So rn I’m leanmaxxing so should I wait with taking creatine or just hold on a little? And since creatine increases water retention does this mean I will be bloated on my face
No no creatine will not bloated you it will help you to Look better when you lean
Thank god. What are the pros tho (expect gainz on the gym?)
More water retention - more energy supply - Speed up muscle recovery - Boost water content in muscle cells

I tried it for like 4 months and I was able to deadlift 160kg and had a 20kg jump from my other lifts definitely worth it for the recovery if you can afford proper brands MAKE SURE to not use those really cheap sweet ones since they are garbage.

So just pure monohydrate? Also is like the powdered one or the one in pills better. My friend have apple flavored creatine and it’s disgusting

I used powdered creatine and at first I actually took those shitty flavored cheap ones thinking I was gonna hit a deal DON'T cheap out on creatine bro, I haven't took crea pills but I'm sure they'd have no difference also focus on carbs and prot first tbh if you don't have much money like me just buy proper food first.

Yeah I usually eat gummy bears or chocolate before working out and I’m packing protein like crazy (ate 200g of protein yesterday : D). Also there’s this polish brand selling creatine called KFD is it good? Or how do I check if the creatine is good
 
You will not gain much better sleep like 1-2 kg muscels per year more when you go gym often and you muscels are bigger looking

I used to use creatine when I was 17-18 but stopped because there wasn't any noticeable benefits since I already ate a lot of meat. Definitely wasn't causing me any harm though

So it didn’t really matter for you. Also how long did you take it?

I think I took it around 6 months. Didn't hurt me but also didn't seem to do much and I stopped buying it since spending money on it wasn't worth it. Try creatine if you want, and it might do more for you than it did me. Imo it's very improbable for it to do you harm

Why you can only 80kgs?

My mom aswell as my dad even tho they are in the middle of divorce think that with my height of 191cm it would be an unhealthy weight. While when I weight those 87kgs I look like a fat fucking pig. They think I’m anorectic or something
