i like vpx as a company but i have no clue on BANG

its not pratical first off...................its creatine in RTD (ready to drink) form. by that i mean money wise.......

you should cycle creatine............product like xtend you dont need too, that can be a staple in your supplement stash.

This has gone from "food" to "supplements"

From what I've read and been told creatine should only be used to bulk. Once I've bulked up then lighter weights with more reps to tone muscle and cutthe creatine.

youre gonna get different views on this........

imo, it really comes more down to diet............

but if i was doing a serious cut nah i wouldnt be on creatine.........some good whey isolate an a product like xtend.


really up to the person..........

as far as creatine i use Kre-Alkalyn

Well of course, all the working out and supplements aren't anything without the proper diet and eating habits. I just wanted your take on the wholecreatine use issue.

Even a glass of milk will do u good

during work out = coffee to keep u alert, or nuts as snack...and drink cold water before and during....it helps keep you and optimum level...

No, if that were the case they would be called "replacements" and not "supplements"

Youll gain water weight with creatine. So yes, its typically used for a bulking phase. Althoughhh.......

......I have heard that this product doesnt have a high water retention rate. I havent used it personally, so I dont know. (If anyone says thatthey done retain water with creatine, theyre lying or taking a @!*%*% product)

Once I've bulked up then lighter weights with more reps to tone muscle and cut the creatine.


I HATE when people say "tone a muscle". Its impossible to "tone" a muscle.

muscle milk!
All marketing.

Theyre totally different products actually. It's my personal belief that products like Muscle Milk are totally unnecessary.

I thought protein shakes were a supplement? Can't you use protein shakes as a meal replacement?

I guess the word tone is like bro to you? I only kid.

Protein shakes are a supplement. In theory, you dont even need a protein shake. Theyve gained ground as sort of this "necessity" in the liftingcommunity but it's not really necessary. (Assuming ones diet is well, but thats becoming more a problem in society)

yeah, tone is like "bro" to me. It just irks me. Ive yetto have someone explain to me what "toning" a muscle actually means.
