Post Supreme

I looked at the mendosa list and on the white bread scale there were only 5 things above 100...like 2-3 of them being pills..so what should i do? Can i just down like 3 tablespoons of sugar or somethin or what?edit....there is two different scales..which one do i follow for the GI..the left one or right? Also approx how many simply carbs should i eat after a workout? my weight is about 170lbs is that makes any difference

I'm not supreme but I have read alot on this subject, I started using 1/2 cup of dextrose with my protein and creatine post workout,dextrose is the best post workout carb to take, you could also take maltodextrin but I think dextrose is best.I myself am 172 lbs. and this 1/2 cup is a good amount to take 85g dextrose, 40g protein and 5g creatine mixed with water.

*** I would suggest experimentating.
Start with a 3:1 ratio of carbs to protein.
I usually use around 120-150 grms of carbs post workout with around 60-100 grms of protein. It varies.

Well first off Maki, I need to find out what to eat before how much...I only eat about 40 grams after a workout, and like 50-70..sometimes about 100 because of this stupid dextrose thing Now i dont know what to eat!

150 g post workout!!! Holy shit, that's like my whole daily limit

I wanted to get my question in before TSB answered

I keep hearing that rice cakes are high GI. But if they're made w/ brown rice (and that's the only ingredient), and brown rice is a moderate GI, what the hell makes rice cakes high GI ??

I personally use the white bread scale (i think that's the right side...it'll be higher).

Table sugar sucks cuz it's half fructose and half sucrose, it's low GI but it ain't great for replenishing muscle gylcogen.

Just use something high, a bagel, spegetti, maltodextrin (i.e. weight gainer, great for post workout)...if it's high GI and it isn't fruit or dairy you're good. Maltodextrin is a bit better than dextrose but either are great.

For you a good post workout meal would be 80g of carbs along with 40g of protein (1g carbs per kg and half that amount of protein).

About the rice cakes they are higher GI because when they are processed almost all of the fiber is taken out, raising the GI.

Depends on the kind of bagels you eat.

No, it doesn't HAVE to be over 100...99 would suffice, just keep it up there
