Creatine cant dissolve? Mix it with warm water. Works freaking well with my UN micronize mono last time.

I've been taking it without dissolving.... so far seems ok. no tummy upset when i'm in the gym. hmm.gif
but FF does have a supply of luke warm water/hot tea.
is mixing it with plain sugarless and milkless tea ok?
might make it more effective/faster to absorb altho i dun have the tummy upsets.

There is study showing that caffeine might blunt the effect. However, the cup of green tea or coffee is insufficient to do so. So yeah, it is fine, i took it with sugarless black coffee.

I've read that high temperatures kill off the creatine effects. Just like how liquid creatine doesn't work cuz creatine starts to denature or something the moment it gets in contact with liquid. SO you've gotta drink it fast the moment you get it

Temperature wise i did some reading as well, but cant really find a solid conclusion yet thou hehe but to be safe, use warm water. But yeah, u cant leave ur creatine for too long in liquid.

nope
tried it, didnt get really pumped up during workout.
the feel is kinda like HALF WAY THERE, hate that feeling.
i can train better without it then taking some only.

training with NO is crazy, but just the after effect sometimes felt like your body doesnt wanna stop training.

This is why. Just because you don't get tummy upset doesn't mean the creatine is working for you. Why do you think you're not getting the effect? Why do you think sup companies always stress PURE creatine, mixability, etc.

Being annoying is not breaking the rule. Being spammy is.

I've came across this 'caffeine blunts creatine' statement a handful of times, but then I look at top pre-workout NO boosters like NO XPLODE and Superpump and find a good blend of caffeine and (more than one type) creatine..*shrugs*

nope, but I did get some CEE.

Will get on that next week or so since my creatine mono finished last week.
I wanna get all the creatine mono out of my system first so I can see CEE at work and if its any different(better?).

Creatine Mono is cheap and does the job. The others are overpriced. NO is nitric oxide.
