In the pre-workout department, the paks have it covered: Animal Pump, Nitro, maybe a stak2. I love the pumped feeling I get from those paks.
But as an animalpak newb, I need to know: what do I take postworkout? It's always been a touch-and-go issue with me as far as what supps to ingest right after a workout. Specifically, how do I get my creatine?

Nitro G is perfect for post workout. Animal Pump has you covered for creatine.

Intensity knows best!! Nitro or Nitro G is the best pos-workout.
Like Intensity said, Pump (pre-workout) will have ya covered in the creatine department. While Nitro G has got your back for post-workout recovery.

Pump or Stak 2 about 30 min pre
Nitro -G within 30 min post

Nitro or Nitro G is a great supplement to take after lifting. Follow that up with your regular PWO shake or meal, and you're set.

Nitro and Nitro-G: awesome. You can always start throwin down some Storm as well with your PWO shake or meal.

Got your creatine with the Pump. Get your EAAs post with your Nitro or Nitro G.

Once again I'm reminded why bodybuilding is my religion and Animal is my new church. This place is an awesome treasure trove of bodybuilding knowledge. Thanks, bros.
I'm with Wasteland, I go with Nitro and gatorade powder post-WO (Nitro G's pretty much the same thing) and my whey about a half hour later. Pump/gatorade pre-WO for me

I use Nitro post w/o and have had success with it. As many before have mentioned, Pump will cover your creatine needs. Following up post with Nitro will cover your EAA need and give it to you in that post w/o window of opportunity. I take Universal's Carbo Plus with my Nitro (Nitro G has the EAA and some carbs; is a liquid vs. pills w/Nitro). Peace.
