Post Workout, High-Glycemic Carbs, good or bad?

[Jrich54338]

i agree selective hearing, how intense you train

[BabyBodybuilder]

That's what I was taught in my certification studies. Your at a low sugar level after a workout so if there was ever a time to have hi-glycemic foods, post workout would be the time.

Like Alan said. All that those studies and research was done on people working out after a night of fasting and without prober pre-workout shakes/meals. So, does this sound like you, my friend?

Go read some studies on the subject before chiming in again, please?

I'm not saying your opinion is wrong, but you obviously do not know the facts.

I think it's a lost cause, Richie. Some people just close their eyes to the truth, and only hear what they want to..

[Jrich54338]

that all i do all day is read, my profession will soon be in the health field. Im not saying your way is wrong either im just saying what works best for me, after I bust my ass balls to the wall in the gym, sweat pouring from my face, veins popping out my head, the hi gly works best for me, i take it within 5 minutes after my last rep, and I can tell you it feels amazing and i dont know its working i can actually feel it working

[djshortsleeve]

veins popping out my head,

Really?

[Jrich54338]

Chill people. It's not like theres one correct answer. There are multiple certifications and studies out there and multiple sources/types of research. I know mine personally is taken from American counsel on sports medicine. There are different factors involved such as an individuals particular diet, metobolic rate, and duration/type of exercise. So do whatever makes you feel better after a workout. I personally eat chilli afterwards for fiber/protein but I know people that need to eat hi-glycemics like bagels or sweet potato after an intense work out because they feel weak or light headed. Good luck to all.

lol, just in this thread or the other, someone was complaining about oats post workout as they had fiber which slows down digestion.

Oh yeah I saw that. I have fiber choice chewables at home I take somtimes. It feels good to be regular. Fiber keeps you feeling full longer so thats why I like the chili. If I went and ate a burger or something I'd be hungry again quick. That's just me though.

This is going nowhere fast. Trial and error. If it works stick with it (i did) if not, Keep it moving (Done.)

[Fleshka]

I gots a better idea!!11 Screw digestion!!11! We needs those proteins so damnz fast... we shulds inject amino acids rightz intos our bloodz streamz!!111 now dats hardcorz!11

ya man, screw proteins,

you only got one liver.

[The Solution]

bottom line is to this thread get a 2:1 carb to protein ratio post workout.. whatever works for u works for u ..

if u want to do chili, dextrose, bananas, oats whatever .. if it satisfies u and gives u gains stick with it

science is there to back up some of these anwsers, but if u want to keep doing what ur doing and it works for u then dont stop.. bottom line everyone is different we are not made of allt he same genes so what works for one may not work for another

got it good

[gountilfailure0]

if ur asking whats best post workout oats isnt the best one ... oats before yes but after not really i just have me whey and water and a few strawberries thats it

[Johnsmatrix]

Have one of these after a workout. We can all agree on this one.

Depending on what position you use. It might be overtraining

P.S. The question is. What was your reasoning for having that picture in the first place o.O
