I'm 14...which some say is too young for creatine. About late July August of 2005 i started using creatin/whey protien. I went from a flabby 140 to a more toned and defined 165...some of the weight gain was just from growing and eating. I was using Celltech/ON 100% Whey.
I would lift/train for 1hour/day with a 15-20 minute cardio session. I was about 157-163 during wrestling season. My moms is a nurse...she says i need to change my diet and workout...i am...I just want a boost. If i dont really need the creatine...ill just go with the whey. But i liked the creatine. I was looking at a few kinds like the:

You may want to beleive the creatine and whey is what took you from 140 and flabby to a more toned and defined 165 but I can almost gaurantee you it wasn't. Creatine is meant to be used as a boost for people who hit a sticking point, or plateau. Not right from the start. Still, most people do and therefore they never even realize the true benefit of it. At your age creatine is just a waste in my opinion. Your body is cranking out testosterone and growing like crazy. That is why you went from a flabby 140 to a more defined 165. Don't give Cell-Crap and creatine the credit. If you eat right, workout and rest you'll see great gains. If you do decide to go with something, be smart, drop the creatine and Cell-Crap, just do a simple Whey PWO shake like atiger mentioned with some malto and dex. And that's only if your not going straight home to eat. That's really the only time you need it.
