TRUTH about Creatine

Truthful Tip:

DO NOT BE FOOLED ABOUT CREATINE. Does creatine monohydrate hold water and make you bloated? This seems to be a very popular question lately. Well here is the no b/s honest truth about it. Creatine makes you hold water BUT does not make you bloated. I won’t bore you with all the proper terminology, I’ll tell it the way it is. Creatine makes you hold water, INSIDE YOUR MUSCLES!! The water you are concerned about (BLOATED LOOK) is OUTSIDE YOUR MUSCLES. Creatine does nothing to add to the water outside your muscles. It holds water inside your muscles, creating a ‘fuller’ look. World renowned bodybuilders will take creatine all the way up to competitions and even the day of the show because it keeps their muscles FULL. All that promotional stuff about other creatines being the ‘best creatine’ because they don’t make you hold water is pure crap! The fact is creatine monohydrate provides the best results, but it is hard to sell at higher prices because it has been around forever and is relatively cheaper to produce. I’ve done plenty shoots without creatine and have come in looking flat, since then I’ll stand by using creatine regardless if I have a shoot/competition. Too many people stress the creatine in their system and figure they’ll remove it a week or so before a shoot or competition. Most don’t realize it actually takes 4-6 weeks to completely remove all creatine from your system. This is especially important for those looking to add muscle. Do not limit yourself from adding to your results because you are afraid of water retention; you need that water IN your muscles to GROW! There will be no bloated look, that’s for sure!
