no problem, I've still got a tub and a half left, not sure whether to continue with it tbh.
I see, thanks for your input! Guess I'll continue taking the stuff... at least until the tub is empty.  8)


Just to make this post a bit more interesting...

"In conclusion, the present study demonstrates for the first time that creatine supplementation in combination with strength training amplifies the training-induced increase in satellite cell number and myonuclei concentration in human skeletal muscle fibres, thereby allowing an enhanced muscle fibre growth in response to strength training." - http://jp.physoc.org/content/573/2/525.abstract

I think it works.  That said, I cant really tell a difference when I take it until I stop taking it.  The effects are very gradual.

Well, it is probably one of the only supplements to have been proven scientifically to work. Yes, its effects have been studied in major universities (harvard, yale, cornell).

With that said, its not going to make you look like ronnie coleman either. IF you are going to buy a supplement, Id say youre safest bet is creatine in terms of a supplement actually working (though the amount of benefit will depend on the person).

Hi Ron.
Well, hello there young man. Would you happen to be interested in trying some creatine? It'll make you a real stud.  :P
