When you train hard, you’re burning through muscle glycogen—your body’s premium fuel source for intense exercise. If you want to grow stronger, build muscle, and keep crushing workouts day after day, you need to replace that glycogen fast.
That’s why I’ve recommended fast-digesting carbs, specifically dextrose, immediately after training for years.
And now, with Unflavored Post JYM Dextrose (Fast Carbs), you can do it your way—no flavor conflicts, no compromises.
The Science Behind Fast Carbs
Post-workout is what I call the “anabolic window” – roughly 30–60 minutes after your workout ends.
During this time, your muscles are primed to soak up nutrients. That’s when you want to get in three things: quality protein (like Pro JYM) to kickstart muscle protein synthesis; recovery-boosting amino acids (found in Post JYM BCAAs+ Recovery Matrix); and fast-acting carbs (like Post JYM Dextrose) to replenish glycogen and spike insulin.
Insulin isn’t just a “storage hormone.” It’s also a transport hormone that helps drive amino acids, creatine, and other key nutrients into muscle tissue. That’s why combining protein and amino acids with fast carbs like dextrose is the ultimate one-two punch for growth and recovery.
Why Dextrose?
Dextrose is simply glucose—the exact form of sugar your body uses for fuel.
Because it doesn’t need to be broken down, it’s absorbed quickly, replenishing glycogen at top speed. Research shows that the faster you replace glycogen, the faster you recover – and the better you perform in your next workout.
If you’re training hard five, six, even seven days a week, this matters. A lot.
Why Unflavored Post JYM Dextrose Changes the Game
You asked for more flexibility… and we delivered.
The new Unflavored Post JYM Dextrose gives you the freedom to mix your carbs with literally anything:
- Your favorite Pro JYM protein flavor
- Post JYM Active Matrix for the ultimate stack
- Stand-alone EAAs or BCAAs
- Even a smoothie or just plain water
No flavor clash, no weird aftertaste. Just pure, performance-driven carbs that disappear into whatever you’re drinking.
How It Tastes
Mix Unflavored Post JYM Dextrose in plain water, and you’ll hardly know it’s there—it’s that light and neutral. No intense sweetness, no aftertaste, no interference.
That means you can stack it with Pro JYM, Post JYM Active Matrix, or any other supplement without altering the flavor. It’s as close to invisible as carbs get, which makes it easy to make Unflavored Post JYM Dextrose a staple in your recovery routine.
How Much to Use
I recommend about 0.4 to 0.5 grams of dextrose per pound of body weight post-workout if you’re training intensely or doing two-a-days. Pair that with about 0.25 grams of protein per pound of body weight. That combination is proven to maximize muscle repair and glycogen replenishment.
Keep fats low immediately post-workout to avoid slowing digestion, and then have a balanced whole-food meal about an hour later to keep the recovery process rolling.
The Freedom of Flavor-Free Carbs
If you want to get the most out of every workout, don’t just take protein.
Give your body the fuel it needs to recover, grow, and come back stronger. Unflavored Post JYM Dextrose (aka Fast Carbs) makes it easy—and lets you fuel up your way.
