Best brand of Creatine.

[shmitty1]

I am about to invest some of my hard earned cash in creatine, does any body know which brand of creatine is the best (a must buy). Is anyone familiar with Cellucor?

the muscle tech one is very popular but i dont know how good it really is, im thinking of getting some creatine aswell so if someone can post any recomendations or anything that would be good too

[Lil-King]

I think hyper growth by NXcare should be ok also prolabs Xpand, but a friend of mine was taking some good stuff with akg in it, Ill try and find out what its called. I donno always hear that muscle tech costs to much for what its worth but price shouldent matter when it comes to quality.

[Killa_Z]

one thing i dont ususlly moan about is price (unless its too ridiculous) because when supplementing you need to understand that you are doing this on your OWN BODY and so there really shouldnt be any cost too high for the best quality

[theslayerman]

celltech I can recommend as i've taken it personally and its bloody good. As you guys know the key is to get it to into your bloodstream and your muscles fast - so any creatine mix that has sugar (dextrose etc) in it will be much more effective than plain creatine powder.

Creatine Ethyl Ester from Axis Labs

[Lil-King]

The creatine my friend was taking is called trac, if your not found of alot of sugar try it out. but i'm just gonna go with a after workout creatine like celltech or hyper growth.

Well this product is probably not available in your neck of the woods, but i am currently using a product called "Creagen complex creatine secretagogue" by a local company called Ultimate health, it is a high in carbs believe it or not, and is ideal for Lean bodybuilders, who dont do much yet maitain sub 10 body fat %

Is this true? So i should be looking for creatine which contains dextrose?

[bobdog63]

Yes. It's transports more effectively to your muscles.

I go the cheap route. GNC Creatine Monohydrate added to Gatorade during my workout.

[BuffforCU]

I use the GNC brand also. Bought it at Rite Aid - very cheap!

Im trying a new one called "Shredded Mass" by pinnacle. I only had it twice but so far all I can tell you is your farts will reak of death.

EAS Phosphagen HP - http://www.bodybuilding.com/store/eas/phoshp.html

Amazing product. I used it before with amazing gains and am about to use it again in conjunction to MRI No2 and Dynadrol (Legal Test jump-starter)

Tastes great too.

Any 100% pure creatine is fine. They are all about the same

[Ngo_35]

Im just trying Shredded mass by pinnacle, so far its been good with unusual mental focus and higher toleration with more weights. Maybe 10lbs increase depending on exercise.

However I warn you, your farts will reek of death. I cant bare the smell. Maybe I shouldnt take some after the work out and only before. But lemme tell you, if you wanna get back at a friend through the nastiest stank in the world. Try it out.
