Description
Carbox was created with the following, equally important goals in mind:
- loading before and during workout
- reloading after working your muscles,
- that is, continuous and even carbohydrate supply.
Loading
Carbox is a drink powder containing a carbohydrate complex. It combines five forms of slow, moderate and fast absorbing carbohydrates. It contains maltodextrin, dextrose, saccharose, fructose and corn starch. These sugars have different glycemic indexes, that is, they affect blood sugar levels to different extents. Due to their varied absorption rates, some of them supply your body with carbs quickly, whereas the others for prolonged periods.
Reloading
Carbox also makes a great companion during post-workout recovery. The carbs it contains contribute to the recovery of normal muscle function (contraction) after high-intensity and/or prolonged physical exercise which leads to muscle exhaustion and the depletion of the glycogen stores of core muscles.*
*This beneficial effect can be achieved through the intake of 4g/bodyweight kg carbohydrate derived from any source. This amount must be taken in within 4, but not more than 6 hours of high-intensity and/or prolonged physical exercise which leads to muscle exhaustion and the depletion of the glycogen stores of core muscles.*
Let’s see the figures!
Per serving (50 g):
- 47 g carbohydrate**
**The unflavoured version contains 48 g carbohydrate per serving.
How, when, for whom
- Those who like custom mixes adapted to their goals
- before workout – with creatine-containing products, such as Crea Zero
- during workout – with amino acids-containing products, such as BCAA Zero
- after workout – added to amino acids or proteins, e.g. to 100% Pure Whey
Like all BioTech USA products, Carbox consists of safe and carefully selected ingredients.
Recommended use: Mix 1 serving (50 g = 3 heaped tablespoons) with 300 ml water, or, in the case of unflavoured Carbox, with any liquid of your choice. Consume 1 serving before and during workout or competition.
