Creapure

[Riz]

Hi, im new to the forum and from my follwing questions you can probably tell.
I have just purchased some creapure but am not sure how long the effects last? also does it matter how much water i mix the powder with?

you can take it with as little or as much water as you like alot of people just drop it onto their tounge and take a mouth full of water, some people add it to their shakes. The size gains from the extra water stored in the muscles will only last while you use it, most of the strength gains you can get should last after you have stopped using it

I was just about to post a thread about this, I've been taking it a while with both Impact Whey Isolate & Calcium Caseinate, my question would be this:

Is it really needed? The Creapure that is? I mean yeah I notice I gain more size, but surely I will gain size and keep toned by just keep taking the two proteins and some Ultra Fine Scottish Oats?

please dont use the word toned...

The creapure means your muscles are storing more water and therefore appear bigger and more full... stop taking it and that will not last

dont expect to feel any different when taking creating, the difference it make for me is that on the last few exercises of the night it helps you grind out the reps. thats when i feel the benefits.

I will use the word toned whenever I please, thanks.

And yes I know what it does, so you are trying to tell me you can't get big and stronger muscles if you don't take it? I some how doubt that.

I'm not sure where you got that from. Nobody has said anything to suggest that in this thread...

Creatine is primarily a supplement to make you stronger, not make you grow as such, so you can lift bigger and through good nutrition and rest etc, you can get bigger.

It can make you feel 'bigger' within a couple of days, but this is simply extra water in your muscles

Drink lots of water with it as you can get dehyrated as water is pulled into your muscles

thanx for the help guys, much appreicated.
this may sound daft, but say u were playing in a sports tournament,would it be beneficial to take the creapure before your games?

No not really, it won't make you perform better if that's what you're getting at.
