I workout at lunch and usually go to subway and get a salad. The salad consists of:
- ~75% Baby Spinach
- ~25% lettuce
- Cherry tomatoes
- Cucumbers
- Jalapenos
- Banana Peppers
- Shredded Carrots
- Black Oilves
- 1 Pack Fat Free Ranch
I drink a medium drink of something sugary like HC, Powerade, etc. I have always felt like this is good PWO nutrition. Am I way off?
Wheres the protein? This would be better PPWO with some chicken and a carb.. I would also stay away from sports drinks, unless its gatorade and you REALLY need it.
Oh dam, I forgot bro. It has ham, roast beef, and turkey

PWO = Post Workout right? Either way, that's what it is.
I usually eat a marathon bar (or something similar) with a protein shake about 30-45 minutes before working out. 27g Carb / 55g pro / 8g fat
Oh, failed to answer your question. It's definitely the most convienient, but I can do pretty much anything. I've always told myself it was a good meal for post workout, but I finally decided to ask someone that really knows. Little slow sometimes...

That's what I needed to know and that makes perfect sense. Thanks a lot bro.
One more thing, how much dex should I use? Here's the info for the powder I just found on bulk nutrition
Nutrition Info
Servings Per Container: 227
Amount Per Serving? % Daily Value ?
Calories 15?
Calories from fat 0?
Total fat 0 G?
Total Carbohydrate 4g
Sugars?? 4 G????? ?
Sodium?? 0 MG??? 0? ?
Protein?? 0 G????? ?
You really might want to consider just getting a shake with around 50g protein, 50g maltodextrin and 50g dextrose.
Right on, can you make any recomendations?Quote:

Thats it, right there, there it is. The ultimate pwo shake. ON has awsome tasting chocolate and with the added dex its like drinking a hershey bar. Protien bars are crap btw. I hate salad so IMO I never eat it, empty calories. PPWO I always have grilled chicken and rice or whead bread.Quote:

i advise getting the ON whey double rich choclate also, it tastes great even without the dex, adding dex is just like a bonus for PWO, and like these bro's say, after your whey/dex shake PWO, wait 60-90 minutes and take the ride to subway for the salad you mentioned above. sounds like a nice PPWO meal IMO.

bro seriously, if you stole that from another board it was my username. I cut that image down in photoshop myself. It was much bigger and I can guarantee no one else cut the image EXACTLY like I did. That's just wrong man...
maybe it is urs from another board, i'll try to find the handle i got it from. ur really getting bent out of shape over it? i'll take it off if it reaslly upsets you, but it is just a picture.

830 cals.......... Crap....... i hope you are bulking..
I do one that is 110 cals...........
and it's great before bed............
Yea, that's a label from Mass-Tech. I don't think I would drink it all at once. Maybe split it in half. Actually, based on what I have learned in this thread, I don't think I will be buying it at all.Quote:

Thanks bro, not trying to come off harshly or anything. I do get a lot of complements on it and it took a good bit of time to trim it down to the required size and still keep the affect. I actually have a much hotter one of the same girl, but some mod made me drop it.Quote:

No hard feelings at all bro and thanks for working it out. No steps, just a chair and she is badazz. I had the obvious parts of this one as my avatar up until about a week ago. Check it...
