PWO while on lower carbs....and durning workouts

How come not a Gatorade or something along those lines?

I like coke better is all. It seems to get me going better too.

After not having carbs for awhile, the sugar in the pop I get going pretty good.

I would put it in the diet forum, but no one pays attention to it lol

yes we do, and personally i don't like using processed liquid sugar, i would use fruit or even better, complex carb before workout, simple sugar during, complex carb after

That's what I use to do also, I use to mix a drink for work out and PWO.

I do the same now, but my carbs are pretty low right now.

I do a can of coke while working out because the liquid sugar is just so simple, it gets in your blood stream fast, instant glycogen basicly. From what I understand it takes under 3 minutes for your body to convert this to energy.

It's 39 grams of sugar, so about 160 calories which I burn in about 20 minutes of lifting if my heart rate stays around 140.

After, I eat only about 30grams of complex carbs and 66 grams of protein.

Then for my last meal, broccoli is my only carb source.

Its simple sugar but its highly process high fructose corn syrup. Google the health risks of drinking it. In mexico they make coke with real sugar instead of corn syrup and it tastes so much better. You would be way better off drinking gatorade
