    Why wait 15 mins after my slin shot to drink shake

    Here's what i've read about using slin

    "injection + 5 minutes – drink shake with 10g glutamine / 10g creatine / 55g dextrose
    Injection + 15 minutes – drink shake with 80g of whey protein in water
    Injection + 60 – 75 minutes – eat a protein / carb meal with 40-50g of protein, 40-50g of carbs, NO FATS
    Avoid fats for 2-3 hours for Humalog IM, 3-4 hours for Humalog sub-q, 4-5 hours for Humulin-R "

    1-Why do I have to wait 5 mins to drink my dextose and 15 mins for the shake?
    2-Can't i put them all in one shake?
    3- Can't I take a full meal replacement like lean body instead of whey protien and can I drink it with juice ( or will that give me too many carbs)

    if you put glutamine and whey in the same shake they have to fight each other for absorption,there for wait till glutamine is absorpt.

    Thanks Rodge,
    What about the shake with whey protien and water, could I use a meal replacement shake and fruit juice?, anyone?

    If your using Humalog IM I wouldn't wait the 5 minutes. That's just cutting it to close for me. I drink my dex right after my injection.

    I also drink my dex immidietly post injection, but it doesn't matter if you wait 5 min or have your dex right away because humalog's onset time is at the 15 min mark meaning insulin starts becoming effective at around the 15 min mark after injection.

    I think that from doing more reading i'm able to answer my own question.
    I guess having a shake with a meal replacement and juice would give me too many carbs , especially after my dextrose, and there for risking fat gain.
