Gatorade as pwo?

[Chicago Made]

To fulfill my pwo carb intake would 2 scoops (1 tbls scoop) of gatorade in the powder form with water be enough? Or should I eat some carbs, and if so, which carbs are good pwo and how much?

gatorade powder is fine. 1g of powder is about equivalent to 1g carbs.

gatorade + waxy maise starch is the best combo

how about a scoop of protein with the gatorade and waxy maise starch?

dextrose would be much cheaper.

that supposedly defeats the purpose of waxy maize starch - ideally you want the WMS to make up 75% or more of the total mixture. But this is assuming WMS does anything special anyway, which, judging from first hand experience and discussions ive seen on it, i dont think it does.

i agree...i do not like wms
