Body building over 50 would be nice to see
Very informative video. Thank you!
Drank a strong coffee and 10 mins later did my first creatine dose ever.
Best almost 2hr workout ever.
In this video it explained the focus of creatine. This video goes in depth of how it works. Creatine is a great supplement to use. Creatine is naturally produced within your body. When you supplement with it you end up filling your creatine storages to the max, which is a good thing. Creatine is absorbed with in the baseline of your muscles. When creatine is absorbs it will make you look fuller because the water staying in your muscles. When you go to use creatine, it is converted into ATP. TO sum up ATP it is used for explosive movements. When ATP is being used it is usually for heavy lifts, or high repetition workouts. So, in a sense you will be able to lift more reps for a longer time.
3:07 "not only is that practically not feasible" NIGGA WUT?!
I remember in high school there were tons of research reports done by students (and even stories from the teachers) about how creatine was horrible, it was dangerous, it destroyed your liver, it didn't work, and that we shouldn't use it, etc…
I'm actually a creatine non responder…had my levels checked by blood work…already naturally higher than normal levels
How much water per kg/pound of BW would you recommend when on creatine? THANKS!
Should of talked about hair loss
Is it dangerous to take 20-30 grams in one dose (one drink)?
Are you guys still hooking up?
Is just me but I sweat out of nowhere when I take creatine
You look like Captain America and Adam Sandlers love child. Good info though!
it's making me piss way too much… I'm gonna back off
Omar I love your videos man. I love the way you present the information, you are very professional and your channel has changed my outlook towards bodybuilding. But I'd love to see you with short hair , come on man cut it out, it'll give you a mote masculine look. Thanks for all your videos.
Now I know I don’t need any of this garbage. I look bigger and better than dude, when he was on it .. and I only ingest food
Very informative. Thank you!
Hes takes more then creatine lol
A natural version of roids just not as good in the appearance of the muscle
I want to cut my belly fat off and get lean now can I just do creatine for breakfast lunch and dinner and workout
Great information
just the fact that the sample size was 9 people for the caffeine and creatine study is enough to dismiss it as a junk result…
Done and dusted..
Bro i like your shirt, does it come in men’s ?
I take my creatine in my morning coffee so I hope its not fuckin me!?
Great info what I wanted to know I’m 63 and I’m starting creatine because of all the positive research I keep hearing that it raises your blood pressure from some and some say it doesn’t affect it could you set me straight Thanks
Bull shit creating the fake look of having muscles by forcing water in the muscles! Is fakeee and this guys a moron… a creatine cannot build a muscle impossible…😂
Creatine HCL owns mono…atleast for me. I don’t bloat and feel and look jacked.
Fun Fact: Dr. Helms had Judge Napolitano's hairline before he started abusing his creatines! Stay clean kids.
A loading phase costs 2.89$ as opposed to a normal phase of 72C
I personally don;t consider 2 dollars a lot of money.
In honor of modern law and accessibility advancements of cannabis, please make a video on strength training and ingestion
I like the video
Been having puffy eye bags lately, thinking creatine. Is there a fix?
I took too many capsules of the recommended dose of Magnum's Big C's which is most likely why I apparently became anemic with an inflammed liver off my blood test results, but maybe my reducible inguinal hernia may be a factor.
My liver apparently had no issues though off my radiology.
I have until July 12 to finally get a new blood test to see if I'm still anemic with high ATL.
… Gotta say. I can't wait to take creatine again.
As for the supplement shakes, I'll finish what I have left but include it into recipes to not fuck up my liver.
It's hard to get a doctor, so I haven't properly figured out what's wrong with me…
German creatine creapure is the gold standard when it comes to purity. Other creatines that do not have the creapure label on it are made in China, which would be considered low quality. Would you buy a German car or a Chinese car? So My question is that let's say If I order a micronized creatine from a top brand company that does NOT have a creapure label on it, do you believe that it would be considered a very low quality creatine to put into my body because it was made in China having possible toxicities in it? Thank you
Great video
This dude is the truth.
What creatine do you take
