Hi.

This is my first post. Quick background: 5'11", 257lbs, natural competitive bodybuilder. I eat upwards of 4800 calories per day. I plan to compete next April at around 230 pounds or so. I have been taking NO2 almost since it was introduced and I love it. I also finally started taking Creatine (Monohydrate form) at the beginning of October. Occasional bloated feeling aside, I've made great strides combining the two supplements.

However, I'm always interested in new breakthroughs, which brings me to the subject line of this post. I ran out of NO2 (I usually order it from getNO2.com because it's less expensive than buying it at GNC), and rather than order more online (don't ask me why), I instead purchased Pump Tech (OK, it was because I was out and needed some product). My training partner recently switched from NO2 to Pump Tech on a lark (how scientific is that? LOL) and he hasn't complained about it, so rather than drop $80 on NO2 (which, again, I sincerely stand behind as a user), I bought a nine-day supply (90 pills) of Pump Tech. This was yesterday. This morning, I did some research (after the fact - briiliant) of sorts, and found many posts bashing Pump Tech and its makers. Personally, when all people can tell me is that it has "four different ways" of delivering its potency, yet they don't know what those ways are or whether its a fancy way of telling me "four different ways to reach my urinary tract," I'm more than skeptical. I trust NO2's statements about its delivery mechanisms and while I'm in the minority here (from what I've read), I am willing to spend the cash on it (except, of course, this one time.).

Secondly, I have been on the lookout for Ethyl Ester Creatine product - specifically, CE2 by the makers of NO2 (which is where I first read about it). I want a creatine product that doesn't require cycling off and won't make me feel bloated at times. Plus, if this new bonded creatine has an improved absorption rate, it only makes sense, monetarily. The guy at GNC, whose opinion I would normally take with a grain of salt - he's there to sell me something - said Anavol was selling well. I asked if it was the Creatine Ethyl Ester product, and he said that it was. Reading the package suggested otherwise, and upon reflection and some internet searching, I think I bought the wrong product.

Anyone have any opinions (hopefully based on usage and not blanket "all muscle tech products are garbage") on Anavol, Pump Tech, and where to find a solid CEE product? Thanks.

From my previous usage I concur to blanket "all muscle tech products are garbage"
