Consumer Review: Creatine Did Wonders For My Bench Press With No Noticeable Side Effects.

I am a 22 year old male who has been lifting on and off for four years. I am 6' 2" and weigh 200lbs. Just before I started using creatine I could max 205 lbs on the bench press. I loaded with 20g a day for four days, and took 2.5 grams a day thereafter. In a month and a half my bench shot up to 230 lbs. I had no noticeable gains in weight. After I stopped taking it I noticed a slight drop in the amount of weight I could lift. This drop may be partially psychological. Either way I have found the stuff to work really well and I have had no noticeable side effects.

I'm a 28 year old avid weightlifter who's been lifting for 12 years. I've tried just about ever supplement out there. All have failed with the exception of creatine; this stuff gave me incredible muscle endurance. Before using it, I was bench pressing 315 for 1 set of 10. Within in two weeks, I was doing 315 2 sets of 10! I never had such dramatic results in that amount of time. My brain was telling me that I should have failed on the 2nd set but my body just kept going. Folks in the gym were asking me what I was doing. I was leaner and I was getting incredible pumps during my workouts. As for all this propaganda about side effects, let me tell you I have been on and off this stuff for the last two years and I haven't experienced one!!! Just keep in mind that you do need to drink plenty of water to keep your organs (kidneys) functioning properly. Anyone thinking about trying it, I TOTALLY recommend it!

I just turned 19 years old and I weigh about 150lbs. I've been working out for about two years off and on. I only started back recently, and I wasn't even benching 165lbs. I decided to start creatine. I didn't overload at all for the first week, I just took the recommended 5 grams a day. In a little over a month, I was benching 230lbs no problem. To me, this is a miracle of how creatine could help me so much in my strength bursts. It really works, and I recommend it. I've experienced no side effects so far. You must drink almost one gallon of water a day while taking creatine. Trust me, you'll see results in no time.
