cellmass by BSNQ: I’ve been using creatine for years and have tried many types (creatine monohydrate, citrate, malate, etc.)—some with better results than others. I’ve now been hearing about a new type of creatine and am wondering if it’s worth trying. What is this “creatine ethyl ester”? Is it a better form of creatine? What do you know about it?

A: The first question we need to clarify is what do you mean by better? Yes, there is reason to believe creatine ethyl ester (or CEE) is probably more soluble than creatine monohydrate (Cr.H20) or other forms of creatine. And, as solubility affects transport over biological membranes (such as muscle cells), it probably is taken up into your muscles more effectively. Meaning, you can load it faster. However, whether this leads to a greater accumulation of creatine in your muscle, at the end of a five-day loading phase, compared to creatine monohydrate, is relatively unknown. At least, there’s no human data as of yet that can support or dispute this claim.

Today I thought I’d post the video of one of my favorite creatine supplements, Gaspari’s SizeOn. SizeOn is pretty much the only post workout creatine product that I have heard nothing but good comments about. If it was a bit cheaper, I think it would be the best selling creatine supplement by a long shot! Anyway, check out this video, there’s some good info on there.

Edit: if you want to try SizeOn you can now get it in a smaller size for $17.99.

For more on SizeOn read this page or check out Gaspari’s Website.

BSN CellmassThis week’s creatine supplement of the week is BSN Cellmass! Cellmass was one of the first Creatine Ethyl Ester supplements to hit the market and is one of the most popular amongst bodybuilders and strength athletes. Cellmass tastes pretty good and if you read some Cellmass reviews you’ll see that a lot of guys are getting good results from it.

Some people are confused about how to take Cellmass. Ideally, you should take it immediately after you finish training. Before you take anything else, even whey. Take your cellmass then 30 mins later have your whey protein shake. On off days (no training) you can take it whenever you like, it won’t really matter. Always read the label before you take it.

You can buy cellmass online here, these guys are cheap and will ship quick.
