Cellucor C4 and Creatine mix. Good or bad?

So I've been using C4 as a pre-workout for awhile now. I've been thinking about adding creatine monohydrate for post-workout. I wasn't sure how that would work since the C4 as creatine nitrate. Anyone have any knowledge on this they would like to share?

    Yes i have used C4, How many scoops are you taking? It is a good mix, just get off of it for 1 month when you are done to let your body get that crap out.

    I am currenlty on and off with jack3d and assault Mp with con cret and beta cret stack

    I use 1 and 1/2 scoops before my workout. I wasn't sure if it'd be bad to have that before my workout and do creatine monohydrate in my post-workout shake?

    Your fine, i normally take my con cret and beta cret with my pre workout and do a protein isolate shake after my workout.

    Watch that creatine bloat! People say it's a myth but I get damn near an A cup the day after I take a dose!

    HA... well if that's the case maybe I should do a creatine loading phase. :laugh:

    I wouldn't use both products, if you want to use a post workout you would be better off using a glutamine product or some BCAA.
