ok thanks! as I was thinking. So the only time you ever really gona have hi gi carb is in the post wo shake.

Fructose would refill glycogen stores in the liver first, so that would probably not be my first choice in carbs. Dextrose can be found in grapejuice and in honey, but I would not buy that from concintrate as this is mostly high fructose corn sweatener. I would add some protein in that as it helps in spiking. So, grapejuice, protein and creatine would be just fine.

cheers para, i have recently tried it and its a bugger mixing two drinks seperately and its loads easier mixing one!!!!

for later read

I have a question on PWO carbs. I see the not eon consuming dextrose and maltodextrin but where are these found practically? Would fructose work also? 500ml of fruit juice woudl supply by 0.8grms per kilo. This would be easier to find and consume for me.

gd post!
