    In this episode of Bodybuilding Simplified, we will go over everything that you need to know about creatine! First of all, we will tackle the creatine dosage, and i will tell you if you should take the 5 grams of creatine per day that everyone recommends, or if you should take a completely different amount. Then we will compare the creatine loading phases. There are 2 types of loading phases that you can choose from: The slow loading phase, and the fast loading phase. Both of them are viable, but on my opinion, one of them reings supreme. Of course we cant forget about creatine timing, which has always been a heated point of discussion, so we will go over that as well. Then we will take a look at which type of creatine is the best. Is it creatine monohydrate, or is there a better one? After that, we will be debunking the thing that everyone fears, and it is the possibility of hair loss from using creatine. Lastly, we will go over water retention caused by creatine, and the importance of creatine for vegans and vegetarians.

    I just started creatine a week or so ago, I immediately felt a difference mentally, strength & recovery wise, and I didn't even know my brain was impacted until I read a study and realized I did in fact feel a little more clear headed. I went from 140 to 147-8 even 149 in a matter of days. DRINK WATER, I drink a 33 oz bottle twice a day, and then some. I should have started earlier. No bowel issues, but again this is how I feel and everyone is different.

    Creatine stores as phosphocreatine which refills the 'P' that gets used when ATP (TriPhosphate) gets spent into ADT (DiPhosphate). Having the extra creatine available helps the ADP turn back into ATP quicker, for better performance

      I took creatine just fine when I was 32 and never saw any effects. Started again at 35-36 and I developed a legit bald spot on my crown. Just to be safe, I stopped using creatine, and at 40 my hair filled back in. Not full like when I was younger, but definitely no bald spot like I had 5 years ago.

You suggested either 8 reps or 10 reps for the exercises. Would a good progressive overload goal be 8-12 and 10-14? I am gona focus on my form first but want to start employing progressive overload once I get that down.

      yes, take it. it will help you at the gym or with whatever exercise you are doing, it increases energy and performance. it also has mental cognitive benefits. it will not make you retain weight at all (except a bit of water in the muscles which makes them look fuller and bigger a little bit.) there is no reason not to take it.

    Been training naturally since 2012 only using whey and good food. Ofc had some breaks here and there because of exams at Uni and such. When I started someone who was more advanced than me back then told me Creatine could cause kidney stones and because of it I've always steered away from it. At 1m73 and ranging between 79-83kg I'm doing some pretty good lifts I would say. Bench: 130kg, deadlift: 225kg and squat: 160kg.
    Now, is it true what that guy told me once? And should I consider it based on what I'm doing now?

    • @jhacklack
      @jhacklack Місяць тому

      No it's not true, kidney stones are made of calcium compounds, creatine does not contain calcium so it can't make kidney stones. Creatine becomes creatine-phosphate in your blood, so if anything it helps prevent the formation of calcium-phosphate that leads to kidney stones (this is not medical advice). If you don't have a history of kidney stones in your family then don't worry about it. If you are feeling pain or are starting to piss blood then see a doctor immediately (this is medical advice).

    After a 20g per day for 7 days loading period and another week of 5g per day my blood test came back for Kreatin-kináz (CK) as 450 where normally 171 U/l would be max that is considered normal. Unsure about the effects. Just wanted to put it out there as it was flagged. Also as a 98 kg person consuming around 200-210g of protein per day my Karbamid was flagges as 7.7 is above the normal 2.8-7.2 threshold and it is usually caused by consuming loads of protein.
    Everbody is different. There's no take away here really. Just sharing.

    I just want to do creatine because i did my first year of weight lifting without eating anything high protein and did not diet and then I’m going to do one cycle and do my second year actually trying.

    at any moment do you explain the purpose and gains of taking creatine ?
    to have water retention in the muscles ?
    ?

      They increase force which means you can lift heavier which means more tension on the muscles.
      Plenty of studies show creatine builds a bit more extra muscle in the long term
