i always wondered that! cause most people i know that take creatine are FOOTBALL PLAYERS...and were already pretty BIG...anyway just needed more TONE and Muscles just a lil bit...but i always wondered what are the SIDE EFFECTS or ANY EFFECT PERIOD IF YOUR SKINNY a.ss HELL AND YOU TAKE CREATINE ...when i say Skinny i mean anywhere from 140-160lbs...???

The side effects of creatine are that you will be branded as a cheater :P..


Well really, there arent any know side-effects. People argue that there are non because its a natural substance, but the doses that are taken are HUGE compared to how much you get in a regular diet..

Once again, I would like to dissuade you from taking creatine as you're pretty much taking a steriod without the side-effects. And we all know that steroids are cheating..

would it make a skinny guy bigger? ....

Funny thing is, a LOT of niccas get sick using that. Try it tho. But at 1/2 dosage, b. Then after a month or so...go full loading phase.

are u actually kidding me comparing steriods 2 creatine....get your facts striaght then give info...

So will it make a skinny guy bigger?

its all water weight

u have to work out when you take creatine and you will see a increase in your weight/mass but its all water weight and last as much as u keep up with it.



in order to get creatine results you have to be on a creatine diet.once u stop everything will slowly go down.

Biglexx. think for a second. What do steriods do, make you buff with little or no effort. What does creatine do, make you buff with little or no effort. Whats the difference? Creatine doesnt have after effects.

As for whether it makes you buff, yeah it works really well, one of my friends used it and he weighed only 130.

^^ creatine is just water weight ,how are you comparing that to steroids?

it takes effort to get good results

if you take creatine and dont work out you will flap all over the place

i'm skinny as hell
it helped a little but i took it wrong and missed alot of days cuz i didn't want to tell my parents about it and i didn't want them to find it

but no real side effects, just dehydrates the hell out of you and that can cause problems if u don't drink a ton of water

and creatine
it is not an anabolic drug; aka, it doesn't help you build muscle
it allows you to work harder in the same amount of time so that you stimulate building more
i never knew that working harder was cheating

and it isn't just water weight
you'll gain like 4 pounds in a week and be like "holy sh*t this stuff is incredible" then it slowly decreases to a little more than normal

i gained 7 pounds of muscle in a month including a week where i had my wisdom teeth pulled and couldn't work out while taking creatine
you lose like 3 pounds when u stop but i still gained 7 pounds of muscle

and it isn't just water weight

yes it is, it automate's a signal path for water to get in your muscles.

and you will certainly not gain 4 pounds in a week.
by taking creatine.

i gained 10 lbs in less than a week last year when i stopped running... it doesnt take much for us skinny a.ss kids to gain weight, its just near impossible to keep it unless you eat food by the truckloads and work out every day

^^ hahah i was just about to post that site that you posted in the other creatine forum

Whats a Creatine Diet Consist of ??? any links?

i hear from alot of people that it fu*ks with your kidneys

I have creatine... they sell it at GNC so how bad could it be.. All I do is mix in a tablespoon with my protein shakes after workouts.. I don't think it will give you any kind of quick results, just follow a strict diet and lift heavy and you'll get bigger.
