Gatorate Carbs

I'm thinking of using Gatorade for Dextrose on post work out. But in the label only says= Carbs Xx g Does somebody knows wich percentage of this carbs came from dextrose? and the rest?
 
A 32oz Gatorade has only about 32g (roughly, I cant remember off hand) of carbs and I don't even know how many of those are dextrose. I think its recommended to get about 100g of dextrose for post workout which would mean to get enough, you'd have to drink like 3 32oz Gatorades. I don't see that happening.

Just buy some dextrose. I got a 10lb bucket of it for like $10 and I've had it for over a year now.

Somethings not right with that.........10 lbs = 4540 grams

4540/100 =45..........so if you are taking 100 grams dextrose after ever workout, that 10 lbs would only last you 45 workout days.
 
The actual bottled Gatorade is not a source of dextrose at all. If anything get powdered Gatorade, the ones you mix with water.

You're always on the ball w/ your math skills StoneCold, I'll give you that! ;)

Guess I should be more specific. I got it over a year ago and I started taking it after every workout but that only lasted a month or so then I stopped using it. I have recently got back into using it again.

But anyway I found the site and its 11lbs for $10 bucks! Can't beat that! Dextrose Link

gatorade

I know dextrose is cheaper than gatorade... i bouth dextrose also. My question is becuse i do clen very often and it dehydrates me very much. I considering gatorade for post wo for the minerals rather than for the dextrose. I can't buy the podwered one, i never seen it in the stores.
By the way, i dont think 100g of dextrose will be a great idea for me for pwo, i'm at a high bf yet (18-20%).
Thanks for all the advices!

PD: i'm not offended by the comment hehe

Damn, awesome work, bro! I used to be a very chubby kid, too. I wish I had pics. I was about 250 at 6'1 and pretty fat. Lost a good 70 lbs of fat and gained a lot of muscle.
 
Thanks!
I haven't your luck in my weight lost and i think i loose a lot of lean mass too. That's why i'm thinking of using Anabolic Androgenic Steroids (AAS) (Sust cycle). I'm not shure when i can begin... i'm a little scary of gain some fat again...
