creatine

i use gnc's megacreatine..isthis better or worse than creatine monohydrate powder. the megacreatine says you dont have to go thru a loading phase...is it as effective?

[Shao-LiN]

I imagine the ingredient in it is creatine monohydrate. But loading phase is not really needed for any creatine.

It's not better or worse it is Creatine w/ carbs and or other supplements. Like ALA or Taurine. Homebrew is a cheap way out but it also assure you that you are getting exactly what you put into each glass.

As far as loading goes, there are different opinions on doing a loading cycle. I did it. It won't hurt you.

IMHO, loading phases are crap that just make you waste your money cause you consume 4x the amount you need. I take 5g post workout and that's it. Non on days off, no loading phase, nothing. But I agree with AJ, there are different opinions out there. I just think most aren't right.
