CREATINE MONOHYDRATE

[trainlikeadog]

hey guys, i just ran out of Jack3d yesterday so time to go supp shopping...anyway im trying to gain weight so that means having a shake with all kinds of shit about 30 mins before my workout. because of this it makes a pre workout pointless as you have them on an emptyish stomach. thinking of just getting some creatine?? any opinions?

[PeterDolan]

Countless studies backing up monohydrate so why not be another tick on the stat sheet

[trainlikeadog]

thanks Pete. so you reckon diet + whey + creatine + BCAA's is allgood? what else??

[PeterDolan]

There's a shit load of different things you can take (that actually work) but maybe just add glutamine. I wouldn't add too many things at once so you can see how each individual thing works for you and you can draw your own conclusions

[mike27]

good diet + good multi vit + omegas + whey and dextrose + creatine mono

caesin can be added too for pre-bed

[PeterDolan]

I find if I add fats to my last meal it holds me over enough but I've never gone with casein so dunna if my gains would be better or not.

I'll start another thread so I don't hijack another thread haha

Yeah definitely agree with PD, don't go on a mad spree until ya tried things individually. Imo Mike27 got it down packed. Except i cut out the creatine my body just doesnt like the stuff.

Thought you were referring to yourself in the third person for a second :roll: haha

Alot of people get the nasty "creatine bloat", all ya gotta do is get a micronized creatine monohydrate

Sorry to hijack this post but to gain mass is this creatine a good choice? http://www.punchsupplements.co.nz/suppl ... atine.html

and what is dextrose used for, i am told should use it?

:clap:

[mike27]

dextrose is a simple carb to replinsih what you've 'spent' during ur workout

so u take it pwo with ur protein. also helps get the protein into ur system

Take the creatine post-workout.
