Preworkout:
1 scoop protein
.5 cup maltodextrin

Postworkout:
2 scoops protein
1 cup malto

[EdgarMex]

1 scoop of whey
1/2 scoop of dextrose
1 teaspoon of creatine

[NateWheeler]

Pre-workout:

1 small meal consisting of mainly carbs and protein (for example; chicken and rice OR pasta and tuna)
Sometimes I drink a glass of juice with this


Post-Workout:

2 scoops of protein (24 grams per scoop)
1 cup of instant SKIM milk powder (24 grams protein)

^^^ so that right there is 72 grams of protein, and to get my insulin levels up I drink a 20 ounce bottle of gatorade (get insulin levels up so the protein you just ate/drank goes directly to rebuilding muscle tissue)

***1 hour later***
1 small meal consisting of mainly carbs and protein

I would avoid milk post-workout, the milk will slow the digestion of the whey.

[NateWheeler]

What is milk causes that? do you know? Im not saying I dont believe you, I would just like to know how you know that

I only take it for the protein because its a cheap way to get more protein other than protein powder

[Jasonl]

Milk has casein protein in it, a slower digesting protein. One of the key benefits to whey is its rapid digestion, something good post-workout, helps get your muscles recovering after a tough workout.

[NateWheeler]

ok, i'll have to cut that outta my post workout. Thanks a lot for the info!

Is maltodextrin the same thing or related to dextrose ?? I have 4 pounds of dextrose right now ....

malto and maltodextrin are refering to the same ingredient ... right ?

Dextrose is a bit higher on the GI index than malto but malto is pretty similar.

Yeah, malto is just lazy for maltodextrin. :)

[bpd]

1 frozen banana (gets rid of need for ice or ice cream)
2 cups milk
2 scoops protein powder *edit: chocolate flavored
2 tbsp natty pb
blend until smooth (add water if not runny enough)

sometimes i add some oatmeal to give it some texture...

[NateWheeler]

sounds delicious, i'll have to give it a try..

[Stabber]

4oz of 1% milk, 4 oz of water, one teaspoon of natty PB. Chocoloate flavored whey mmmmmmmm :D
