Title: on the outside looking in
Post by: joswift on November 22, 2025, 02:11:50 PM
Since I got out of bodybuilding I cant even get through the online prep and training videos without thinking "What a fucking idiot"

One girl not having a xmas dinner because she was in prep for a show three months away because her husband told her to.

One guy talking about his pre-and post workout drinks and adding in multiple different products including upwards of 15gms of creatine


Not to mention the "almond butter brigade"

Competitors these days seem to live on supplements and pre-packed meals
They bang on about how important the nutrition is then add chocolate to their morning oats

All the emphasis on eating and training but without the copius amounts of drugs they would look like the average gym rat

All I got is that I've tried 20-30 gram single doses of creatine. The influencers say megadoses of it can help mental performance after not getting much sleep. Some Novorapid insulin to help dispose of it in the muscles LOL. Only did a few times so can't evaluate yet. I did read Milos had his athletes use 80 or 100 grams of it a day LOL. I never considered higher doses, though I remember Poliquin saying 40 grams a day and 20 grams on maintenance mode LOL, and this was when it was just introduced to the market.

I did see some peptide company selling lyophilized phosphocreatine to be used before workouts but the dose was in the milligrams. I just remembered that the Bulgarian company that made Tribestan had a product called Energix and I remember it was a vial and the cap held phosphocreatine powder to be dumped in the solution before drinking it.
