i dont think creatine is that much of a good idea youre just better spending that money on some good whey protein with the proper aminoacid combination and eating a proper diet

creatine just alows you to retain water better but you really dont need that either if you drink enough water before during and after your workouts

ps. water is realy important if youre serious about the workouts make sure youre never dehydrated, a book ive read states that even if youre 3% dehydrated you loose about 10% of your strength

for general building up most whey protein is about the same? as long as its got 70+ % protein and has the basic types of aminoacids you need (cant remember all the names right now) you should be about right

theres a table ive got here on how much protein you need per your body weight and for my weight (95kg) i need about 140g of protein. so if i have my 3 protein shakes (each one has about 45g of protein) a day and some fish / chicken (whcih usualy is about another 40g for me) im about right on my protein coverage. then i need my 700g of carbohydrates with low glycemic index and im pretty much set with the diet.

heres some protein percentages for common foods (calculated on 100g):
tuna - 24%
cottage cheese - 21%
soya beans - 25%
bacon - 12%
skinless chicken breast - 26%
5 whole eggs - 26%

keep in mind though a lot of that stuff also has high % of fat and you want to keep your daily fat intake below 15% and sugars as low as possible

creatine = waste of time money

Just do roids, better results. :)

OR, you could just be content with your natural size afte realising it's a pointless exercise in futility.

creatine's creatine basically. Just get the cheapest s*** u can.

Let's not start another epic e-war on it and what it does again.

But yeah, as gimpy said, just do juice :P

You still need to eat s***loads with the gear though

Hell yeah, it's not like silicone muscles.

You have to train harder and eat more than ever before, how else would it be possible.

I'm jsut saying creatine is horses***. If your that way inclince, roids is your best option. 8 week cycle, 10kgs, you can probably hold 5kgs of it if your lucky. I've done creatine cycles, and yeah its great when ur on it, but when u stop, it goes.

Also, I think I looked better not on creatine.

I trained like a f***ing pscyho on just protein and I was so cut, people would watch me train and comment on my muscles. I'm not a big guy, but I was really cut. And I think that's the best I can do in that facet of life. I remember doing a bent-over dumbell row at the gym and 2 guys were watching me and one of them said, check out his f***ing biceps. I wasn't even big, I was just really f***ing cut.

I can never be huge, I worked that out. Now I just wanna fill out my shirts without buying a new wardrobe. You can get all excited about being huge, but there is no point in my opinion and it's a waste of time and energy. You have to keep it up forever to keep it anyway.

Like most things in life, it's about percentage of energy invested, in relation to percentage gained. Think about it. It's simple.

congratulations, thats the most homo post i've ever read!

Wanna have sex? You can be the bitch.

you're the one with the ineffective junk

IT WAS A JOKE MOTHER f***ER.

Look if u need some help with the ladies, let me know.

what's a good way to lose that body fat stuff? without necessarily gaining any muscle mass. Jumping rope?

Weights, 3 times a week.
25 mins of Cardio, 2 times a week.
And just be sensible about what you eat.

If you have trouble doing this, build up to it. Start off with what you CAN do, then build up to it.

While we're harrassing Acetame, I need some workout advice. I'm currently working on arm definition and I need a good method of working the deltoids, partucularly the lateral deltoid. Any info?

Hey Darius do you know of any good high protein diets that a poor uni student can afford? Eggs, milk, bean mix and WPI are getting much love from me ATM, but I want more variety.

Also, does anybody use Mike Mentzer methods?

Sorry to derail your thread a bit, but I don't wanna start another working out thread :P

i like to break a mental sweat

i tried creatine and it gave me a big energy hit which helped alot in weight training after a full days work. thats why i'm keen to try it out again and see how it goes. i'm already onto the protein shake.

if you want to know what exercises to do for certain areas or if creatine is right for you, perhaps you should visit www.bodybuilding.com and go and read about proper nutrition for starters.

once you get that in check next step should be the supplements, workout routines and finding out what is right for you and what results you want.

dont worry about brand. its all the same s***. just get the cheapest.

you could try Go Vita at chermside (but i think theyre full of s*** and overpriced sometimes - i got a tub for $25 once) otherwise, wherever

creatine is s***... kfc is better

The purity of what is inside the tin/tube surly has something to do with price?

Great site there Stez. Thanks.

Ask acetame about the effects and relationship of steriods and small penises

My name is Stez. I promote crappy online stores.

Uncalled for kmart.

Pigeon balls not small penises

Get into those protein shakes BOOST .. cya in 2 months tank ;)

Thought some of you may find this interesting or useful.

Link here.

What do you BB buffs think?

Sorry, unable to ship outside the US at this time.

Anyone know if this stuff is available in Aus anywhere?

Maybe you could import some from thier UK/Europe affiliate?? I mean if the customer is paying for freight, what's to lose? why wouldn't you sell to them?

So try and check it out Strex.

Just buy eggs and bin the yolks. Better might be to recycle them somehow, but just eat the whites for protein and lose the yolks and you'll be fine.

I don't do this, but I know a bodybuilder/nutritionist who does that and gets mileage from it.

Just buy whey protein, Body ripped is one of the better products around.

I heard somewhere that whey protein isolate is the best for if you want to develope lean muscle mass rather than bulking up (I'm looking to build the lean muscle mass). Any truth to this?

its true crizane.

Well nobody answered my question about Mike Mentzer. But some of his methods are really good. Like taking 4 seconds to do teh postive and 4 seconds on the negative for each lift, and then when you can no longer complete the positives, do as many negatives as possible (helps to have a partner or spotter). It really makes a difference.

Strex: there used to be a product at the supermarket that came in cartons which was just egg whites. I never found a source in brisbane though. All this egg-white s*** has to be kept refridgerated thats why u can't ship it anywhere.

I think u can get the powder though which is the same s***.

Otherwise just get bulk WPC which is the cheapest and most convenient option anyway.

Just so ur all aware, a lot of commercial proteins are s*** and cut with crap. Heaps have failed their label claims. I only get my protein in bulk and direct from dairy manufacturers.

Must be a short timeframe on the product Stez otherwise they wouldn't be able to ship it even in thier own coutry cause it has to be "kept refridgerated" . So im thniking insulated packaging or short amount of OK time when it's not cold before it needs to be cold.
