Awesome for mixing with protein shakeJul 26, 2010 I'm bought this to help me live through the "Insanity" program. Seems to have done its job well.
I like how I can mix this in with a protein shake before workout and not have it change the taste. I previously had a "fruit punch" creatine drink from Walmart and that was a pain - way too sweet and had to drink it separately from my protein shake.
This is also more cost effective because the small-looking bottle has a LOT of servings.

Simple, Affordable Creatine PowderJul 25, 2010 One thing a lot of folks don't seem to realize is that you don't need a complicated, expensive product to take advantage of the wonders of Creatine. It's a simple compound, and all you need is that simple compound - you don't need it to be a serum, mixed with a bunch of flavoring, or mixed with various ingredients that will supposedly make it absorb better. Just buy a simple powder and take it with something heavy in fast-acting carbs for an insulin spike (like grape juice) or add it to your protein powder.
Optimum Nutrition excels at giving us simple products at affordable prices without a bunch of glitz and extra junk we don't need, and this is more of the same. Get a big size and this stuff will last you an incredibly long time. I do 2 months on, 1 month off, and I'm halfway through my second phase without being even close to finishing off the 2000g bottle I bought.

Good value creatine that will add to your gains when used properlyJul 17, 2010 First of all, for the money (money off for subscribing and free shipping is under 48 hours to my door from the Reno warehouse) this is best value creatine on the market.
As far as use, when properly used, ON creatine does two key things for you and does it well:
1) it allows you to get more out of your workouts more often. After being on this for the loading week only 3 days in, I already noticed I was able to get in more reps and my workouts were longer by 25% or more. In addition, this product (combined with ON Glutamine and ON Whey protein) has shortened the recovery times between my workouts by half. With that combo, and over two creatine cycles (about 7 months), you have the ability to nearly TRIPLE the reps you are doing.
2) creatine assists in hydrating muscle cells and when you hydrate cells, what happens? That's right-they get bigger. My muscle definition increased within 4 DAYS of using this and continued to increase throughout the cycle. By the time I was nearing the end of the washout phase of the cycle my muscle size did visually decrease, but not to what it was before because my gains from TRIPLE the reps had added significant mass. The nice side effect is that, while you know you are building more and more permanent muscle on this, you get a nearly immediate gratification or reward of size increase with no side effects.
As for taste and upset stomach: this is not tasteless....its actually a little like mixing salt in water and drinking it. The more water you mix it in the more the taste in minimized...but you are still aware that something is there. ONE IMPORTANT NOTE: creatine MUST be dissolved to get the full effect and the only way to do it is use hot HOT water (I use the hot side of my tap). Once dissolved you can then mix it into whatever you want. As for upset stomach....nothing has bothered me so if that happens to some, its a case by case basis.
In short: great product, great value, easy purchasing and shipping and easy to use.
Little taste, but not a problemJul 14, 2010 I use this every time before I workout. I have a lot more energy, so I don't get tired so quickly. It also helps to build muscle. There is a little taste but nothing you couldn't handle. It's not a nasty taste or any thing like that, it's a light taste. Overall it's a great product!

Its good..............but there is a taste.Jul 01, 2010 I did see good results especially if you mix it with a protein shake. It had a gritty taste to it and didnt dissolve so easily. But nonetheless, it was a great buy! I definitely suggest it to those trying to take their workout results to the next level.
