Supplement prices??

I'm just saying if you take two guys,both have the same diet,same training, same genetics, same rest, the only difference is creatine supplements, and check their results after a year, two years, etc, there won't be any significant difference that meets the eye

Just brain health, heart health, possibly mental but definitely cognitive health, possibly other things we don't know about yet, and more hydrated (atp) filled energy muscle cells. No big deal..

You guys kill me. Take your creatine.

How do you know? The little things add up to big things over time.

Let's put this another way

Creatine came out in the early 90s

Safe to say Lee Haney never used it

You think creatine would have resulted in a visibly different Lee Haney at the end of the day?

What reason would I have to believe it wouldn't have?
Creatine was first introduced in world War 1

I'm not trying to sound bad here but why would you assume that supplements wouldn't be like anything and everything else in the world..and especially the USA the last 4-5yrs? Wages going up, cost of raw materials from powders to containers to plastic seals to scoops going up, gas and shipping going up.

Weird flex - it's cool that you don't have to pay attention but I just don't quite understand the purpose of the question.

“Weird flex”???

I’m just asking a question to start a conversation dude
it’s nothing more complicated than that

Well, I'm pretty sure Lee maxed out his genetic potential just about as early as humanly possible, and I don't see how he would have made any improvements beyond what he achieved, saving the possibility he had room for higher dosages/different drugs..

I really noticed inflation when It came to protein powder, cause damn, shit got expensive. Costco had 5lbs jugs of ON Whey for like 22 bucks in 2018. I stocked up and had in storage for a while. Now they have 5lb bags of the same protein for $70ish. So now I really only use as meal replacement at work or intra-workout.

It’s gonna get much worse lol

It’s gonna get much worse lol

Yes most likely

I think there's a good likelihood of some short sighted economic policies coming into effect a little less than a year from now, combination of decreased taxed and regulations, along with sustained or even increased spending, which could do long term damage but would result in some temporary and immediate relief

Im sure that everyone has been feeling the pinch as far as it comes to groceries and other things in this country,
have you guys noticed that your supplements have raised a lot in prices too??
I buy a lot of supplements but I haven’t really noticed cause I guess I don’t really pay much attention to it.

I notice it every time I reorder on AMAZON. I buy a lot of supplements from there and just recently switched to iherb and vitamin shoppe directly. Yes it take longer to get to me but saving $5 here and there adds up.
Just for example fish oils I had to stop using Carlsons as it got soooo $$$. The fish oil I switched to just recently jumped up to $30 from 24 and previously 19 and 15 buck less than 6 months ago.

I don't know why steroid users take creatine. I don't think creatine is going to make any significant difference in your results. I mean, it won't really effect naturals either, tbh.

First time I ever took creatine when I was 21 and I blew up. I did the old school creatine "loading" and I put on size so fast that I had stretch marks on my chest and biceps.

Now I still take it; on days that I forget I don't get as good of a pump.

The ability to instantly swell the muscles with loading is real

But real muscle gains the likes of which would create stretch marks had to be from placebo effect

I have an overstock store about 45 minutes from me. Per a buddies advice I went there yesterday and grabbed 30 servings of eaas for $14 and 2 5lb allmax whey isolate tubs for $90.
They had some good brands a ton of other supplements extremely cheap
