Literally as we speak, Hour before I train and doesn’t lay heavy at all.

Only tried a few brands but this one below is by far my favourite at the minute.

Also find it mega useful on high days to squeeze in some extra easy carbs.

I know most just neck it with their shakes but I enjoy “food” and eating and chewing lol

4 x 30 second intervals in the microwave stirring each time comes out lovely.

So essentially you just use it like porridge and you like it hot/cooked?

Exactly that mate, for years I had (and enjoyed) 100g oats before training but found myself having to have them 90mins before training meaning rising even earlier as I train early.

Now with the COR I could probably stretch them to 30mins before training and move and train better without any bloat.

I cook them exactly like porridge and use only water to mix.

I do keep meaning to get a pint of red top milk and trying them with that one time but for now I’m more than happy with just water.

I might give this stuff a go when my powdered oats run out but only because you are suggesting that it's easier to digest than oats. I won't bother cooking it though as the whole purpose of carbs like this is simplicity so I'll just bang it in a shake. It will be hard to convince me that there's anything better than dextrose and malto pre/intra/post workout though.

I'm not going to try and blind you with science mate but if you're going to use this regularly a few times every day you should think more about blood sugar levels from this high G-I and empty calorie quick release carb source and also consider satiety.
Oats/Oatmeal, in any form, are much better than a bag of processed/refined white rice powder due to them being slow-release/lower G-I and providing fibre and other welcome natural nutrients/vitamins/minerals.
I was just wondering this, thanks for sharing ahead. :)
Always concerned with things that could raise blood pressure, or sugar.
