I thought it was the best supplement Ive ever used tbh.
I got the myprotein one.

funny coz I'd read quite a lot of stuff on forums from BBers slating it but I guess it comes down to expectations. I felt it doing what its supposed to straight away and consistently as I was using it. Havent had any since but that has been down to cashflow. Im actually about to stick in an order this week for some.

Im trying to take 2 grams per day but I cant weigh a gram. my scales wont register it. so Im taking half a teaspoon per day because I was sure that a 5g serving of creatine was about a teaspoon....... Im pure scientific me.

I got one of their mini scoops which I worked out held 3 grams, try using the small section on those new medicine spoons, that should be 2.5 grams.
