You were very clear but I still want to clarify something. When you run short on ATP (in the gym for example) I assume you start feeling lethargic? When creatine is used pre-workout, is the extra ATP the reason for the extra energy?
Guys, I work out everyday. I didn't used to yak creatine but I started two days ago. It is full of so much sugar (gnc brand) I've started to gain weight in fat. It's ridiculous and makes no sense. I take it with Gatorade and all together it's 51 g of sugar. I'm 16 I'm not supposed to get big like this! Help anybody?!
@Falckjazz I thought about that, so I started drinking it with super light gatorade that only had like 2g of sugar. I'm off it now and seeing pretty fine results with whey and stuff.
@BackwoodsArsenal Okay, you would not notice weight gain in 2 days first of all, so I don't see how your saying taking Creatine for 2 days caused your weight gain. Secondly, you're taking it with Gatorade, all that sugar isn't good for you bro, lol.
It isnt a steroid. Ill dumb it down for some of you. It makes your body regain energy faster through chemicals. So usually, when you start to feel tired, if u took a creatine, you would be able to go alittle further.
So ive been working out for about 2 weeks now using no supplements at all and i was thinking about using creatine.. Creatine to me has been described as the "Safe steroid" (Like its like steroids, only no harm) Is that true? How fast will you see results if you are working out on a regular basis? Thanks for all of the help! Good luck everyone!
Idiot, Honestly you can tell that you dont understand or know anything you just read off , FLipping freak , We can go on wikipedia and read that why would we need you To read it for us? AS if we can remember it better muppet
Should you take 5 grams of creatine 1 hour before you workout? I heard you're only supposed to take 5 grams of creatine a day because any more is a waste.
If u are blood type O, dont take creatine mono! Not only it will damage ur kidney, it will not work for u! Take some creatine that has a blend in it, like other types of creatine that will work. Blood types A, B and AB can use creatine mono and will work for them, dont waste money on other types. What im saying has completely no scientific evidence but ive been training for 10 years and all my friends that are O blood type didnt benefit from creatine mono and 1 of of them had kidney issues! THX
sir..id like to ask a simple question..ive done my research on creatine.. nyway.. i also know it helps you store water in your muscle... would you recommend using creatine while loosing bodyfat?
in the process of cutting you are volumizing your muscle(since you train rather abit high rep)..hence gaining abit of muscle mass..my question is if u take creatine will it help u in anyway? ( my calorie intake is perfect according to my knowledge divided among 7 meals..so i wont loose muscledefinately
@BodyPerformanceTV Obviously i know this but it isnt working.. i eat at the least i eat 2500 to 3000 calories.. and what im eating defineitaly isnt healthy, i was thinking more of good drinks or powders that help weight gain fast... is there a good one
@BodyPerformanceTV i said 2500 to 3000... and i really do i eat non stop all day and its mcdonalds and junk food and im starting to already have heart painss
Hey i am a 128 pound man and im using six star pro nutrition creatine x3 and on the label it says to take 1 scoop which equals 50 grams of creatine but other people tell me to take only 5 grams but the label says one whole scoop which is 50grams? help me please! thanks
I've always been able to keep natural muscle and abbs from just sports and jogging and medium level lifting because im in junior high. but next year im going into highschool and im wanting to have a full on 6pack and ripped arms before football so what im wanting you to put a video up of is like what powders to use.. like which is better? creatine or protein powder? or creatine pills or all 3? i need help and could u please give me an answer?
@fearhunter09 Neither protein powders nor creatine will give you a six pack. Losing body fat will give you the six pack and consistent hard lifting will make you muscular.
hey Steve, i have a question, i bought a creatine shake just a week ago the label is called "Muscle Tech Cell tech" the reason why i bought this was because i really wanted a shake for my post workout.im also struggling to build muscle as well NE ways my only concern with the shake is that ii has 75g of sugar per shake.is it okay to take it?and also my workouts are intense and heavy.and all my carbs,proteins,fats and calories come form my food through out the day.
Steve, You ignored the issue that the health community has with creatine. There are no 80 year studies on the use of creatine. In fact there are no 20 year studies on the use of creatine. If you have a healthy body, and you don't have the potential to gain large amounts of money by using creatine it's a risk not worth taking. If you are say a football player that's at peek performance and a couple percentage will earn you a spot in the NFL then go for it.
i dont know if im clutching at straws here, but i cant understand why the sudden hair deterioration ? ive only started taken creatine in addtion to normal food cosumption, and the hair problem started right about the time i started taking creatine?
what should i do? should i stop, should i continue taking it? any legit studies confirming Creatine casues hair loss due to DHT increase or not?
ive started a creatine cycle 3 weeks ago, for the past 2.5 weeks, ive noticed my hair has visibly thinned alot,and lot of her falling out when im having a shower or comb my hair, particularly around the crown area, and on the flip side my beard is growing much faster and coarser hair
so i googled Creatine + Hair, and i saw many websites regarding this matter, and people complaining about hair loss & creatine, apparently its due to spike in DHT
sorry to hear that man. Ive stopped taking mine for the past 3 weeks. The extreme brittleness and falling out of my hair is now mostly stopped. I dont know if it raises DHT in some or not, or if it effects hair follicles through some other mechanism, i really dont know, but what i do know is that it does affect my hair in a bad way.
May be ok for most people but not for me unfortunately
so your 17 or 24? which, youve been taking it since 17 did you mean? STOP TAKING IT
i have an expired jar of Creatine, it expired in march of this year i was wondering if it is till ok to take?? or should i just throw it away, i still have almost 1/2 a 2lb jar left haha so i would like to use it.

I weigh 355 lbs and workout three times a week for an hour with a trainer. I plan to start jogging 5 times a week for an hour at a time. I am 37 years old. My plan is to lose about 120 or more pounds within a year. I lift light weights to tone up. Would you suggest me using creatine?
@SuperCraigger No, creatine will not help with weight loss. I also suggest you walk instead of jog at least until you've lost some weight. You also need to get an idea of your total daily calorie intake.

I like how you only address the important stuff. Also do you personaly use creatine? I tried it a few times but it makes me dizzy although it helps a lot with endurance... (twice the reps without a sweat ).
I have a hard time drinking creatine as it doesnt mix well with anything at all... What's the better way to consume it?

@j0eL80 It's probably absorbed a bit faster after a workout but since it has to accumulate in your system it really doesn't matter too much when you take it.
Hey steve i been takeing A supplement called Amplified Creatine 189 which is a Creatine monohydrate... have u heard any news about it or do u no any better creatines i can or should be takeing?
hey stece im 16 right now and i use to workout in the gym by lifting weight but not no more because they close the gym, so now my workouts are P0x and run 20 laps everyday, and my uncle gave me these creatine pills that i have to take 2 a day but i dnt noe wen to take them
Hey Steve I'm 15 and an elite soccer player and have been thinking about taking creatine lately. Is it worth it? Would it make me quicker or would it slow me down with extra water in my Muscles? Is it safe for my age? Thanks in advance
@vivalageorge5 Creatine would not slow you down BUT creatine is used as fuel during ANAEROBIC activties not AEROBIC activites therefore it wouldn't help that much with soccer type exercising.

i have heard that its best to take creatine with grape juice. why? also does it matter what type, i prefer white grape juice. the reason why i ask is because of during the loading phase you take it a few times a day.
@lilwopaho because of the sugar in the grape juice, it helps the absorption of the creatine by spiking your insulin level up. i always mix some dextrose in with my post workout shake to achieve that.
me an my friend done bodybuilding 2yrs ago we started around the same build an weight he took protein shakes an creatine twice aday an i only took 4 raw egg whites an 1 yoke in a pint of milk wen i got home after 6-8 months i was bigger an stronger an we done the same workout

@IREYES7171 what your 13 yrs old and you want to take creatine , sure dude why dont you do weight lifting too , so you stunt your growth and look like a drawf at 18
Oh yeah, another question: I have the GNC Amplified N.O. loaded pre workout powder which has Creatine in it. There's so much frikin caffeine in it, so my trainer told me to use only 1/3 of a scoop (seeing that i'm only 150lbs). Would you say this product gives proper creatine and I should start taking this before a gym workout???
I'm NEW to all of this so please no thumbs down or nasty comments, but I have a question: You take the Creatine BEFORE you workout? And if you do, is that so you get a "better" workout? I just want my info straight! Also, if I go to GNC, what is the best Creatine to get??? Any advice or help in a constructive way from anyone would be really appreciated! Thanks! 8)
is it better to cycle creatine or is it just as good to stay on the maintenance dosage?? iv herd that after a while of useing creatine that the gains stop comming...that why they cycle.
does creatine make me gain weight because i just gained 6 pounds in a week and ive been eating healthy and doing my cardio right and after i take creatine i workout my muscles for about 2-3 hours ...
Steve, I like the practical approach you take to fitness. Many professionals spend so much time focusing on minor things that just confuse people. That said, I've been working out for a year now and cycling creatine the last few months. In your opinion, is it necessary to cycle creatine or would one have similar gains by staying on a small dose like 3-5g all the time? Thanks!
As far as I know, all that creatine does is it retains water so that when you work out more oxygen and red blood cells are able to flow to the muscle which causes them to grow faster. This guy is making up this bullshit just to sound smart. What a joke.
@dookysplatter what Steve is saying is correct about creatine. It supplies ATP energy to muscles for explosive contractions ie sprinting weight lifting etc. You are correct about creatine retaining water in the cell and making the muscle more volumized. But it allows you to crank out a extra rep or two and thats what causes the contractile tissue ( muscle fiber) to grow. BUT thier is some talk of the fascia being stretched with creatine allowing more room for growth, but thats not proven really.
@KamMedia creatine does not have anabolic properties, it has energy properties. It also has ZERO calories. Since it supplies ATP energy your able to do a rep or two MORE than usual and that causes more muscle damage, thus a little more growth during repair.
I don't know what to think of Scooby. He's knows quite a bit. Seems like a decent guy, but he's a little odd. Does he do power or speed movements? He doesn't look like he does. He needs some neck training in my opinion. He looks more like he's geared for SHOW,...and not for GO. But to each his own I guess.
This next guy victor kosta so called guru is even worse with the slow lifting thing, this guy is repping out 25 pounds and saying its all you need to grow. For one thing it looks funny in the gym, and i dont think you can build a 18 inch arm lifting 25 pound dumbells, nor should anyone want to.
And he lifts really light weights that sometimes in the demonstrations i wish he used his working weight. And thiers no explosive power at all in his lifts, and thats really crucial to making alot of gains, and i question if he lifted hard and explosive when he started to build his body cuze it is impressive, then started the slow thing after misleading people thats how muscles grow cuze they look at him and go, hey hes doing it that way. But still better than tony horton.
Does it help with cardio?

@johnosandra
sorry to hear that man. Ive stopped taking mine for the past 3 weeks. The extreme brittleness and falling out of my hair is now mostly stopped. I dont know if it raises DHT in some or not, or if it effects hair follicles through some other mechanism, i really dont know, but what i do know is that it does affect my hair in a bad way.
May be ok for most people but not for me unfortunately
so your 17 or 24? which, youve been taking it since 17 did you mean? STOP TAKING IT
arsenalmanic 1 year ago
@arsenalmanic nah man just 17 its says im 24 on youtube because when i first signed up i wasnt able to watch kimbo slice fights lol
ive been taking it since i was 14
on an off
i think my hairs gone because of the elevated level or fluctuations of testosterone
i put on muscle very quickly partly because of the protien and creatine partly because i train hard

I weigh 355 lbs and workout three times a week for an hour with a trainer. I plan to start jogging 5 times a week for an hour at a time. I am 37 years old. My plan is to lose about 120 or more pounds within a year. I lift light weights to tone up. Would you suggest me using creatine?

@SuperCraigger No, creatine will not help with weight loss. I also suggest you walk instead of jog at least until you've lost some weight. You also need to get an idea of your total daily calorie intake.

i have heard that its best to take creatine with grape juice. why? also does it matter what type, i prefer white grape juice. the reason why i ask is because of during the loading phase you take it a few times a day.
lilwopaho 1 year ago
@lilwopaho because of the sugar in the grape juice, it helps the absorption of the creatine by spiking your insulin level up. i always mix some dextrose in with my post workout shake to achieve that.

Oh yeah, another question: I have the GNC Amplified N.O. loaded pre workout powder which has Creatine in it. There's so much frikin caffeine in it, so my trainer told me to use only 1/3 of a scoop (seeing that i'm only 150lbs). Would you say this product gives proper creatine and I should start taking this before a gym workout???
New2Fitness 1 year ago
I'm NEW to all of this so please no thumbs down or nasty comments, but I have a question: You take the Creatine BEFORE you workout? And if you do, is that so you get a "better" workout?

Steve, I like the practical approach you take to fitness. Many professionals spend so much time focusing on minor things that just confuse people. That said, I've been working out for a year now and cycling creatine the last few months. In your opinion, is it necessary to cycle creatine or would one have similar gains by staying on a small dose like 3-5g all the time? Thanks!

you should also note that it does that but it also hydrates your muscle cells so they perform better when u are working out.
from experience you will have a different work out when working out on creatine then when not on creatine.
this is a really good supplement to take to build muscle fast
you do want to get a good amount of water while taking this to

As far as I know, all that creatine does is it retains water so that when you work out more oxygen and red blood cells are able to flow to the muscle which causes them to grow faster. This guy is making up this bullshit just to sound smart. What a joke.
dookysplatter 2 years ago
@dookysplatter what Steve is saying is correct about creatine. It supplies ATP energy to muscles for explosive contractions ie sprinting weight lifting etc. You are correct about creatine retaining water in the cell and making the muscle more volumized. But it allows you to crank out a extra rep or two and thats what causes the contractile tissue ( muscle fiber) to grow. BUT thier is some talk of the fascia being stretched with creatine allowing more room for growth, but thats not proven really.

iKamMedia 2 years ago
@KamMedia creatine does not have anabolic properties, it has energy properties. It also has ZERO calories. Since it supplies ATP energy your able to do a rep or two MORE than usual and that causes more muscle damage, thus a little more growth during repair.

I don't know what to think of Scooby. He's knows quite a bit. Seems like a decent guy, but he's a little odd. Does he do power or speed movements? He doesn't look like he does.

This next guy victor kosta so called guru is even worse with the slow lifting thing, this guy is repping out 25 pounds and saying its all you need to grow. For one thing it looks funny in the gym, and i dont think you can build a 18 inch arm lifting 25 pound dumbells, nor should anyone want to.
SpartanLife1821 2 years ago
And he lifts really light weights that sometimes in the demonstrations i wish he used his working weight. And thiers no explosive power at all in his lifts, and thats really crucial to making alot of gains, and i question if he lifted hard and explosive when he started to build his body cuze it is impressive, then started the slow thing after misleading people thats how muscles grow cuze they look at him and go, hey hes doing it that way. But still better than tony horton.
