dillon Posted October 18, 2013 Share Creatine draws water from your system to work effectively, so you may need to look at how much you are drinking Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Latent Blue Posted October 18, 2013 Share it seems like every time i try creatine i start getting cramps after about 2 hours. who has the same problem? who can use creatine on 3 and 4 hour rides? Creatine also causes dehydration (more solutes)... Again... some expensive urine... itll hamper your performance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baaisikilist Posted October 18, 2013 Share Ya, u must just train and live on bread n water. You must also hunt your own meat with a spear and your wife must gather veggies when she recover's from you clubbing her n dragging her to the cave by her hair. Also, try taking the creatine AFTER you ride, in your recovery shake, with a spoon of glutamine. If it's the powdered monohydrate, dissolve it in warm water and let it cool in the fridge over night. Your body will absorb it better than if u just chuck a spoon of powder/'crystals' in the shake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaws677 Posted October 18, 2013 Share Hehe... stupid little people make me laugh... I don't care much for your post... but you make yourself seem quite inadequate... So you agree that cramping is solely related to lack of training? Edited October 18, 2013 by Jaws677 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But how will supplementing with Creatine benefit endurance athletes compared to supplementing with protein / carbs, i.e. what would the improvement in performance be percentage wise with Creatine vs without Creatine, ignoring the possible side effects as per the OP's post? I'm not arguing, just wondering as you probably have good knowledge wrt Creatine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wil6 Posted October 18, 2013 Share Nope... it is a contributing factorIt differs from person to person, I can be as under trained as hell but I will never cramp, but my friend cramps even when he is quite fit VERTICAL 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
