Maximize Muscle Recovery with Dextrose Post-Workout

Dextrose Post-Workout. To truly maximize muscle recovery and growth, your best bet is to consume fast carbs along with protein immediately after workouts.
Dieting 101 ► www.jimstoppan...
To Carb or Not To Carb? ► www.jimstoppan...
Consuming pure glucose after a workout means that the body doesn't need to digest it and it can be absorbed into the bloodstream almost as quickly as it is ingested. This gets a dose of glucose to your spent muscles as rapidly as possible for the quickest and most complete replenishment of muscle glycogen. This will keep muscles stocked with ample glycogen for your next workout. Glycogen also pulls water into the muscle cells, which keeps them fuller and bigger. Maximizing muscle glycogen levels post-workout by consuming ample amounts of high-GI carbs immediately afterward can also help you to keep muscle size maximized.

Always a constant staple in my supplementation. I mix with the Jym Post amino/Creatine formula to improve my recovery and maintain muscle density.

[@heavnbound]

Buy dextrose in powder and take that instead of candy with added artificial flavors and colors. Dextrose is much easier on the body than fructose. The key is consuming a sustained amount, not a high dose at once because it's high glycemic except after workout.

[@chayneellisphd]

I will be more clear- Yes I have looked at Jim’s articles (news, magazine etc) publications, however, I was referring to academic published research eg: Blackwell’s etc. My interest is in relation to time duration and results. Kind regards

You could always just take a powdered form of dextrose in your post workout shake, much easier in my opinion.

@@_lukejsmith agreed, but also, it helps you keep your pump longer. You know how a couple hours post workout your arms are actually smaller than going into the gym? That is when the glycogen stores are depleted. So dextrose is easily converted into glycogen quite quickly actually. You'll find your pump will stay plump for longer.

[@alancameron6937]

Nanny Resulbegu High GI carbs post workout are for maximising glycogen replenishment, a low carb diet might be good for fat loss but not the best bodybuilding strategy, the body will simply covert your protein into the sugar it wants leaving less for muscle building

[@JuanOLopezGerena]

You can mostly eliminate carbs throughout the rest of the day, have your dextrose post-workout, and still stay under 80g per day. Here's an example: For breakfast, Pro Jym, 4 scrambled eggs with shredded cheese, spinach and kale. For lunch, two hamburger patties with lettuce (use lettuce as the bun). For dinner, chicken breast with alfrefo sauce and broccoli. The gummy bears will feel like a reward for your dietary good behavior the rest of the day. :-) Notice that this style of eating is almost like doing the keto diet, except for the post-workout dextrose.

Originally the date was softened by mastication by the pious person and rubbed on the infant's palate. The taḥnīk also *exercises the muscles of the mouth* and helps with the *circulation of blood* in the mouth - this may help the baby to be able to suck and take mother's milk. It is also credited to prevent *neonatal hypoglycemia* in newborn babies. Now tell me. The western world has just acquired this knowledge. With all the gadgets and equipment and technology and professional knowledge, skills and team work - how did a man who neither knew how to read and write at the time of his prophethood, *know* such a thing?
