NOW Foods Sports Nutrition, Carbo Gain Powder (Maltodextrin), Rapid Absorption, Energy Production, 8-Pound

Great stuff! I use this product to add carbs and calories to my protein smoothies. It's tasteless, has hints of sweetness, and pairs well with any flavor.

This product has made it into my full time list of supplements.Working out for 2+ hours at a time takes a toll on my body. Before I started taking this product, I felt like the last half of my workout was a struggle. Now that I've started taking this, I feel like I can finish my workouts with energy to spare.The serving size for this is 2/3 a cup. There is NOT a scoop included. (though you probably have a scoop laying around that would be close to 1/4 or 1/3)Don't do what I did and stick your hand all the way down in this looking for one... you won't find it, and your hand will be covered in white powder.My favorite mixture now is to do the following:Mix in pre workout with water in a 24oz bottle. Drink half of my pre workout, add 1/3 a cup of this to my remaining pre workout, and top off with water. This way I am sipping on a lower dose of caffeine while also getting some much needed carbs throughout my workouts. I noticed an increase in muscle size after only a few weeks of drinking this in the gym (probably because I could get more quality sets in late into my workout)This mixes quite well into any beverage, and doesn't have any sort of taste (at least none that I could sense).It MIGHT make your drink slightly more viscous/thick, but it wasn't enough to really notice much. (I mix 1/3 a cup into 24 oz of water. This is half the recommended serving, but I think it's enough to get me through)I like this because it is an easily broken down source of carbs, so you can quickly replace your glycogen levels throughout a workout.I have not yet tried taking this as a mass gainer, so I can't comment on whether or not it helps with weight gain. However I can imagine this would work quite well, as you can drink your calories (drinking is always much easier than eating, especially for hard-gainers)I would recommend this product to anyone who is looking for an extra edge in their longer workouts. If you only do a light workout for 45 minutes, you probably don't need this. However, if you like to go hard in the gym for 1:30-2 hours, I would highly recommend adding this as an intra workout drink.I would give this product a 5/5. It mixes well, gives me the fuel I need to make it through my workouts, and doesn't leave me crashed at the end.

This is a great option for athletes. Amazing price on Amazon!

This doesn’t have measuring scoop , tastes good , good energy , good quality , easy dissolve , good performance , comfort in gut .

Well Firstly I love this product. I'm a total hard-gainer, and workout 5xweek. I always need to pack extra calories and specifically carbs into my diet without feeling bloated and gross. I have tried to intake calories by eating physical food, but my schedule and stomach size just simply doesn't allow this to work as great as i'd like. This perfectly fit my diet needs as well as budget needs. It's pretty good amount of product for the price and it adds a little more content to my daily shakes specially when i need them in the morning as a quick boost or post workout as well. 2/3 cup is what i use per shake and usually do one post workout for sure, and on days where I don't have enough time to have breakfast, i use it as a quick way of starting my day alongside some fruit and whole milk. I've been using this product for a while now and i've had no bad reactions to it or stomach issues.PROS: It mixes really well with my shakes (usually fruit, greek yogurt and oats and whole milk), cheap and no weird flavorCONS: none for me (if anything it can add a little sweetness to your shakes so just keep that in mind)I'd recommend it if you need to boost up your calorie intake without feeling bloated and while saving money instead of using mass gainers.

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 have an allergy to corn and I realize this is made of corn.... From what I see. Am I the only one that this gave a really bad headache to? It's been 2 days and this is the only thing I did different and I'm afraid to take it again. It DEFINITELY helped with my workout but I don't think my body likes it unfortunately. It definitely does not mix well either, it was slimy chunks

I use the serving size, half a cup, and use them for my bike rides in both bottles. No funny business with digestion, just straight carbs! Simple enough to use. I measure 1/2 cup then with a funnel I put in the powder into the bottle. add some water and mix with a knife.. I feel you have to or else it stays clunky.. then I add the water to the top and shake it up! Taste wise, you can tell something more than water is in there in terms of density, but very very light. Have not tried yet but will mix electrolytes with it soon. I recommend this, cheers! (no proof-read)
