Creatine Monohydrate has never bloated me up. The problem with a lot of brands is they lace their shit with sugar, and just dont tell you, so they can make more money.

I personally use almost solely Universal Nutrition (and Animal, a sub group of them) and NOW Foods and truenutrition.com (I have a 1000 gram tub of leucine, 1000 gram tub of Creatine Mono, and I had karboload which is ****ing amazing for postwo). For supps from Uni, I use Ultra Whey Pro, Ultra Iso Whey, Shock Therapy (holy shit awesome prewo), Torrent (postwo) and a few misc things like fish oil etc.

Do you guys take in a lot of EFAs? I take 1 pack of Animal Omega (which is 7 grams) with breakfast and 3 grams of Fish Oil with the rest of the meals, and my skin has tightened up/smoothed out. I'd take 2 packs of Omega which would be cool because then I'd just hit everything I need with 2 packs, but Omega is 20 bucks for 30 packs, so...

I use MCT Oil (basically distilled coconut oil so you dont have all the carbs) and EVOO to cook with.

but around 1 gram/lb seems perfectly sufficient. 1.5 is definitely a waste. 0.5 is definitely not enough.

Yeah, I don't really do my bodyweight, I like to stick to LBM because I'm still trying to lose.




Back workout today, my trainer is beating the unholy hell out of my lats because my traps are so overdeveloped that when I try to flex my lats, I just flex my traps. He's trying to get the motions down so that when I go through the poses, I actually pull them out: it just hurts like a sonavabitch.
