If you're a gym junkie, or just someone looking to get and feel more fit, there are a few supplements that can really help. One thing that's been picking up traction lately is creatine supplements — my boyfriend takes about five grams daily and swears it helps with muscle growth.
The Vitamin Shoppe is one place to shop for creatine supplements, and while they have a ton, there is one that is extremely highly rated and priced lower than the competition — BodyTech Pure Creatine Monohydrate Powder.
This unflavored dietary supplement dissolves quickly in water and offers 60 servings total. Just mix one scoop (five grams) of this creatine in about eight to 12 fluid ounces of water and drink it either before or after working out.
If you're using this on a rest day, make sure to take it before or after a meal. That's the only amount you should be taking — make sure not to take extra, as this might upset your stomach.
Creatine is well-loved by athletes as it helps with muscle recovery and soreness post-workouts. It should also help you bulk up, and is even said to increase endurance. My boyfriend, for example, says it has improved his stamina and definitely helped him gain more upper body muscle mass since he started taking it two months ago.
While there are flavored creatines out there and even chewable tablets available, this unflavored supplement is the easiest way to incorporate it into your schedule. It is virtually tasteless, so it won't feel like you're actually 'taking' anything.
The product is also gluten-free, making this a great option for most of you.
The Vitamin Shoppe customers seem to love it too, with many giving it a near-perfect 5-star rating.
'Blends very easily. Husband noticed a positive difference with his legs (he has neuropathy in his legs),' says one shopper.
'I can tell the difference between my bulk when I use this versus other creatine products,' adds another.
'No after taste and the scoop actually gives you 5 or + more grams of creatine. It's accurate unlike most brands where their scoops only give you 2-3 grams. Definitely my go to creatine brand,' says a third.
At just $25, this creatine supplement is a great addition to your workout routine. See results in just a few weeks, and recover from your tiresome workouts faster.
