Doesn't really make much of a difference. High GI is not necessary nor is insulin spiking. Only a modest elevation of insulin is needed to shut off the catabolic switch and with a properly timed and profiled pre-workout meal there will be previous meal overlap.

Unless you're training fasted or are doing multiple strenuous sessions per day, downing high GI carbs for the sake of glycogen repletion isn't necessary either.

But I'll add that the sooner glycogen is refilled from faster digesting sugars, the sooner AMPk is downregulated, and that is not necessarily optimal if you're trying to eek out every last bit fat oxidation from your training.
