[QUOTE="Stadtaffe, post: 1428613, member: 10358"] I see... I went for a long walk today (is lockdown) and contemplated what I have been reading here about creatine. Actually, was good today, I met some other real corona deniers like myself :cool: So until a few weeks ago I was in a place with no lockdown, going frequently to the gym, making gains, now I am without the gym again, so I am doing my running again, and walking, which is the opposite of muscle gain, but at least it sheds fat - am really light at the moment. Will save the corona rants for the other threads. I am in my early forties, and been lifting since my teens, and have never really ripped a tendon or muscle. Not at the gym anyhow, maybe the odd foot injury and strains and tendonitis from trying too hard at the gym where I may have had to take a month off, but never a real, nasty, go to the doctor or hospital style excruciating injury (from weights). I really push it and almost never have a spotter, and with what [USER=20533]@Nate_Drake[/USER] said: I can so imagine that happening.. Will beware of getting too excited about new found strength. Okay, well good it looks like someone has confirmed that it makes your muscles get [I]stronger[/I] not just [I]bigger[/I].
