Input on Creatine serums

[blinddeafmute]

Was looking into Creatine Serum's and/or Shakes.

I notice a lot of people drink the shakes. I am currently taking TwinLab Creatine Fuel pills, but not seeing results. I dont think it is absorbing well.

I saw creatine serum and it said it is absorbed instantly so no pre-loading and it only needs to be taken directly before workouts. Anyone have any suggestions? Is it better? How does it taste?

Is it worth it?

it tastes great but will yield no results...

better off mixing cool-aid in water and taking it preworkout

take the powder... its great.. do a search for dosing and cycling

I took a liquid creatine one time. It was sublingual so you just had to squirt a dropper under my tongue. It tasted like candy. No loading phase. I never felt like it was doing anything.

If you're going to take creatine, which I believe works if taken correctly, get regular creatine monohydrate and drink it with grape or apple juice. Don't waste your money on the fancy stuff.

Im glad I got input before buying it.

Can I expect any results from the powders, or should I just stick with my diet for now and forget the creatine?

Any suggestions there?

Would help if we knew your age, stats, and goals.

Research has shown that creatine has an incredibly hard time staying viable while suspended in a liquid for any length of time. Just by the powder bro.

It's as useless as argent! Seriously, from what I have read and seen, it's as useless as tits on a bull.

Gymtime,

age 25
Height 6'3"
Weight 163.4
BF measured 13% this morning

Im trying to bulk up right now. Eating everything I can. Starting a diet soon that has 3200 calories, and 239g of protien. Might adjust it a little to get more of each depending on weight gains.

Very new to this, started about a month ago with a gym membership and a lot of research on the web. I have noticed changes already just in my quads. Nothing else is noticeable visually yet.

Got any suggestions or ideas, im all ears.

6' 3" and 164lbs? Jesus Christ boy....how you're managing 13% bf out of that is amazing....

Anyway, your main source of growth with be your diet. Creatine will help you I think, but remember, it's a supplement, not a steroid so don't expect miracles. And again, stick with the regular powder. It's cheaper and works as well or better than other more fluffed up creatine products.

I hate to agree with my muscularly challenged friend twice in one week, but he's right. Buy the powder, the liquid is useless. No one has ever been able to stabilize creatine in a liquid state for an indefinite amount of time. Its actually a very short time that it will break down, similar to glutamine, but not as fast.

In my opinion your calories are too low bro. I would actually spend the creatine money on food, and enjoy the natural newbie growth until you really need creatine.

I dont think its right, but its what my scales say. When I got my gym membership it measured 9 there. I sure as hell dont look like 13, that is for sure. It comes from about 5 years of plain laziness.

I think I will just stick to food for now. I would like to get up to 200#.

BTW,

I weighed almost 190 last summer. I went thru some extreme marital problems and lost close to 40 lbs. I didnt eat hardly anything for about 2 months. When I started gaining weight back, I wasnt working out, so it went to fat.

Im really new to this game, just getting started.

When/if you decide to buy some creatine, the cheapest I have found is from Kilosports.com. You can buy 2 kilos of it for under $50. That includes shipping.
