Green magnitude from controlled labs. It has the three main types of creatine and no side effects. No bloating, you don't gain a ton of water weight, and the strength and size gains are unlike any I have tried before.

BS it has no side effects, I tried it for a week and every time I took it I got really dizzy and felt nautious.

[pitchking]

somtimes creatine just dont work fo rsome people.

High Power Micronized creatine and Cell Mass are the best ive tried. But go for the high power micronized, more for your money.

I'm not a fan of monohydrate due to the fact I get dehydrated like crazy and I'm pissing every 20 minutes, can't sleep or anything cuz I'm waking, running to the bathroom all the time. The best creatine product I've tryed so far was definitly Ultimate Nutrition Horsepower. I'm a huge fan of this, I got great pumps, my strength went up a ton, and it didn't dehydrate me at all. Just my two cents...

[CONTROLLED LABS]

yup, great stuff in both apple and lemonade flavors, effective and best tasting supplement around according to mos ton this board.

it has magnesium creatine chelate and dicreatine malate.

[Alley-oop21]

What's a good creatine in regards to water absorption? I found that noxplode worked well but micronized creatine didn't seem to serve much of a purpose. Anyone want to recommend a product?

[pitchking]

NO xplode and cell mass

[B.O.L.A.]

I've tried these creatine products, and here's what I think of them. I never experienced many side effects with any of them, but that is just me.

Universal Chewable Creatine Tablets - This was the first creatine supplement I ever took, when creatine was first starting to get popular. They were AWFUL. They were huge tablets and tasted like chalk. Worst of all, a serving size was 4 tablets. I took them for about a year with so-so results.


GNC Effervescent Creatine Packets
GNC Mega-Creatine Extreme Packets

- These two are pretty much the same. I experienced similar effects with both. I felt a much greater effect from these than from the chewables. They ran out pretty quickly though, so I started only taking half a serving each time.

BSN Cell-mass

- Cell mass was good. It lasted me a long time and I did notice benefits. But I don't think it was much better than the packets. I also didn't like the fact that it had no sugar in it, which makes it a bad post-workout drink unless you mix it with gatorade or something.

Cell-Tech Hardcore

- This one didn't mess around. I literally put on close to 10 lbs in about a week and made big strenth gains. And this was after being in a plateau for a while on the Cell-mass. My muscles did seem a bit bloated, however. I would attribute most of the gains to the large amounts of creatine in each serving size compared to other products. And the sugar in it probably had an effect as well. It was by far the best product I've tried, but the cost was just too high for only a one month supply of creatine. Then again the serving sizes were enormous.

Size-On - Just started using this so I can't say much yet. I have heard good things though.

[Big Ben 712]

If you have the money every single one of BSN's products will do exactly what it says. Cellmass was the first creatine i tried and after several other kinds it is still by far the best.

[TD62]

has anyone heard or read anything about the new Muscle Ayslum Project product Optimal Dose or O.D.? its a post workout creatine?

[pittjoe33]

I've heard of them and read a little. I can't comment on them because I haven't tried them. The cost seems very high.

Nice descriptions. SizeOn works really good, but may take 2-3 weeks before you notice the results. But when you do, it's good. CellMass works really well too. Nice results from both.

[slizzardman]

Kre-Alkalyn has worked better for me than anything, and i've tried most of what's out there. I use the powder, about 2/3 of a teaspoon, however much that is in grams.

Being more like a menzter you say?!! EGAD!

[tuton11]

Best creatine for me has to be SizeOn, does exactly what it says and does not take long to see results!!

------>SizeOn<---------

Damn, size on must be pretty damn good...I would love to try it, but I'm only 16 and they don't recommend it for guys under 18...

I'm gonna try a pure creatine like Ultimate Nutrition's or Prolab's they seem like solid companies and I've heard good things from both...

Good choices, don't forget that Ultimate Nutrition's Creapure is micronized while Prolab's Creapure is not. Two other brands that run Creapure Micronized is Optimum Nutrition and Universal. Can't go wrong with any of those brands. Buy whichever one you can get cheaper.

Sorry to sound like a total idiot, but what does micronized mean? I was told to buy pure creatine at it's simplest form I guess...

[eg8b18c]

With micronized creatine, the particles are much smaller (up to 20 times), providing better & faster uptake into the bloodstream, better digestion, easier mixing, and less creatine left over inside your cup after mixing/consumption.

So micronized = better

Thanks reps...I'll make sure to get micronized cm then...thanks again.

Yep, that's what micronization is, it helps with digestion of creatine. It's no biggie as it's a preference for some, as long as you're getting pure Creatine Monohydrate you're set. Like I said before, any of those brands are great choices. I can also vouch for Primaforce's Creaform.

[TD62]

So Im looking to take my workout to a new level someone recommended takeing an NO pre-workout and a post workout creatine/amino acid anyone have any suggestions Ive never been huge into sups outside the Protein

[Juiced Up Jeff]

A Creatine Ethyl Ester is going to be better than other creatine products.
Ethyl Ester, when compared to other creatine products, still has same quality results with a lower water rentention rate and a higher muscle absorbtion rate!

All this means is that you won't have all that extra water weight and the whole "bloded" feeling afterward.

In this catagory, you can't go wrong with BSN Cell Mass.

-Creatine Product of the Year in 2005, 06, & 07!
-Contains 2000 MG Glutamine AKG (muscle recovery)
-Only $36.95
-2 flavors to choose from which both taste great!

MHP - TRAC Extreme NO is by far my favorite creatine product to date.

I've used several generic micronized creatines over the years and I've also tried a couple different CEEs. To date, none of the creatines I have tried have worked as well as MHP - TRAC Extreme NO. Several years ago when I took this product, I was a skinny kid fresh out of high school, I used two tubs of this during a 6 month period. I had never used any supplement before, and I was just starting to lift weights. During that 6 month period I went from 6'0" 135lbs - 170lbs. My bench went from 95lbs - 200lbs, deadlift went from 85lbs - 275, and my squat went from 65lbs - 285 and that's ass to grass squats! I don't know what my body fat percentage was at the end of those 6 months... but I did have very visible abs. Obviously I was small, frail and weak at the beginning of this period; as long as I was lifting and eating I would of gotten pretty good results. But I always credit most of my quick gains and results to MHP - TRAC Extreme NO. The logs I kept you could see a straight line of steady increases in all my lifts. Then you would see big increases when I started taking this product. For example, if my bench was going up 5lbs a week, as soon as I started taking this product it would go up 10lbs a week. And the same with my squats and deadlifts. I am working on my c.s.c.s. now so I already have a lot of people going to me for advice and this is always the product I recommend to them. Those who I recommended to try MHP TRAC all have agreed with me that this is the best creatine that they have tried.

As soon as I find a better product I'll recommend that, but for now, this and ZMA are the best things I have taken.

[EndOfSilence]

Kre-Alkalyn IMO is the best kind of creatine out, if you read up on the science behind it you will be surprised on how much creatine mono and CEE really doesnt do and how much Kre-Alkalyn does do

[Mtawali]

NO Xplode and Cell Mass BAD ASS COMBO!!!!!!
