I also dont think anyone that is posting on here is stupid enough to pay $30 - $50 on creatine. Hell half the times I've gotten creatine it was free when I ordered my protein or else it was like $10 for a lb or 2..
I think my favorite part in this thread is the guy talking about how because Nitrous 5.0 was the biggest person at his gym that meant he knows what he is talking about. Maybe he does.. Maybe he doesnt. Reading his posts on here I'm gonna go with option 2 though.

those of you recommending the biotest one.
It's cheap on the tmuscle site, $12.95 USD
but wtf man I have no choice but to choose between FedEx International Economy ($21) and FedEx International priority ($24).
How the hell you guys get it? No fucking way am I paying close to double the price of the product just for shipping. Man sometimes I wish I lived in the states.....free Fedex shipping damn!
I can't find it on supplementscanada or SVNcanada either.
I'm thinking of considering this: https://www.trueprotein.com/Product_...d=91#Nutrition
because I'm gonna make a big TP purchase soon of whey, waxy maize, and (maybe) creatine...
anyone have any ideas about TP's creatine mono by any chance?

Biotest creatine is no better than any other good creatine. It's not worth going out of your way that much. Prolab is a great alternative, and you should be able to buy it at any store.

Now SkippyPupp will post articles stating that you don't have to change your routine, there's no scientific evidence, just guidelines. I'll agree, there's no compelling argument, I personally find doing the same routine gets boring and I plateau, changing it up motivates me to focus on strength building in different exercises.
Its not all about science and supplements, some of it is in your head. Are you working forearms?
They are usually the first muscle to plateau preventing you from handling heavier weight, and one of the most overlooked muscles to exercise.

what do you guys think of "high power" creatine monohydrate?
the one from bodybuilding.com, the site seems to endorse it, and it's pretty cheap.

They endorse it because it's their brand
I personally wouldn't trust it. Every time I try cheap creatine, it sucks. Either bad gas or diarrhoea, or it clumps up right away and becomes unusable.

They are usually the first muscle to plateau preventing you from handling heavier weight, and one of the most overlooked muscles to exercise. | Some good points there. But yes changing routines is good mentally and in a sense that it will stop your muscles from adapting to the exercise
Yes and its not all about the science and supps, but you cant argue against the fact that they will push you further along
Forearms. Yes. I will need to do more than just jerkoff as i do notice it being the weakest link at times Quote:

start on some AAS and then see what happens

I've read a bunch of articles and I'm on the fence. Marathon runners get better by simply running more, ie doing more of the same without change. Having run a marathon I agree, sprints and hills didn't make as much of a difference as just getting out there and running longer distances more often.
I personally like the idea of changing it routines, whether science supports it or not, its boring to do the same thing over and over.

One of the football players at my university suggested it and he was bang on. He had 3 simple exercises:
Tricep pull downs. Use reverse grip, keep your thumb on the same side as your fingers.
Bicep curls. Use reverse grip, keep your thumb on the same side as your fingers.
Standing hold with dumbbells. Like should shrugs, yet just standing holding the weight at your side until failure.
The reason for the reserve grip and thumb on same side is to put all the emphasis on the grip, no cheating using your thumb or palm as leverage. I like to do these exercises quickly and super set them.
