Coach sorry to be dense, but I am slow learner with good cash flow which makes me and excellent Biotest customer!

Any changes to peri-workout routiine listed below with the new Surge Workout Fuel?

Thanks in advance

Your work is very much appreciated, hope to meet you in person some day.

PROTOCOL 1 (1-3 times per week, when working on a weak area)
Workout - 60 = Alpha-GPC
W - 40 = 1 FINiBAR
W - 30 = 2 scoops Surge Workout Fuel
W - 15 = 2 scoops Surge Recovery
During workout (early half) = 1 FINiBAR
During workout (later half) = 1 scoop Surge Workout Fuel
W + 15 = Grow! Whey 2 scoops
W + 90 minutes = Grow! Whey 2 scoops

PROTOCOL 2 (other workouts)
Workout - 60 = Alpha-GPC
W - 40 = 1 FINiBAR
W - 30 = 2 scoops Surge Workout Fuel
During workout (early half) = 1 FINiBAR
During workout (later half) = 1 scoop Surge Workout Fuel
W + 15 = 1 scoop Surge Recovery, 1 scoop Grow! Whey
W + 90 = Grow! Whey 2 scoops

This question is answered in the thread below this on “Peri-Workout Nutrition.” Check that out when you get a chance.

Eric - Thanks I did see that, but it was only to timing not to dosage… The new Surge Workout Fuel has Surge built in which raises the carb total. Thus I was curious as to knocking down the Surge Load prior to work out. Or eliminating the Surge, double dosing the Surge Workout Fuel and then follow with Surge as a pure after work out component. Timing all the same, sorry should have been more direct.

Any thoughts

Sorry, but you lost me at “The new Surge Workout Fuel has Surge built in which raises the carb total.”

Ok, I told you I was dense!

Old Surge Workout Fuel label - 42g of Carb (2 scoops) 170 cals - No mention of Surge on Supplement Fact.

New Surge Workout Fuel Label - 64g of Carbs (2 scoops) 280 cals - Surge Hyperosmotic Glycogen Load on Supplement Fact Lable.

So, 22 g more carbs if no change to the protcol… Probably not a big deal, but stil could be adjusted, by less Surge <15 min.

My point is that the macros are not the same, and should there be any adjustment?

Once again, If I am just being a dumb ass, or picking fly shit out of pepper, PM me and delete the thread.

Thanks in advance.

I think you have omitted a few words 'cause some sentences still don’t make sense.

However, as long as you’re training hard, you shouldn’t have a problem using the additional carbs in the new Surge Workout Fuel. There’s no reason to cut the dose, or timing, unless it’s due to a limited budget.
