There was a post about this on my Gaming clans forums. It was
said that it only increases the water storages in your muscles, thus
making you look more buff. Once you stop taking it though the
water will disperse again. One of the members said that he felt
like he was stronger, which im not sure if he actually was or not. ------------- |

it still builds muscle muscle, a guy on my hockey team used it over the
summer, got HUGE and real strong for bein 17 (i think). I guess for an
example, we have to bench 135 lbs. as many times as we can for tryouts,
he got it 37 times with ease. Then again, he lifted everyday and worked
his ass off.

You are supposed to take it after your workout, not before or during. Taking it after helps the healing and growth process, opposed to before and using it as your energy to where it also absorbs water where the water storage thing comes in. Dunno.. so far for with me im happy.. I know im stronger, and my mom thinks im on roids so there must be some appearence results as well. |

If do you want to put on muscle, protein supplements are the way to go. Ofcourse, make sure you get a quality supplement. I don't take any, as I really just exercise to stay fit, but from what I've read, there's a lot of garbage on the market, so make sure you know what you're buying. It is your body. -------------

I used it towards the end of last year through the middle of this year. I felt AND looked quite a bit stronger. Good stuff, but reports of it effing peoples livers up kinda turned me off...so now I just do a 2:1 calorie/protein shake with two teaspoons of glutamine mixed in. -------------

i want to hit you, and all of the stereo type people, Civ of. I use it and i love it, its not steriods people, your body natually makes creatine, you just adding more, its like you eating 2 steaks instead of one, you are just adding more protien, and you work out the same, all the creatine does is HELP build muscle THAT YOU HAVE ALREADY DAMANGED BY WORKING OUT, for you guys that dont know thats is how you get stronger, is by ripping and damaging your muscle. Creatine is the best stuff ive tried, and unlike steroids when you dont use it you your muscles dont turn into fat and you dont lose them, unless you dont work out for like 5 years and of course anybody would lose it. -------------

i dont use it. i cna get the same results by just working out. sure i wont get them as quickly but ill still get them eventually. also i think (just an op. here) that working ahrd at it will build character and work ethic instead of working 1/2 and taking creatien for the other 1/2. ust my 2 cents. ------------- Rockin' the Ironman Intimidator.

As for the working out 1/2 as much.. Dunno who does that.. I work as hard and as long as I can. The stuff I take helps my recovery like no other so I can get out there and do it again. And sure, you will eventually get the results, but the results you get in 2 weeks, someone on an enhanced diet could get in days. Its all up to the consumer, ofcourse not everyone is gunna think its ok. |
