Ok, i Want to take creatine,I was wondering which is better Creatine pills or Creatine Powder, for those who have taken both i would like your opinions.

Thanks in Advance

O and so right after u take creatine it starts to fill ur muscles with water? like they will then appear bigger? And Does it actually BUILD muscle or only make ur muscles appear bigger?

Creatine according to my research is already present in muscle tissue, water is needed in cells for transportation of proteins etc etc, water is the human bodies transport system, as a result i would assume a larger quantity of creatine in your system would make protein movement faster and build muscle tissue faster, I've never personally tried creatine so i can't give you experienced advice, what i can say is the pills hold less creatine than the powder, and powder form is usually always better in ANY supplement.

Link is right, stick with powder.  Pill doesnt give you as much nutrition as you need.  Plus i think powder is usually less expensive, which is always a plus.

Creatine pills would be a little more convenyent though, cause im at school all day n it would be better than mixing drinks up at school lol. Cause ur supposed to take like 5 a day at the start then start taking 1-2 a day.

Powder is direct creatine, and probably did not agree with your stomach, the pills have a coating so the release of creatine is slower, as for effectiveness the powder is better, but yes the powder may give them side effects, everyones stomachs have different resistances to certain things
