Future prospects for post work out

After doing some reading and receiving some advice I will change post workout shakes to Hydrolysed whey.

However, im unsure if I am to use CNP Pro Peptides which offers a blend of proteins. Or to just use a pure Hydrolysed whey.And perhaps extra leucine to be added.

Hydrolysed whey
Mypro hydrolysed whey - Protein powders | myprotein.co.uk

Essential Amino Acids to go with Hydrolysed Whey
Essential amino acids - Amino acids | myprotein.co.uk

CNP Prop Peptides
Pro Peptide 2270g - Blend of Whey protein, egg protein and micellar casein

Carb wise I am unsure however which direction I should follow. Maltodextrin, Waxy Maize Starch, Vitargo and Dextrose.

Previously, when using creatine monohydrate I would combine dextrose and maltodextrin pwo. However, seeing as I am using kre-alk now im thinking perhaps pwo I should just use Waxy Maize starch.

During workout I was thinking perhaps

Essential Amino Acids shake and Dextrose? Or should another carb be used?
