PWO nutrition is not overrated; yet, the protocols are debated (as you can see in this thread and others in the forum.)

IMO, the amount and type (of the non-protein part of PWO nutrition) should be dictated by your weight and bodycomp goals.

It would probably help to get your pwo intake more in line with the prescribed ratios if you're trying to gain weight/muscle.

As for your last question, I would never down large amounts of maltose/dextrose after steady cardio.

100%, I dunno. But Im of the opinion that if you start using a godo PWO shake you can see some steroid like gains right off the bat, or at least a lot more than you normally would.

fwiw, I use either surge, or after max, which is 2:1 dextrose:whey protien. I drink 400-500 cals pwo while bulking 15-20 minutes after leaving the gym, and I sip on about 150 cals worth during the workout. While cutting I just drink 400 cals worth 15 minutes pwo.

After a "cardio" day, be it HIIT, biking, or basketball, I eat a lot, but I basically just eat what I would have eaten at said time anyway. Not anything like Surge.
