Creatine

[TrueB2]

What are your thoughts on creatine? Do you take it and if so for how long?


P.S. To all of you working hard...keep going, keep training, keep improving!

I’ve never tried it but based on actual science it’s probably the only supplement that actually works as advertised.

I find it helped me recover faster form workouts. That being said it also gave me the shits, bloated me, and dint give me anything I can’t get from eating red meat. Not sure if I’d bother.

I've never been the best at eating constantly, so anything that helps. And I ordered a 5.5 oz container just to try it. Hopefully not too much bloating lol

I take creatine almost daily. Like twoton said, it's the one supplement that is universally recommended for building muscle and recovery. And it's cheap.

I didn't have the best experience with it. I have a tendency to have gastro sensitivity to a lot of things and this was one supplement that I remember causing me some digestive discomfort. I also found out that my liver enzymes were becoming elevated when I started taking this. When I stopped taking it at my physicians request my liver levels returned to normal. I did enjoy the appearance of fullness that the creatine gave me but aside from that I didn't really see any other benefits to taking it.
