very informative bonehead..

if you got nothing good to post, keep that shit to yourself.

Chill lean... check it out... if it were me, and I was cutting, I would not use dextrose post cardio. Your metabolism will remain high well after completing your cardio session and I would take advantage of it.

However, if you looking to gain mass and doing cardio for the sheer cardiovascular/healthy benefit, I don't see any reason dextrose would hurt anything.

I take in dex post-workout all the time, both cutting and bulking.

you need carbs first in order to prepare the muscles to absorb protein. Otherwise you just get fat.

insulin spike --> glucose uptake into adipose (fat) tissue. if you gotta take such a high-GI carb, which doesn't really make sense (bulking or not), then at least take some ALA with it.

Post workout not post cardio would seem best. Do cardio in the am. Workout in the evening and it right after workout.

I take it post-workout and post-cardio, but I don't take in near as much post-cardio because I don't feel my muscles need the replenishment the same way they would post workout.
