LOL, TALO, your friend is being not very bright. Of course I backed off the dosage and all that but it wasn't around the workout that gave the problems it was just the random symptoms the rest of the time.

With the bloating, btw, I'd ask the standard question...how much water did you mix it with? I've never heard of malto causing much bloating. It's usually dex that gives people the most trouble. Like you said, we're all different. I suspect the big difference between the malto/dex and the WMS in that respect is that WMS is somewhat more foolproof. Whereas with malto/dex you need to get the the right dilution (not exact but close enough). You have to play around with it until you get it right. I'll bet most people do not or are unwilling to do that. None of this stuff is standard, it requires some user discretion and education. People are so intent on everything being instananeous and easy....but these are just carbs, not "designer supplements".

Ross, I keep it pretty much half and half but I'm not sure how much carbs total I use anymore. I'd have to pay more attention. I do get some stomach bloat at the very beginning but I do want to say that some people are just being total babies about bloating. I use a lot of water, of course and I down a whole bunch of it at the beginning along with the carbs, protein, and creatine. So my stomach is full of water. Drink a bunch of water and see if your stomach doesn't feel bloated. It goes away in about five minutes and I continue to sip the rest....don't confuse a full stomach with "bloat" which involves not only a bunch of liquid being pulled in but unabsorbed stuff sitting around, gas formation, cramping, etc.
