USNMicronized Creatine Monohydrate Powder, Unflavoured - 500g, Energy Drink for High Intensity Training, Muscle Growth, 100% Micronized Creatine Powder for Intra Workouts, Dietary Supplement

A supplement worth buying when going gym. It has helped me increase my muscle mass and performance at the gym. Would recommend for those looking.

Good quality

After using this product for about 10 months I have seen great results. I take it a month on (strength training), month off (cardio & recovery).On my strength training month I only take 10g per day for a week to load and maintain then for a further 3-4 weeks with just 5g a day in a cup of tea each morning.That seems to be enough to work for me. I notice the affects by about the fourth day of loading. [Note: I weigh about 66kg / 10st 8lb]The only problem I can report is a bit of cramping in some muscles when I push myself but a few stretches soon release the cramps. Personally though, for me, the benefits far exceed the occasional bit of cramp...and that might even be my fault for not drinking enough as I probably don't actually drink that much extra fluid to what I normally do.From what i remember dispatch was quick and the tub it comes in is good quality (perfect size to fit in the cupboard too).Amazing stuff, just drink plenty of fluids throughout the day if taking a high dose.

Having been into natural (non competetive) "bodybuilding" for the best part of 30 years, I've used many different supplements ranging from protein/weight gainers to zinc/chromium capsules (and even more obscure..) and creatine is one of only two natural supplements that I'd recommend as having noticeable effects (the other being protein/weight gainers). I first used creatine in the early 90's and saw good strength gains (in my 20s) and used it on and off for around 10 years, then stopped using supplements for around 15 years (still training). Now in my mid 40s, I'm no longer as strong as I used to be, but after some deliberation decided to try a course of creatine (more as an experiment to see what effect it would have than anything).First the bad stuff...1) It can be hard on the stomach (use your imagination...), particularly during the 25g/day loading phase2) It will make you retain water, which means you'll get heavier (good/bad depending on how you see it, but I've gained 5 lbs in 3 weeks) and you'll get thirsty more often and drink more water (you should).3) It's a little gritty, even when mixed with fruit juice (I'd say a little like the griittiness of toothpaste), but mixed into a protein shake it won't be noticed.Now the good...(YMMV)1) I'm marginally stronger at 3 weeks, nothing earth shattering but a small improvement.2) I've seen a HUGE increase in workout stamina. Whereas I'd normally take 3/4 minutes rest between sets I'm now taking breaks of around a minute and not feeling worse for it.3) Mentally, I feel sharper4) The tub I received had 50% extra (750g instead of 500g)In summary, this is a good supplement for folks that are serious about their training and accept the side effects (worth doing your own research too), but I wouldn't recommend this to occasional trainers or as a supplement to be taken continuously over an extended period.

Easy to use, unflavoured. Plenty of information on the pot compared to other brands. It mixes well, some brands give you that odd, gritty texture when using, this one was better on that front.

Missing scoop so hard to measure out grams needed

The media could not be loaded. No spoon inside

I've used USN products in the past and have always been pleased with the quality and value for money, this product is no exception as it provides a good increase in power and overall energy level. The only thing I will mention is be careful during the loading phase as there doesn't seem to be any consideration for body weight on the recommended loading dose. For example I'm about 70kg and I found taking four servings per day a bit much (this would probably be fine if your 80kgs or more) so on my second cycle I dropped it to three servings per day during loading and it's been much easier on to handle. Other than that I can't fault it and will be buying more soon.
