Creatine

[brock_solid]

I'm just browsing through my Muscle mags and it has a list of things to buy.

There is Balance - Creatine Monohydrate - 1kg for $69.95

I might buy that, good choice?

And there is Balance - Creatine Effervescent - 1kg for $19.95, whats effervesecnt? just wondering

[Varven]

effervescent is probably pre mixed with some flavour and other overhyped substances. NOt worth paying so much extra for some taste.

Overall you will get much lower actual creatine than a monohydrate.

buy the balance creatine monohydrate. its worth it.

A Horleys product?

Creatine is just a form of proteni isn't it?

Are you guys serious, i cant if its sarcasm or not!, if i had more time id post a link, but just google it and do some research, it is most certainly NOT a form of protein.

Didn't come off as newbish as i hoped

Alright i bought Nutralife Micronised Creatine Monohydrate (250g) I went to Rebel and hummed and harrred about getting the Balance Creatine (1kg) but that was $94.95 and thats a rather large dent in my paycheck so i decided on the other one for $30. Will the creatine i bought be any good?

It will be fine. Did you check out supplementsonline? I havent looked lately but they usually have good prices and freight free etc.

[deegee]

I have never tried that brand but see no reason it would not be fine. Depends on how well you respond to the stuff I guess. Let us know

[brock_solid]

I don't like buying things off the net, had enough troubles already with trademe.

I will let you know, however i've been sick for the last 2 days, haven't had an appetite at all and tomorow i'm having my meningitis injection (2) so i will go to the gym tomorrow morning then won't be until monday before i start back into it full strength.

Wow, rebble sucks!

I bought some Nutralife Micronised CreatineMonohydrate (250g) for $25 today from Health2000, and the 1kg Balance CreatineMonohydrate was $75...

Use supplements online.. its one site I can swear upon. I think ive so far spent close to 600$ on them, i told 2 of my gym buddies, theyre regulars too now.

Ask any board member on here .. only positive experiences..!

free freight.. 24 hours delivery.. beat that!

IMO krealkalyn is the best, it doesn't bloat you and the effects are more immediate, because with normal creatine some of it ends up as waste.

ppl are questioning the same thing about kre alkalyn..because there doesn't seem to be much 3rd party testing done on it..although true about the bloat effect..but then again are we really getting enough of it?

[Oros]

Pseudonym....whats the feed-back from the Kre-Alkalyn you were trying back a whiles?

[Pseudonym]

You know, I couldn't remember whether I even liked it or not! Thank goodness I wrote it down in a supplement review...

(hint, hint to those that haven't posted a review yet) :grin:

So would you give it a re-try, or do you feel there are other creatine based products that may be superior?

[Phantomb]

In the 3 weeks I've been on Kre-Alkalyn I've added

- 7.5kg on my Bench press

- 15kg on my Squat

- 20kg on my DL

No increase in pump but my arms/legs/chest measurements have all increased by at least an inch.

Having said that I have tweaked my diet during this period so it's probably not fair to attribute all the gains to Kre-Alkalyn.

what dosage are you taking?
