One of the most common questions I get, so let me break it down.
Creatine is one of the most researched supplements on the planet. The evidence is solid. It works.
Here's what it actually does:
It helps your muscles produce energy faster during strength training. More reps. More output. Better results over time.
For men over 40, there's an extra benefit most people don't talk about. Creatine helps preserve muscle mass as you age. That matters a lot when you're trying to lose fat and keep your strength.
How to take it:
3 to 5 grams a day. Creatine monohydrate. Take it consistently. No need to load. No need to cycle. Just be consistent.
It won't replace your training or your deficit. But it's one of the few supplements that actually earns its place.
I've been using it and the difference in my sessions has been noticeable.
Have you tried creatine? What was your experience?
