Your PWO shake
Do you
a) drink dextrose + whey (2:1 ratio) in water
b) not consume carbs until maybe an hour after workout
i ahve come across two schools of thought on this one
The first one a) is to spike insulin and since insulin is so anabolic most of the carbs get used in building muscle. (best explained by the insulin profile on this website)
But on the other hand i have met people who are experienced biochemists who have years of training experience consuming BCAAs and protein (something to that effect) since the insulin spike created by consuming simpel carbs after workout suppresses natural GH levels. Low GH levels = less repair.
What are your thoughts on this? Do the different approaches cater to different needs? The biochemist who follows the latter approach trains for strength only.
