    dextrose is very good post workout. After you exercise you want to replenish the muscle glycogen, and dextrose is the best for this. Post workout, try adding 2 grams of dextrose for every gram of protein in your shake. Add 5-10 grams of Creatine and you should a nice PW shake.

    Or you can do oats 30 minutes pre work out and oats directly post. Oats would give you a steady insulin response as opposed to a fast spike from dextrose.

    well, a insulin spike before/after workout is nothing!

    I go with aroung 30grams before w/o and 50 after
    then i take 5grams och creatine before and the same after
    + 1 whey protein (before and after)

    Take it together with it, mix it in a glass.. and use it before/after workout, maybe something like this:
    30grams of dextrose before workout and 5grams of creatin
    50grams of dextrose and 5grams of creatine after workout.
