Creatine Gives Endurance Athletes a Winning Edge - Why Cyclists Should Take Creatine

[@JDAvant06]

HyperGain BeastMode in the cup cake flavour for me!!!

[@Under_Foot]

Have you ever heard of someone's voice not matching their face? Thats you it's incredible the mismatch. Been loving the content you put out it's really been getting me through a ROUGH patch in my life because of spam callers asking about cars extended warranty.

[@DrewDillmanChannel]

Thanks, I think. Haha. Glad I’m helping you out in whatever way I can!

[@gattmolson]

That lighting is way better, feels more on the up and up which is good when you're talking about "substances" Liked the subtle dig at Dylan, no better way to win a race then to get dropped and TT.

[@DrewDillmanChannel]

Why thank you! Glad you like it.

[@aethylwulfeiii6502]

Never been a good sprinter in my life but this stuff made me passable with a 300 watt increase in one to three second power, but I gained 1.3 kgs.

Vegans have lower baseline creatine since they don't eat meat, a dietary source of creatine, so stand to gain more from supplementation.

[@smellysam]

Back in the 90’s, when creatine first became widely available, there was talk of banning it. Not for the doping effect, but because there was no method in its usage - so people were taking 100gr, 200gr or more a day, mixed with a bunch of weird supplements then getting kidney issues…

[@darrellstyner0001]

Took it for 6 months a year ago. Gained 12 lbs. the first month (while loading 10-15g per day)--some muscle, mostly water. I was jacked and definitely stronger, but my riding performance improved when I stopped 6 months ago as I was too heavy and couldn't climb. My advice is to start slow (3-5 g per day) and see how your body reacts. Loading is not necessary and turns you into a gas factory. Take it slow.

[@ryancraig999]

Creatine HCL/L Citrulline from Kaged is the greatest endurance stack 😉🤙 C-HCL requires no loading and is much more absorbable, also minimizes water retention/bloating

[@1elaire]

Do you notice any differences in hydration? I imagine that once you use the stored creatine, say in a sprint, then the associated bound water would be liberated into the body/bloodstream.

The link to Look’s page doesn’t seem to be working properly, not sure if that’s on my end or not. Personal experience, I never saw a benefit when taking creatine when I did powerlifting. But I’m willing to give it another shot now that I’ve switched to cycling

[@DrewDillmanChannel]

Yea. It’s hard to tell if someone can “feel” or even notice substantial changes. We’re talking marginal gains so hard to tell if they actually work outside from what the research says and personal experience. I don’t feel any stronger, but I’m hoping it’s extending my lifting and sprinting ability, even if I don’t necessarily see it.

[@TyTy22_]

@@DrewDillmanChannel if it’s a perceived benefit then that’s all that truly matters in the end! Looking forward to hearing future updates on your experience

[@neilashton9459]

I will add my creatine tub to the Townsend packing list then. That way when I get dropped on a climb I can blame it on the extra water weight 🤔

[@DrewDillmanChannel]

Smart guy!

[@brunospasta]

Thanks. This shows me I dont need creatin : )

[@scottswygert7165]

What's the other supplement that you take?

[@diegoeleazar9154]

Struggling to balance my power to weight ratio. It seem before and after taking creatine it's still the same and I look fat 😭

[@Velodictorian]

Creatine is also used by the brain so you’ll have cognitive benefits and be sharper

[@archiekinsalison10]

Is Creatine allowed by UCI?

[@smellysam]

But if you are competing, keep receipts, empty containers and 10gr for 1 year - in case of contamination.

[@adadinthelifeofacyclist]

Burning creatine doesn't create lactic acid either

[@connerburton2123]

🤌

[@PerryScanlon]

It's extra weight to carry uphill.

[@pmcmpc]

It has a relatively minimal gain and some pretty significant side effects. A lot of it is also tainted with various banned substances, as the manufacturers or brands mixing and marketing it unofficially produce or mix T, roids and numerous other things.

[@gattmolson]

Can you please recommend me some Creatine that contains Testosterone in a drinkable powder form, that would be pretty cool.

[@ColoCX]

Fake news

[@anotheremailaddress9664]

Yeah.. so, once again, someone with no wholesale supplements manufacturing experience. These aren’t being packaged from a bathtub. 😅

[@dominicbritt]

Creatine will just make you bulk up - no good for most cycling…
