Creatine Did it work for you?

[vinylgroover]

Whether or not it "works" depends on what you're are expecting it to do. Sounds like some of you are expecting it to make you grow. If that's the case, no wonder you think it sucks. All creatine will do is allow for more P to combine with ADP to make ATP so that you can work out longer/harder. THAT, in turn, might make you grow, but creatine alone will not.

Creatine and anavar work on the same pathway. Take them together and you may see some VERY nice results. You can also lay off the var and maintain the creatine, providing a taper effect for the receptor, and allowing for increased maintenance of gains.

I don't use creatine. I never felt like I needed more workout energy, nor did I feel any more while on it. If I were using anavar in the future, I might try it again.

That's precisely the reason the supplement market should be regulated. I'm tired of all the bullshit supplement companies ripping people off through misinformation and misleading advertising

I wasn't referring to "stimulant" energy. Just what you were talking about. Your muscles don't "peter out" because they have more fuel...ATP.

I know, but when you say "energy", that's what I think of.

How helpful do you think good mornings are in improving your deadlift? I've never really done them, but they seem to be such a staple of power lifters that I'm going to start including them as of tomorrow.

The best good moring variation for increasing the deadlift is Chain Suspended bent over good mornings...using a saftey squat bar.

Here's the thread with other variations....

Thanks dude.

What's a "safety squat bar"? Is that referring to the rack it's done in or what?

I find the limiting factor to be my joints. I have hit my joint limits 6 times. Using nothing, creatine, AAS, HGH/slin/AAS, supplements. I hit a point where my joints feel like they may break and that is all she wrote.
I'll never be a power lifter.

ditto. But creatine works great for me. Increased strength significantly as well as endurance. I believe that it may cause a much higher susceptibilty to pulls and tears as some researchers believe.

The bar has a yoke built in...and the plates are set forward of where they normally would be. The bar tried to throw you forward...so you have to fight it back. Thats what makes it so effective.

PM me if you need any help....

Cool. Thanks dude. I'm exploring powerlifting a little more these days. I'll hit you up if I have any questions.

Just wanted to add that the best GM for deadlift carry over can vary by how you deadlift.

Sorry, point taken...wouldn't want to forget those of you that do it sumo style. My recommendation was for people that deadlift conventional.

Creatine doesn't work, YOU have to work! I find I can workout longer when on it and go harder in my workouts.. thus more gains !

I did a log a couple months ago on APS creatine Nitrate and MesoMorph. What I like most was I felt no bloating with the creatine nitrate like I use to with Mono. Saw gains in strength and recoverd quicker. I am now using MAN 's Orthine, I ordered off OrbitNutrition.com I have creatine as a staple and always will.
