No problem, just hate seeing supp companies screw guys out of their money. Here's a study on Kre-Alkalyn and those conversion rate claims: Kre-alkalyn® supplementation has no beneficial effect on creatine-to-creatinine conversion rates

Good news if you're taking CEE is that at least you're not using Kre-Alkalyn. Why the hell would you rely on a supplement manufacturer's marketing crap to buy this stuff? The conversion rate claim is pure bullshit and there's plenty of data out there to back it up. And cinnamon? Are you kidding...

Water retention? Are the VPX CEX sellers telling you this stuff in hopes you'll buy their product? Creatine doesn't cause extra cellular water retention. Yes, there is cell volumization that deals with water retention within the cell but cell volumization is tied to greater muscle protein...

I've yet to see any conclusive research that shows CEE is superior to mono or even effective. In fact the studies I've read point in the opposite direction: Creatine ethyl ester rapidly degrades to creatinine in stomach acid. Personally I don't know anyone on mono that has had bloating issues...

You can't go wrong with a provider who sells Creapure creatine monohydrate. Just don't blow money on capsules since they prevent the creatine from being properly absorbed.

Check with the hotels too, many have agreements with gyms that include complimentary passes if you call and ask. I travel a lot for work and even the Holiday Inn Expresses I stay at get me free access to the Gold Gyms. And if you go to the Golds website you'll usually find a free one week pass...

I'm guessing that's an understatement. More likely you've had to go through this topic with a tree shredder. I don't envy you mods but I'm sure that's why you get paid the big bucks. :D

What kind of bass-ackwards logic is that? I haven't tried crystal meth but I don't need to in order to know it's not going to be healthy. I don't have to use Hydroxycut either to understand it's garbage. And while I'm sure a barium enema has its medical virtues I don't need one to see what it...

That's exactly what I was thinking. Chris, could you please pony up the research that shows combining HMB with dextrose, creatine, and/or beta-alanine makes it an effective supplement.

Thanks Will for the input and as a result welcome to the internet twit group. I wonder what our membership dues will be?

My "argument" was facetious but you missed my point. No one here argues the role that creatine can play on training. What's in contention are the other ingredients (HMB and BA) in Results that have been shown to have little or no impact on training. It's these ingredients along with a massively...

Um, I posted here first, you then posted after me... who's doing the stalking? :D Yeah I know, pretty novel idea isn't it. You should give it a try sometime. That one's easy. You pay $53 for a paltry 20 servings. Ingredients include an average whey product. You think for this price it should...

LOL, all that proves is that you use it. Use doesn't equate to effectiveness. I'm thinking I should subcribe to your train of thought. The other day I added some vanilla extract to my PWO shake and I hit a PR in my deadlift. My god, how did I not know that vanilla extract was such a powerful...

Biased? You pimping ALN in every post? Nah, that's not bias. :doh:

C'mon, no one's that stupid. :wacko:
