Help with PWO Shake Please.

whey/dextrose PWO is ideal

since I now know milk isnt the best option, is there anything I can add to the dextrose/maltodextrin and whey shake besides water? Or anything i can add to it to make it taste better?

get a better tasting whey protein and it should taste really good - i use syntrax nectar - apple flavor - its great tasting

well, today I did 8 tablespoons dextrose, 2 scoops whey (vanilla flavoured isolate) and 2 cups water. This was the sickest shit ever. I wanted to puke. I suffered through it, but damn, with all that corn sugar, I felt kind of uneasy, I mean, it felt like I was drinking a bunch of sugar (which i guess I was). The tatse was awful, and when I added a bit of chocolate syrup to add some flavour, it was worse. Tihs was the sweetest, yet most disgusting, thing ever. Any way i can make it taste better? And are you guys sure all this sugar (dextrose) is acceptable, even if its PWO?
Thanks

oh...well I have a few 5lb prolab pro whey coming, a chocolate, a vanilla, and a strawberry.......hopefully those taste better than my current whey

what whey are you using now?
i thought the prolab stuff was awful when i tried it,
my suggestion:
first do you use creatine?
if so the transporters usually use dextrose, and then it flavored, so its not hard to get down
supplement direct used to make a 7lb tub for around $30, it was a cell-tech comparable

I am now using Biox Power Whey Isolate (its canadian I believe). Vanilla flavoured. I am off the creatine for a few weeks but I am going back on soon, its the Champion Nutrition Creatine Extreme.

good deal - i hope it works out for you, keep us posted - i know for myself that i didnt like using a vanilla or chocolate or anything after a while with the dextrose / malto mix - just wastn tasting good enough for that post workout shake so I switched over the nectar and its f'n great tasting, especially with the dex/malto, it doesnt even taste like your gulping down a protein shake more like a nice refreshing juice

I may end up checking that brand out when I finish the whey thats on the way
