    After i run my pct i was planning on taking some type of creatine but not sure which one is the best. Creatine has gotten confusing to me and i just wanna hear from you guys what you think. Creatines i have tried are BSN Cell Mass and Muscle Tech's Cell Tech. I just want something that works.

    I've tried Gaspari Nutrition's Size On (lemon Ice flavor) and it was pretty good. I'm actually getting ready to start up w/ creatine again as well and I'm going to go w/ Controlled Labs Green MAG. I've heard good things about it so I thought I should give it a try.

    Creatine Monohydrate.

    This is the only thing which has been scientifically shown time and time again that it WORKS!!! (as opposed to the hearsay of someone saying "I used Creatine Product X and it works great.")

    Anabolic Xtreme is currently working on a creatine-based product; however, I will refuse to call it "just" creatine, as it is way much more.

    There's a lot of talk about creatine ethyl ester, but it seems to be all speculation or theory. Sinner's right, the best creatine is the monohydrate.

    I'm looking forward to trying the AX creatine. Is it still due out in January?

    My only problem with creatine mono is the absorption in the intestines. It will sit in the intestines before being absorbed in the bloodstream. Which can cause problems like bloat or cramps for people who don't absorb creatine mono very well. Because creatine pulls in water (as it does in muscle cells), it can pull water into the intestines

    Creatine gluconate (Size on) which is comprised of creatine bonded to glucose. This combination improves creatine’s intestinal absorption because it’s absorbed in a manner similar to regular glucose, a fast-digesting carb. The glucose also allows the creatine to dissolve well when mixed in water and helps it enter muscle cells by increasing insulin release.

    SizeON is very good. Green MAGnitude is good. But AX's new creatine will be off the heezy!

    Not trying to bash taking plain creatine mono but for me personally I have had better results w/ Size On than regular creatine mono. Although I am certain the AX creatine will blow all other forms out of the water!

    Mono is best absorbed through the stomach. Try taking on an empty stomach and chasing with some simple carbs if need be.

    The volumization of creatine is not hydroscopicity, but rather as more and more aminos get stored in the sarcoplasm, water is needed to maintain fluidity (otherwise it will oversaturate, form solids, and your muscle will be proper f***ed).

    As a pure creatine supplement, look no further than mono.

    Size on, Green Mag, the AX creation (actual name pending), and I think MAN makes a pretty solid one (Clout?) are all creatine-based products, however there is WAY MORE to them than "just" creatine.

    Never tired creatine mono w/ WMS. That probably would have the same affect as Creatine Gluconate. If I'm not mistaken I believe torrent has WMS in it.

    This subject could go on forever. I hate creatine only because when I swallow the powder it makes me puke... its a mental thing, its like swallowing dirt to me. But I have gotten great results with Creaform, I just mix it in the last few swallows of my Xtend / EAA mix after my workout.

    Yeah i know there is WAY more to them than just creatine mono. But again for me personally if it was between just plain creatine mono or another form such as size on or green mag. I would go w/ size on or green mag. But when the AX stuff is released than there is no question which one I'm going to go w/....AX all the way!! :yes:


    Haha this topic could go on forever. I was just giving my personal opinion on what has worked best for me. B)

    Gotta side with you on this one qlt. I think personal experiences should count alot, because if you have enough statements/reviews and they are positive there`s really something to it right? And I guess I must mention, Gasparis Sizeon has monohydrate in it in addition to the gluconate. Maybe thats whats makes it so good? Hehyh :P

    I had some really good results with sizeon, and I will use it again. I dont think I`ve done pure monohydrate since 2003. Never liked it. For reasons mentioned above.

    But I guess we all agree about one thing; when AX delivers its creatine, there will only be one! Im soo excited, and I just cant hide it :woot:
