Preferably I would like Oats. But you could try the pita for a bit and see how it affects you.
Hey people...
Now for my post workout i take 30 grams of protein from Oryx Protein....
I need 30-40 grams of carbohydrates to take together ( my meal is 1-1.5 hours afterwards)...
I dont take simple sugars post workout (Sometimes i used apple but higher fructose than glucose) . Please I dont need your opinion on simple vs complex carbs post workout.
I know the facts, i know the studies , i experiment.
We are against to most of the refined blahblah breads. So , could a pita (whole wheat ) bread consisting of 35-40 carbs used as Medium-High GI together with the protein postworkout? I have tried using Quick Oats (a bit faster gi from normal) but this can only be done when I am able to get home. At times im at University I would like something easier to carry. Slices of sweet potato are also possible.
Give me your ideas....

dump the oats in the shaker with the protein.. then mix with water after. That way you dont have to go home.. i always eat mine raw

annnndd that reply was horrible. I meant the oats are good with a blender, whey, and water, and PreMier's idea is great.
You know ..for some strange reason whenever I eat too many oats during the day i feel dehydrated despite all the water i drink... I even have some friends with the same problem..
Also , how about a bowl of (40 grams of carbs) of cooked brown rice (eaten with spoon) while drinking my shake? It sits better in the stomatch and can easily eat a meal an hour afterwards.... easy to carry also...

that would be fine. i think it would be about 1 1/2 cup cooked brown rice.. or 1 cup cooked/msahed sweet potato
