Take creatine for first time for getting explosive?
« on: June 14, 2012, 06:49:51 am »

I've been taking a break from competitive bball league games/pick up because of several injuries i've acquired (hand, groin, and knee)

In the mean time I've been lifting a lot of weights.  I have never taken creatine before.  As my injuries begin to heal and I get back to doing more explosive type training, would i benefit from taking micronized creatine?

But

Anyone would benefit from creatine. There's no reason not to be taking it.

just buy the NOW creatine, itll last you a long ass time for like 10 bucks or something, i think its 600grams.  In the end creatine is just creatine.  Also remember its not like popping Dbol or injecting Test so dont expect magical things to happen
