How many of you take creatine /fit/? Does it work?
delete your thread.
it works
not as much as ppl think but it works
>>40924004
Pretty much, but I definitely notice a slight increase in my energy levels - perhaps 15%.
>>40924034
This
I find I have more energy since taking creatine for the last month or so
>>40923995

5g 2 hours prior to excerice.
Remember to cycle or your body will stop producing it naturally.
ITT: fitness industry shills

>people who have literally just a minimum wage job and can therefore afford basic supplements are shills
please end me
>>40923995
lost all my hair and gains from using creedeen don't make the same mistake i made bro
>>40923995
Dunno, took 100 g once, didn't feel anything. Waste of money, desu.
>>40924377
>Remember to cycle or your body will stop producing it naturally.
Source? I've never heard this.
And does it matter when you take it or how much? I just take two scoops of it with my protein shake whenever. I think that's 20mg overall a day.

?
>>40924556
>not knowing creatine is found naturally in red meat
Yep, and the hair thing is just a meme.
There is literally no reason not to take it.
>>40924601
5g is the normal daily dose of creatine, what kind of scoop is 0,01g, are you retarded?
>>40923995
>my first shipment ever is scheduled to arrive tomorrow
>the day after that i am going to have my first training on it
I am honestly scared you guys, what if the hair loss meme is a reality ?
>>40925159
You will feel no different
It usually takes a week for it to take effect, but you will still not notice any difference
You will not lose hair, probably
>>40924396
creatine is like $20 for a 200 day supply (1kg)
I guess you could shill for creatine but there's not much point. And then there's no guarantee that they would even buy your brand
now ON whey protein shills on the other hand are very real
Creatine is just a meme that makes you bald
>>40925202
yeah the thing about creatine is you just have to kind of trust in the science behind it. It's not like it gives you insane strength gains or energy or something. But you'll have better intraworkout recovery/etc than you would if you weren't taking it.
>>40923995
Yes it definitely works.
After taking it I dont have to go to the barber anymore. Saved me a ton of money.
>>40924377
False.
>>40924779
Just read the scientific paper, you creationist, anti-vaccin republican.

using ON double choc led to acne in my case.
anything bad happened to you ?
>>40923995
10mg before workout. That's it.
It works
Definitely works for me, put about 10-15 lbs on my big lifts. Stopped taking it because my hair started falling out (faster than usual)
>>40923995
Howd you get so big?
Me? Test and d.. Uh... Crea.. Yea creatine!
>>40923995
creatine is a trap don't do it

>>40924377
This is a meme. It does not damage natural production.
>>40923995
what is even its purpose?
>>40927943
Forces your muscles to absorb water and thereby increase in mass. It makes you bigger.
>>40923995
Gotta cycle it if you don't want to shrink your dick.
>>40928882
This is such fucking bullshit
>>40927943
It increases the amount of energy available for the first few seconds/reps of exercise before the cell has to switch to another metabolic pathway. This lets you work harder in the gym. A salutary side effect is that muscle cells (yes, pretty much just muscle cells) will draw in more water to maintain osmotic balance when you start supplementing creatine, making them bigger.
I can't take a lot of carbs because they cause me acne, is creatine the way to go for that extra boost? I feel exhausted after my workouts.
It makes me cum more, no lie. Also gives me energy, and I do feel more muscle.
Also, you have to drink alot of water if you take creatine. But if you drink alot of water in general you're cool.
>>40930004
That's probably because creatine increases DHT which is a more potent form of testosterone. That's also why people think it can cause baldness.
>>40930004
no hair loss?
>>40929889
>>40929380
this, I feel really exhausted and by the end of the week (4 day workout) I'm basically dead tired
I was using it for a while but then I started getting a bald spot that eventually grew to about the size of a 50 cent piece on the back of my scalp so I stopped. The spot took about 6 months to grow back and I haven't started creatine again. I don't know if it was the creatine of alopecia arreata due to stress or something but it sucked. I luckily have thick hair and starting to bald scared me. I know I'm luckier than many others in this regard though.
>>40930322
welp, I'm never taking it then, fuck that.
>>40930322
also, how much were you taking? Apparently everything over 3 grams a day is bad for your hair.
>>40923995
I took it before, it worked better when I took it with weight gainer like serious mass. Just seeing all of the combined effects and water retention was like, fucking amazing. Drink lots of water, I just took a spoon full of it and chased it with water. Shit does not mix well.
>>40930062
>>40930063
Dang, never knew that.
No noticeable hair loss.
I have been taking it for a while. not sure if it is helping or not. I don't even feel bloated.
>>40925391
2007 called, it wants it's easy target back
I have taken it in periods from 2010 to now (on it right now) and i never experienced hairloss, or dick-shrinking or whatever.
The only thing i noticed is that you put on water weight and manages add maybe one extra rep.
And i take it because that extra water actually makes me feel better. I don't know if it's placebo or if my water don't detain enough water by itself, but I don't care since it's a cheap supplement.

I bet you just started working out
>>40925940
Lol does it have uranium in it for gainz?
>>40930062
Yes this exactly
If you are DHT sensitive creatine will speed up hairloss
If you have the genetics of a god(like myself) your hair follicles won't give a fuck
>>40923995
i took it but it gave me the shits so i stopped.
if you try it, be wary of caffeine until you are sure you will not shart yourself.

Vegetables builds muscles 13,5x faster than creatine

>tfw Creatine dreams
Don't do it op
I work in a gas station and every week some crehead comes in trying to rob us to buy his next fix
You can always tell who's a crehead by the twitching, gibbering and male pattern baldness
5g of standard monohydrate, taken daily in a shake.
I prefer unflavoured.
I buy creapure brand but any will do.
