Hi guys, just wanted some of your opinions on using dextrose during your workout
Would this have a negative effect on insulin levels etc?
How many mg could I consume to aid intensity, before it's stored as fat?

During the workout? Uh uh, no, IMO. If you spike insulin during the workout with dextrose, you're going to experience an energy crash before completion. That's why you wait until immediately after.

I dont think that would be a problem as long as the workout does not last forever. I take 25g pre workout and dont experience any crashes.

I only train for 45 mins, and drink a constant supply of dex during lifts.
I haven't experienced a loss of energy near end of traing before?

i dont think sipping on a small amount while training will have any negative effects.
20-25g at most should be fine.
when my workouts were longer i used to sip on a just whey n sometimes a whey/dextrose drink only if my energy level was really down.
lately ive been getting my workouts in pretty quick so i dont feel like i need anything other than some water.

Thanks for the advice man,
I like it mainly for focus, and it's pretty much the only sweet thing (besides a small ice cream) that I have in my diet!
