It depends on your conditioning and metabolism. I curremtly do not take in any carbs postworkout. Beverly told me that over 25 grams with my postworkout shake could hinder fat-loss.

I take in no more than 25 carbs post-workout during contest phase and its in the form of a replacement drink. I do my heavy workouts in the mornings and carb deplete by 2pm

I think keeping as much muscle as possible is more important than drastically loosing fat so why drop the carbs post workout and risk muscle wasting by not repenlishing gycolgen stores.
