I started a post a while back about creatine in my protien and said i also had cell-tech and everyone jumped on and said its garbage; so does anyone have any suggestions for a different protien and creatine? I know im just asking for sellers to eat me alive, but i guess ill just weed through and make the best choice i can! Best protein and best creatine?.....and does nitric oxide do anything for gains really? i think its crap

Hey superman, do yourself a favor and don't use any protein or creatine supps at all for  6  months!! Years ago I bought into all that crap until I read Franco Columbu's book on nutrition. You will be better off eating steak, chicken, fish etc.  Don't forget lots of fresh veggies and you will grow like a weed!! If you must take supplements, do some research on top quality vitamin companies. A high quality multi-vitamin and some non-acidic vitamin c is all you need to help you utilize your food better and stay healthy. Seriously, I have been lifting since the seventies and still going strong! just try it for 6 months, put your hard earned money towards good food and the vitamins and your body will thank you. Take care, Barretta.

Everyone calling Cell-Tech garbage is a bit strong.  It's really not.  I think what everyone intends to imply is that it's highly overpriced for what it is and they market it with all kinds of grandiose promises and images (as if Jay Cutler got big on it ).  Read the creatine sticky and draw your own conclusions.

Spamming is not allowed, so no one should be trying to sell you anything.  Read/search the protein threads.  There's dozens of them.  "Best" is a subjective term.  Draw your own conclusions/make your own decisions.

just buy some creatine mono bulk and mix it w/ either dextrose or gatorade/powerade powder and consume toward end of w/o or post w/o and add in the protein shake if you think you need extra macros

  Just take your creatine with dextrose. There is no evidence that any creatine supplement works better than just creatine with dextrose. Taking it with Arginine for nitric oxide is stupid. First, the conversion rate of Arginine to nitric oxide is limited, and second even if all the Arginine were converted, it wouldn't all get in your muscle cells because the entrance of any compound into muscles is regulated as well.

I don't know if a mod is allowed to recommend a good creatine but nobody yet on this post will name drop for me! I thank you for the comment but GOOD CREATINE NAME PLEASE. NAME DROP, IT'S O.K. I have lifted on and off for the past 11 years and have only taken cell-tech and six star. I recently in the past two years started doing research and just stuck with hustle tech only because it has given me results and everything is whey overpriced<get it, whey>.Just want to know a good reliable moderatly priced protein and creatine. Oh and iv'e also tried ON procomplex and a german creatine back in the day called KAIZEN.Thanks, lata

Okay.  Once again,  based on this post you're talking about something completely different than what I thought you were (in your PM).  First of all creatine is not even close to a steriod (which is what I thought you were referring to).  Creatine is a natural substance and totally legal. Something you can purchase at any vitamin and supplement store.  Read the sticky. Creatine is creatine is creatine. period.  Just like aspirin is aspirin.  Sure - it might come in different forms, tablets, capsules, gel caps, buffered, etc., but it's still aspirin.  The active ingredient you're looking for is CREATINE MONOHYDRATE.

So when you were asking about sourcing, etc.,  I thought you were referring to actual real steriods, which are illegal.  Do not bother with a site like the one you PM'd me.  Just stick with the reputable ones like bodybuilding.com or any of the other ones the guys around here recommend and you won't get ripped off like you have in the past.

You guys who shop on line:  What is your favorite site and what brand do you prefer?

and yes of course creatine is legal and not a steroid, I was just saying muscle-tech markets it like it's legal steroids.

  I am sorry. I am not allowed to give you names because that constitutes advertising. A poster giving the name of a product is ok - as long as he doesen't recommend the same company always as that would indicate he is working for them and thus he loses his posting priviledges -, but moderators cannot do this. This comes straight from Ron, the guy who owns this board. Imagine if mods started to name names. The companies would hire internet mods to advertise their products. A mod must be completely impartial. His job is just to stop trolling/baiting/catty wars, etc.
