As long as adequate calories are provided with protein and fats, you don't need that many carbs.

I've gone from 200 lbs with 38 inch waist to 225 lbs with 37 inch waist.  16 weeks so far.



good job man

I am trying to bulk up with a keto style diet,

Is creatine worth taking on this type of diet?


1) carbohydrates are needed for insulin response. Insulin shuttles nutrients into cells. No carbs, low insulin response.
2) If you are bulking on a keto diet  ::) i'd imagine you would be getting enough creatine from all the red meat you are eating. You don't need any. Enjoy blowing out your kidneys.

In a nutshell, no. Creatine should be taken with good amount of carbs to elicit the full effect of it.

What do you suggest for PCT, do you think Nitrotech is ok?

I would recommend a handful of vandyl sulfate tabs,  you don't want to do anything too crazy.  This guy is still a little wet behind the ears.

good idea.

I also heard that chrome is a great fatburner, would you stack it with carnitine? I fear i might lose too much muscle on this stack.

As long as you take it pre workout with alka seltzer tabs you will be okay.

Does it guarantee 9671% more muscle gains then the 'regular' over the counter version of cell-tech ??
