trying out some creatine? suggestions please

[bigjoe3636]

So ive been using just jp8 and then about half hour later purple wraath, then the gym an hour after i took the jp8...then protein after...seen good results but want to try a creatine product..ive been thinking of picking up some green magnitude, havent really used much creatine before, thats fine to use with jp8 and purple wraath right? and when should i take the green mag..mix with purple wraath and drink about a half hour before gym and through workout like i do with the purple wraath? or drink it separately?

 

[searl12]

I would use it after, I have tried it before and during and after, and I seem to respond better to it after my workout, stick with your NO preworkout supp than use the green mag after...for the price/servi ngs its a great deal in my opinion.

Love Controlled labs.

 

[aflexaholic]

Have you used Creatine before? I would just grab a jar of Creatine Monohydrate and take it before and after the workout.

Green Mag is a great product as well though.

 

[searl12]

agreed, some creapure will serve u just fine. 13.99 for over a month supply

 

[jumpshot903]

Green mag is great and 80 servings for like 30$ is great i honestly dont feel like i make a dent in my green mag at all.

Green Magnitude the BEST of the BEST

NOT anabolic switch by MRI.

gave me the shits real bad for a solid 4 days.

 

[bigjoe3636]

havent really used creatine before just heard that green magnitude was a popular and affordable product...id like to try it out, last time i tried creatine i wasnt training as hard and it didnt work out well..i had tried out cell mass...now that im always in the gym and lifting on a schedule and seeing results id like to go on it again and try it out jw what people thought

bulk creatine mono

.02 cents

 

[Chubbinmuffin]

I've tried numerous types of creatine and Green Mag has my vote.

 

[msucurt]

i agree....take green mag /white flood..........damn good combo

 

[merph]

bulk creatine mono

.02 cents

+1 on that but IMO it taste awful. Green mag taste surprisingly good and it is not too expensive. If you can stand the taste go with basic mono its cheaper and it works.

 

[fightbackhxc]

I have never had a problem with taste, I take a tbsp shove it in my moouth and wash down with anything. Just kinda tastes like a mouthful of sand lol.

Green Mag is definitely a tastier option

funny man, not many of us can handle that, but I do it the same. Anyone ever power down a preworkout powder like that? its wild!

yeah Ultima lol.

 

[hl80]

Green MAG is good, but I use SizeOn on workout days intra w/IntraBolic, and creatine mono (Prolab Creapure) off-days.

 

[searl12]

Ya you cant really go wrong with size on , green mag or just plain creapure, ive used all and so far I think size on is my favourite, but for the $ green mag is a very close 2nd

Have you checked out Anabolic Innovations Essentials?

It's a powder that consists of Creatine Monohydrate, Beta Alanine, BCAAs and vitamins. It has 60 servings and can be double dosed if desired. Oh, and it runs about $37

Thats a good idea too. Lots of bang for the buck.

 

[stxnas]

Definitely a great value.

There are a lot of great choices though!

 

[searl12]

I actually might have to look at that now.

Why arent you guys up north in Canada?

all we get is frckn BSN, GASPARI,MUSCLETECH....

I just last week finally found Green mag, it only took like 4 years for it to come to Canada, and obviously I can order online but In this economy I feel it my duty to support the little guys (Popeyes)

THERE IS A MASSIVE MARKET FOR NEW SUPPLEMENTS AND IDEAS UP HERE..............

All you american companies need to do is expand and count the $$$$

I would gladly do the legwork free of charge if anyone of these newer companies wants me too o prove how much$ is being lossed, canucks are tired of the same companies....and paying out the a s s for them....

a tub of Size on is 89.99$......with the gold card.....need I say more about how frckn tired we are? and ordering online isnt as much better as one would think, after S&H plus exchange were still getting killed.

What supp stores are in Canada other than Popeyes?

Well unfortunately GNC has a big chunl of the business, but we have Sport Nutrition Depot and Popeyes, which are actually getting bigger and bigger and soon I hope they destroy GNC and put them out of business.

A couple of Vitamin Worlds and thats about it to be honest. Popeyes sells everything 10$cheaper than gnc, and thats with that crappy gold card.

cheers

 

[Big Lee]

I always get best results taking it after the workout. Cheers.

I'm not sure if I can do anything about this, but I can defintely try

 

[bigjoe3636]

i think im gonna go with greenmag...should i just get the WF/greenmag combo from the store? i still have some jp8 left that i could take it with..and if i got the combo is it best to drink them separately like wf and then the green mag at the gym or mix them beforehand?

 

[Chubbinmuffin]

WF and GM combo would be good. I mixed my WF with half a scoop of GM and then took another half scoop after my workout.

neovar recomp. haven't used anything better. using cre-02 now which has been decent

neovar recomp. haven't used anything better. using cre-02 now which has been decent

glad to see some support in here! It is good to know people think highly of Neovar Recomped, thanks Jsp0785! Neovar Recomped is Capped creatine mono hydrate with nutrient repartioners in it (similar to the effects of Anabolic pump and the like). It is convienient for on-the-run since it is capsule form. None the less these are all great choices, but my overall concensus is to stay away from anything, but monohydrate. It is proven to be effective...

Both NeoVar Recomped and Cre-02 would be the top two creatine products that I would recommend anyone. They are both awesome products, both having nutrient repartitioning effects (as well as a couple of other individual effects).

However, if you "haven't really used creatine before", perhaps start out with straight regular creatine monohydrate.

Prolab Creatine Monohydrate + Grape Juice and you're good to go. You may also want to add in some BA in there as well. (beta-alanine)
