If you choose to go low GI starchy carb (which I do) just keep 200g chicken and 200g sweet potatoe in your gym bag and eat in when you get to your car. I am not saying you should not eat bananas at all. I am saying whether you are a high or low GI post workout believer there are far better choices.
How about a mix. Get that potassium and a high GI carb Hell during the bulking season I liked a G2 gatorade with some waxy maize. I've done sweet potatoes, oats, rice cakes, bananas, waxy, maldo, white bread and it just seems the high GI carbs fill me out faster and keep me fuller longer but that doesn't mean my gains are any better, its just a cosmetic thing I guess and I'm also am hungrier sooner which with time constraints for things like work and school I gotta get that PPWO meal as soon as possible


Just like cardio probably be one of those things that'll be debated to no end.
