An obvious side effect of Creatine is that it makes me watch way too many Creatine videos on You Tube.

Some dude tried explaining me creatine should actually be swallowed and not snorted. Can't believe somebody would swallow that stuff instead of snorting it lol

Correction: Creatine is not necessarily an amino acid although it can by synthesized from other amino acids. Sorry for the jumble folks!

I just want to appreciate you for these videos! Thank you

surprised the answer wasn't "depends"

Your content is always short yet so full of good information , thank you !

Creatine is best/cheapest/ most efficient supplement I've ever used!!

A guy at my gym once told me he was on his first creatine cycle... 🤷🏻‍♂️😂

Your videos are great bro.. quick, intriguing, and full of factual information

I know its not easy making these videos man but you need to make more, often. I got so much knowledge from you, the way you simplify it and your voice makes it so much easier to retain it. You got a gift on that. Still a fan, was listening to you when i barely made it out alive at 119lbs 2017 sept and still pushing from calisthenics to weights. Your info helped me level up faster. Lol. Where did you go?

Nicely done! Thanks for the breakdown.

As someone who was trying to loose weight creating was great in the beginning as I could feel the gain in energy, but the bloating freaked me out as I started gaining weight. I know it’s just water retention but it still had an effect psychologically so I stopped using it. Also the hair loss stuff.

3:16 is the answer

Was researching about this today and you just posted. Thanks 😊

Yes. * roll credits *

Hey picture fit I was wondering what you used to draw and edit your videos? I love what you do and I’m not really comfortable in front of a camera so I wanted to do something similar

Hi, nice content, keep it up. Can you please do a video on artificial sweeteners (sucralose, stevia, aspartame, erythritol etc.) Thanks

The only supplement that ever worked for me.

Please make a video on jumping/jumping higher /increasing vertical

I love that picturefit actually lists his fucking sources. God bless you, man.

Always shocked at how much info on a topic you can pack in to such short videos!

Great video brother. But do I have to take it? Will I make progress without it? It is absolutely necessary ? I’m 49 and work 4 times a week.

This channel posts some of the best content on fitness

I work construction as a laborer and my only fitness goal is to perform my job better. Can you make a video that will point me in the right direction of where I should start or even a link?

After months of researching i decided to eat better and stay natural. The fast muscles is not worth the symptoms you might get in the future

What about creatine hcl???

I’m looking to start taking creatine to try and bulk up more before the summer, but because I’m at uni I drink fairly heavily a couple of nights a week. I’ve read that combining creatine and alcohol can be bad on the liver, so should I just not take it on the days I’m drinking or not take it al all?

I was just thinking about buying creatine and then your video popped up.

I started taking creatine and had the worst diarrhea of my life (I also got a little bit sick for a few days, but don't think it was related). Anyway, I will give it another try when I fully recover, but creatine may give you stomach problems. I've heard of some other people with similar problems.

I have a question, maybe you have heard of this. I am a med student and recently read in a nutrition book that taking creatine over a period of time, will decrease and eventually stop the production of body synthesized creatine... Have you heard of this ?

I really love those vids... short, chill, transparent and it has the most important information in one place

Thanks guys

Good friend of mine is a surgeon/padiatrist and he advised me not to use "that stuff"(Creatine) but instead use grass fed Collagen..

I was expecting the it depends response!

Your videos change my body.

The questions is if it’s safe to not “cycle” off it and continue taking it indefinitely?

Thank you for your efforts. I have Elevated creatinine levels and the first thing i found through online literature is to stop creatine, so it might have some health issues right?

I think you should probably do a follow-up video answering these questions because there are a lot of em...

Can you make a video on accelerating musle growth please😄

Good video

I took creatine for a few months and I've recently stopped for about a month now. I can't really tell if there were any actual change or not when I was taking them. I'd like an advice on this.

My concerns: 1. If you supplement…. Isn’t that dangerous? Meaning if your body does not require more and you take more than your body even needs doesn’t that affect your heart and kidneys and lungs etc ? 2. It’s naturally occurring in our bodies. But that natural occurrence and a lab made synthetic version isn’t the samething. Just my opinion.

It’s safe and although my lifts got a bit better and I gained weight, I also increased body fat so I stopped using it.

' prevent muscle injury during workout ' it's by my personel experience. #true

I’m allergic to red meat so would this be a good idea for me to take to get stronger? Also btw I’m not super close to my genetic potential due to my age but I play hockey and was wondering if this would help me train harder to get better for high school hockey. Should I wait to get this when I’m older and closer to my genetic potential or would you recommend I try it now?

Creatine works great and will make you look noticeably bigger but it definitely gives me muscle cramps in my torso if I don't make a point every day of drinking lots of water. It kinda gets old after awhile so I take breaks from using it.

Are there any studies showing that creatine is not linked to hair loss. I still just know the one showing a correlatiom between creatine supplementation and DHT

Thanks

I would steer clear for as long as possible. I first started taking it by 16. Stoped like 24. Did not get to keep any of creatine gains and look as almost never did lift weight years down. And on creatine experienced many side effects. On the other hand friend of my was veeeery skinny did some light steroids cycle a few times in 4 years. And now even without lifting hes way bigger than me lol. And i did lift serously as these past years before i stopped.

Would you recommend Carnivor Protein from Musclemeds? It contains 2.5 grams of Creatine

A video about if it is necessary to consume something sweet before creatine like honey to absorb it better

Your videos are so helpful. Thanks for sharing your knowledge with the world, and most importantly, with facts.

You should do a video about laxogenin

The answer for once is not "it depends."

I use creatine as post workout. Great results!

I was taking creatine, and damn. I imagine it would feel the same way as taking steroids, but not as extreme. Good pumps and increase in strength. I stopped taking it though because my hair began thinning.

When i take creatine for couple a weeks while i work out i get pretty lean bulky but when i stop using it and still constantly workout i lose all those gains.Thats one side effect for me ! (Month on and month off results)

What about L-carnitine? Can it be used with creatine together?

I had to stop takeing creatine, because i got the thirst of my life and a dry mouth like a desert. And it would not go away, regardless of how much a drank (and im talking about up to 7-8ltr a day for two weeks). Even when i took realy small doses and capsules instead of powder. It worked great, but for me it was poisen

Can you do essential amino acid supplement?

Yes, it is, why do we need everytime to prove this ?

Unfortunately, I had trouble sleeping when I take Creatine and had to stop. I controlled the other variables to make sure it is due to Creatine. Anyone else has this problem?

hello, I´m training at 3 years hypertrophy and was taking at least 2 months creatine 5g or a little more 8g per day and at the end of that 2 months when I was finishing the last pot of 200g of Universal Creatine I felt badly as I was fainting and feeling dizziness, it started one night and stayed until 3 o'clock in the morning the next day, and stopped immediately on that day and getting well, I let it take from there and I no longer felt bad, I suspect it was some exaggeration in the dose or Failure to drink water in the required amount took at max 1.5L to 2L of water.

Get your proteinn I love this channel

*immediately injects 250 cc’s of creatine directly into my arm*

works quite good for me increases of 15-20% in weight lifted and about one kilogram of weight added to body due to water retention

Tribulus.. Gingemg.. Maca root.. Fennu greek.. Shilajit.. Are claming they can vitality.. Pls do about that.. Its important right?

It also improves brain function as a whole

if it's good enough for *Rich Piana* , it's good enough for me

For everyone worried about hair loss, don’t be. There has been shown that if you’re genetically predisposed to early hair loss then it might speed that up by a little, very little. It’s not conclusive and it’s not worth worrying about at all. Stay strong everyone.

so does this mean that I can take creatine supplements without damaging my kidneys by adding more creatinine when the creatine breaks down? if so I need to get back using it

anyone know which software is used to create this videos animation?

Best way to get stamina up?

creatine makes me feel sick for about 30 mins after i take it, but the effects it has in the gym definitely work.

It defo works wonders for performance but honestly it massively speeds up hereditary balding in my experience. Fair warning.

When do you guys suggest taking creatine? I read that you should take it shortly-ish after training and on rest days shortly after waking up. Does that sound good?

I've read that for creatine loading phase you need 20gms per day,but some of the creatine supplements bottle says the recommended usage per day is 5 gm.Can someone pls explain this??? Plssss ?? Anyone???

im hearing a lot left and right that we still dont know the long term repercussions of using creatine

My blood pressure and creatinine levels went up above normal ranges when i started taking creatine. I had to reduce dosage.

Creatine has been great, and even if u don’t notice the effects, it is so cheap the internal benefits of supplementing it are worth it!! Definitely feel it helps with recovery!!

Is drinking pre workout before a run safe ?

Any ideas on how to get a creatine rich diet?

Besides Whey and maybe caffeine, only thing you should consider buying

My opinion is that exercize itself encourages balding if you are not feeding well or trying to overachieve by pushing more at the pace body can't recover itself. To produce joints, nails, skin and hair your body uses collagen, i think for that outter teeth layer as well but i'm not sure. The least usefull or what your body needs the least are nails and hair, priority is on more functional parts of your body which is wearing out. Your body is producing collagen on it's own and there are also supplements. Your worn joints aren't the only issue causing low level of collagen because it's a protein and your body had to make alot more proteins for the muscles you are tearing every workout and for your all other organs. If you intake a bit less calories your body will melt your fat but if you intake a lot less calories it will break down protein from your diet and again it will provide proteins for more important parts, your hair style and big muscle mass means shit compared to your overall health and vital functions. Creatine's hair loss probable theory: Men balds more often then women, men that are more into fitness tend to train more in volume, they need massive amount of nutrient, they wanna have abs to show after that long time invested in workout, they eat less. They are also the most often type to take creatine to have more energy, and offcourse statistically creatine users bald more but it probably doesn't have nothing to do with creatine, you can link it with beast mode and SPARTAAAA attitude(and hollywood, internet, sportswear, supplement, gyms and food companies to put high standards and make you feel like piece of worthless shit if you are not huge and ripped). Put health on the first place, if you're not a professional athlete there is no reason to chase that last few percents of performance, i have never heard of 30+ pro athlete without surgery/es of some kind.

Why am I banned from the server I was afk for 3 months or so

When should you be taking creatine? I have heard some people say preworkout but this just never made sense to me in my understanding of how creatine works, first in how you have to build up to having saturated creatine levels indicates to me that it isn't a short term solution for energy or increase in performance but rather long term, second wouldn't it dehydrate you? even potentially I don't think it's worth it. Anyone have an answer?

The best 👍

i started taking creatine.. it didn't suit me my hair started falling more often so is stopped it.. but other than that yes it made me heavier and bulkier..

That's a relieve. But not enough money

My p.e teacher takes creatine for 8 weeks 5g per day, 4 weeks he takes a break and is repeating this for 5 years. is this nesecary or can u take it 5 years straight 5g a day

Love these videos man! :)

I started using creatine one month ago. I feel not only like more energy. But my mood. I became more agressive than before

I've seen this video before!

Picturefit somebody told me that when he stopped taking creatine and stopped the gym at the same time,he had a significantly muscle loss. He lost 30lb in 3 weeks. Is it because of the creatine? Does it have this side effect?

I have seen an increase in hair loss since I started to use creatine one year ago. I’m cool with it though...cause Im JACKED!

I thought it depends

To me, it works wonders as a natural bodybuilder. I usually take 5 grams/day for a couple months, making sure to drink enough water and not to drink more than a couple beers on a night out for that period.

I took creatine for 3 months last year then I went for my annual physical and my creatinine levels were off so my doctor told me to stop. Anybody else noticed the same?

Make a vid about bubble gut i want to know how they get that
