it's not bad but there are better out there. I would use that for post workout. I would take 2 scoops with 16 oz water and add in a banana for some more carbs. the serving size that they suggest is not the best. you really want a ratio of protein:carbs that is 1:3. so for 25 grams protein you would want about 75 grams of carbs. cutting the serving size in half will also make it last 2x as long (36 servings vs 18).

I bought it because it has creatine in it would there be a sufficent amout of creatine if I split the serving size in half?

Thanks

Hey man looks okay but next time shop around...
N-Large 2 10LB its $38.99 and the best bang for your bucks because it has 30 servings.
