Best Overall Creatine Product?

[Austin109]

celltech is garbage. dont get it. cell mass is "okay" not great. i would look into sizeon by gaspari, or green mag by controlled labs

celltech is garbage. dont get it. cell mass is "okay" not great. i would look into sizeon by gaspari, or green mag by controlled labs

well put. cell tech takes creatine monohydrate and puts in alot of unnecessary dextrose.

my preference is one bulk creatine mono with carbs/protein for everyday. and one high quality one like size-on, mag, no shotgun for before or after working out

seriously though why the heck are cell tech and no xplode so popular.

[richc]

Can one take BSN's Cellmass and Cell Tech's Creatine at the same time?

Im planning on buying some creatine next week but first want to make sure that it won't be too much of something or anything...

Cellmass is sold as a post-workout product but its not "creatine" per se, right?

Also, today is my last day on a high-protein (almost exclusive) diet. Could that harm my liver in any way? To jump right in into creatine?

cellmass is a creatine product, CEE, to be specific. i would not use both products, and id have to agree with some of the other people as to size on, so far ive seen the best results with size on/superpump

i would never use an exclusive protein only diet, you should always balance your meals between protein, complex carbs and healthy fats, personally i like the old rule of thumb 40 40 20.

So I should quit Cellmass and Celltech hardcore altogether and just go for SizeOn by Gaspari?

Jan

Oh!and the protein only diet was just an experiment until today. I never do it.

[shagwag3n]

i'm still not sure i understand the diff btw regular creatine mono powder and the cee stuff? is one better than the other? should both be used at the same time?

[richc]

i'm still not sure i understand the diff btw regular creatine mono powder and the cee stuff? is one better than the other? should both be used at the same time?

cee = CREATINE ethyl ester
mon = CREATINE monohydrate

and a hundred other formulas, they are all the same creatine amino acid just bonded and buffered with different things, each company claims they have found the magic formula to make creatine both more effective and efficient, as to which is better, youll have to find out for yourself, everybody responds differently to different things, just b/c something didnt work for someone else doesnt mean it wont work for you. personally i have made the most progress with size on, but thats partly because there are some good carbs in there that keep me fueled all through my workout, in the end the harder you train the more progress youll make, even if its only squeezing out 1 or 2 more reps than usuall

why would you? your mixing junk (celltech) with good stuff (cellmass). theres 10 grams of creatine in celltech and something under 5 now in the new cellmass. you will get better results with less creatine. go with cellmass and cellmass only. use the money u were gonna spend on celltech and buy a couple tubs of protein. you can never have too much protein. :P

[Ilke2gofst]

Thanks for the responses, I think I will try my luck and try to swap for the new....GNC has a pretty lenient policy.


I have not seen much talk about Con-Cret... anyone use it? the GNC dude was telling me that it is amazing.... any thoughts?

Go to gnc they will take it back just make sure you have your reciept and tell them why you are returnin it and they cant say anything. Trust me ive done it haha

[Austin109]

actualy ive heard great things about con-creat. never tried it yet but from what i hear its a solid creatine.

Question about the creatine types= only real difference is in you. it varies person to person. i personally like sizeon and green mag. size on when i have extra money and green mag as the economy version.

[jovocop]

I haven't seen anyone write anything about 'blow' by magnum...personally i think its amazing, when using it pre-workout and cellmass post ive had some pretty good gains.

[janjo]

I read that Celltech's creatine has a large dose of high fructose and thus, promotes bloating or water retention givig one that "puffy" look.

How does Size On compare in this area?

im sure size on blows celltech away...i havent tried size on but ive tried celltech and it sucks

well i went to GNC today and ended up w/a bottle of creatine ethyl ester.

the guy said that it's better than the monohydrate since i won't log as much water weight, and that i shouldn' take the pills on the days i'm not working out...

everything i've read so far says otherwise since it'd just be a waste, anyone wanna chime in on this?

[TJ2000]

I don't know if size on works great or not BUT my first day taking it (today) it tastes pretty decent, not amazing but def not something I'd want to stay away from drinking. I have the grape blast flavor by the way. Taste is a solid 8/10.
I usually drink it before my work out or through out my work out, and its not that bad. Hope it works.

Size On BY Gaspari - Get a Great Pump and Definite Strength Increases, best creatine i have taken so far. Only Problem is its not easy on the wallet

My fav's in creatine matrix remain Sizeon and Universal Storm .
And in plain creatine its Labrada's Crealean with 3 spoons of gulucose .

[jetjockey]

Creaform ! Simple, Cheap, Effective

[heyits82]

green mag. i bought 2 of the big 80 serving containers fer $27.99 each.

[cjdelaney]

I got one for you guys. I have been taking noxplode and cellmass for a while and I think they work great but I have been shopping around and I am pretty sure I can by AAKG, Glutamine, and Creatine Ethyl Ester individually and save a ton of money. I know that the BSN products have all kinds of other stuff designed to increase uptake and transport and everything but I am on pretty fixed income and the cost is an issue. My question is, aside from the main ingredients (creatine, glutamine, arginine), how much is all the other stuff in the BSN products really worth? Do you think I will notice a significant difference?

[kylethack]

Armegeddon

[Chalky-White]

Armegeddon

if youre talking about StarChem Labs Armageddon, youre mistaken, it is not creatine. it is a pre-workout with a useless amount of Creatine Mono. in it.

[spot_skater]

I just got finished with a stack of Green Bulge/White Blood (essentially the pill forms of green mag/white flood, I think??). I was VERY happy with the results.

Accompanied with a bulk I put on 11 lbs in about 8 weeks, and my dead lift 1rm went form 365 to 415 (feel like I could have pulled more), Back squat is up to 275x5 DEEP (also feel like I could have had more) and front squat is up to 225x6 (did 225x5 today after pyramidding up after back squats AND front squats). Flat DB press is up to 85x6, as well (from about 75x5). All stats at current weight of 152. Supps were taken exactly as directed. 5 green bulge/day and 3 white blood on training days (mon-fri).

Strength has gone way up, as you can see. Can this be solely contributed to the CEE and NO stack from CL? I don't know. But personally I feel like it definitely had a lot to do with it.

To the boys at CL, great job. I will probably give some more of your products a shot. :)

[janjo]

got SizeOn yesterday. I thought it was CEE but its mono.

[tnsfinest]

SizeOn is working great for me, I noticed results on day 2. The Lemon Ice flavor is pretty good, but tastes even better with a bit of lemon flavored drink mix thrown in (kool-aid, gatorade, etc).

[CONTROLLED LABS]

GreenMAG for sure!!

[paolokav]

what supplement should i use to get more mass on my abs? if it's possible reply at my bodyspace. thanx

[baznguy]

got SizeOn yesterday. I thought it was CEE but its mono.

it has more than just mono

[overkill2020]

This summer im planning to start a stack of creatine I can decide though... Cellmass or Creckic Caps if i do the cellmass i will also do the N.O. Explode or Superpump 250 with it.

So which creatine and which preworkout N.O.?

[baznguy]

Superpump + Size On. I never had any gains from Cell Mass. it was a waste.

[dgcoats]

Cell-tech Hardcore worked best for me, which was surprising, considering most MT products are bull**** propaganda. An unpleasant surprise has been Green Magnitude. I've been taking it for the past month and a half and have seen very little results. I was disappointed cuz I heard nothing but good reviews, and I love most of Controlled Labs other products (Orange Triad!! Buy it!!). I'm about to start using Universal Storm pretty soon so if anyone has used that and it worked well/sucked ass let me know.

[overkill2020]

Celltech For the most part I heard that muscletech products are crap, Universal storm is cheap but works well

So normal monohydrate or cellmass help me out

[gholston50]

for anyone who has tried both of these products, how would you compare sizeon and storm to each other? which one did you like better?

[christopher.victoria]

I see alot of people praising size on by Gaspari, i was thinkng about taking the tabs to stay away from the xtra sugar and carbs. Do the tabs work just as good as the powder?

[TXHoopsChick]

I personally really like this stuff called "Anabolic Switch". I used to always use the white Creatine Monohydrate powder from Optimum or Twinlab I think. Anyways, the stuff gave me an upset stomach sometimes, took a while to feel it set in before a workout, etc. This Anabolic Switch stuff is supposed to be a better type of creatine and I feel a major difference on it! Within 30 minutes of drinking it, I feel it in my system totally and feel amped to work out. Anyone else tried my same creatine before?

[SokViChet]

CellMass (the post-litigation AVPT formula) is the only creatine I've ever tried, so it is difficult to measure the effectiveness. The taste is amazing and it seems to be a potential source of my greater-than-usual gains, but it's time to try something new.

I'm having a hard time deciding between Clout and SizeOn. How bad of an idea is it to use both SizeOn with (Clout or CellMass)? As it seems they are two different kinds of creatine (monohydrate vs CEE) and used at different times (during workout vs pre-bedtime/pwo). It seems this would put a bit of stress on the kidneys... Would it be overkill?

Additionally, CellMass has some recovery elements in it as well as Clout. What type of recovery products do you stack with your creatine? Like Xtend or Purple Wraath? I'm still using MHP Glutamine-SR which has been an AMAZING staple for me since starting lifting.

Please go easy on me. Still learning :P

[Austin109]

even though they say to take them at dif times you really shouldnt stack 2 creatines. once they are absorbed creatine is creatine is creatine.

Sizeon+PW is sick man. youll have to force yourself to leave the gym.

Clout is supposed to be great too

unless your trying to cut weight, the carbs are a must, its one of the ingredients that keeps you fueled and kicking a@# right up to the end of your workout

Do you mean you take two creatines? why is this better than just one?

ok ill play. I got some Controlled Labs - Green Magnitude as my very first creatine product purchase.
Having never tried any creatine before, the taste is very sweet, and it is easy to go down or even sip like an actual drink.
I found I was mixing in too much water at first.

without any other product to compare it to Im afraid I am at a loss to give a results report.
All I know is that it tastes good!

give it a few weeks to fully kick in and make sure to take it on off days too. 8 ounces is the sweet spot for many.

can you mix cell mass to your protein powder and use it for pwo?

or take it separately?

Everyones jumping on the CL band wagon around here.
I personally find Swole V3, Size on, and storm are solid creatine products, same with NO shotgun though its more pre work out.

you cant define which is "the best" there are so many variables, if it doesnt work is it because the product is crap or is it your diet or maybe your training regiment which is crap. unless your diet and training are up to par dont waste your time trying figure out which creatine is best because your not gonna see any results anyway.
in the end you just have to experiment with the different formulas out there and figure out which one works best for YOU.

[dgcoats]

That's the thing, though. I was off Cell-Tech for about two weeks, so I felt that was plenty of time to get my body back to pre-creatine stage and make sure Green Mag worked well. Should I have waited longer?

[randomperosn]

storm:) gona try GM next round all ive heard...good things bout GM:)

[ice4me]

Ive been on storm then went to GM for a few months .. now back on storm and will probably go back to green magnitude in a couple months. 2 best for me. Storm is best bang for buck but GM isnt far off. Right around the same.

I dont think I gave sizeon an honest shot at it but the 1 month I was on it I dont think I like it that much. I dont think I was on point when I took it though but I still wont buy it again.

no need to wait, but you wont get the same type of results as you did the first time you started taking creatine. also, make sure to get in at leas a gallon of water per day

[*DH*]

I'm going to buy creatine tomorrow, but I'm still trying to decide which i should get.

GreenMAG or mono ?

[bodybuildingdud]

Correct my understanding if I'm wrong:

-stuff like AST Micronized Creatine (Monohydrate) is a 1st generation creatine supp
http://www.bodybuilding.com/store/ast/microcreatine.html

-and have been superceded by state of the art creatine supps with other included supps eg. Cellmass, GreenMag, Sizeon etc..

Right?
Or will a basic micronized Creatine Monohydrate supp still do the job?
(not fussed about any specialized pre or post-workout drinks)

[kcinnitram91]

water retention is healthy while on creatine. It means that the creatine is bringing water into your cells.

BSN Cellmass best tasting & More importantly designed to take AFTER workouts not before!

Ready to go Creatines with no loading phase , most take before workouts leave you bloated running to the toilet often during workout.

Worse, those like Gaspari Size On are designed to be taken DURING your workout - lovely nice big powdery nasty tasting drink with at least a litre (yes 1 litre!) of water.

I know Betagen, by EAS, contains Creatine, HMB, and Glutamine, but would this be as effective as Creatine alone? Has anyone tried it?

I tried a few Creatine before such as Labrada's CreaLean II, Creakic, Cell Tech (bahhh!!!), and Phosphegen HP. CreaLean II worked just as well as Creakic for half the price (my body responded well to it). Before I go back to CreaLean II, I was wondering if the combination in Betagen would be a better buy.

Can anyone help me 2 decide which is the best creatine monohydrate . .. is it higher power micronized creatine, AST micronized , ABB creaforce or Prolab's creatine ??

It doesn't really matter because they're all mono. However, I'd go with Prolab's because its Creapure

http://www.creapure.com/

I'm personally trying Green MAGnitude. It tastes great :)

[bodybuildingdud]

Creapure is simply Micronized Creatine Monohydrate - better than the non-micronized variety..

What about all this new gen stuff like:
-SizeOn
-Greenmag etc

Are these basically Creatine + pre/post workout drink?

[Anabolistic_Creation]

EAS Phosphagen Monohydrate Creatine is outstanding. I havent trialed many products but I know that When I take this creatine combined with carbs, and a high carb and protein diet throughout the day (which should be automatic anyway, I shouldnt have to say that) I gained 7.5kg's in 3 weeks!! Thats 16.5 pounds in 3 weeks! My dimensions went up considerably with everyone from family, friends, gym buddies, complete strangers and my girlfriend telling me Ide gotten bigger. But I paid the price with my fat going up about 2-3% and my wait increased by 2 inches. With hard training, a high carb diet, and THIS Creatine...You can gain weight.

[JustiNtense]

Green Magnitude and Storm are very good creatine supps, I pretty much just alternate between them, about to finish my 3rd tub of green mag and im going to order my 3rd Storm when it's up.

No Load, No Cycle, No Binders, No Sugar, No Fillers, No Buffering, No Micronize, No Side Effects-that includes headaches. By the way check your blood sugar level on the headaches-what you could be taking is layered in sugar or some type of sweetner and that could be a cause.

Oh the benefits....micro dosing hellooooo 1/4 teaspoon per 100 lbs....never heard of it until now..MICRO DOSING....why..it is pure!

where to buy this product ??? pm please thanks

[illinijeff217]

Yea, does anybody know how much creatine is in each serving of SizeOn

[CONTROLLED LABS]

Green Magnitude and Storm are very good creatine supps, I pretty much just alternate between them, about to finish my 3rd tub of green mag and im going to order my 3rd Storm when it's up.

yup and people can get free green magnitude samples by clicking the link in my signature below :)

just bought some sizeon.. hopefully it works better than Satur8 did.. i havent taken a creatine in a loooong time and this is my first time to try one in about 2-3 years.. from what i read on here it seems pretty good.

I have to say Kre-Akylan.. I do not see why one would not use it. A little more money at first, but spreads out longer.
Easier to use capsules, 750mg each, no side effects at all.
Pure power and getting some gains I never have had before in my workouts.
I cannot really compare to other forms, as it is my Creatine experience.

[gregorious]

Higher Power Creatine Ethyl Ester in pill form did nothing for me. I'm willing to trade what I have left (~170 caps) for another type of creatine that didn't work for YOU. Whether in pill or powder form doesn't matter. PM me.

I've been on Cell mass for about 3 weeks now, the results seem to be good but as soon i run out i'm thinking about trying something new. I was wondering what the big difference is between cell mass and green mag other than the price. I like the fact that i don't look bloated from cell mass. Will Green mag make me bloated? And when I'm done with cell mass, should i wait a couple of weeks before starting up with something new? thanks in advance.

has anyone tried these brands before or anyone had gained water weight with some other brands ???

i think pure creatine mono is the safest form of creatine to take... product like Green MAG or Cell Mass can prove 2 harsh for the stomach n can cause some serious Side effects ??? please suggest or correct me if i m wrong ??

Any ideas on why creatine only comes in fruit flavors and not vanilla, chocolate, etc? I doubt it's because of the chemical make up of the product, the flavors are all artificial anyway, so why only fruit punch, grape, orange, etc?

Wow i figured you'd need to take two. That's not bad at all considering i take 2 scoops (sometimes 3) of my current workout supp which costs more than $40 and i can go through a 2 lb tub of it in 2-3 weeks. Green mag should last at least 2 months if im not mistaken.. or does me weighing 200 lbs make it so that i have to increase dosage?

[crane_470]

I bought 6 star fruit punch in the powder form 2 days ago and it taste great. Its also supposed to be made by the same company as Cell Tech and its got lot of sugar I know this is off topic but im 18 6' tall and 157 pounds and im just trying to put what size I can and I have an extremelly high matabilism ( sorry for the grammer) so I was wondering what should I do im already taking true mass by bsn and that 6 star.

[AmericanPsycho]

depends on who you ask i guess

[quasibatman]

Is CEE better than monohydrate powder such as MuscleTech Creatine?

no...

I was reading about this and and monohydrate is the one used in all the studies you hear about...

CEE is not really as trusty...

------------------------------------------------------

and if anyone wants my opinion on best creatine products:

------------------------------------------------------

1.) Clout from Man

2.) Storm from Universal

3.) Phosphagen Elite from EAS

note: I wanted beta-alanine with my creatine because I read some amazing studies on the effectiveness of creatine with beta-alanine

honorable mention: green magintude with purple wrath would be cool for all the control labs people

I heard the best Creatine supplements are the Kre-Alkalyn (Pills) This true? ( i am considering taking them )

never tried kre-alkalyn but i think the majority would agree that creatine monohydrate is the way to go.

No... As long as you train the same as you did while you were on the product you'll keep your gains. I'm sure there is some controversy on the subject, I'll try to find you some articles/proof to back it.

truth comes in personal experience. I whole-heartedly agree and support the statement made by wherestherackat. I've never lost gains after comin off of a creatine product when I've stayed workin hard in the gym, keeping my diet the same and everything. I think that when people get off creatine they quit workin out as much because they don't think they will gain as much so in fact they do lose it.

1. I would use Size ON over Green mag. It is good for absorption to take a creatine sup intra w/o plus Size ON has plenty of carbs to keep you going. BCAAs are great for preserving muscle and are also best taken intra w/o.

2. Protein is a macro nutrient and you should get your daily allowance however you see fit. If you like MM no reason to stop. Creatine is only a bonus.

they complement each other. green mag pre and purple wraath intra. creatine (found in GM) and beta alanine (found in pw) work well together.

[milou]

sometimes i heard people said GM with white flood and some other times i heard GM with purple wraath! wich combination is the best? should i add anything else with stack for muscle strenght and pump?

[c0rv3tt3]

From my experience the best Creatine is the simplest. Creatine Mono. I felt no difference when i used SizeOn or Regular mono to be honest. I'd save the money. and go with the Creatine mono. Higher Power would work well. 1000 grams 20$.

[TLUzLS1]

I took two bottles of anavol back to back recently and was extremely pleased with the results. It made my strength and endurance skyrocket and I was never tired or sore. It made me look a lot bigger as well. I went from 204 to a consistent 220 with 2 bottles (I know a lot of it is water weight but my strength went up a ton as well so idc). It lasted me about 6 weeks b/c I took the highest dosage (10 pills/day). Everyone I know personally has had great results with it and all highly recommend it but on here nobody ever mentions it on this site. All anyone ever talks about is green mag and size on as far as creatine goes. I got off anavol and started GM just to compare the 2, next I will do size on. So far the diff between anavol and GM is I am sore a lot more with the GM, but my strength gains are still pretty good. I've also lost about 2-3 lbs. since switching from anavol to GM. I would give the anavol a 9/10 and the GM a 8/10. Also, im stacking the GM with WF now and my workouts with just anavol were the same (as far as intensity/endurance, but maybe not energy).

So has anyone on here also had good results with anavol??

[CONTROLLED LABS]

Everyone's anatomy is different, and what works for one certainly doesn't work for all. Such is the case with me and Creakic. I ran a bottle of Creakic and saw absolutely no volumization, nor any gains from it. I admit, I was drawn in by the marketing hype of MuscleTech, and it cost me.

A few months later, I purchased a bottle of Now Foods creatine monohydrate for the whopping price of $9.99, and after 48 hours on the loading dose, saw immediate volumization. Now is a reputable supplier of vitamins and supplements, and I bought it off the shelf of a reputable retailer. I have seen excellent gains from it and tolerate it well.

Screw MuscleTech and their over-priced marketing campaign that YOU, the paying customer, pay for.

N wat r the side effects if i dont consume more water during the creatine phase ??

Any help guys..... thanks

I would stick with just the 5 grams a day, no need to load. Your preference really on wether you want half pre and the other half post or all at once. If you dont consume enough water you will get dehydrated and probably start to cramp up... Keep you water intake to 1-2 gallons a day if possible...

[Shelloutfalter]

N wat r the side effects if i dont consume more water during the creatine phase ??

Any help guys..... thanks

Creatine can be taxing to your renal system (kidneys). Failure to consume an adequate amount of water can sabotage your gain potential, while at the same time burning your kidneys.

Creatine is a perfectly safe supplement if you consume enough water and cycle it properly. There's an art to cycling creatine to ensure you keep gains and don't burn your kidneys. As long as you follow that, you should be safe.

It's amazing what doing your homework on the science behind supplements can do for someone's size while at the same time saving you a ton of money.

Let's take MuscleTech's Leukic for example... The main ingredient is L-Leucine. Now, there are a couple of other fancy sounding ingredients, but I'd go as far as to put them on the "inactive" side. If you go out and buy a reputable brand of L-Leucine supplement and take it consistently, you'll get the benefits of Leukic without paying MuscleTech's ridiculous price tag.

As I noted before, I saw no benefit from Creakic, but a $9.99 bottle of 100-percent creatine monohydrate caps by Now Foods produced immediate results for me.

I urge everyone not to be won over by marketing hype. Read the reviews, do the analysis yourself of supplements, purchase ingredients separately, get results and save.

[Ichiban_D]

My friend is taking TRAC NO extreme and was wondering if its safe to stack green Mag, cell mass or some other creatine product with it. Should he take creatine with preworkout with TRAC or take the creatine post workout? Personally I'd tell him to go with the green mag because the servings last longer for it's price and my gains have improved. Cell Mass works but it took me about three weeks for it to really kick in. Plus CM doesn't leave me sore the next day.

Nothing wrong with that :cool:

[CONTROLLED LABS]

I am trying to cut and lose fat, so I plan to take Animal Cut and I want to take a creatine with it after I am done with my protein. BUT I need to get bigger and stronger for football.

WHICH IS BETTER FOR MY SITUATION?

GreenMAG
NO-Explode
CellMass
NaNo Vapor


Green MAG is solid and sour apple tastes great...i don't recommend no xplode it was worthless to me

cant go wrong with green magnitude and we offer free samples in the link in my signature below :)

[Ichiban_D]

Doesn't trac xtreme NO have small traces of creatine in it like NO-Xplode?

[Dro3]

Around how long would the 1.83 lb Green Mag + 1.34 lb White Flood combo last me?

[Ichiban_D]

WF has 50 servings,while GM serves 80.

both green magnitude and white flood will last close to 3 months per tub :eek: an amazing value

[Pbmiyagi91]

how would it last three months with 50 servings
i just got the two and i dont see the wf doing any more than two months considering i lift 6 days a week

[uncbob]

Tried Creatine several years back from GNC

Got a fantastic pump my first workout

I drank a lot of extra water

Went for my Sunday morning 10 mile jog and got dizzy after 3 miles and was dying of thirst--strained a hamstring to boot
Went home wondering if I screwed up my heart or something and couldn't jog for a month with the hamstring

Went off it that day and was afraid to try it again
Shame since my muscles felt like the were going to blow up during that one workout --great feeling --but not worth the risk

[Wicked_Edge]

This might sound like a stupid question but can I mix creatine with a weight gainer in milk?

[LayinLo]

This might sound like a stupid question but can I mix creatine with a weight gainer in milk?

Yes.




I have used MetRx creatine with good results.

[LayinLo]

im almost done with ON creatine mono and i was wondering if i should take some time off before taking SIZEON

If you have hit a sticking point, take 2 weeks off the creatine then restart on the sizeon!

[QUOTE=pittjoe33;68061743]I have been using all of the CEE and Kre-Alklyn products and found this article on Muscle and Fitness forums. It dissapointed me. Anyone have any thoughts on this?

beta-alanine with creatine in studies doubles muscle gain than that with creatine or beta-alanine alone...

Orotate and Orotic Acid are also Carnosine boosters like Beta-Alanine by the way...

this is why I am getting Clout and Storm and taking both...

(Storm had some extra nutrients I wanted to add and some more Beta-Alanine and Creatine too)

[Ryan314]

Just finished my first tub of SizeOn... and it will definetely be my last. Did not see any gains from it and gave me the worst GI distress / diarhea after every workout.

[Dro3]

What's the verdict on the GNC Amplified Creatine 189 capsules?

[bly3]

ive used several creatine producrts and the one i would definetly recommend is creakic. My strength jumped through the roof and taking it is really easy, unlike others where you have to time everything around it. 3 out of bed and 3 right after a workout, doesnt matter when you work out either, cant get much easier that that

[leightonlewis]

these two products have both worked well for me,o saw the mst gains from the La muscle range though

will you be stacking green magnitude with your white flood?

I used to use Mag all the time with WF, then I switched to Green Bulge. But now, since I am trying to save some cash, I've switched to Higher Power CE3.

God, Im about 3 weeks into CE2 HI-DEF, major disapointment!! I had expected alot from it, especially from all the reviews, but it sucks. No increased rest time between reps,no increased strength, nothing. I can't even feel it working. Just 4 big ass pills to clog down my throat everyday.

I'm switching to sizeon as far as expensive creatine goes. If that doesn't work, I'm goin back to simple $20 mono which works.

Wow that's weird. I'm in the exact same situation as you, haha. I'm excited for Sizeon, CE2 was a dissappointment.

[Trem24]

I'm currently on NO-Explode, which I found out sucks, it worked at first. Hate the way it makes you crash after workouts. Plus it makes me explode over the toilet.

Plan on switching to Green Bulge and throwing in Purple Wrath.

sounds great, but dont expect a stimulant energy rush like you get from noxplode since both of these products are stimulant free.

Ya that's the main reason why I am switching because they are stimulant free.

[brooketherocknv]

I'm using Muscle Armor by EAS and Pump Fuel by GNC it seems to be going well so far. What do you think of mixing CM(Muscle Armor) with CEE(Pump Fuel)?

[chinchillables]

Stimulant free is the way to go...always.

So today I invested in my first ever creatine product...NO Shotgun. Comments and questions...

- I was an idiot and I mixed it with room-temperature water. Tasted horrible. Tomorrow I'll try it with cold water...hopefully that'll help.

- I took it 25 minutes before my workout, the label recommends 20. However, I didn't feel any pump until 35-40 minutes into my workout. Does this mean I should drink it earlier, like say 1 hour prior to my workout, or is this just because it's my first time?

- The pump was great and lasted until the end of my workout. I felt bigger than ever (though I'm not big at all...5'10 147).

- The crash sucked. Anything I can do about that?

[G0re0bsessed]

You should've tasted the old flavor. This new one is like dessert by comparison.

I have tried about 8 different brands, and I was most happy with Muscletechs: Creakic.

I've been taking Animal Pump daily for four months. Switched to Universal Shock Therapy last week to get more bang for my buck, and I love it.

"His son did notice his dad?s increasing size. Downey had to bulk up for the Iron Man part and used a combination of exercise and creatine. ?I?m a big martial arts guy. but as far as looking good on screen. I started taking this creatine from Sweden. It?s a legal thing. People say it [creatine] bloats you. So you are putting on size, but you also look like you just ate five strombolis. But this stuff is non-bloating creatine. When I was taking it, I looked really jacked and then four hours after taking it, I looked like a shrunken monkey again. But I also worked my a** off doing it!?"

I've been mixing Dymatize Creatine with WF. Started Monday, and it tastes pretty good, and my veins are coming out a llot more, and energy is better. Dymatize was way cheaper then Green Mag and it's a good product.

there creatine is the best stuff on the market 4 time more bioavailable than any other monohydrate creatine out there, all there stuff is the best out there except they dont have any testosterone type stuff but i love there creatine clear and edge stuff has had me put on 15lbs of muscle in 4 weeks and the other 6 weeks two different times now

Hell yea, welcome to the revolution :cool:

[samsingh]

Celltech For the most part I heard that muscletech products are crap, Universal storm is cheap but works well

So normal monohydrate or cellmass help me out

totally agree with ya,celltech hardcore is a crap did nothing 4 me whereas UN storn is perfect in my case till now tried/consumed three can's .

universal = less price and excellent products .

[Nitric28]

So confused I thought its all the same crap. Hearing so much crap not working from people is getting me so messed up.

Animal Pump Owns All Other Creatine Products!!!!!!!!!!

[user905890545]

The only creatine product ive ever used is " Isatori Morph" .... garbage !!! felt as much of a rush i do drinking lucozade,, like afew others i dont have a ***** clue which creatine to buy casue theres soo many and all the companys write such a amazing things about there own products thats its hard to belive half the stuff thats said....


so could anyone recommend a creatine product or stack that genuinly works with some valid results or reasons... ?

would be appreciated bigtime

[jcfarinacci]

I think it all comes down to personal preference... I have taken monohydrate with good results but had a lot of bloating and GI issues. I currently ake Kre-Alkalyn with good resulds and no bloat. Go figure... I guess it wouldnt hurt if you try as we all know this sport is about trial and error.

If you are expecting a "rush" from creatine, you aren't going to get it unless it is a caffeine/combo product. Morph is not designed to be a stimulant.

Two options that I have used that contain caffeine (which will give you the rush) and creatine are Straight Jacked by BCL and Animal Pump (which I love).

First, try a good creatine monohydrate eg. Prolab's... along with a good protein and carb diet n see the amazing results u get .........

[romanista10]

what is your guys' opinion on Purple K, Kre-Alkalyn creatine I keep hearing that it is the best but I don't know so I wanna know what you guys think?

[JayKL149]

Prolab micronized creatine monohydrate. Cheap and in my opinion and from my research monohydrate is the best form.

[itzfrank]

what is your guys' opinion on Purple K, Kre-Alkalyn creatine I keep hearing that it is the best but I don't know so I wanna know what you guys think?

If you mean the purple pills? I took these and personally don't think it did much.

[skybluevodka123]

green mag the best as it is good value for money, tastes good, no side effects for me and instant results.

[ponarona19]

Well has anyone tried Jacked Stack-Kre-alk-lyn form www.quest-nutrition.com it gave me 50pounds on my bench press in 2 months.

If you order refer me as Ron this stuff is great. I used to take creatine but it hurt my stomach. But with this stuff there is no crash and you get awesome energy before workouts. It also taste great with no Loading Phase. Good Price too.

[colby2709]

I'd like to have people's opinion on a specific case

If one takes Creatine Monohydrate and also happens to take some gainer that contains crea mono, is it just useless and should take a simpler gainer?

i'm asking this cuz I plan on starting a cycle of crea mono and researched a little to see what gainer is the best/cheapest. I saw that some gainer contain up to 4g of mono per serving which would make the crea mono purchase useless as I've read 5g/day is enough...

Thoughts?

[Drew2430]

Any ever tried the After Max? Label says it has creatine mono with 40g of carbs and proteins each. Also reads like a meal replacement.
