When I first heard about creatine, I thought it was just for bodybuilders. But after hitting a plateau in my lifts, I decided to give it a shot. Now? It's a non-negotiable part of my stack.
Why Creatine Is a Gym Staple
Creatine helps your muscles produce energy during high-intensity workouts. That means more reps, more weight, and more gains.
Top Questions About Creatine
- What does it do? It increases ATP production, which fuels muscle contractions.
- Is it safe daily? Yes - decades of research support its safety.
- Does it help with weight loss? Indirectly - by increasing muscle mass and workout intensity.
- How long to see results? Most people notice strength gains in 2-4 weeks.
- Should I cycle it? Not necessary - daily use is fine.
What the Science Says
According to Examine.com, WebMD, and Muscle & Fitness, creatine is one of the most studied and effective supplements out there. It's been shown to improve strength, sprint performance, and muscle mass. Bonus: it may even support brain health.
My Experience with Creatine
I started taking Fit Bodega's Creatine Monohydrate with my post-workout shake. Within a month, I added 15 lbs to my deadlift. One of our customers, Marcus, told us, 'I've never felt stronger - and I'm not even lifting heavier, just recovering faster.'
How to Use It Right
Take 3-5g daily, with or without food. No need to load or cycle. Just stay consistent and hydrate well - creatine pulls water into your muscles.
