Vitargo-CGLTM acts like a pump, pulling creatine and water
along with it into the bloodstream, thus synchronizing creatine
and insulin levels for maximum creatine transport to the
muscles. This avoids a premature insulin spike as seen in
creatine/dextrose formulas, where dextrose is absorbed faster
than creatine. More creatine can now be transported to the
muscles resulting in significantly better muscle and strength
gains as compared to non-Vitargo creatine formulas.
Took this stuff for a cycle, didn't gain any strength or mass. Tastes horribly and doesn't mix well at all.

Is there a new formulation?
Wondering if anyone else has noticed a dramatic difference in the formulation of Vitargo over the last year or so. The original grainy powder and gel-like consistency when mixed with water have given way to an ultra-fine powder that's messy as hell but mixes much faster and is no longer gel-like in any way. The label used to say "shake for 60 seconds"; it now says 30 seconds, which is some indication that they've made a change, but other than that, I can't find any information about the new formulation. Besides it being really messy -- it's as fine as baby powder and it drifts all over when you drop it into the shaker -- the drink now has a chalky consistency. It takes some getting used to. I really liked the original product but I'm having a hard time warming up to this new formula. Did I just get a bad lot or is everyone else experiencing the same thing? I purchased this batch in late 2007.

You have to try it to believe it!
I am in finishing my second consecutive container of Vitargo CGL now. In eight weeks my bench went from a 5 rep set of 265 to a 5 rep set of 315. My squat went from a 5 rep set of 405 to a 5 rep set of 455. I noticed a difference in muscle pump in 3 days from starting to use Vitargo CGl especially after a workout where you would normally feel flat. I did not experience any stomach discomfort or bloating. The orange mixes easily by shaking it in a container. I recommend waiting 30-40 minutes after taking before eating or taking a protein shake. My waist remained the same size while gaining 10-12 lbs. bodyweight.

awesome stuff!
I'm a female, 5'8" and only 116 lbs. I used vitargo last summer and gained 5 lbs of muscle tone in no time! Then gnc stopped selling it so i have to get it online. But that's ok because it's worth it. here's a tip... I mix it with lukewarm water in a blender. Sounds gross but it mixes much better with absolutely no clumping!

Strength and a great pump
I was turned on to CGL by a pro body builder and they said I would notice a difference the first time I used it, I was skeptical. (not sure if I spelled that right). Any ways I was told to take it 15-20 minutes before my workout instead of after. The first day I tried it I had a HUGE jump in energy and strength and the best pump I've had in a LONG time! I was completely sold!!!

good gains
I've been working out for 6 years now and I have never been a big fan of Creatine, but this has given me pretty good gains. I cant tell a difference in strength, but I can tell a difference size definitly. The taste is next to horrible, but with the gains its worth it.

This is Great Stuff
I am a Freshman Class of '09 at Clear Lake HS, and got on this over the offseason. I only took one scoop instead of the recomended two per usage, because i am younger, and less developed than usual users. I went from 130 to 145 in bodyweight about 2 months or so. It also increased my strength from 165 on bench to 210, on squats i went from 245 to 350. It offers huge gains, and faster muscle recovery, provided you have a good workout plan. I usually fill a water bottle about 4/5ths full with water then add the scoop of creatine. It shouldnt clump as long as you shake it for about a minute immediately after you mix it.

IM 17 WITH GREAT STRENGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
When I started taking VITARGO I was in a slump with my bench press, I couldn't max any thing over 260, but in about a two months I shot up to 290. I recently ran out of Vitargo and I have great energy spikes even without taking it,( I MUST BUY MORE) I love it... And the fruit punch tastes great.

Miracle Creatine
I'm a female and I've been taking Vitargo for about 3 weeks now and the results are amazing. My body fat has dropped and my muscle has increased especially in my legs. I don't know about these other dummies, but if you listen to the directions correctly you should have no clumping. I've had no problem with it.

Pretty good, good results
I have cycled on-and-off of this product one month at a time. I have made some pretty good gains for myself with it. My only word of advice is to use a blender instead of a shaker - it mixes much better, and will not clump.

Awesome Creatine!
I started taking Vitargo CGL almost a month ago and I started noticing great gains after 3 days. My weight jumped from 180 to 186 in as little as 2 weeks taking it. I experienced fullness in my muscles all over and they feel tight. I would definitely recommend this product to someone who wants to get massive.

Vitargo - Good Stuff
I've been taking it for about 8 months. I switched from Cell Tech (75g sugar) It has definitely added strength and size. I'm 38 and trying to get back into the heavy weights...bench from 300 when I started back to 350 over 8 months...body weight from 185 to 195. Only taking it with protein so something is working ...try it but do yourself a huge favor use a battery operated mixer because it does not mix well...

It's Ok
This product really works. My muscles felt fuller only after a week. The only down side is that the orange flavor doesn't taste all that good. Also, clumping is a concern.

From cell tech to vitargo
I was taking cell tech previously and was getting good gains from it. I just recently switched to Vitargo and have gotten more of a drive to workout and better gains. Ive only been on it for 2 weeks and love it already.
