anyone use this? if so what are your gains, and input will greatly be appreciated.

Its a creatine transport system, so if you lift hard you should see some muscle gains. Along with that you will retain water and feel bloated, may have upset stomach and muscle cramps.

well i lift for about 100 mins a day, have a good protein intake, and celltech as well, hopefully i will see some gains

100 minutes is definitely overkill, less is more sometimes in this sport.

I'd try to keep my workouts to about 45-60min, after a hour your testorone levels take a big drop.

word to big bird - 60 min is about the max unless you are on Vitamin T.

does anyone know where i can buy dextrose, do they sell it at walmart, or stop and shop, or how about gnc?

r3mix3r

Ya you can buy it at gnc, or any sport nutrition store. I dont think Walmart would have it.

Why do you need dextrose? The celltech already has 75g per serving, which is more then enough.

Another creatine you can try like celltech is phosphagen hp, its made by EAS. I had great gains using that, and it has about 1/2 the sugar. And it's also about 1/2 the price.

You might want to look into the new creatine on the market, I dont really have anything to back it up since I havent tried it yet. Its called CEE. Creatine Ethyl Ester. Its suppose to be alot more potent, absorbed much more effectively, and not cause the creatine bloat like monohydrate. In a few weeks, I'm going to try some out. It also doesn't have to be mixed with sugar.

But just try celltech or phosphagen hp out and let us know how it goes. You should definitely put on 5-7lbs. Some people really react good to creatine, others doesn't do much at all. Keep us posted.

Ya, the first year of working out every workout was like a triatholon. I would work out for easily 2 hrs, and still looking to do more. Then i realized I was overtraining, and wasting time. Now I'm in and out quick, and its alot more effective.

I thought 20 sets of bi's was better then 9, but my arms have told me they like 9 sets better

FiftyFive

well if you mix creatine monohydrate with dextrose it is essentially the same as celltech, but you can make twice as much for half the price

i think i mioght try the eas phosphagen, celltech is way to expensive

r3mix3r

Ya I was gonna say that, The best thing to do is just get straight creatine mono and mix it with dextrose.

Back in the day when I first started, I got a big thing of creatine mono powder for cheep, and mixed it with grape juice after workout.

BTW, If you want just go to your local supermarket, and buy the GATORADE mixing powder. Its pretty much pure dextrose

FiftyFive

i think im just gonna run to gnc and get 5 2 pund bags and the 1000g of creatine monohydrate, 4 packs of kool aid and ill have my own little "celltech" supply, should work out good

the total price of the creatine monohydrate, the dextrose, the kool aid come out to about $35 and thats for 100 servings, much better than celltech $60+ 7lb tub with onloy 35 servings

here is the info on the homemade celltech: http://www.bodybuildingforyou.com/cr...h-homemade.htm

2 words: too expensive

you pay more for marketing than for what's in the can...

FiftyFive

my friend gave me a full 7lb tub for free, the only thing is it says best by 01/05 do you think that will be a problem or is it ok to still take it?

FiftyFive

anyone?
