Intra workout

[txsig]

So I'm looking for something that's not a disguised sugar loaded supplement. I love water but having something with some flavor and benefits to sip on during my workout would be great. Anyone have any recent brand recommendations for intra workout supplements?
Thanks in advance gents.

Cheers

Intraworkout supplementation is a waste of time if you're not one of the top 20 bodybuilders in the world.

That may be the case but I just wanted something to add to my water. It gets bland and a change of taste would be nice. Doesn't even have to be an intra, could be a mio for all I care. Just something with some flavor is all.

"Loaded with sugars" is kind of the idea, pal.... Intra workout nutrition uses fast carbs and EAAs to repair muscle tissue as well as prevent muscle protein breakdown. Any good intra drink will include a high molecular weight carb, and essential aminos (like what @Esjb007 suggest, Granite is good, but pricey stuff).

Price Wise mpa is the most expensive on the market. Not sure who can afford that on the regular ...

I bought some eaa off of NOW supplements, as they're a hell of a lot cheaper than granites. But god damn do they taste awful. So you mix the grape juice and honey? About how much do you make?

Anyone try the flavored eaa from muscle feast?

For me it’s 2 cups of REAL grape juice, 1 table spoon of honey, 1/8 tablespoon of taurine, 1 scoop of EAAs (idk how much that is anymore) and about 1/4 teaspoon of potassium chloride

Adjust your carbs as needed. 100 or so carbs is right for my daily needs....

I gotta say, I had a hard time finding grape juice that isn't from concentrate. What brand you using bro?

Mix your own. I follow one of john meadows intra ideas .. Highly cyclic dextrin, hydrolyzed whey protein, bcaa.. .some people will put citrulline or beta Alanine in there for pump/tingle, but if you're on gear you'll be pumped enough lol...

To you or anyone else. I’ve been using a homopolysacharide (similar to karbolyn) during my bulk. I like it but I do get a little more bloated than I prefer sometimes. I’m bulking so I don’t mind but when I start my cut I’m thinking about switching to HBCD to see if this helps with water retention. What’s the most price efficient way to obtain this? I ask you specifically since you mix your own.

Crazy how some of these guys are charging obscene amounts of $$$ for their pre intra and post wo products. Matt porters stuff sells for $60 and $70.
I understand the ingredients are top notch and rare in some instances. But how many people can afford a product with 20-30 servings that costs that much. Especially when one takes multiple servings ....

No wonder a science based guy like layne norton had his line cancelled. Better I guess in his case since Bb.com actually fronted the money and not him personally unlike guys such as Matt porter or John meadows.
