dex and maltodex or dex?

i've heard to have both dex/maltodex with pwo shake. However, I also have heard a lot of people here just use dex 2:1 with protein. I have been doing 52g pro/roughly 100 dex. Keep doing this or use maltodex too? Thanks guys in advance.

You're bulking I assume? There have been a few articles posted here about the 50:50 mix CLICK ME, but I prefer pure dex myself..........

hey guys, quick question bout dex, how many teaspoons do u drop in ur shake?

i do a half a cup and 2.5 tsp. because the serving size was 1.25 tsp. so I had to figure off of that.

1/2 cup of Dextrose = 75g carbs

Therefore, 3/5ths of a cup... I know that is a uncommon measurement, but, that is how much it is in cups.

my dex is 1.25 tsp = 4g carbs. thats how I figured it. So 1/2 cup would be about 96g dex.
