    Why are your carbs so low ? Personnaly after workout it's a banana, cup of milk, 2 scoops of whey, and a tbsp of peanut butter.
    Knowledge is power.

          Wow man, are you serious? Drop the milk, it slows down digestion, drop the banana, its fructose which does nothing for refilling muscle glycogen, and drop the peanut butter, it contains fat which slows digestion and you really do not want it post workout.

          Have your whey in water with some dextrose/malto. or oatmeal.

            I thought your position on Post workout meals were low GI carbs? Why are you suggesting dextrose/Malto? I recall you tried to argue that high GI carbs should NOT be taken post workout. Now you are suggesting it. Did you change your mind? Or did you finally realize high GI carbs are the way to go post workout?

              Calm down killer.... Mine are indeed low GI, hence why I mentioned oatmeal. I take care of pre-workout nutrition, so I can afford to go with a lower GI, such as oatmeal. A lot of people dont, so malto./dextrose is probably more ideal for them.

              No need to be a smartass, you're not quite at that level yet.

                    YellowJacket,
                    I'm not sure if you have before or not but do you mind posting exactly what you take pre and post workout?

                      Thats what I was wondering too.... Being on a keto diet, and limiting carbs as much as possible--whats the best thing to take post-workout? I have been taking 42g protein in water... What is good when you are doing low carb?

                          I wish to gain weight, so after an intense workout (in which I'm drinking mineral water mixed with glutamine) I grab a big protein shake made with 1% milk and a banana thrown in. The protein powder itself has about 80 cals per scoop, so that's 160 calories plus the milk, plus the banana.

                          After about 10 minutes I eat a big sweet potato and a fairly small steak done pretty rare.

                          I've gained 6.5 lbs in 9 days on dbol. My strength is great, sex drive great... very happy indeed. Just started the sust yesterday. Will shoot for 500mg/wk.
                          I know nothing about any of this insanity... it's just a fun game to me.

                            Sure brother.....


                            Preworkout, I generally have 15oz of water with cooked oats (about 1/3 up), 1 scoop of vanilla whey and 1 scoop of vitamin c powder..

                            Post workout I have 1/3 cup cooked oats, 2 scoops whey in 15oz water.


                            Been doing this for right around 5 months now and loving it, I generally try to 'clean' bulk, Im pretty carb sensitive these days, so Ive gone the route of low GI carbs pre and post workout.

                              damn bro, that's only a total of 2/3 cup oats around your workout, or about 36g (about 4g of which is fiber) of carbs! Do you recover enough from this?
