agreed...as for brands just get some of the plain monohydrate in a big container(it should be fairly cheap). You can take it with some sugar and that will work the same as the stuff with the transports.

I've tried powder mixed with sugar and a transdermal creatine but the best still for me, is the twinlabs creatine fizz fuel. its efervescent. I do not get gas from it. or runny shits. most powder creatine gives me some smelly swamp ass. with the fizz fuel i put on lots of water weight. it works on me the best. and i can pound it in. i can go as high as 30 grams a day during loading phase and still don't get gas from it. cant do that with powder. Everybody absorbs it a little bit differently so if i were you i would try a few different things. if you don't gain 5 to 10 pounds of water weight by the time you're done with your loading phase then you should try the fizz fuel. you may have the same problem i had with powder.

The reason creatine makes you shit is the fact that the molecule itself will not break completely down in COLD water, creatine is best taken, broken down, and absorbed in WARM to HOT water... I know this is not the most delightfull sounding thing, but you will see a HUGE improvement in the amount of sand at the bottom of your shaker and or glass, and a HUGE improvement in the frequency of your uncontrolable ass droppings as well.....
effervescent is the shit! I say try FSI nutrition. "Creatine clear"
is the name of the product. no sugar. sure, there is 233mg of Sodium, but i'll take that over sugar any day because the absorption of using sugar is one thing, but assimilation with the help of sodium is an other. not mention that sugar is not that good for you.

Hot water huh? Never tried that with powder but i will try that right now. Still the only thing i worry is that being a powder, i think i digest the powder instead of it getting into my muscles where the effervescent formula seems to get the creatine into my muscles almost immediatly. I can really feel the creatine taking effect with effervescent.

You know if this creatine clear really works that would be great for poeple who have low bloos sugar. hypoglycemics. most of them cannot take creatine because it throws their insulin way off. i know a few people who have this problem. i think i will try that creatine clear. if it works i'll have them give it a try. Thanks

I think any effervescent creatine will work as long as they are not lying about the mgs contained in each packet. Twinlabs fizz fuel has been tested by Ironman's Research team. It proves out and did exactly what they claimed it to do for me anyway. I love it. Can't say one bad thing about it except its price which isn't so bad once you get passed the loading phase.
One option to get around that is do what i do. take only two packets a day of fizz fuel and make up the difference during the loading phase of cheap powder creatine. That should help out on cost.

What is the best way to take it? Grape juice,Gatorade, or what. Still not sure.

By itself I like to use grapejuice, otherwise I just put it in a protein shake after I work out. I usually throw some frozen fruit in the shake too.

Wow your only 15? I can't say for sure yes or no if its wise to cycle creatine. In my opinion, i would not think creatine would be harmfull to you as long as you are cycling it and also involved in some sort of physical activity. Creatine is also naturally found in the body and also in certain foods. At 15 you should only have 5 exercises per workout and keep it under an hour. 6 weeks of creatine and then take a few off. Like anything its good to let your body go back to its normal ways.
Loading phase is 20-25 grams a day for 5 days. Then just 10 grams a day for maintanance. Fizz Fuel is a 5gram packet. Split them up throughout the day.

What impressed me most was the american stamina. That is packed bro. if it really contains what they say it does and the delivery is good, that is an awsome product. I couldn't find a price on it though. The next best thing would be the creatine clear but that will run you just about a buck a packet.
The higher power creatine, if that is pure creatine monohydrate at a 1000 grams, thats 200 servings. Awsome deal. But watch out with powder though. No matter what powder i take even with the hot water trick above, i still get swamp ass. At 15, unless your parents are sponsoring all your supps, i would go with the higher power because of the quantity and the price. If you get stinky swamp ass, next time definately try efervescent. Creatine Clear.
