Creatine Question

antiXcore Posts: 14 Joined: 2007/03/19	2007/03/20, 04:41 PM I've been recently taken off of bed rest due to injuries sustained in a car accident and have lost a lot of muscle mass due to being on my ass all day. Would short-term use of Creatine help jump-start my training and help me build back some of that loss muscle mass or would it not have an effect either way? -------------- It is human nature to think wisely and act in an absurd fashion. -Anatole France

I don't plan on bulking up to any extreme just would like some faster results.

If you are more high in fat at the moment then muscle, I would suggest holding off on the creatine until you've lowered your BF %. Once that is down, then you can focus more on growing your muscles and adding in creatine. And this is advice coming from a woman who has used creatine before. Good luck! :) -------------- Bettia "Minds are like parachutes; they work best when open." - Lord Thomas Dewar
