BoxerScott Posted May 3, 2003 Share Posted May 3, 2003 I was gonna stay out of this thread because the issue of supplements is generally a very shady area, however, I will comment... You must realize: Creatine is NOT an anabolic steroid. Its not an "enchancer" per se, but an aid. Creatine is actually a nutrient found naturally in our bodies, and it's made from a combination of the three amino acids arginine, glycine and methionine. The main function of creatine is providing energy to your muscles for movements, especially quick and explosive movements. Your body gets its creatine from food and/or supplements. You can imagine then, that taking extra creatine monohydrate will help you out during workouts. Fact: 3 out of 4 Major Athletes (including Olympians) take Creatine. Its not a cheat nor a substitute to gaining "quick-mass", if you take Creatine, you probably workout, which means the mass you are putting on is real muscle... Here's a link to a good source, I suggest your read up before you starting taking, knowledge is power. CreatineMonohydrate.net Just my 2 cents... -Boxer ScottBoxingIwama Aikido Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jmy77 Posted May 12, 2003 Share Posted May 12, 2003 Th ecreatine itself probably didn't bulk you up.. the extra reps did. But its feels good to get results.
