Just try putting 20-50g of glucose in your pre workout drink... That should replace muscle glycogen without filling up your liver too bad with it... and then the workout depletes that again - targeted ketogenic diet. It works.

The transition is the hard thing.
A few weeks in, you're rocking.
Just get plenty of electrolytes and plenty of water... That keeps the worst of the side effects and "keto flu" at bay.
What type of glucose?
Maybe OJ?
That's fructose. I literally use a glucose powder, man.
Hmmm...i dont like supplements man
Gotta be a real replacement i could use...
people are just giving box's for of protein and other shit they might not taste good but they still do the job
Maybe gatorade will work?

i have enough just watching those videos on the 'tasty' page heh
Dried fruits like figs, dates, raisins it seems... Honey. Agave nectar, perhaps? Maple syrup?
You're looking for high in glucose, low in fructose and other sugars...
There's a good list on http://thepaleodiet.com if you can stomach that.

That's dextrose (corn sugar) and it's a pretty good choice for pre or intra workout carbs. Pretty much every gram of dextrose is a gram of carbs. If I don't eat something pre workout that has carbs in it, I take a Gatorade along with me to the gym.
I like pop tarts pre workout too but I can't really have them in the house right now... too much temptation isn't good.
I buy cheap dextrose by the bag and add it to my post workout shake. I've been debating lately on adding it to my intra BCAA drink as well. Note: I'm not one that thinks BCAAs are actually beneficial in standalone form, I just get them cheap and they're tasty as a no/low cal intra drink.
Welches grape juice will also accomplish the same thing . Arnold was a big fan of this for carbs.Tastes better too

I tried doing that too but it made everything too sweet for me. I even prefer G2, the low cal version of Gatorade, because it tastes a little more watered down which I kind of like.
I have a bag of carb powder too which is okay but Gatorade powder is the easiest and best tasting so far for me.
Didn't even think of grape juice. That's not a bad idea. Even watering it down a little. Thanks.Welches grape juice will also accomplish the same thing . Arnold was a big fan of this for carbs.Tastes better too
I'm with you, that may be what's been keeping me from adding it intra. I don't want something extremely sweet during my workout. Just something barely above water lol. I didn't think about the powdered Gatorade, that would be easy to find your own sweet spot. (no pun intended).
I mix Welches grape juice w/ ON whey protein (vanilla ice cream) to make a PWO Grape shake . I like em...
