No, but I heard a story of a guy who took 50g a day for a few years and it liquefied his quads or something. A teaspoon is about 5g btw.
Ryder Bennett
It liquified his quads? Wtf? How?
Also I don't have a teaspoon measurement or anything. the smallest thing I have is like, a regular spoon.
Ryan Wilson
During the loading period you're suppose to take more creatine than usual, but 30g? Fuck I'd get your kidneys tested.
Colton Jackson
Drink lots and lots and lots o water and you should be fine.
Isaac Flores
I haven't felt any symptoms of kidney failure yet but I probably will as soon as I can.
Robert James
Creatine causes your muscles to store more water. I don't remember how it went but he woke up and his legs hurt and it was basically because the muscle tissue was falling apart due to all the water in them.
Carson Brooks
So can I keep taking it at smaller doses, or should I let the shit clear out of my system for a few days before I keep trying this?
