Creatine ?

[XBiker]

Hey Bro's.

I incorporated anavar in my cycle.

While doing the research for optimum dosage, etc, I see that everyone recommends taking creatine with it.

My question is this, how important is the carbohydrate transport to activate the creatine?

I am trying to keep my carbs low as my cycle will be ending soon.

I am adding 5 grams of creatine to my morning and post-workout shakes, but they only contain 10 G of carbs each serving. Is this enough? Should I bump it up to help activate the creatine?

Any input would be appreciated.

I'd bump it...You need the carbs for creatine transport

What's the minimum??

Some of these pre-mixed powders have as much as 50gs of sugar for "creatine transport." I think that's totally unnecessary.

I agree. I am trying to find the lowest amount of carbs needed to help transport and activate the creatine.

I am not sure but some people just take a glass of orange juice with it .....might work

No, i had metaform creatine and there they said citric fruits are bad for creatine absorption...

I'm not sure but can't you take Lipoic-acid, 30 minutes before you take your creatine to natureally increase your insulin sensetivity?
And by doing this it will suttle the creatine into your system.I know they put 100 mg pure serving in a lot of creatine to keep the carbs low.

You normally see people speak of grape juice....

Last night and this morning, I added a little bit of white grape juice to my shake to up the carbs and threw in the creatine.

It must be working, I'm huge.

That could just be bloating from all the mexican food!



PS- How you liking the Anavar??
