Taking both Creatine and Protein, is that any good?

[Sven72]

hey Sven, what brand are you taking? I am considering trying out the Axis pills

hey mate,

in response to your creatine query the brand I'm taking is called Body Science. First time I've had it so I cant really comment on how good it is compared to others. On my next cycle I'm going to try a liquid creatine, as I train at 6am on want something that can get in my system quickly so I dont have to be up taking pills at 5am. It takes about 1 hour to absorb the creatine into your system in pill/powder form. 20 mins in liquid form.

there are a lot of arguments for and against creatine, but I can't say I've noticed any bad side effects and have not had much weight gain which is good. I would certainly use it again.

Give it a try and if you don't like it stop.

Wow there is a lot of bad information on this thread.

#1. You should look into what exactly it is a supplement does before you ingest it, and be sure you are ingesting it correctly.

#2. Creatine is a great and proven suplpement for all athletes, and yes boxing. It does not just "put water in your muscle".


Research your supplements before taking them or posting terrible in-factual advice

I agree.....there is not too much credibility here....

Creatine works fabulous...it has been rigorously tested since the 50's....Creatine is used as energy by your muscles along with glycogen, ATP, sucralose and oxygen. It is also produced and synthesized by the body as well ( this is why you cycle creatine...when you are on it the bodies production of creatine slows dramatically....staying on creatine too long could eliminate your bodies production altogether )...

On a cellular level creatine allows each cell to retain more water. Your body is 70% water already, creatine attaches and controls the cells that dictate how much water weight your body holds and allows it to be pumped into each muscle....

Size On by Gaspari has a really good matrix of creatines in it and is what I recommed to anyone who wants to try creatine.. It also has plenty of Glycogen and glucose for sustained energy during workouts....

I have used the Ethyl Ester's without much luck....monohydrate is terrible for making you bloated.....In the end, I dont use creatine because of it effects on bloating and water retention...but it does work!

Do a pubmed.org search for creatine and find out the facts yourself. There's a ton of credible info out there if you're willing to do the research. Instead of asking a bunch of non-experts, get it straight from the horse's mouth.

What I do is when I wake up I drink 2 protein shakes. During my workout I drink 1 protein shkes while working out, when I get home from the gym I drink 1 glass of creatine. Now I asked people at my local GNC and they said it was good to take both and I asked a couple of people and they didnt recomend it. You guys know if this is healthy for you? Thanx.

I have taken both before.I would never recommend creatine to anyone.You are forever puffed.
