homemade drink during workout

[Manu]

I am making a low carb (below 100 grs) diet, 80% of the carbs are post workout.

i am thinking of trying some homemade carb drink during the workouts... would dextrose do the trick?

Any ideas?


P.S. I am not sure what would be better, if a preworkout or some carbs during the train...i will try first the carbs during workout but what is your opinion?

Thanks

Heres what my pre, during and postworkout nutrition looked like when i was bulking and it worked very well for me. 1scoop was equal to 20 grams of protein(whey) and carbs(dextrose)

15-30 MINS. BEFORE workout- 1 scoop whey, 1scoop dextrose


During workout- Sipped one 1scoop whey and 1 scoop dextrose

Posr workout- 2scoops whey 3-4 scoops dextrose.

I had high eneergy and endurance w/ no crashes in blood sugar. Although, after awhile i got sick of sipping on a drink other than water during workout, so i dropped the one during and just added another scoop of dextrose to pre workout drink and still got great results.

Hope this helps.

Thank you Creatureofnight.


It seems this is discussed in the dextrose threat...
