Optimum Nutrition Pre-Load Creatine Complex Mandarin Orange -- 4 lbs 4.7 5 2 3

Good Buy Works good, Great taste! January 8, 2011

The best stuff out there for the money I've been using various creatine products with a 'loading' agent, and I'd say that ON pre-load is CERTAINLY the best for the buck. I cannot differentiate between EAS Phospagen or Muscletech Cell Tech Hardcore. For under $20, you get 4lbs, which also include several extra amino acids. If you've never tried this, I highly suggest you give it a try. Order it along with your typical creatine and compare. Once you learn that you may be paying double for a smilar product, you may never use another creatine again. February 4, 2008

Optimum Nutrition Pre-Load Creatine Complex Mandarin Orange Description

Strength & Recovery

To maximize its impact on performance, creatine must first get inside the muscles. While pure creatine works well on its own, it's possible to achieve faster delivery and greater overall results by combining this proven ingredient with synergistic compounds in precise ratios. Building on a foundation of Creapure® Creatine, we've added a proprietary matrix of fast-acting, easy-digesting carbohydrates, nutritive electrolyte transporters, and key volumizing amino acids to accelerate delivery and elevate muscle creatine retention. At the same time BCAA, phosphate, and trimethylglycine fortification further supports accelerated muscle recovery and regeneration. Undeniably, this advanced new Pre-Load Creatine Complex™ formula is designed to provide benefits well beyond those of standard creatine products.

10 grams of Creapure® Creatine per serving
70 grams of fast-acting carbs from Waxy Maize Starch, Dextrose, and Isomaltulose
3 grams of cell-swelling Glutamine + Taurine
2 grams of BCAAs (2:1:1 ratio of Leucine, Isoleucine, and Valine) for recovery and resynthesis

Nutrition Facts

Optimum Nutrition Pre-Load Creatine Complex Mandarin Orange Directions

Add 2 scoops of Pre-Load Creatine Complex to a glass, shaker, or blender filled with 8-12 oz of cold water. Mix thoroughly for 15-20 seconds or until contents are well dispersed. If using 1 scoop, reduce the amount of cold water used by one half. Pre-Load Creatine Complex is a highly concentrated supplement, so not all ingredients will completely dissolve into solution. Agitating the prepared liquid slightly during consumption will help suspend the ingredients long enough to drink.

On Training Days: Consume 1-2 scoops of Pre-Load Creatine Complex 30-60 minutes before exercise.

On Non-Training Days: Consume 1-2 scoops of Pre-Load Creatine Complex in between morning and afternoon meals.

Tip: If you find it too difficult to drink 2 scoops of Pre-Load Creatine Complex before training, try consuming 1 scoop 30-60 minutes before exercise and a second scoop immediately afterward. Serving scoop included, but may settle to the bottom during shipping.
