Guest guest Posted September 9, 2001 Report Share Posted September 9, 2001 Ed, I have a client that takes Cell Tech and has had great results as far as strength gains and size. He hasn't experienced any side effects (that I know of). I would be cautious of it, however, just due to the amount of creatine per serving that it contains. I believe it has 10 g/serving whereas the majority of other supplements have just 5 g/serving. Good Luck. --- C <cmorris104@...> wrote: > Cell Tech > > Hey guys I was thinking about purchasing some cell tech. Have > any of you > guys tried it yet.

Guest guest Posted September 10, 2001 Report Share Posted September 10, 2001 Cell Tech's serving size recommendation is a tad misleading, in that the product itself has the exact amount of creatine as other such products (Phosphagen HP, etc...). While they claim their product has twice the amount of creatine per serving (10 grams as opposed to 5) of other high glycemic creatine drinks, their serving recommendation is twice the size. The exact same size container of Phosphagen HP has approximately 42 servings while MuscleTech's Cell Tech has 20.

Guest guest Posted September 10, 2001 Report Share Posted September 10, 2001 Hi, Using creatine with a delivery system (like Cell Tech) is useful during loading phase. After that I don't think it matters that much from using normal creatine. Jarno Bouwhuis Enschede, The Netherlands (email:jarno@...)

In other words, the ton of carbohydrates in these helps speed up the creatine uptake. Thats why studies on these combos versus regular creatine look great, so long as they are short term and do not go beyond the loading period (cuz beyond this point the creatine only group most likely catches up) ONce loading has been acheived however, the stores can be maintained with or without the excess carbs, as long as you are taking in around 5 grams of creatine a day. Using these drinks after loading is stupid IMO, unless your goal is to be a fat tub of..... Now I base this on a study that examined this subject, but unfortunately I failed to keep record of the reference. Maybe someone here can save my ass and post said reference, so you see that this is not made up by me Arnold Illinois Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, Muscle Tech is absolutely one of the very worst in this regard. It doesn't seem to matter which glossy one picks up, one will find at least one 6-page " adversorial " by this company about one of it's products. I absolutely refuse to purchase anything from Muscle Tech for this very reason. I understand some of their products are good, but why should I pay more for them to support their huge advertising budget, not to mention that what they say in these ads is B & & s**T? omitted that the fitness bunny who claimed to use Xenedrene to lose her postpartum fat was Marla Duncan. I've seen Marla in person pre-pregnancy and believe me, she had one gorgeous bod. Even her breast implants (to which she freely admits to having had done) were within reason. I read several articles by her when I used to subscribe to Muscle Mag (discontinued because it became a front for Muscle Tech and I got tired of paying out good money for 3/4 of a magazine that was advertising), and she is a very astute, intelligent woman. However the " before " photos of her in the ad are definitely in the latter stages of her pregnancy. I have no doubt she lost weight after her baby was born, but a good 15 of them were gone at delivery! Because Marla has always been sensible with her advice, I doubt she would have taken a thermogenic whilst breast feeding her newborn child. I suppose this ad was designed to catch those people who didn't know she had been pregnant. Two thumbs down for Muscle Tech's attempt to put one over on the public.
