Creatine
    #19473199 -

Ive never used this stuff before, but i went out and bought some of the stuff. Can anyone tell me if it works good? What to expect from a month?

Be careful, stuff can be toxic in even moderately high ammounts, esp if your dehydrated.
Other than that I've never wanted to bulk up so I have no idea, I've got a ton of endurance training tips though if you want lean muscle.

No, its not toxic at all. The dehydration part is correct tho.

Make sure you drink a lot of water cause itll drain the water out of you. Ive been taking creatine for months, perfectly fine and its one of the most effective and safe supplements on the market.

As of what youll see in a month, it all depends, but it defiently helps with energy and ATP production.

No need to cycle it either

Make sure your on a good hypertrophy workout routine with enough rest and make sure your eating enough food too. Its not a miracle supplement, if your not training and eating right, youll see NO difference

Oh yeah I remember now its that it causes kidney strain, you wind up making about 25% more urine depending on dose with daily use. It can cause long term kidney strain but the biggest issue ofc is that you get dehydrated and you can't pee it all out.

Creatine has been used safely as a sports supplement for many years. I've not seen any credible studies to suggest, that if used properly, it posses any risk at all. As far as what to expect: Expect a little bit of water weight gain and some added energy/strength. I find after the loading phase (1st week or 2) I can squeeze out an extra 5% on my lifts. Not much, but not horrible either.

You are the only person to even get this right, but the water weight is in your muscles. OP expect your max bench for example to go up between 10 and 25 lbs and your recovery time will be faster as well. :manofapproval:

Good point... Water weight is in your muscles and when you have a great pump going mid way through your workout your skin will feel like it is ready to tear :cool:

I used to have relatively high doses everyday right before weight lifting, Make sure to really push yourself and do as many reps as possible for an hour or 2 at a time early in the morning if possible. I used creatine all the time while weight training for wrestling in high school. Really though I was just getting pumped for the ladies and because I wanted to be ripped. I really did gain TONS of energy,some muscle gain and strength through a combo of creatine weight training, cardio and wrestling.

Good luck man I think you picked the right work out supplement.

Oh and I don't want to sound like a broken record but you HAVE to stay hydrated very important. :peace:

First off, don't take double doses, and don't 'load'. That is proven useless, and your wasting your money and risk dehydration, your most likely not used to the supplement let alone drinking even the correct amount of water everyday. You shouldn't slack with the water drinking here like a lot of people do after a few days. Just eat 3 grams. There's no reason to drink more.

Second off, the type of creatine you want is german creapure micronized. It's suppose to be the purest type and doesn't cause bloating.

3rd off. Certain creatine work better for certain people. Your macros should be in check for real muscle gains


I used to care for creatine, I don't anymore. You won't notice effects for at least a week to a few weeks. I'm the weird type and notice within a couple of days that my muscles are more full.

Proven by who?
I call a big fat bullshit on your statements you have no clue what you are talking about, so QFT. OP you need to load for 5 to 7 days then one tea spoon 1 hr to 45 mins before your workout and another after that is not necessary but it will help your recovery times.  :manofapproval:

if ur lifting, u will notice a difference eventually.  ur body will swell up, n u'll be like "whoa, am i getting fat?  oh no, it must be the creatine".

helps with strength too.  u will notice u can curl more n stuff, like u'll break a plateau n be like, "wow"

be careful tho, because u can pull muscles easily if u get overzealous with ur newfound strength.  make sure to EAT, and not just rely on the creatine.  u'll definitely mess up ur arm or something.

that stuff makes all ur muscular organs swell too, not just skeletal muscles...  just so u know...
