Have a post workout shake within 45minutes. Spend your $$$ on a dvd instead! -------------- "A will finds a way, failure is not an option" Ivan carivan@freetrainers.com Montreal Canada

(sorry I'm bored) well, if u want my opinion, I'd say anything's worth a try, you may not see permanent results, but U'll get a bit of a boost from tha creatine durin ur workouts (or so my friends find... me - i think it's witchcraft HA HA jokes) no, I'm too lazy and I cant be bothered to spend money on it. Meh. -------------- x-Aki-x

oscarg Posts: 198 Joined: 2004/04/05	2004/06/24, 02:25 PM I would say Creatine Monohydrate, not the ones with too much sugar though. And drink it with carbs (33-93 grams of simple sugars).
bigandrew Posts: 5,146 Joined: 2002/10/21	2004/06/24, 07:42 PM Yea exactly, just pure creatine, mix it with gator aid.......... Now with this said, I saw gains, but nothing magical about it, I gained about 3 or 4 lbs. If you take it drink plenty of water, about 1 gallon a day. ONly diet will build your muscle, creatine just helps with the fuel. KInda like a high octance gasonline, makes your car perform better faster, and better gas milage, but the engine is the same.
