How were your energy levels when using oats/protein powder, instead of dextrose/protein powder post workout?

my energy levels felt the same to be honest with you. If I had a really intense or longer workout I would add a little box of raisons in the oatmeal to add some sugars.

I've been in contact with a PT that posts over at Chad Nicholl's board. He's 234lbs and roughly 6% bodyfat, natural. He uses 3 scoops of Protein Powder and 3/4 cup of white corn grits post workout. I might give it a try after years of using simple sugar/whey protein post workout. This is the first time I'm REALLY serious about dieting.

If you have a fast metabolism ad you are not very carb sensitive than you most likely can continue to use a simple sugar such as dextrose for post workout. I am carb sensitive and if im not careful with them I put on fat real easy. I using keep the dextrose post workout until about the last 8 weeks of cutting, thats when I drop the dextrose and start using oats and if needed, some raisons.

Although you could pull up the pants an inch or two.

Really! Pull yer drawers up! Depends on what your weight is. A 200# man with 10# of fat is 5% while a 100# woman with the same pounds of fat on her boody is 10%. I would guess you 6-7% just offf the pic. fuck it, the mirror is what matters, And you look good.

I have always went by the mirror, but when that hand held tester told me 15% I nearly smashed it on the floor, I wanted to see it say about 6-7%. In this pic I was between 200 and 201lbs.

Re: Here it is....

2 tbsp natty PB (no carbs)

Are you using a special carbless kind of natural pb or are you just not adding any additional carbs to the meal?

I dont add any additional carbs to the meal, I use the natty PB to get extra calories in since it is hard to keep calories up when cutting most of the carbs out, and I also use it to add some good fat to my diet.
