Post workout meal (snack) shake, ? ? ? whole wheat bread? whole wheat bagel? whole wheat crackers, life cereal (contains sugar), or rice cakes ?

I was simply curious as to why Jen would recommend this. I have been reading, and it seems everyone does react differently to the post w/o insulin spike. I first read P-funk's answer, adn he said he could bulk leaner WITHOUT the spike. Then I went back over, and read what natural guy wrote. Like I said, everyone is different.

http://www.ironmagazineforums.com/sh...=insulin+spike (Is PWO Spike really necessary???)

He said that they also stimulate LPL (lipoprotein lipase) which is an enzyme that regulates the flow of lipids into fat cells. Lipoprotein lipase plays a vital role in fat storage.

PM- I dont go with the insulin spike either.
but if Sara chooses to do so then thats her choice. I dont see the need for it either and havent done high GI for a long time. Id personally stick with something lower.
