Crazy Muscle Creatine Monohydrate Powder, 5000mg Premium 3X ThreeAtine Pre Workout Mass Gainer, High Absorption Easy to Take Powder Optimum Performance for Men & Women, 30 Servings

I'm a training powerlifter. I've used creatine even when I was in freshman year of high school. I wanted to try this new kind and see if there's any difference to it, so I decided to start from scratch and cycle off of creatine for few months before trying this one. This is my report on the muscle increase, performance experience, as well as the loading phase.When it comes to Increasing muscle size by drawing water to your muscles, this stuff works just as well as any, which is, almost no visible difference unless you're less than 10% body fat. But you need to understand that creatine helps you get bigger by being able to increase your work volume. Which brings me to the next criteria.I have to give this to them. This creatine makes me feel like I'm working under my strength. My 1RM is still the same, but instead of hitting 365 lbs for five reps on Squat, I'm able to hit this weight for SEVEN REPS. I was able to increase my work volume from 5475 (3 sets of 5 reps at 365 lbs.) to 7665! (3 sets of 7 reps at 365 lbs.) What does this mean? Well, being able to do more volume over time means faster strength gains, more muscle gains, and a bigger 1RM. I'm confident that with this creatine I'll be able to increase my 1RM faster than without it.The MOST SURPRISING THING I have noticed that with this form of creatine is that it's SUPER EASY TO LOAD. Practically zero loading phase. I think it has to do with the fast acting creatine it has in it, but when I take this creatine (first thing in the morning for me, but it really doesn't matter what time you take it) and go workout around noon, I feel like I've been loading for days already!If you don't know what loading is, it's when you take extra dose of creatine the first week to speed up your muscles to saturate with the creatine. Creatine builds up in your system. It usually takes between five days to a week to fully saturate your muscles if you load. If you take regular amount from day one, you won't feel the full benefits of of creatine until about a week and a half to two weeks later when you're finally saturated. I tried just using recommended amounts (because these pills are HUGE) from day one, and man, this stuff kicks in super fast.If you have a lot of experience with creatine, I suggest you to try this kind because it will be really helpful when you have to cycle back on after you've cycled off. If you're a beginner to creatine, I really recommend using this one to feel the full benefits of creatine in a very short amount of time. This is really where this creatine shines over all others I've tried.

I take my weight measurement each day in the morning. The day after I took 3 of these pills (5 grams), my weight increased far more than any normal variation in weight. It's confirmation that the creatine is being absorbed, because it's exactly what I expect to see. I went off of it, and my weight came down to baseline. Then I took another dose, and it went right back up. There's no doubt it's creatine, and it's being absorbed well.The only thing negative about this is that the pills are large, and some are going to gag on them. Everyone else is saying the same thing. They're chalky, too, so they don't slide well down the throat.But I'd rather swallow 3 large pills than 5 or 6 smaller ones like in other products, me personally.

So far so good

Reduced soreness after workout & boost energy during workout if consume with carb b4 workout . I'd recommend

I wish there were a place to ask questions about this product. I purchased it, but am not convinced that pills this big really get broken down all that well in the digestive system. (I remember seeing a study about really big vitamins that did not). Anyway, I have them now, and I don’t want to waste my money, but probably won’t purchase these again unless something amazing starts happening… I had wanted to ask if anyone had tried breaking them up into pieces for possibly better absorption, but as it is, I’ve been taking 2 a day as they are. I haven’t really been working out consistently enough at this point to tell a major difference, the results I am seeing may or may not have anything to do with these. Again, it’s not like I’ve been hitting the gym prior to these enough to have a ‘before taking these pills’ to compare it to, but I have taken a powder form of Creatine in the past successfully and had thought if these DO work as well that it would be more convenient to have the pills than the powder. These really are huge as far as pills go, but I guess I’m not one that is terribly bothered by that part, I just don’t like the idea of it just sitting around in my body not being broken down. (Not saying that is happening, I honestly don’t know, and can’t ask what you guys or the company has to say about that on this platform). Anyway, there’s my opinion on these for what it’s worth. I have had some digestive ‘turmoil’ but that could also be because I’ve upped my protein consumption a lot. I am going to try sawing these bad boys up into pieces though… but more so in hopes that they absorb better than because of the size. If I change my perception of these, I’ll be sure and let you all know. ;)And yeah, they really are bigger than the size of my pinky finger, last knuckle to tip. :)

Great product. Less muscle loss due to diet and more energy throughout the day. Will order again.
