All 3 are the same brand doing very different jobs an d used at different times.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here is how it works: &amp;quot;PSP&amp;quot; is taken before riding as it loads you with carbs. &amp;quot;GO&amp;quot; is during riding as it keeps you energized, and &amp;quot;REGO&amp;quot; is taken after as it puts back everything your body loses whilst riding...&lt;br /&gt;To be honest I only use GO and REGO as a good balanced meal an hour or so before going out is best, and much cheaper!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I would like to apologize for my lack of updates to posts and comments.
