**Title: Caffeine Vs Creatine: The Ultimate Showdown** 00:00 - ⚖ El debate sobre cuál es mejor entre la cafeína y la creatina en el mundo del fitness. 00:37 - 💪 Creatina mejora el rendimiento en ejercicios de alta intensidad como levantamiento de pesas, con un incremento promedio del 10 al 20%, superior al 2 al 7% de la cafeína. 01:44 - 🏃 Caffeine es más eficaz en actividades de resistencia, con mejoras de hasta el 20% en la resistencia, pero los efectos varían mucho entre individuos. 02:17 - 🔬 La cafeína mejora la concentración, el estado de ánimo y tiene beneficios en la resistencia, mientras que la creatina es consistente en el rendimiento en actividades de alta intensidad. 03:04 - 🧠 La cafeína mejora el enfoque y el estado de ánimo, mientras que la creatina ayuda con la memoria, la depresión y la salud ósea. 04:07 - 🏋‍♂ La creatina tiene un efecto positivo directo en el aumento de masa muscular, mientras que la cafeína no tiene un impacto significativo en este aspecto. 04:28 - 🚫 La cafeína puede causar problemas de tolerancia, ansiedad, palpitaciones cardíacas y afectar el sueño; tiene un límite de seguridad de 400-500 mg por día. 06:11 - 💧 La creatina puede causar hinchazón debido a la retención de agua y no muestra resultados inmediatos; puede requerir de 3 a 5 semanas para ver beneficios plenos. 07:08 - 🚶‍♂ Un 20-30% de las personas no responden a la creatina, y algunos reportan pérdida de cabello, aunque no se ha comprobado científicamente. 07:39 - 🏆 En general, la creatina es considerada menos problemática y más segura en comparación con la cafeína, ganando la comparación global.

[@josuemontero2675]

I don't why people are complaining about the two being compared. They are supplements and most people are not made of money. So deciding on which one to spend on for the optimal gains is fair.

**Title: Caffeine Vs Creatine: The Ultimate Showdown** 00:00 - ⚖ The debate on which is better between caffeine and creatine in the fitness world. 00:37 - 💪 Creatine improves performance in high-intensity exercises like weight lifting, with an average increase of 10-20%, compared to caffeine’s 2-7%. 01:44 - 🏃 Caffeine is more effective for endurance activities, with improvements of up to 20%, though effects can vary widely among individuals. 02:17 - 🔬 Caffeine enhances focus, mood, and endurance, while creatine is consistent in high-intensity performance benefits. 03:04 - 🧠 Caffeine boosts alertness and mood, while creatine aids memory, depression, and bone health. 04:07 - 🏋‍♂ Creatine directly improves muscle gains, whereas caffeine does not have a significant impact on muscle growth. 04:28 - 🚫 Caffeine may lead to tolerance issues, anxiety, heart palpitations, and affect sleep; it has a safety limit of 400-500 mg per day. 06:11 - 💧 Creatine can cause bloating due to water retention and doesn’t provide immediate results; it may take 3-5 weeks to see full benefits. 07:08 - 🚶‍♂ About 20-30% of people may not respond to creatine, and some report hair loss, though this is not scientifically confirmed. 07:39 - 🏆 Overall, creatine is considered less problematic and safer compared to caffeine, making it the winner in the comparison.

[@BrandanTheBroker]

Once upon a time there was a company that made a coffee creamer creatine preworkout, I forget the name of the company but the pre also had aminos and a few other things but was sugar free and flavored like coffee creamer.

[@PhoenixFit2024]

I have been exercising/strength training for decades and years before the masses heard about creatine we were already taking it. The one thing I’d warn people of is that in general creatine does work, but for long term use it can have negative effects, along with just about any supplement taken long term. Basically, your liver and kidneys after a while really get sick of this stuff. I have a very mild chronic condition where I do get labs drawn regularly and as I’ve aged these blood tests do show that you really are putting more stress on your kidneys and liver. This stuff won’t kill you, but unless you really are in that too “X” percentage of athletes where taking supplements even makes sense it really isn’t recommended that you take any of these supplements, at least long term. Taking something in your 20s, 30s, - fine but continue that into your 40s and 50s and your organs really, really don’t like that.

[@berengerchristy6256]

I really might have to quit creatine and that makes me sad. It does help me though. The first time I loaded up with it I was able to the same number of reps but with 5lb heavier dumbbells, but I guess I have to give my kidneys a break

[@PhoenixFit2024]

@@berengerchristy6256 Depending on your goals you should be fine. It’s just really long term use that can get tricky. If you are able to punch out a few more reps, and get that muscle growth because of that, go for it. But one day you’ll get older and maybe maintenance or other goals will take over and you can just focus on general nutrition.

[@berengerchristy6256]

@@PhoenixFit2024 It really should be ok, but my creatinine is up a smidge compared to last year and it was already elevated. But now my eGFR has taken the slightest hit so I might hold off for a few months. Feels bad because I'm the strongest I've ever been. I was able to press the 120lb dumbbells a couple weeks ago and I was really happy about that, but I gotta keep longevity in mind even though I'm only 32

6:13 Since the water stored by creatine is in the muscles, shouldn't this cause a fuller, more muscular look as opposed to a bloated one?

[@me0101001000]

I go creatine in my smoothie first thing in the morning, and I take caffeine in my late morning coffee and afternoon tea. I have no intention of changing that anytime soon.

[@wildcatR4WR]

Ok guys. We can all agree that the theme of this video makes no sense. But come on, it's still informative and science based, let's cut him some slack.

[@Jari1973]

I have tested many and many times the effect of caffeine and creatine on my own performance.. The only positive effect has been that the coffee tastes good 😁 In fact, in two experiments, performance increased more without creatine 🤔

[@25johnlowe]

I think caffine should be a last resort to be honest. I am 36, train 4/5 times a week and have done since 16. Have 3 young kids and both me and partner work full time. I manage to get my workouts in without any caffine in the morning. You'd get used to not having it/relying on it. Dont drink tea or coffee either. Yes some days you wont have as much energy but thats life. Seeing all these 16-21 banging preworkouts that are basicslly just a ton of caffne seems so wrong. Surely you should have the energy at that age and if not something else (diet, sleep, stress) is way off and needs sorting first.

[@wellnesswingman]
