Switching from Cell-Tech

Ive been takin Cell-Tech for the last 3 months. I am happy with the results, and the price doesnt bother me. It's time for me to cycle to a different brand of creatine though. I know most people here say Cell-Tech sucks anyway, so what product/brand would be good for me to use now. I'm thinkin about mri's CE-2. Thanks.

You said in the other thread you're already taking NO-Xplode. Why do you need another creatine?

If you're willing to pay for MRI's CE2, though, apparently that's the one to get (Kabuki, I talked to one of the four judges from my county yesterday about CE2 and a bunch of other supplements-, he works out a lot- and he said he also noticed a major difference..."a bit pricey", he added).

NO-Xplode one has lk 3 grams. and i take it pre workout. I take the Cell-Tech after, but only 5 grams, not 10. I think i will go to the CE-2.

Who told you that?

Also, you don't need more than 2-5g per day. The stuff I've been reading lately suggests that taking even 2 grams without any break can build toxicity levels. Loading is bogus.

Sigh, at this thread 3 points real fast

WTF why are you taking cell tech!??!@?!@?@?#@#?@E

I heard its 1 gram per serving on another forum from someone who called BSN, another reason they are able push there mass stack.

Where are all the seasoned posters, ive noticed a steady decline in posts replaced with xyience questions.

You don't need 3 bottles of CE-2 at upwards of $70 a-pop.

If you ask me, in-general, Creatine is an overstated and over-used supplement. But guys love the shit so there's not any point to opposing. However, Mick made the smartest assessment here.

If you're taking NO-Explode, you do not need another creatine. Here is why:

1) NO-Explode contains the AKG Creatine (if I'm not mistaken, this is off the top of my head), which is already more potent than the monohydrate. 3g of AKG Creatine > 10g of the monohydrate creatine in Cell-Tech.

2) NO-Explode already contains the benefits of Nitrous boosting as well. So, in that one supplement you're getting increased hydration AND blood-flow to your muscles. There's not a need to pump anymore fluid than that and what you drink in a day to your muscles unless you're specifically endurance training, I don't know if you compete, but if you're just trying shit out my guess is no or you wouldn't even be willing to so freely experiement.

I don't know if you knew, but BSN makes a compliment Product to the NO-Explode called Cell-Mass, which is an Esterfied Creatine. Considering each Company makes their line so you can tentatively use everything at once, BSN would have you use that.

Um, no?

Creatine isn't a diuretic, man, in fact it has the opposite effect. There's something else going on here.
