Reply With QuoteA banana is high GI than an apple.
Fructose will replenish liver glycogen, not muscle glycogen.
You could cut your carbs at a different meal ????

Post w/o carbs
Would a couple pieces of fruit like an apple and a banana mixed with protein be as good as dextrose and protein? I am asking because I'm trying to cut down on carbs a bit for a little body fat loss......Mike

Keep the fat low, and fruits have fructose not dextrose, which is a better sugar for post workout recovery. Good luck

Definitely don't cut down the carbs in your post workouts, normal meal times is the time to do that
