Creatine has been an absolute game changer in my muscle development and definition.
The reason for creatine causing subcutaneous water retention might be due to the body reacting as if it’s dehydrated. As creatine pulls water into muscles, it takes that water from elsewhere. Drinking more water and making sure to get enough electrolytes throughout the day is the solution for this.
Creatine hasn’t so much helped with muscle building personally, it’s really helped with getting rid of mental fog for me. I’m just more readily able to concentrate and so because of that, I can commit to my goals better.
I work in a physicaly taxing job and I try to workout enough, just basic bodyweight stuff, pull ups and so on. When I started working there I felt as if I'm too tired to workout but after starting to take creatine this problem was largely gone.
Great video @Thomas! I don't know why it's taken so long for the narrative around creatine to align with the science. I'm definitely going to get those gummies for my mom who is getting older, she doesn't want to mix a grainy powder in a drink!
Another very informative video, as usual. I've been a longtime follower and I fairly recently started using Creatine Monohydrate to assist with my workouts. I'm a 58 years old and both of my parents died with dementia. I'd noticed that I was beginning to display early signs of cognitive decline, and this was prior to hearing about the cognitive benefits of supplementing with Creatine in order to build more muscle/strength (I had recently fallen and once was enough). Long story short, I immediately noticed, after a couple days of supplementation, I experienced noticeable improvements in my memory and cognition, and my wife noticed as well. (I skipped the loading phase and took daily 2 gram doses.) The cognition improvements were not expected, I just wanted avoid falling and serious injury. Keep up the good work and thanks for all the info, not sure where I'd be if I hadn't followed your channel.
After distance running training in a hot and humid climate, I was struggling with mysterious injuries. After months of struggle, I took 5 grams of creatine for two days and I stopped injuring myself. I'm convinced I was low creatine. Studying the synthesis of creatine, I'm thinking the possible temporary kidney function impairment during periods of dehydration was a factor.
With end stage cancer at 38 I wish could have Tom as a personal trainer.
I have used creatine now for over 30 years and will continue!
Man, great explanations, thanks a lot!
