Whats up guys Iwas told I need dextrose right after my workouts .What is it and I was told to take it becouse of the carbs it has.Now if I cant get it for awhile could I get the carbs from say a apple or some other until I get the dextrose?Peace CDOG
Suger
So would a couple of apples do the same thing.PeaceCDOG
Not really, apples have a much lower GI value, therefor you wouldn't get as big of an insulin spike post workout with apples. And that is what you are looking for.

Thanks.So if I dont have any dextrose what could I use until I got some?
What would be high in GI value?
I am maybe wrong but, banana have high glycemic index..
Thanks AGURO anybodyelse?Whats the highest GI fruit out there?
Dextrose is glucose sugar... for us the purpose of dextrose is a speedy way to get glucose into our body and involved in ATP regeneration. The best times for this is after morning cardio and after workout.
Becuase you have used your gyocgen stores in your muscles for energy after workout you want to give you body a source of fuel until you get food digested. By intaking dextrose after either training sessions you will have given your body a temporary fuel to continue moving and operating until you can feed. best mix would by a dextrose pro-tein blend zero carb immediatly after then 30min to 1hr get your carbs & pro-tein in your gut... the pro-tein/dextrose blend will insure fuel for muscle operation and muscle food so to prevent any catabolic effect..
Dextrose is produced by the enzyme conversion of corn starch and then refined by ion-exchange demineralization.
mmaximus25,
bro, you know your shit. that is exactly what milos sarcev does. he says he wouldn't workout without doing it casue it makes perfect sense.
Most of those pros have had help from nutritionist's that are geared towards AAS supp. Or their well versed bros... Didn't Ronnie graduate magna cum luade?(I probably spelt that wrong)Quote:

Anyway, shit with ok genes & science... well... we could all morph...
Sooner or later though, you will have to get into physiology & nutrition or kid nap a Vet nutritionist that is dedicated to the so called dark side.
Me...and most likely you and a whole lotta bros, hell we’re all machines that have the urning to run better than our original design, like cars and each year you have a chance at being better…a whole new production line...
If you know any vet nutritionist though… drop a line. lol
Thx for the hit bro... Nutrition is more of my strength but I am seeing the need to engulf myself into physiology to further progress... and us bros here need to help each other to continue to succeed in each of our goals
Catch ya on tha flip side
BTW, highest GI fruits are watermelon (72) cantaloup (65) Raisins (64) Pineapple (59) a banana is (51)

Thanks Mmaximus and painintheazz Iam going to get the dextrose however geting crap online takes a little while so I think 'Ill hit the bananas until I get my dextrose.You guys amaze me your almost like freakin doctors.PeaceCDOG
When I don't have dextrose I also use honey.
Honey seems to be a crowd favorite, I bought dextrose off a website 5lbs and it got there in 4 days, just order it.
hey chin....I got dextrose, just saying that when I don't I use honey. And if your post wasn't directed at me......just pretend like I'm not here...lol
I just heard of useing sweetarts to bro's.But ya Iam going to order the dextrose online anyway.PeaceCDOG
I don't fuck with big texas dudes man. LOL . I was just saying that he can use honey from what most of the people on the board say.

Just playin' witcha' bro.;)
How much honey would you use....tsp 2 tsp 3 tsp?
Iam not sure about honey I ended up geting dextrose .But regardless honey or dextrose you need about 85carbs and 50grams of protein right after your workout.So for me a take a 3/4 cup of dextrose mixed with my protein if you are useing honey you might want to see how many carbs per tsp and as long as you are geting around 85 carbs you should be ok.Peace CDOG
Does anyone know if you can get flavored dextrose? I was looking at protein factory and they have dextrose. If you can buy flavored dextrose that would be super cool. Thanks.
I have never seen it flavored, but I guess you could add some sugar free crystal light (or any other non-cal drink mix) and make your own flavors and not screw up the macros of the dex. You will be adding some acid to it so if you are doing CDK diet that could mess you up.Quote:

Damn Pain........you and that Crystal light.....:lol:

CDOG....no need to order it online. Just drop into your local home brewing store. They usually sell it in 5lb bags (2.2kg) for $2.00 ($3.00 cdn). 2 scoops of whey + 1 scoop of dextrose immediately after traiining and youi are good to go.
U can also grab dextrose from any Pharmacy..... (Its known as diabetic sugar) or U can get your local safe way to order it for U
I got some at my local herb store cheap to!
do u guys mix dextrose with anything to get rid of the taste? i tried it with whey but its seriously some of the nastiest shit i ever had
I got a good technic, it called : Pince ton nez pis bois!
You just stop breathing and gulp it down.. heh.. Make me remember that damn cell tech.. Just mix it with a very small qty of water and swallow.. heh..
