Creatine

It hasn't been proven safe, let's put it that way. You have a loading phase (getting your body used to it) and a maintenance phase (you take a regular dose for a long as you want to train). As far as I know it allows you to increase your endurance when working out, a little past the point where you'd normally have to give up. In that way, it helps you to train harder and increase your muscle growth. It's also supposed to speed up muscle recovery. Creatine occurs naturally in the human body but as usual, taking an abnormally large dose of anything (even if it is naturally occurring) is something I personally wouldn't do.

If you want to get big and strong, work harder. It isn't rocket science as long as you have an average body type.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Yeah, why the hell would you want to follow the manufacturers instructions *rolls eyes*? All the creatine monohydrate i've ever seen on sale says you should do that. I guess you guys have more different kinds, some of which don't need that stage? We don't have such a big drug culture in athletics as over there, so that sort of thing isn't as widely known.

By working harder, I didn't mean overtraining V_V. I think you're a pretty dumb fuck yourself for misunderstanding. Obviously over-training will do more harm than good. When I say "work harder" I mean "be more dedicated to your goal"; in other words don't be a pussy and fall back on chemicals until you've maxed out your body's potential naturally. A lot of people jump straight into using drugs because they're lazy. Dedicating and training the mind to accomplish a task is just as important as anything else. If you use drugs and supplements from the outset, you're in the wrong profession.

It's dumb not to take it? Pfft. We don't even know what this kid looks like and you're telling him that supplements are the only way? Yeah right.

There's nowhere I can't reach.
