I'm big on the steel cut oats too, people look at me funny at work, I make a breakfast wrap every morning with grilled chicken, a tomato basil or spinach wrap, then smother the chicken in half a cup of oats - then add hot sauce. Yum.

Yeah me too but I like the powder just for convenience

If eating solid foods are not convenient enough I'm just not sure what to say.

Touché, but IMO, I think we use that very line a lot without understanding by the way someone means convenience rather than thinking it means lazy.

I love carb powder- I use it either pre or during with my BCAAs (for flavor) creatine, glutamine, And taurine for those fucking hellacious back pumps lol.

I also use it directly after with my protein shake.

I train in Olympic weightlifting and our practices/sessions are anywhere from 1:30-2:15 depending on where we’re at in our training cycle- it’s a literal life saver for me.

BUT- I also eat a HUGE dinner an hour and a half post training every night and a solid meal 2 hours pre training session, so I’m not using it to skip out on food. It definitely can be a highly beneficial tool in a lifters arsenal.

Gummy bears, fast form of carbs. Powdered carbs are in the same group. Its fast in fast out and when you use fast carbs it is used immediately by the body and not stored. Is that a good thing? Sometimes it is but relying on it and making it part if your daily intake is worthless because it doesnt count. It has its place but save your money.

I might drink one protein drink a day depending on how busy I am but I’m a firm believer in Whole Foods when possible. I carry food wherever I go. I get funny looks but the wife’s used to it. I track everything I eat on my fitness pal. Basically I eat the same stuff everyday except dinner.
