    Post workout carb

    Wow, it's been a while since I posted here... Anyway, I've run out of dextrose and been thinking about trying something else. My friend recommended having creamed rice in a can. Would that create the same insulin spike as the dextrose and is it as fast absorbing? Any thoughts?

    Carb Blockers

    Who has, who does, who doesn't, who wont? I've got a mate who is a personal trainer, he rates them so highly. I have always been of the opinion that carbs are too important to block anyway, your better of just showing a bit of discipline in you eating and training habits.
