Every boxer should use Creatine

If there's no such thing as a big, slow athlete....then why is the heavyweight division full of big, slow fighters?

 

What's the best time of day to take creatine? How many times a day do you take the "new" creatine?

 

did sum research....
" Unsubstantiated side effects sometimes attributed to creatine use include increased aggressiveness, anxiety, acne, male breast formation (gynecomastia), a reduction in ***** size, hair loss (men) and body hair growth (women) "

 

thats steroids not creatine, post the link.

 

silvy you forgot "Rumors abound about creatine and often stem from the public confusing creatine with an anabolic steroid and not from factual occurrences" this bit when you cut and pasted your findings, you also replaced the word 'steroids' with the word 'creatine' why the hell would you do that?

 

This is the exact same story i've heard from friends that thought creatine would make them stronger and faster. But all it did was that their muscles pumped full with blood, and that just makes them slower.

And why are you promoting creatine like this, PowerPuncher?
If you think that creatine will do you and your boxing abilities any good then use it, man! but don't try to convience us of the benefits.

 

you have no idea what so ever of what you are talking about, pumps muscle with blood?:rofl atsch

if your not convinced of the benefits, simple dont use it, but dont discredit facts,

what exactly was your friend doing with creatine? taking it for bodybuilding? or was he taking creatine and thinking he will magically gain insane speed and stamina? do you even know what the word SUPPLEMENT means?

i guess your friends are better than alot of pro boxers right?

 

I have used creatine on and off for the last 5 years, Creatine Monohydrate is pretty cheap with alot servings, I guess I used that the most with little or no results.

There was a product I used a couple years ago that was effective, it was called Meta Cell. I took this product for 2 months and gained 10 pounds during that time, I was excited by the results and looked foward to buying more and to my surprise GNC took it off the market, I asked why and no one had an answer for me.

I stopped taking any kind of creatine for a month and lost 8 of the 10 pounds in that time, after that I was convinced water weight and puffy look is the only thing creatine ever gave me. I now only buy Protein at my local GNC, because I finally realized after all these years its the one true supplement other than something illegal, that will give the benefits

 

so we agree on this part!!!
If you think you need to use creatine to be a better boxer, then use it!!
I don't think creatine will help me to get a better boxer because of what i have heard of friends that used it.

 

nah its not steroids... sounds like it though..
the website i got the info from is http://www.creatinemonohydrate.net/ and its under "unexplained side effects" and its pretty much exactly half way down the page...

 

Guys, it's very simple - ALL of you take creatin accept may be vegeterians. So - no matter what you think of it - you do consume it while eating meats and fish. How ever - it's not THAT easy to provide your body with enough creatin (from the "normal" food) - assuming that you train hard.
Thats the simple reason why MOST professional athlets like sprint runners, boxers and many others do use it with different success.
Some people do not respond significantly (benefit) - because their own body produce enough from "normal" food. Vegetarians are those that supposed to benefit greatly. Side effects like water retention and slightly increased weight are not present with 5 - 6 g daily doze.
This is very much like protein - we all take it from "normal" food but if we train hard enough than it's becoming hard to maintain positive protein balance. It's still possible but takes too much time and food.
