Cell Tech Hardcore Creatine Questions
Hi I just started this creatine and I have a couple questions. I'd appreciate any advice I can get.
1) It says the serving size is 2 scoops, but I'm doing 1 1/2 scoops, because 2 is very sweet, and gave me a stomach ache. -Is this ok or should I go back to 2 scoops each time.
2)Is the 5 day loading stage necessary (it says morning and after a workout for the first 5 days) ( and then maintenance stage which is just 1 serving after the workout)
3) Should I take this when I don't workout, Wednesday, and Sat-Sunday. ( It says to take it even when I don't workout, first thing in the morning), I personally disagree, but want others opinions
4) How long should I be on this product for
5) Is their a chance I will get chubbier and lose definition from the product
6) Advantages and Disadvantages. (hopefully their are more advantages)
Thank You to everyone that responds.

(1) 2 scoops is the loading phase, normally take a cheap creatine for loading up if you want to go through the loading phase....Taking the CellTech for loading is expensive.
(2) See No 1
(3) On training days take after your workout and on non training days take in the morning..
(4) normally two tubs....
(5) You may put some water weight on, and suffer some bloating, but the good effects from the training will outweight the negatives...
(6) See No 5, and also you will get better contractions, more muscle energy, and better contractions and recovery.... |

Creatine
I use the same brand as well, and I had many of the same questions a couple of weeks ago. After reading a lot of information from multiple posts, I decided to do the following:
Training Days
1st scoop ~1 hour prior to workout
2nd scoop immediately following workout
Non-Training Days
1st scoop on the morning
2nd scope in the afternoon

I've tried celltech hardcore and it did absolutely nothing for me. Maybe my body reacts different to creatine that most but all I got from the product was a sore throat. Best of luck to those trying it, let us know how it goes for you. Mo

Cell Tech Hardcore is a superb creatine product due to the creatine, lipoic acid and turine,
Some people do have no results from creatine but not many... |

IF your scared of bloating try Cell Mass they use a no bloat formula.

The first time that I tried CellTech Hardcore, I weighed 155lbs. After 3 months of being on it, I weighed 170lbs. I have never felt more power and better about myself on any other product around. I stopped taking it for two reasons.
1. It is very expensive
2. It has alot of sugar in it, and is very sweet.
It is a great supplement if you want to put on mass and gain strength. My goals have changed so I will stick to basic creatine.
