Couple Questions before I order

[w0cyru01]

About to order stuff just a couple questions:

1. From TrueProtein.com I'm ordering the FAST RECOVERY Post Work-Out Formula
30% Maltodextrin
30% Dextrose
25% Hydrolyzed Whey Protein High Grade
10% Glutamine Peptides
5% Branched Chain Amino Acids (BCAA's)

I think I remember MadMick saying this was similar to his PWO formula at a cheaper price. What is recommended for flavoring or anything else that I should add in.

2. From dpsnutrition.com I'm ordering the Ultimate Nutrition Creapure SKW Creatine Monohydrate - 600 Gram as well as the NOW dextrose.

My plan was to mix the creatine, FAST RECOVERY, and dextrose all in one for PWO. But looking at the FAST RECOVERY it already has dextrose in it. Is additional dextrose needed?

Thanks in advance for answers

Get one of their Black Star Premium Flavor Systems. It helps mask the bitterness of the hydrolyzed whey. I like the Ultra Orange Cream. It's pretty refreshing after a hard workout.

Personally, I don't think you need more dextrose. The quantity of creatine you take (5 grams or so) is small relative to the whey, so the dextrose in the Fast Recovery should be able to transport them both without a problem. That said, I wouldn't take them together at all. I'd take the creatine w/ dextrose preworkout and the Fast Recovery postworkout. In this case, then, you would need to get yourself some dextrose.

Muscle Milk has a pretty solid rep around here, I think you're safe if you stick with it.

w0cyru01,

You definitely don't need more dextrose for your creatine. Just mix 5-10grams in with your PWO drink from True Protein and you are set. EXECELENT drink.

As far as flavoring goes... If you aren't the gambling type I'd go with the BSL flavors like fat_wilhelm recommended. I tried a similar formula with the free cherry flavor and it tasted nasty as hell.

As for building a replacement to muscle milk... I'd just stick with Muscle Milk. It's probably impossible to beat it's flavoring at true protein and to build a quality MRP there would be more costly in my opinion. I don't really like the formula of Muscle Milk and I'd love to build my own but it's just too hard to compete with Muscle Milks price and flavoring.
