POST W/O meal on cycle

[KnockedOutFAST]

We all know you need fast acting carbs and protein after you work out, and IMO the best meal would be WaxyMaize and Whey. But what if the only thing you could get is soda? or candy? Do those carbs act the same at all and do the same thing as dextrose/maltodextrin/waxymaize? Or is that just a waste? I never drink soda, but just wondering if ANY kind of fast acting carb will work, or if it would have a benefit over not taking anything at all.

Mountain dew is a good PWO drink. Definitely better than not drinking anything at all.

Shot of Jack... and a beer back !

I down a 45 gram whey protein drink with very few carbs and sugar.
It's a secret formula called... Muscle Milk.

this is needto's shake for me

Ok I am just going to wing this one for you Eddy. So people can see how my mind works.

first I think if you add str8 up mt dew and try to blend it will get pretty messy. So this is what I think you should do.

take the mt dew and pore it into ice trays. freeze it and make ice cubes with it.

4-5 dew cubes
1/2 cup fat free sugar free vanilla frozen yogurt
1 serving protein powder.
blend in blender for 1 min or smooth

(you can add any kind of citrus fruit to this mix if you like. lemon lime,orange,grapfruit,and the like)
