    a lot of people live and die by dex. but the gains you saw were most likely due to your other meals throughout the day. you have a slight upper hand above others because you know what works best for you. use what you know works.

    I've used dextrose and maltodextrin PWO. I believe there's something to the whole insulin spike/shuttling nutrients into muscle thing. Plus I noticed dextrose tastes much better than regular sugar!

    Point is that you need carbs PWO. Whether you prefer Dex/Malto Waxy Maize, or Oats is debatable but again one must consume carbs.
