      @Bible_Bro 6 місяців тому +1

      Loading phases just get creatine in your muscles faster like a week or so. Bc creatine draws water to your muscles making them bigger. They are definitely not necessary. I wouldn’t recommend doing it as it can have side affects like cramps and diarrhea if you don’t drink enough water.

    • @jimsuess8891
      @jimsuess8891 5 місяців тому

      No, like it said in the video, it will probably make you gain lbs due to increasing muscle size. I’d be less worried about your weight. If you want to lose fat, you should lift heavy weights very carefully for 6-10reps per set. Cardio doesn’t help burn fat as efficiently as lifting. This is something that I didn’t understand for many years.

    One scoop of the Do Not Age product in a glass of water doesn't seem to dissolve very well. Most of it ends up at the bottom of the glass. I imagine in a cold shake, it barely dissolves at all. Happy to provide pics.

    I've been training calisthenics for over a year now and want to try creatine but have a couple of questions about loading.
    #1 should I load? I want to gain weight but I don't want to put it on too fast and then have to go backwards with my skills training, due to gaining weight faster than strength.
    #2 will loading effect joints, bones and tendons, which, as i understand, need to develop with the muscles in order to support calisthenic skills without causing injury.
    All opinions welcome.

Not all people who take steroids are ballooned boys, when you struggle to gain weight normally that is an option, steroids taken in moderation is safe. Just like anyrhibg in life too much is bad for you, i did it to gain some weight and i put on 2 stone taking me up to 12. And dont forget some people need steroids for medical conditions, yoy say it is disgusting but there are far worse things you can put into your body such as heroin.

      You can just take 5g a day without loading (he does explain in the vid) it just takes around a couple of weeks to a month to saturate muscles. To be honest, i loaded taking 5g 4 times a day but it did give me nausea. Id just take 5g a day and not bother loading if i were to stop and restart (but i wont as its cheap enough from Myprotein!)
