I always eat oatmeal with my post workout shake. However, if you can get away with higher GI carbs and not experience any slowdowns in your cut, then I say go right ahead.
I know I use to use a higher GI carb after my wo's during my bulk but what would be ideal during my cut? I am currently taking in 30g's of carbs in meal 1(pre workout) and the same in meal 3(2nd post workout meal), so I was thinking of doing something like 60's of grits/white rice/rice cakes...something like that post workout with my shake.
Would this be OK?

I am not to sure how it would affect me...I will be using oats for now but was wondering if it would really kick the fat up that much. I am a pure endo so just looking at certain things makes me fat as hell!
Maybe once I get on a roll the next few weeks I'll experiment a little....thanks CP!

I'd stick with the oatmeal. High GI carbs PWO makes me looks soft.

how much oatmeal should be in the post workout shake for a 200 pounder on cut?
no ideaOriginally Posted by joey2005
i like to use the post workout insulin spike though
on a bulk I will use 60g dextrose, 60g maltodextrin, 50g whey isolate + bananna
on a cut I will use rougly 60 maltodextrin, 40g whey isolate + bananna
that seems to work aiight for me
hows a pwo with whey protein isolate 50g + a banana, is that good enough for an insulin spike to utilize the proteins?

I thought that the fructose in bananas has a low GI. I replaced them in my post workout shake with honey (which has a high GI).
Any thoughts?
So many cries of inequality stem from one of group
of people doing little or nothing and then bitching
about another group that actually does something
to improve their lives.
nah bannanas are high GI man, hence you can't eat them on a cut, they are pretty much glucose I don't think they have much fructose in them
1 bannana is certainly not enough for a post workout spike, you'd need a whole bunch (like 5 or 6), lol
your best off getting some glucose/dextrose or maltodextrin to mix in with your isolate shake, both of those are high GI (with dextrose being very slightly higher than maltodextrin)
peace
