Post Workout Shake??

[Douglas7777]

I am currently cutting right now, and need some opinions on PWO shakes.

I'm using Protoplex right now
Calories: 300
Protein: 43g
Carbs: 27g
Fat: 2.5g (.5 Sat. fat)

I'm not really looking for more protein neccesarily. Just a good quality powder. You thoughts?

labrada lean body shakes always worked the best for me 340cals 45pro 7fat 30carb they also have lean body with low carb that has only 12g of carbs!!

Don't trust your labels. There's no regulation on the contents of supplements so your protoplex shake could be nothing more than Nesquick with a bullshit label. I trust Beverly International products though cuz I've known the owner for almost 20 yrs.

What is your opinions of "Muscle Milk" and "NitroTech"

Beverly International is the best. I also like truemass by the noxplode fellas.

make your own!

2 scoops whey protein
3-5g CEE
10g L-glutamine
1/2 cup maltodextrin
1/3 cup dextrose

totals 800 cals, 50g protein, 130g carbs

This is pretty good, but I'd scratch the malto and do 50 grams of dextrose, 35 grams of whey, and 10 grams of glutamine. You'll crash harder, but it will restore glycogen levels faster and give you a good insulin spike. Save the complex carbs for about an hour later with a full meal. Maltodextrin does have a pretty high GI though, so it wouldn't hurt much to throw it in with the dextrose.

800 cals? 130g carbs?
I'll keep that in mind when I'm bulking. That is 45% of my cals IN for the day.

perhaps the only time you and i will be on the same page

labrada products as of a couple of years ago(no body building supps for me for a couple of years) were the best in my opinion
he carried no cutting edge products. all his stuff was tried and true.
inexpensive and high quality.
lean body was a great meal replacement and probably still is.

And put it in water. You want to avoid fat after a workout because it slows absorption. Those of you with fat in your PW shakes have room for improvement.
