it is usually mixed with your pwo protien shake. The ratio is 2:1. Example: 60g sugar from dextrsose, 30g Protein. Only use it post workout though, any other time you might just as well grab some junk food instead.

You don't necessarily need both Dex and Malto....

Many (including myself) do quite well with just Dextrose...

As said above, a 2:1 ratio of Dex : Whey protein.... Althought I would suggest in the area of 40-45g whey, 80-90g dextrose...

Consume the shake within 15mins or so PWO...

You can buy Dextrose @ bulk foods stores, breweries, or from www.kentnutrition.com

i know we aren't in the diet forum, but what amount of dextrose would you take during a cutting phase?

We are in the diet forum, and the amount of dextrose one uses in a pwo offering is entirely dependent upon what the dietary protocol is.

hey guys, i went over to proteinfactor.com and did a custom hydro 520 (35%) 35% dextro 30% malto. they only do intervals of 5s so anyway, that comes out to 29g protein and 61g carbs. im at 170 right now, so i did .4*bodyweight (170*.4=31)... thats how i got my formula. my only question is, should i be drinking this PWO and thats all, or during my workout should i drink this shake, and then have 30grams of whey isolate as well? please help diet gurus (caugh swole cat cough).

oh yeah, 170, 5'10, 18yearsold, still need BF % but dont really know how to do it yet.

ps- should i also be getting flax substituting anywhere in this shake as well? i know its dumb because of slin spike, but i keep hearing about flax with shakes..

Does 1 gram of Dextrose equal 1 gram carb?
