post workouts supplements

nastynate Posts: 2 Joined: 2002/10/10	2002/10/16, 12:25 AM hi there, I was just wondering can I possibly train to gain mass and size without spending millions of Euros each month on supplements. And is anyone knows a good recipe for post workouts shake ? Warmest regards

As far as the post workout shake, I optimize. I take 40g of whey, 80g of maltodextrin and 10g of glutamine all in water. The whey protein is fast digesting and the maltodextrin is very high glycemic triggering the anabolic insulin spike and replacing much needed energy to slow down catabolism. The glutamine is just a bonus. I mix it only in water so as not to dilute the speed burn of the carbs or slow the digestion of the protein.
