What is your Favorite Brand of CREATINE?

[DELETED ACCOUNT 06]

When you train, the muscle fibres tear apart, and to heal more muscle fibre is produced between where the tear was. So muscles ache and get bigger through this process.

I think creatine aids this replacement and makes it faster - so you have less aching and can train harder without fear of leaving yourself incapacitated the following day. Also is means your muscles grow faster because the fibre tears are being replaced quicker.

Thats what i think creatine is, i could be wrong. I used to work with a body builder who took it. I've never took it, can't be arsed to pay for it and i naturally have a lot of muscle anyway.

I think ricky hatton uses it, amongst a lot of others.

Take it if you want, its not illegal. But only a fool would put some suppliment into there body without knowing what the **** it is.

And you're barking up the right tree there Micky, more creatine seems to (sometimes) induce faster or more efficient hypertrophy. As for boxing, it does (ahem, can) act as an ATP shuttle, increasing the amount of free ATP theoretically enhancing one's energy output over the short term. Boxing is a rather anaerobic sport in fact, but even still, in this man's estimation, it is not needed, especially when you consider the side effects it can have.

what side effects can it have

and boxing is only like 40 minutes tops!

most weight lifting body builders work out 40 to 60 minutes when they work out with weights....so creatine and stuff like no explode helps.
some fighters should take no xplode right before they fight, i think manny pacquaio does thast why he has so much energy.

the fights are not long at all and you need stuff that helps you push for htat little bit extra.

what side effects have you experienced? I have experienced none so far when i used it in the past except for maybe a little bloating.

My bodybuilder friend got that alot. He seemed to fart all day long, stinky bastard haha.

As for domain saying that he only boxing trains for 40 minutes a day?? I train alot harder than that. At shortest i train hard for an hour and longest 2 and a half to 3 hours, when you get your sweat on, warm ups warm downs and get some technique done.

And manny pac doesn't have super energy because he has creatine, he has super energy because he's manny pac and he's a super fit, world champion boxer.

^your naive! I seen he had a bottle of supps in his room in some interview on the net he said he take vitamins...how can a guy retain that punching power and speed up to the later rounds? its not normal bro ill bet you he takes some kinda energy booster like no xplode that gets you hyper with caffiene.

I'm sure its true that he takes some kind of suppliments. But i doubt thats the reason he has all that energy. Lets face it - by your logic, this 'no xplode' is so great, anyone who takes it becomes some kind of super human.

I'm sure his energy has got more to do with his excellent physical conditioning rather than his intake of caffiene powder. The punching power is more manny and less 'no xplode'. If you think otherwise? Then that is really naive.

'Creatine monohydrate induces an increase in body mass while increasing muscular energy reserves. Creatine augments energy levels by increasing the availability of ATP, the organic compound that yields energy for muscular contraction. Boxers must be careful however when supplementing with creatine, as it can cause moderate weight gain due to water retention by the skeletal muscle.

Creatine (if used correctly) can increase strength and explosive power without weight gain. It can help you get more out of your workout while improving recovery between sessions. Boxers should only supplement with 2 to 5 grams per day. Check this article for information regarding creatine supplementation without weight gain:

AST's Micronized Creatine is one of the best creatine products available, at a reasonable price.'

dude...you have to be kidding with some of these posts. Is it not possible the pac man is just a tremendous athlete? He is one of the best and most talented atletes in the sport. It is NOT because he takes NO explode that he can go into later rounds and retain. Is it a combination of his genetics, work ethic, lung capacity, training regimen, diet, natural body type, supplements ,maybe. But to say that he is who is because of Creatine is ridiculious. Yeah that stuff may help but come on man.
