Creatine and glutamine use completely different receptors, there is no such competition. Great supplements separate and together. I’m assuming this is the ‘receptor myth’.

I've been used to using an 'all-in-one' shake which has everything in it. Only thing is, is that it's quite pricey, so I'd thought I'd have a go myself. here's my plan: (i weigh apporx 75kg, and am 5'10") 40g whey isolate 35g dextrose 10g creatine ethyl ester 5g glutamine 5g bcaa's (i was considering using scivation xtend [13g] instead of glutamine and bcaa) What do you think? Is there anything I'm missing or have too much of? Also if you could let me know whether to take the xtend or not. I appreciate your help Cheers Hey, i just stumbled on the site, and i am new at developing my own post workout shake. I’ve been used to using an ‘all-in-one’ shake which has everything in it.

A protein within this pathway (Akt) activates MTOR and also allows activation of another enzyme that BOTH stimulate protein synthesis. Insulin also appears to promote protein synthesis by aiding the amino acids entry into cells.

Anyway, I don't like those sort of supplements. I just buy pure creatine monohydrate. If you want to take it, then you'll need 1 full scoop to provide 5 grams of creatine. It may be better to save this for your carb-up period. Cheers, Mark Brendan, you haven’t stated what it is you are taking that has all those carbs.

You say 5g of it, and in one scoop it is 44g, but only 5g of actual creatine. So do you take one scoop or do you have just a little bit so that the whole amount is equal to 5g? Also, it says that there is 33g of carbs in one scoop, and i eat on the MANS diet as of course you do, so that would be a huge addition to daily carbs with just that one scoop of creatine. Please let me know because i am not taking it until i know what you do. Hey Mark, just wanted to know about the creatine. You say 5g of it, and in one scoop it is 44g, but only 5g of actual creatine.
