Dang, as a 31 year old. its quite refreshing hearing a 19 year old talk about his training.
Makes you remember how you were yourself. So fresh, so eager to learn and train! :-)
shutup
Tried creatine about 20 times over my 17 year lifting career and i can honestly say for me it does absolutely nothing. Like i might aswell eat flour.. zero.
Why would u use itb20x if it did notjing?
By 'does nothing', do you mean it doesn't even change your body weight by 3-4 pounds? Coz if that's the case, it would be easy to know if you are a non responder.
I think it depends on the brand in my experience
I feel people watching are all like-minded people. I'm 17, I'm training and starting creatine and had the exact same question as him and I'm gonna start breakdance. OMG the common points !
"Rectally" haha!
Great question from a smart young man!
I took creatine right away in the beginning of weight lifting so I never noticed a difference because I did not have anything to compare it to so I think I'm gonna get off it and see if there is a difference been on it for a little over 2 months.
been lifting for around 8 years right now. Creatine Monohydrate never worked for me, and always gave me stomach aches. The best thing that's worked out for me is Beta Alanine. Especially doing a bodybuilding split, it helps me push sm more
Pretty sure I'm a non responder. Creatine also fucks up my stomach and I get the shits 30 seconds after taking it. Lowered the dose to 2grams and I don't get the shits but I don't see any effects.
dang that sucks. creatine was like steroids for me, I had all kinds of gains.
@@willh1655 me to
Being a non responder is a good thing, it means your muscles are already fully saturated with creatine without the need of supplementation so you get to save a couple of bucks!
Try with 3grams. Tbh u don’t need 5.
@@willh1655 all kinds yeeeeeea
I love the tshirt messages.
Everytime this guy makes a statement it sounds like a question.
that's how they sound on the west coast from CA to UT
"Upspeak"😄
it subconsciously telegraphs to the listener that you have no confidence in what you're saying..
I've been taking creatine I don't notice any difference.
Not good maaan
@@Jeff-sp7bg lol why?
@@principlemethods5281I've experienced the same thing have you ever thought about increasing the amount of creatine? I'm thinking of doing so
For how long if it’s not longer then 3 weeks assuming ur not lading you won’t see any benefits yet
@@kianlahey608 I took it for months. Then got off and there was no difference
I think creatine akg is the way to go if you dont feel benefits from creatine powder
Non responder mostly respond greatly to akg creatine
what brand would you recommend for akg
@@noahbritton5636 Doesnt really matter, just look for AKG and that it has the least fillers etc. and choose wich one you like
Vancouver island usually doesn't even get snow in the winter...
should i take something called rad 140 creatine ?
yes
@@rayrocker2112 lol
No just take the anavar version of Creatine
What would you expect from creatine usage? How would you know if it’s working or is or is t working for you other than just stopping taking it. There must be some kind of noticeable changes.
You just feel stronger and more toned tbh. You can feel it for sure and the myth about being bloated is 🧢
@@hauvkuabyang7467 so it doesnt make your muscles look fuller. Only gives you more stamina?
@@siriusblack7714 Yes, it can/does make your muscles seem a little bit bigger as well. U can put on from about 1 to 3 pounds.
Did he ever follow-up?
Yes, he's actually Sam Sulek!
I went from benching 40kg to 80kg in 2 weeks of taking creatine. Noobie gains but still massive difference post creatine.
wtf
Nah that's impossible 🧢
@@AlexanderCastro-zb8bb ngl, pretty sure I could lift more just never attempted it. Good chest genetics. Pretty stagnant everywhere else
I've been thinking that I'm a non responder to creatine, but your comment makes me realize otherwise. I was flat bench dumbell pressing 14kg at a full set of 10 as my max. I started creatine and within 2 weeks I'm doing full sets of 28kg dumbbells as my max, and think I can actually do sets of 5 at 30kg dumbbells. I just pinned it down to newbie gains, natural strength, good genetics and a bit of muscle memory from being active in high school, but I guess I'm definitely a responder too
@@AlexanderCastro-zb8bb Not really. His form might've improved while gaining strength
Get off it and do some fasting and keto, the two things that make you start feeling weaker and then get on the creatine again. You will know after that for sure.
Oof I’d rather live with not knowing than subjecting myself to keto
@@imaj6566 that’s what I was thinking 😂
keto is one of the most stupid ideas anyone can use besides children with epilepsia
small responder at 20-30%
If you eat a carnivore diet w/over 2# of beef daily, do you need to supplement creatine?
@Mystic thanks for your concern but my heart lipids and bp are optimal
@@Snapkrackpop dude probably still thinks sat' fats and cholesterol are bad for you lol
@@nofood1 I mean everything in excess is bad, also not all bodies react identically to the same diets.
good question and still no real answer. I'm not a dr but from what I've read 1# of beef = 1-2g creatine when RAW, cooking it decreases the creatine. I'm a rare to medium rare beef eater by preference and it turns out that it helps to save the creatine content. however you will produce 1-2g naturally if youre eating whole proteins. "Your body can produce creatine from the amino acids glycine and arginine ( 1 ). About half of your body's creatine stores come from the food you eat - especially red meat and seafood - and the rest is made in your liver and kidneys from amino acids"
@@nofood1 my LDL is 60. Trigs are 45. HdL is 65. I think I’ll live!! My uric acid
Creatine monohydrate suppository pills 💊 😆
Bro I started taking creatine again and lost like 20lbs of strength and stopped and gained it all back
Creatine used to give me like a teeny tiny little perceiveable energy boost.
The very first thing I would notice after taking my dose was the increased heart rate.
The way I would take it: 1 heaping 5mg scoop in 1 gallon of water, consuming the entire mix within 60 minutes.
I would dose up about 90 minutes before my workout. And I would do full body work for 2 hours. And then dose up on glutamine 30 minutes after body work.
My diet was high in meat and carbs and leafy greens.
I was trying to gain weight. I never did.
Heaviest I've ever been was 174 lbs.
I'm hovering around 150 lbs for the past 3 years.
I always get really strong, but I don't seem to put in mass.
1 gallon in 60 minutes, thats literally dangerous levels of water consumption.
For people such as myself and you, we need to start counting calories on apps such as MyFitnessPal to really gain weight, otherwise we would just be eating really inconsistently.
"Gallon of water in 60 minutes"
Everyday people suprise me with how incredibly stupid they are...you sir are no exception
What do u eat?
@@HawkNocturnal gallon of water 💧
How do you know if you're not a responder? By the end of the video, we still don't know...unless we're not responding to it.
a lot of people say only use German creapure, is it necessary? Why or why is it not necessary? Thank you
Its just highest and pure quality
But generelly any creatine wich says its micronized, is practically the same as creapure
Creapure is just a brand with patent of micronized creatine
So if you found a company you trust and think is transparent wich has micronized creatine, just buy that
German creatine is just more pure. But were talking like 1 percent more pure
@@siriusblack7714 some consider 1 percent a big deal, what's your opinion ?
Im doing calisthenics basics and resistance band training mostly full body or upper upper lower and Hiit.. how much creatine should i take....
3-5 gm/ day
He might not eating enough protein
Spender holla at me I will help you out
I think that a fitness enthusiast who just wants to get stronger, bigger, more active and useful in all physical aspects of life should stay away from these supplements and performance boosters.
Protein shakes and a multivitamin are more than than enough if your overall diet plan is dialed in properly and workouts comprise major strength and mass builders like squats, deadlifts, chin up, overhead presses, etc. and their variants then results do come gradually and are quite sustainable over long time.
creatine is very well researched and one of the best supplements
@@CesarTorres-kn3pl yes it is safe also
Huh? Why? There’s no reason to bro, it’s not fucking steroids.
