I started taking creatine last Thursday. I didn't like the taste of the creatine,"fruit punch",so I didn't follow the "4 scoops for the first 5 days". Instead of took 2-3,as much of the flavor as I could for the first 5 days. So yesterday and today I went to hit the weights and I noticed that ALL of my work out I was able to get a extra rep or two and lift some more weights on other workouts. I have been drinking ALOT of water as everyone has told me to do. Is the creatine supposed to kick in this fast,especially with how I didn't follow the "starting up" routine or is this one of those "mind over matter" deals?
"I just moved here from Florida."
That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?
She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."
She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.
I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.
Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

"She's Out of Your League"
You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.
Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.
She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.
Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

i'm toying with the idea of using creatine aswell, at the moment i'm using loads of protein shakes (5kg every few months) so aswell as the question you ask mate, would anyone recommend this?
I take creatine everyday because its mixed in with my MRP shakes. The only thing I don't really like about creatine is it seems to make me sweat easier.
Did you do a forum search on creatine? You could probably find lots of info.

Fruit Punch.. sounds like you're taking Celltech to me. My gains from celltech came quick and were very impressive. Unfortunately, there are other alternatives that won't burn your throat and burn a hole in your wallet.

Ok so what other cretine source would you recommend that's cheap and still works like Celltech? Personally I'm planning to buy Noexplode since it got great reviews and I know people who used it. So is the Noexplode worth buying? where can I get the best deals?WC2 said:Fruit Punch.. sounds like you're taking Celltech to me. My gains from celltech came quick and were very impressive.

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."
Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.
Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?
You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.
Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

I'm sort of behind on creatine technology since I stopped using it 2 years ago, but several companies like Twinlabs offer plenty of creatine monohydrate for cheap. NOExplode I believe, isn't really considered true creatine consumption. People take NOExplode for more energy during workouts. While it does contain some creatine in there (2g), it is far too pricey to be used as creatine supplementation.
From what I have heard, NOExplode renders phenomenal results as a preworkout supplement. I just don't like the idea of artificially getting my blood pumping before a workout just for a few gains. There will probably be some longterm studies conducted on the product that will show whether it is harmful to take longterm.

How do you know it's the creatine and not that you are stronger since the last workout? Isn't that what the point of your last workout was?blinkwatt said:So yesterday and today I went to hit the weights and I noticed that ALL of my work out I was able to get a extra rep or two and lift some more weights on other workouts
