower go home then take mine! (within 25 to 30 mins after training

) so about 60 to 70 grams post work out i would say, which is about 2 scoops

i wouldn't use it, always use complex carbs, preferably low GI carbs like oats! you can get grounded oats from Bulkpowders dude! mix that with a bananna, and ur done!

Dont you think adding dextrose to your shakes makes them taste horrible.I'm used to the shakes on there own but when i add dextrose its too sickly.Are oats that you buy in asda ok. I think you get a 1kg bag for 48p then just grind up in blender and add to shake.

There fine m8, I use them all the time... When bulking I have up to 5 cups of ground up oats a day so these work out a very cheap and convenient way to bump up my cals...
