Sports Carbo Gain Powder Diet Supplement, 8 Lbs

No scoop, kinda a bummer

Good

Not too shabby, i use this on days i don’t feel like eating prior to working out or when I’m on a time crunch from working late. I’ve trusted this “now” brand with allot of different supplements for quite some time now. It mixes pretty dang easily with water or milk also and adds just a little bit of sweetness to your drink.

The first time I bought it taste sweet but the second time I bought it again it no taste what wrong with it 😢

Great price and works great. I have about a 30gr scoop from an old tailwind bag. For all rides, I eat (1) 25gr bar or gel per hour- makes it easy. For rides under 3 hours, I mix 2 scoops of this, 1 scoop of table sugar, 3/8 teaspoon boulder salt. Sometimes I add caffeine and squeeze half a lemon. This is about 60 gr carbs per hour. For longer rides, I go with 3 scoops of this, 1.75 scoops of table sugar, same amount of salt, etc. Never bonk, never cramp. No excuse not to use every ride as it's cheap, quick, and easy to make.

I've used this for a few different applications: 1) To reload glycogen after glycogen depleting sessions. I mixed 75 grams of this with 75 grams of dextrose. There was some stomach discomfort, but that's mainly because the solution was too concentrated. In any case, I felt my muscles filling back up (really cool feeling) and used it a few more times for this exact purpose. 2) Pre workout energy with whey protein. This has been my mainstay. I use 35-40 grams about 30-60 minutes before lifting and it allows me to keep the intensity high. Paired with caffeine, you have a very potent combo for efficient weight lifting. 3) Post workout as a carb source on the go. I train twice a day so sometimes I can't have a whole food meal post workout and this fits the bill. My energy is restored and I have enough fuel in the tank to continue on with my day. In all of my 3 trials, Carbo Gain has held up strong and will be a staple supplement for me.
