Won't pretend I don't use them, I do, sparingly, i.e. I take them to races with me and mix them with water at the HQ when I am ready to drink them. I do it because milk would go bad sat in a backpack for hours!
But during the week, milk is good enough. I've done 8 days of training and racing on the trot and am still hitting the numbers...
Id use the High 5 4:1 as stated above, and then after an intense workout drink a protein shake containing no carbs (Mostly to watch out for my weight). If I haven't been intense, and just out for a spin within my lower heart rate zones id stick to the 4:1 only, but see what your body needs. In other words, Id only recommend it after tough intervals.
Cheers Emil
