   How much Waxymaize would you suggest pwo for someone who is 245 at 12%bf?? Also why CEE, instead of monohydrate? I have been doing dextrose/malto for about a year now and seen results but recently hit a plateau

   @iamthe3rd
   I only use their Rico drink or almond drink! right on
   Almond is organic and has less sugar than the rice so I switched
   Obviously they both are NON dairy ……good job bro!

   BIOPLEX WPI is EXTREMELY expensive!

   I recommend Optimum Nutrition’s “ALL NATURAL” Gold Standard Whey.

   No artificial sweetners. Sweetened with “Stevia” (a plant).

   Chocolate taste the great but Strawberry tastes extremely bitter:

    Maxy waize has actually been shown not as effective as maltodextrin and dextrose in multiple studies. If you need some solid references them I’ll be more than happy to share it with you.

    From what i’ve seen, it works differently with different people. All in all, good video. Very similar to what i’ve been doing for the past couple years.

    hey man, just wondering; should i eat a meal before workout? i only ask because my job has weird hours. i go in at 3AM and get out 6 hours later and since my home is half-an hour away and the gym is 5 min away, i want to hit the gym after work, then go home. but i wondered if it was even healthy to do it that way. i dont eat during work, even on breaktime. thanks.

    Don’t want to sound like a hater, but you should read the only real study done with WMS on humans to date. Conducted by the US Army together with Univ of Chicago. The study conclusively proved the WMS is a great pre-, and intra-workout carb, but that maltodextrin was a significantly better PWO carb. Despite the rumors, WMS was shown to have too slow of an effect on blood sugar and insulin…taking nearly 2 hours to peak….which is what makes it a great pre-, and intra-workout carb.

    Okay Rico…Final questions. Do you do a complex carb with EVERY shake or just the post workout shake? And how much time do you seperate your shakes by for optimal protien absorbtion….thanks.

    @totalhealth4life Hey Rico….I left a couple of recent questions on your 3rd post workout video…Get at them when you get a chance…thanks bro.

    Sorry Rico, just read the end of the video, you awnsered the bcaas question. As far as the Protien shake goes. I have to have a sweet potatoe with it. Cooked of course. Do you throw yours into the shake and mix it. or do you have it before or after your shake. Thanks again.

    Yo Rico, can I add BCAAs…say’s it increased protien synthesis. Or would it make any diffrence? ALSO….I’m only interested in strength training, I don’t want to get big. Will this system work just as well for that? Finally for strength training. How much protien should I get per day? Thanks bro.
