I'm a big fan. You hear the details of his arrest? Complete BS. Found viagra in his shaving kit and called the police. Brutal profiling.

Fuck Rush---------hypocrite slob

they had a article in the NY Times awhile back about how he got a slap on the hand for all the illegal OC's and perc's he had and then they showed cases of other people who got addicted after car accidents, had no criminal history and got 20 something yrs for the same sh*t Rush did-

Thats Justice for u------

but really I want to hear some knowledge from the pros on Vitargo and its post workout value!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Vitargo with Creatine is for a during and post workout suppliment....BUT...I don't think it contains protein which is essential along with carbs for post workouts!!

I used it... Good shit.... Buy Ultra fuel its cheaper

4 scoops of that with 8 ounces liqued egg whites is a great time. Tastes awesome 100 grams complex and simple carbs 25 grams protein.

yeah I add 50-60 grams of whey isolate and 10 grams of L-Glutamine to any of my carb post workout drinks--------------------I was wondering if all its claims are really true---Im not concerned with the creatine I know nutrex makes one with it and Atwood makes a pure one

It is not vitargo.. It is a simple complex carb mix. tastes like fruit punch. Does the job. Vitargo is a waste of money unless you are carbing up for a show imo. Can get a jug of ulta fuel for 14 bucks. I swear by the shit its awesome.

Ok, I cannot help but SPAM a bit here. If you want the best recovery product on the market try ETS. It blows anything else out of the water when it comes to recovery (i.e. it truly works and has ergogenic benefits). Period, end of story.

Luke Wood · « **Reply #20 on:** June 28, 2006, 04:47:21 AM »

I will take in 100g of vitargo, 20g glutamine, 5g bcaa's and 60g wpi after a workout.

thank u very much Luke----what brand do u use? Does Vitargo help keep bodyfat down compared to other more sugary and simple carb post workout drinks (powders)? Im currently putting on some size-started off from a decenct BF around 9% so I dont have to kill myself when dieting comes around.

Really appreciate the response-------what other Professional sport can you ask a pro a question and actually get a response.

P.S Your a beast Luke---looking good----good luck in upcoming contests

Vitargo is a high molecular weight carbohydrate.
Studies have shown increased glycogen storage after ingestion of a high molecular weight carbohydrate, compared to a low molecular weight carbohydrate (IE: dextrose)

The high molecular weight "pulls" the carbohydrate through the gut, into the small intestine where the bulk of carbohydrate uptake occurs.
This osmalic pull can also increase uptake, and utilization of other nutrients as well.
The only problem is, the lower molecular weight of protein, and other nutrients can potentially decrease the molecular weight of the "meal" enough to reduce Vitargo's effectiveness.

Vitargo isn't the only high molecular weight carbohydrate, and I believe it isn't even the original formula anymore, as the original formula was more expensive to produce.

The "original" high molecular weight that Teh Chad used on Ronnie in 2003 was supposed to be a waxy potato starch, where Vitargo is supposed to be a waxy corn starch.
