    I use waxy maize...it is THE SHIT. it fills you out like no other and keeps you full for a very long time with a bit of a "pump" effect. It is a high molecular weight complex carbohydrate, this means that instead of sitting in the gut, waiting to get digested, the heavy nature of the molecule causes it to get sucked right down into the small intestines for IMMEDIATE absorption. Eventhough it is a complex carb, it drastically spikes insluin (which is good PWO) due to its expedited absorption rate.

    Here is an article on it, it is written by Justin Harris...One of the TOP contest prep and offseason gurus in the game:

    http://www.muscular development.com/...t/view/67/54/\ (you have to back space btween the words "muscular" and "development" for the link to work...it wouldn't let me post the link if I didn't post that space there for some reason.

    One instance proving the "awesomeness" (lol) of this stuff is, I did some experimenting with it on my own and I used it once everyday (two scoops...80grams) for two weeks. My weight went up about 7 lbs and I felt full as shit all day long with great pumps in the gym. Then, after the two weeks, I dropped the waxy maize from my diet completely and replced that one meal with 80grams of oats, other than this, my diet stayed the EXACT same (always does).....I ended up dropping 5 lbs within two days. This, to me, is proof of how efficient this product is at being absorbed and pulling water into the muscle causing the muscle to "swell". I am a frim believer of cell volumization (drawing water, electrolytes, and nutrients into the muscle cells) in order to maximize growth and this stuff does just that.

    It comes in powder form...it has the physical properties of baby powder...so it is kinda messy.

    Totally agree, this is probably the only supp I have used in the last year that I was actually impressed with. I will use it all the time now unless on slin.
