“We Have To Know How To Eat Right, Train Right, And Take The Right Over-The-Counter Supplements.” - Phil Heath, 8x Mr. Olympia
With creatine being a staple in any hardcore gym rat’s program since the 1990s, it begs the question
“Which creatine is king?”
Now, you may be thinking…
“It depends.”
No.
It doesn’t.
It seems a new form of creatine hits the market every few months, and people flock like liberals to an anti-gun rally to get their soft, un-calloused hands on it.
(On a side note, never trust a strength coach who doesn’t have calloused hands.)
In the 1990’s it was all about Creatine Monohydrate.
In the 2000’s it was CE2 (Creatine Ethyl-Ester Hydrochloride) and Phosphagen (Creatine Phosphate).
In the 2010’s it was Concrete (Creatine HCL).
As far as the 2020’s I know the new creatine forms like I know new rappers.
No fucking clue.
See, what the supplement industry doesn’t want you to know is that there is one form that trumps the rest when it comes to size and strength gains in the gym…and it’s most likely the one you’re not using.
In a world where “cheapest” doesn’t mean “best” – it does in this case.
With all the newer forms trying to reinvent the wheel of gains for the sake of sales (“newer and better” = marketing 101), those of us with time in the iron game know the truth…
There is yet ONE king creatine
…and it’s the OG.
Creatine Monohydrate.
It’s the cheapest.
It’s the most studied.
It’s the most effective.
It’s the best.
(Trust the science!)
Now, I’m not here to tell you that other forms are not effective.
They may be…
But, there’s a few things to note here:
(1) They may not be effective at the same dose, which means you’ll need more for similar results. This is a problem, especially if these so-called “improved” forms are double and triple the price.
(2) A lot of the “newer” types promote “no negative side effects”. A lot of times they’re talking about water retention and stomach bloat. Well, I’m here to tell you the “water retention” is actually what makes creatine the powerhouse it is. You want it. That’s what will volumize the muscles, help them recover, and help you (indirectly) gain size and strength faster.
(Don’t listen to the 50-something, glove-wearing, belt-shouldering guy at the gym who blames his soft, pudgy appearance on the one-two combo of “it’s bulking season, bruh” and his creatine “cycle”. He’s fat.)
(3) Like any supplement that stood the test of time, improvements in quality and digestibility have been made. Creatine Monohydrate is no different.
If you’re in the market for creatine to boost to your workouts here’s a few things note:
Try to buy “micronized”. Getting micronized creatine mono will help it dissolve better so you’re not chewing sand on that final sip.
Look for the “Creapure” logo on the bottle. This is a German form of creatine mono and in my opinion is the best. It’s a little pricier, but not much. Most other forms of creatine mono come from China.
Check your pre-workout for the type of creatine used. If you really like a certain brand of pre-workout powder and it doesn’t contain creatine mono (or any creatine at all), you can always add it yourself.
Bottom line…
When gains are the topic of conversation, creatine monohydrate should be one of the top supplements on your list.
