PWO: CHO/Protein Ratio

**Hypertrophy** · 06-28-2004, 01:34 PM

Couldn't find the thread, but I read the other day where people were asking where did the whole 40g protein/80 carbs come from and if it is dependent on bodysize. Did a little research. Nutrition books say this

PWO:

1.5g/kg CHO (glucose/dextrose/maltodextrin)
0.5g/kg Protein

I am not sure either, you would think it would vary on bodyweight or other factors. That ratio you have found is very close, a 1 to 1.5 ratio. currently I was using 40g pro and 80g carb, with that formula I would be at 50g protein and 156g carbs. Hmmm...what book was that in, I am curious.

Peace

Yeah, it is in Power Eating 2nd edition.
That glucose was a typo. It says sucrose instead.

cool. .might have to check that out

You probably know more than the book. It doesn't agree with the opinions of this board. THe diets are all mixing fats and carbs. . . Don't waste your money, that ratio was the only decent information that i found.
