I know eating sugary foods spikes insulin and this is bad...isn't it also good sometimes?

I don't know about other times, but ONE time that you want to spike it is post-exercise. Note that the insulin spike at this time will not make you fat -- all nutrients will be shuttled into muscles and other organs that need'em.

Hmmm. Immediately post wo I have a protein shake: 25g protein, <3g carbs. Then a light meal, approx 20g carbs 30g protein.
That sound ok? Wondering whether to get some simple sugars in (chocolate cake
) too?

Damo,
Here's another link JMB Post Work Nutrition
Hey during my bulking weeks I add ice cream to Driver maybe we could start the
" growing again with HST, chocolate cake and ice cream" diet.

Beware, Ice cream and cakes are Low GI foods because they are plenty of fats. I think ideally would be better to have a post shake without fat and fibers but with high GI carb and proteins(to rise insulin) immediately after workout and have a complete mixed meal(complex carb,prot,EFA,and fibers) 1,5-2 hours later to ensure a stable(and thus not high) glycemia.
