An example, Cell Tech has 72g of sugar per serving. You really only need 25-30g of sugar from pure fruit juice to mix with the creatine. Then, Cell Tech recommends more than one serving per day. That's an as*load of sugar! I would recommend you check the sugar content of your creatine supplement, as the creatine itself will not make you fat (though it may make you retain water).
I think that might be what's happening cause I went from pretty chiseled to big flabby muscles. I watched your video, pretty impressive I'm sure it took alot of work to get there.
