Thread: how will this taste?

custom post workout formula--15% hydro 1400,15% hydro 520, 10% tr-fx, 10%peptopro, 40% rilose, 5% glut. peptides, 5% bcaas. fruit punch flavor. how will this taste? i'm a newbie here, so any tips would be great. I know sugars/carbs are kinda low, but i plan to mix this with a creatine recovery formula (also punch flavor) that has about 25-30 grams of carbs. So, will this taste ok or make me puke?

Probably not good. The hydros and peptopro taste bitter. Try to add whey isolate or cfl. That should help.

So, will this taste ok or make me puke?

Puke.

This formula is made up of 40% hydrolyzed proteins which are VERY bitter ... the 5% addition of amino's will make this mix taste worse still (they also tend to be very bitter).

Question for you ... do you have an prior experience with hydrolyzed protein usage? If no, I would recommend cutting back in the hydrolyzed protein to 25% ... 20% if you plan to use the 5% Amino Acid addition. Make the rest of your mixes protein any one of the PF's non-hydrolyzed whey's.

While I like Tri-FX, it isn't the best post workout protein due to it's higher fat content. I would advise using Tri-FX as part of a standard MRP.

As for carb selection, rilose is a good high GI choice if that is what you are after.

hey guys--thanks for the input. i know a little about hydrolyzed protein, but not much in the way of making my own formula. so, for starters i'll take your advice & ease up on those and see what i can come up with. thanks again!

thanks job and jon...

No Problem. BTW, the PF T-shirts are awesome. I like the gray color and the design is cool. Maybe you can do some sort of design with the back. Just a sugesstion.

why so much rilose?
