  • Insulin Question regarding carbs

    i will be starting 10iu of insulin shortly. i am using humalog, and will inject right after i am done training. i was planning on drinking a carbo force right after, with 40grams of whey protein. then follow that with a meal, probably chicken and yams 15 mins later. then about 2 hours later, another protein/carb meal i think this will be enough carb intake for it, but i wanted to double check. i have glucose tablets on hand. this sound right?

    Sounds about right. How many carbs in a Carbo Force? You may need more at first (to be safe and then reduce carbs as you go) Feel it out but start out on the safe side first (higer carbs)

      I would wait for about a half hour after your first protein/carb shake.
      There is 110 grams of carbs in a carbo blast.
      You should be fine. Just have a can of pop or some glucose tabs on hand just incase.

          Carbo force is ok to use, but there are better drinks out there, with faster absorving sugar. What you can do is buy a big bucket of Dextrose put 120g and mix it with sugar free kool aid and put 15g creatine and 10 grams of Glutamine in it and drink it after your shot. Also drink WPI after that for your protein.
