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)

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

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.

Creatine works. I have used various makes and each time I have seen gains. The reason that I like this one and will probably stick with it (so long as the price stays reasonable) is that when I mix it, unlike others that I have tried, I don't end up with a mouth full of grit at the end of the drink. The USN powder seems to dissolve much better than other powders. I have friends that have switched to tablets due to that issue, but this is fine. I recommend taking it with a protein shake. I use the USN GF1 and find them a great combination. Use with FatGripz and watch your arms bulge.

A good quality micronized creatine. Doesn't really require any kind of loading phase in my opinion. I can feel the added 4lbs of water retention within a few days and reflectively performance increases at this time too due to greater muscle efficiency being more saturated. I just put a spoonful and my tongue and neck it with a drink, though anyone wanting to truly mix this with a spoon into a drink might find it's a bit too gritty to achieve. This is the more 'sandy' power, whereas other brands can be more finer - almost like a chalk powder. Great for the price nonetheless!

I bought this in a hurry as a gift for a family member who is a keen weightlifter. It was actually bigger than I expected it to be for the price, as like I say I was in a rush, and didn't read it all properly, so when I received it I was happy to see that it wasn't a tiny little container, I bought the cup that is advertised with it, overall a good buy and a happy customer, a well received gift, so I believe it does as it says on the tin!

This is right up there with the best creatine on the market. It's also great value for money and should last you a good month or two depending on your intake. Its very water soluable compared to other creatine ive used so you dont have to stand there for ten minutes rinsing your glass over and over. I would highly recommend this product. Ive put over a stone on using this recently and it also gives you a bit of a boost in the gym.

If you're looking to put on size and increase your strength. Then creatine is for you. Simply mix a tablespoon of this in your favourite juice and drink it once before and once after your workout. Do this for 2 weeks and then stop for a week. Then start the cycle again for 2 weeks and stop for a week etc etc. Also if you're taking creatine make sure to drink lots of water throughout the day to keep your kidneys hydrated

works best when mixed with black current cordial and water.No real need to load this one as it works well enough without the loading period.Improved workouts dramatically as can lift more and for a longer period of time.10/10 would recommend if you respond to creatine (not everyone does). But would recommend consulting a health care professional for clear advise before using any kind of supplements.

I have been using USN Creatine Monohydrate off on on now for a while and I can tell you it is greatness! I have noticed a lot of gains in a very short amount of time. I know every one is different and will see changes at different times. But I am one of those hard gainers and this stuff has been like magic for me! Well recommended to any one wanting to rip up fast and hard gainers.

Great product for strength and getting a pump after the gym when plenty of water is drunk regularly. Sip water in between sets for best results. Creatine is safe and well researched. Great starting supplement for beginners with a balanced diet with exercise (me not so long ago).Great price too considering lots of over priced similar products out there.Hope this helps.

Used this product a few times, as well as other brands. Personally I feel much more of a difference with this brand I think the quality of the creatine may be better. I definitely feel a lot more pumped and stronger with this brand.However mine didn’t come with a serving scoop which was quite annoying. But you can use a level tea spoon which works just as good.

Good quality product at a reasonable price. Use as directed with the loading phase and you will need to purchase another tub soon to continue with the maintenance dose.This can be said for almost all brands of creatine, and is not a criticism of the product.I have bought this brand before and will almost certainly use it again in the future

ITake 5grms a day or a level tea spoon any time of day more so before my work out does get to your muscle firbers quick lets you train that much harder and longer i like this product taken with water or a fruit juice,has no taste dissolves ok to with a little bit left at the bottom but just finish it with more water.

Excellent value - I use with USN low carb protein with bcaa's and L glutamine. Good size gains and strength (I am female), however, keep in mind that when loading for the first day or two you may need to make a few more toilet stops until you get used to it. Worth mentioning that it doesn't give stomach ache though.
