Lots of different things. I recommend mixing it in a dextrose/maltodextrin shake. Another effective method is grape juice is you don't have these things. Creatine needs help transporting to your muscles. Proven effective are sugar or carbs or a combo. Grape juice is loaded with sugar so have at it.

I use Gatorade. I think that was on the list of things that would transport.

Gatorade Lemonade

Ingredients: water, sucrose syrup, glucose-fructose syrup, citric acid, natural and artificial flavors, salt, sodium citrate, monopotassium phosphate, ester gum, sucrose acetate isobutyrate, yellow 5

Nutrition Facts: serving size: 8 fl oz; calories 50; total fat 0g; sodium 110mg; potassium 30mg; total carbs 14g; sugars 14g
I don't think that's not nearly enough to be an effective transport module. Creatine doesn't do anything for me unless I get at least 50 grams of carbs and maybe aroung 25 grams of dextrose. That's why I just bought cee from Bulk Nut. so I don't have to worry anymore.

It would be somewhat effective if he drinks it mixed in 32oz bottle of gatorade. Hey, how do u like the taste of CEE 311? It tastes so great dont it??

Technically yes, but if he drinks that whole thing, will he have room left over for the only shake that matters: 50 grams of protein, 70 grams of carbs??

-I just bought 200 grams of Bulk CEE and from what I hear it's death warmed over. I acually don't give a shit about taste, only if it works or not. I hate all the rookies over at Bulk saying, "I gained alot of muscle from it, but because the taste was rotten, I gave it 1 star and won't be buying it again." -Sounds like they got sand in their clit. :eek:

I like CEE, I got 500 grams and I am half way through my ugly looking bottle. I cared about the taste at first, but now I am used to it.

I just use the scoop from my regular creatine mono and I take 1/2 a scoop. I know the whole deal about denisty/volume thing, but I really dont care, as I think I am getting enough CEE to help me with my lifts. At first I was using the scoop that I got with my MRI glutamine, it was supposed to whold one gram of glutamine, but when I measured it using cee it averaged to about .8 grams per scoop. So I was taking about 5 scoops of that a day until I lost that damn scoop. My school lab is closed so there is no way I can get an accurate measurment with my creatine mono scoop unless I am willing to pay about 20 bucks for a cheap ass shit that only shows values up to 3 significant figures.

How do you like it? I used to use Pinnacle Esterfied Creatine and loved it. I noticed that Bulk used the CEE HCL whereas the Pinnacle version used sodium. I wonder if it matters.
