Eating carbs/how fast are they stored?

The same applies for during and post-workout: our bodies can absorb/metabolise about 60-90g/h. Limiting step is the transfer from the intestine to the blood stream. Hence, it can’t go faster then this.

Transfer from the blood system to the muscle is faster in the first hours after a workout and declines gradually.

If you do not have a second workout scheduled for the same day it does not really matter. Whatever and whenever you eat does not matter, as long as muscles have some storage capacity free carbs go in there.
