Cell-Tech Quick Question

Just picked up a 4.5lb tub of cell-tech today and plan to start taking it in place of my normal creatine come monday.


One thing that I'm not sure about is: Say that I just finished lifting and am heading home from the gym (which is when I usually drink a whey shake mixed with creatine); should I now drink my celltech with water on the way home and then 30-45 min after that drink a whey shake?

Is it dumb to drink a shake BEFORE taking my celltech?

I know the faster after you are done lifting the better when it comes to whey; but I cant imagine mixing a fruit punch flavored creatine compound with a chocolate whey would be very good lol.

Thanks

If I was you I would drink the Cell-tech right when you get done lifting and as soon as you get home get a protein shake in.

I would suggest ditching the Cell-tech (toooooo much sugar) and go for a whey and carb approach. Something like LG Science's new Postal and their Lipotropic protein. They have some videos that show an athlete training then taking their post-workout supplements. These videos will hopefully answer all your questions. Here's a link to one of them. Hope I helped!

Yeah, take the Cell-Tech directly PWO, then your whey/meal a little later.

ok great thanks alot!

I was just worried that the longer the time span from when i am finished lifting to getting my PWO shake in would take away from my gains was all.

I'll just bring my cell-tech with me and down it on the way back and shake there after if i can handle drinking both close together, shouldn't be a problem tho.

Thanks again everyone for help

I would give the Cell-Tech a good 20-30 min. in the gut before throwing down the whey shake.
