you want to make sure to buy powder over pills whenever its availiable
you want to make sure to buy powder over pills whenever its availiable its powder thats in the caps tho
true but now your body has to digest the caps in order to get to the powder and use it, as opposed to a powder taken via liquid
eh...i would stay away from monohydrate creatines.....its water retention, so basically your going to get bigger and stronger, but when your off it you will get smaller cause the water will be drained. while your on it, you will be sorta "squishy" from it.
you wont be as small or the size you were before you started...but you wont keep the size you had while on it.
but you will get stronger.

creatine ethyl ester is decent. Cellmass and Size On are two popular creatine supplements.

but you will get stronger. Well seen as Creatine Monohydrate is the most widely used and researched form of creatine, I think it is a solid product, and not everyone gets the associated bloating, CEE is also good, but some people claim it doesn't work as well as monohydrate, from what I've read I'd go and but plain Creatine Mono, of the Creapure variety which is the best type. I believe Prolab and Reflex creatine is creapure branded.
There's also Creatine Malate etc. but these are usually found in creatine formulas such as CellMass and SizeON.
I use those same capsules, However they don't suggest a cycle period. So I usually use them for 2-3 weeks then take a week off, is that cycle alright or do i need to change it any?

cycles are imperative.
I dunno if these were suppose to do this but last night my whole body went numb and started sweating
I dunno if these were suppose to do this but last night my whole body went numb and started sweating If that continues stop using them. I'd take the equivalent of 3grams in caps half hour before workout, and 3 grams after. It's best to digest them with dextrose or similar, so lucazade or any sports drink is good.

cool cheers No probs, if you want to up the grams of creatine, but the should be fine. Creating makes me feel bloated so you might want to take it an hour before workout, if thats the case.
Off topic but whats you bebo? noticed the pics of your supps came from bebo
I'm taking some creatine capsules too now, but I don't think they're creatine monohydrate, rather kre-alkyln?
Sorry if that sounds absolutely dumb, I have no idea - this is the first type of creatine I've ever had. The label claims no cycle, no loading, etc.
They're called "Greenridge Kre-Alkyln". I'd post a link but not sure if I'm allowed to.

water retention is a side effect of creatine monohydrate why are you guys posting when you don't know wat you're talking about
i think that powerade has citric acid in which causes creatine monohydrate to become unstable - but it should be ok because they're in caps (btw i have used the creatine caps you're talking about)
hope this helps
