[Reflex] Pit Stop Bars

Pit Stop Bars [Reflex]: Is the nutritional information of 1.9g of carbohyrdrates per 100g correct I ve just had a look at the label on their website and it s showing as around 34g, depending on the flavour.

Thanks for pointing out our mistake Neil, it does indeed contain 34g's.

[Reflex] Pit Stop Bars: I currently use Reflex peptide fusion with one scoop of reflex creatine before a weights session and After glow after. I then use reflex peptide again before bed. On non gym days I have one peptide in the morning with creatine and one before bed. Firstly would you recommend another creatine dose in my before bed shake I have been looking at these pit stop bars and am interested to know your thoughts on whether these would be a worth while addition to my current program and what beneifts would i notice from them and when are they ideally eaten Sorry a few questions there but just trying to work out if they are worth the extra money as it can get very expensive this keeping in shape stuff!. Many thanks.

To answer the first question - yes a second additional dose of creatine on your non training days would make sense but the pre bed shake may not be the ideal time. You can take creatine in water or another beverage, probably during the middle of the day for best absorption.

Secondly, the Pit Stop Bars are certainly one of the finest snack proteins on the market and far higher quality than almost any you will come across. Ideally however they should be treated as an occasional treat or for use when travelling or working without access to a protein shake. If your primary goal is muscle gain, then one snack meal pit stop a day as part of your six or so meals is fine. The main advantage is convenience. You can certainly use one as a pre workout snack for both protein and energy or between two larger meals to keep your protein intake high. They are also useful to use as a dessert after a low protein meal. During dieting, when you may be craving chocolates and sweets, they make a great treat food too without resorting to junk food.

In general however, try to make the majority of your meals from good quality protein shakes or whole foods with plenty of vegetables for the best physique.

Pit Stop Bars by Reflex: could you just confirm the amount of carbohyrates per bar, i bought these as they were advertised as having 1.9g of Carbs per 100g and after checking the bars, they actually consist of between 33.7g - 35.1g of carbs per 100g!

The bars contain only 1.9 grams of actual carbs, the rest, as stated on the label, come from non sugar poly-alcohols which do not cause insulin disruption or are stored like carbohydrates. You will not experience carb related slumps or fat storage from these bars.
