    Protein powder with correct ratio for PWO

    Hello All!!!!!!!!

    For PWO shake meal...
    So is there a brand of protein powder out there with this 2:1 ratio carb/protein already mixed in? ex. 80g dextrose/40g whey. Or do I ask the healthfood store clerk for dextrose and mix it in myself?

    I also use about a 2:1, dex:whey ratio, but my gram numbers are like this:

    about 24g of whey protein isolate
    about 56g of dex

    I use my whey protein "scooper" to measure my dex/whey intake. Each scoop yields 28 g of powder (24 g of whey). And since dex has twice the weight of whey, I also just use only one scoop (56g of dex).

    Am I correct in doing this?

    Someone said two scoops of Whey and use a 1/3 of a cup dex...But I don't how much protein was yielded per scoop...My whey yeilds 22g of protein per 28g scoop...I guess the only way to get it exact is to buy a freaking scale...Anyone know how important it is to get an EXACT 2:1 ratio?
