    V12...what flavor and other Qs

    I have been reading up on V12 and it has gotten really good feedback. Frew questions before I get it....

    1. Are there any flavores I should stay away from? Which ones are good?
    2. When do I take it?
    3. I know you are supposed to take it 2x a day but how do I take it...in my PWO shake, and the other time of the day do I just mix it in water like I would with creatine?

    Thanks.

    1) I'm assuming they are all good..I had grape back in the summer it was good with sufficient water.

    2) Morning/pre workout, pre/post, morning/post ..tons of ways. you don't need 2 scoops on off days.

    3) Fruit flavour would be nasty with a protein shake unless you're using a fruit protein as well. You can mix it with water.

    1. Stay away from the grape. I personally like the Lemon lime.Taste more like a lemon drop.

    2. Twice daily

    3. Take it with at least 16-20oz of water and no dont mix it into your shake

    i used v12 turbo fruit punch and it was grose as hell! i had to not breath when i drank it because it made me gag. ended up drinking it out of a bottle so i cant smell it. its extremely sweet. and since u haveto mix it with ATLEAST 20 ounces of water its a pain in the ass to down. i personally didnt respond to it. waste of money for me, but i have friends who had great results soo ya everyone is different. dont expect too much its not a g5 super computer like the product description says! swole v2 is seppose to be better but i havent tried it

    take it twice a day. one 30min prior to breakfest and one 30min prior to a workout. try to make sure the shakes are 8 hours apart. mix with WATER ONLY!!!

    i am currently on normal creatine monohydrate by prolab (been on it for 1 week) and the results are AMAZING!!!

    I'm hoping V12 will work for me cus it's kinda pricey and I didn't respond that well to creatine.

    If I eat breakfast at 8am and workout at 10am, should I have a serving 30 miniutes pre-workout or 30 minutes before breakfast? Then another serving 8 hours after one of those times, right?

    What brand of creatine have you used? If you just tried creatine monohydrate powder, perhaps you could try ethyl ester creatine first. It is an improved creatine and it usually works well even for those who didn't respond to creapure monohydrate (according to testimonies).

    Swole v2 or SAN V12 are not pure creatine products, so perhaps you should try that after you used EEC.

    Yea I have been using ON creatine mono. I looked at creatine ee a while back too. I am aware that v12 is not a pure creatine producy but I have read many reviews that people have gotten a lot of added strenth and mass from it....my goals currently.
