How much dextrose in my PWO shake? - UK-Muscle Body Building Community

squat_this · 02-08-2006, 04:10 PM

I've used a weight-gainer (shout out to USN Muscle Fuel Mass) for a while now, but have decided to convert back to simple whey protein for my shakes. I was wondering how much dextrose should i put into my PWO shake? I will be using 2 scoops of whey.

I am also getting some Glutamine and some BCAA's.
I am planning on taking 5g of BCAA's before working out and 5g in my PWO shake. Is this correct?
When should I take my glutamine? 5g in the morning (i also have a shake when i wake up) and 5g after training, or 5g pre- and 5g post- training?
:confused:
