I’ve been thingking about mixing my own post workout shake from components, since the stuff on the market in my country is usually an arbitrary mix of differrent types of protein isolates and concentrates, ostensibly providing “timed release”. What I want is a FAST shake. Quick release! So what do you guys think about these shakes?
Whey Shake #1
- 50g Whey Protein Isolate (Cross Flow Microfiltered)
- 50g Maltodextrin Powder (Dextrose Equivalent 20)
Whey Shake #2
- 50g Whey Protein Isolate (Cross Flow Microfiltered)
- 25g Maltodextrin Powder (Dextrose Equivalent 20)
- 25g Glucose Powder
I can also add the following to any of the above shakes.
Additional items
- 300mg Methoxy Sterone / Ecdysterone
- 3g Creatine Monohydrate
- 2g Sodium Chloride (table salt)
It’s also possible to substitute Soy Isolate, which is MUCH cheaper, but probably not nearly as fast. Also doesn’t mix as well.
What do you guys think. The science makes sense… I think, but I’d really appreciate anyone who can share info and expreience with me.
Does anyone have a resource that discusses the comparative speed of release of the different types of proteins (whey, casein, soy, egg, etc)?
