Gainful Creatine Powder, Post Workout Amino Acid Supplement, Muscle, Energy & Focus Support, 5g Creatine Monohydrate, Unflavored, 28 Servings

Great stuff

Gives me a good pump during my workouts & helps me push through my strength training. Container is smaller but it’s very useful

This is flavorless, mixes well, and creatine is well researched. This has the standard 5 grams of creatine per serving, though I’ve sometimes seen recommendations to start with 10 grams for a week or so when just starting to take creatine. My personal opinion is that this is a reputable brand. It was not easy to find, but once I searched the Support section of their website, I found they stated that they do perform third-party lab testing. Here is a quote: “We source our ingredients from manufacturers all across the country and require all of our manufacturers to provide COAs (Certificate of Analyses) for each ingredient. Additionally, we receive, blend, and package all of our products in a FDA compliant, cGMP-approved facility.” I love to see that, but I do wish they made the information easier to find and provided readily available COA's.

I ordered this product to take advantage of additional protein supplement to help exercises. It is important to keep the strenghth of my muscle with intensive workout. Creatine supplement is the most convenient and easy to do practice. This product is in a powered form that is great for its easy to dissolve in my milk. There is no special new taste, so I can enjoy the rest of my meal, to keep a balanced spectrum of nutritions. It is easy to take a scoop from the large jar. It is nice that this jar can last for a month.

I have been taking creatine for almost 30 years now, tried many brands and forms (powder, capsules, gummies, micronized) How does this stack up? Mixability, not the greatest, whenever I get a new band of powdered creatine I do a mixability test. I mix 2.5 grams with 4 oz of water, on this one after a couple good stir with a whisk and settle cycles, this one still had a good amount of undissolved creatine. Especially when compared with other brands I have tested. So if you are not mixing this in a blender - you will need to make sure you give it a real good stir just prior to drinking, A blender should not be a problem. I will also drink those 4 oz with the 2.5 grams on an empty stomach, not recommended but at lest I will see if there are any digestion issues, No problem with this one. One perfectly level scoop gave me exactly 5.0 grams - nice to know . I definitely prefer powder over capsules or gummies, As for micronized, this one is not micronized, but I have never seen any benefit to micronized creatine. Not third party tested, Most creatine is not third party tested, a shame, (there is a name brand or two that is) I would like to see more of that, While I don't hold it against this company - it certainly would be a big plus if it were. I will pay a wee bit more for third party tested creatine. As for cost, definitely compare cost per gram, Some well know brands that are third party tested are very competitive on a cost per gram basis.

I’ve been taking creatine monohydrate for years now, it’s an excellent supplement for anyone who regularly works out. There is also current research saying it helps with mental capacity as well which I tend to agree with. When looking for a good creatine supplement you want to buy pure creatine monohydrate, which this product is. Any other additions or formulations are unnecessary for most people however mixing in some pre workout or something could be convenient for some. This product is good, just like every other creatine monohydrate I’ve taken in the past. It’s pricey though and I don’t know why. Maybe if you’re just starting out and want to buy a smaller container, this could fit your needs, personally I’d buy a kilogram of the stuff for only a little bit more money.

I like adding a scoop of this powder to my morning coffee, as I can't even taste it. Its hard to say how much it is helping as a supplement, but I love how easy it is to use. There is a little bit of gritty residue at the very end of my beverage, but that's it.

Did not work as well as expect
