    Corn while cutting?

    Well i've been cutting for a few weeks now and i love corn. I usually make it on the bbq with my chicken....Do i need to cut it out of my diet. or can i still have it in the afternoon?

    well considering a lot of people use dextrose for cutting, which is a corn derived sugar, i would imagine that Post workout and post post workout meals could contain corn and you could still drop body fat.

    Corn might be ok for a pro/carb meal - assuming you don't slather it in butter. But I don't think it's a good choice for PWO. It's around 55 on the glycemic scale, while dextrose is over 100. You want a fast acting carb for PWO.

    Big Broker, some guys live by the high GI carbs PWO, but they aren't necessary at all, any clean carb will do. if you love corn, by all means bro corn it up!

    I love corn ... One cob of corn weighs about 116grams-which means it provides 145 calories.It is also rich in proteins and carbohydrates.
