"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

Hey, I got some Body Fortress Super Creatine High Performance Muscle Mass and Strength Fuel.

Looks like it isn't just creatine, but a whole lot of other stuff. On the back it says:

Calories 150
Carbs 32 g
Sugars 32 g
Phosphorus (as Magnesium Phosphate, Potassium Phosphate and Sodium Phosphate) 180 mg
Magnesium 65 g
Sodium 95 mg
Potassium 90 mg
Creatine Monohydrate 5.25 g
Taurin 1 g


But, I want to load on creatine. I've read that you need to space out 25g of creatine to load on it. The problem is that it has a lot of this other junk in it (thought I was buying just creatine).

Is it safe if I take 5 scoops of this a day (for five days)? I will be getting 25 g of creatine for my load but a lot of calories, carbs, potassium, etc.

Any thoughts?
 

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

You're fine. Space it out 5x per day for the 5 days, then take one scoop after that. You dont have to worry about the other stuff in there. I think you meant 65mg of magnesium too right? :up:

You are going to get some sugar load though for the 5 days because of the 32g in there. You'll be putting down 160g of carbs in the form of sugar, and isn't your best bet, but again you are only doing it for 5 days.

The reason the dextrose is in there (I am going off what I know that its dextrose even though you didnt list the source...could be wrong) is to shuttle the creatine into the muscles. That's the ONLY reason they use sugar, as a transport mechanism. In your newer creatine products, this is not necessary as much as your plain creatine.

Super! Next time I load on creatine I will be sure to buy 100% creatine.

After my 5 day period is over should I take just two scoops per day? The instructions on the back say I should take one scoop an hour before workout, and one more an hour after. I assume these instructions are to be ignored for someone who knows what they are doing.
