69 yrs old.. i take creatine and it works...weight lift 3x weekly, moderate weight till failure.Finish each workout with15 min. on stationary bike at lvl 10. .my doctors are always pleasantly surprised seeing an old guy with muscles.. they smile and say whatever youre doing, keep it up and invariably ask how do u do it at your age? I tell em no one gets out of this life alive but I'm going down swinging...
66 work out 7 days a week otherwise I will probably start skipping workouts more, so just part of my daily routine. Month layoff from eye surgery recovery started taking it 2 weeks ago. Back at the gym, still started slow, rather cramped for bench press. But it seems to provide very strong endurance performance to try more. Much longer lift endurance. I can do bench pause reps 5 seconds, 5 reps at wts to 125 lbs to zoom back up in shape where I left off.
Yep, I have plenty of it and I use it daily, I have always hit the weights since I was a teenager, now I am 61 and creatine does work for us mature people as well.
Dudes, here's a fun fact! Since you mentioned resistance training lowering fall risk: falling down (all forms included) is the number one cause of death. It surpasses heart disease, weapons and everything else but is rarely included in statistics.
My girlfriends organic chemistry professor told her that the body naturally produces creatine and by supplementing it your body would stop producing it naturally. Should I be concerned about taking creatine supplements?
It does, but not much😂 If you eat red meat you don’t NEED creatine but taking it does have benefits try it for yourself i felt stronger on it than off it! If you lift heavy just do what you want tbh bro it gives you crazy gains and reduces the affects of DOMS(delayed onset muscle soreness) I feel my workouts way more now that i’m off it, i’m only off because i cycle it during the winter when my shirts not off as much bc it takes my abs away😭
It would be a very worthy cause for you guys to take up. The fight against muscular atrophy supported by the appalling general exercise advice spewed out by Western health authorities. Running is an appalling way to exercise as you get older. It effectively speeds up sarcopenia. It has a minor place in a fitness program, but should be strictly limited to a timescale that won’t promote an adaptation to it. 20 minutes every other day, with strength training on the other days being the primary focus of an exercise program.
I took a creatine supplement in the past and followed the directions, but started to notice slight hair loss. I’m a guy and would rather comb my hair than polish my head.
It doesn't work for everyone. I felt my left kidney when taking creatine, also the heart region(had high blood pressure in the past, being sensitive to salt). The body holding water when using creating may play a role in this as well. Tried it several occasions. Same results each time. I leave it alone. Some good things aren't good for everyone. Just ignore it when it's not working positive for you.
I got really sick from alcohol and I was dying my liver and kidneys were shutting down. But took about a year and a half to get to where I could start exercising and working out at you know 1/5 of what I used to and I was taking creatine and I had to stop because it was affecting my kidney readings I'd love to be able to but I am not taking chance of having more ascites cuz that's horrible and I can't function at all when I'm putting on the fluids. But thanks
I used it regularly for a while while working out. Did Absolutely Nothing. Don't use it. Save yr money. Just Train hard n regular n eat good natural food🤔
I really like these guys , but It’s a shame they’re not interested in elaborating? That’s what would make the advice usable, otherwise it’s just click bait?
Hey doctors I’m a healthy man, 34 yo I took creatine for almost one year, one scoop on my day of workouts cz I’m a bodybuilder.when I tested the serum creatinine it was 1.1 and the borderline is 1.2 The dr suggested me to stop taking creatine. Is it normal that the creatinine elevates when taking creatine? Is it normal ?
Not gonna talk about the nooptropic and neuroprotective properties of creatine. This is the longest and most thoroughly studied supplement ever, and these docs gloss over it..
@@TalkingWithDocs The big suck up of water into muscles to me appears imaginary, another biomyth. I see no bloat, no more thirst, no water retention, no big muscle definition, no weight gain using it. Now, using it two weeks starting at 2.5g/day, sideffect is stomach cramps and really soft stools and pooping in 30 min for a week. Then up to 5g/day four days, that again one day. Now up to 10g/day and nothing but wt lifting endurance under load is really long and strong.
Kaili Muscle disagree...and I disagee...my ex husband took it for 4 months...he was losing hair and it shrank his penis...we went to the doctor and she told him to STOP taking the creatine...after close to 2 months without Creatine his private size came back...he lost all those beautiful muscles from the Creatine and his sperm count was low...at that time he was 32..
Oh boy, I misread that… I thought it said “ Kratom,” LOL!!! 😂……I was like, “good for old people???” This is a why doom scrolling YT at 1:30am mid mild panic attack is bad for your health ..
talk to your doctor first, but it is generally not recommended for people with existing kidney or liver issues, high blood pressure, or diabetes. from what i'm seeing online though i see no negatives for heart issues
Working out without it I got severe leg cramps at night several times. Started taking BCAAs and it stopped or I got in shape. Month off recovery from eye surgery, now back, got cramps again, taking BCAAs, but cramps way, way less. Don't have to work my legs for leg cramps, just doing bench press, upper body workout mostly. At this point taking 10g/day creatine. Been going up in dose since starting two weeks ago. So the pattern for me would be no, creatine is not the cause. It seems to start up with strong workout regimen.
They fix that video actually and said that you'll need to eat more meals if your really active bc study show you absorb only 25 gram of protein per meal
@MrPauloAmf plus in your original reply you say "nothing" to do with aging then in your second response you say "it's not just aging" implying aging has something to do with it..
You start losing muscle mass because your testosterone level start to decline at that age so no don’t get on creatine get on TRT testosterone replacement therapy

Just eat red meat. Steak it up girl
@@Diseaseisreversible Same thing, but creatine is much cheaper.
How do you select a brand? What do you use and why?
This is good to know that it helps when we’re older. Thank you for this information.

All online vid reviews of literature on it, never heard of that one.
Doesn't matter what a chemistry prof thinks.
@@donaldkasper8346 but creatine is an organic compound and he is a professor of organic chemistry.

Mobility is also super important as you get older.
It's great to hear medical doctors providing this information!!! You two don't have anything to gain by advocating for its use.
What is the difference between creatine and creatinine?
We would love to know what vitamins and minerals the doctors take? Love your channel!!
Ok that's a great idea!

Creatine does not promote hair loss that all your genetics if you like steak you eat Creatine

Both.

Good to know 👍👍
Dr noodle arm.. I agree with this content

In what amounts and what time of day/night? Thanks!
Great question. I'm hoping they will answer
@@marciajohnson1825 Any time.
What would be the dosage? Thank you.
Usually 5g is the norm
5 grams a day, or 25 grams a day for 2 weeks then drop to 5 grams a day.
The first is a maintenance dose.
The second is a super compensation dose.
I had no idea! Thank you
Happy to help!
Can elderly (my 80yr grandma) take creatinine. She does NOT excercise but has sarcopenia.. can she take it even though she doesnt excercise?
I think she would have to exercise.
Please can you make a video on the effect of prolonged standing in men
I really like these guys , but It’s a shame they’re not interested in elaborating?
That’s what would make the advice usable, otherwise it’s just click bait?
We have a long form video all about creatine. You should watch it!
With all this knowledge they have you would think they would be two beast I think they should both do a 9 month bodybuilding challenge
Thanks.God bless.
Can a guy with T2DM in young consume whey protein or creatine or any other supplements out there?
How much water should you take and how should somebody mitigate the potential risks to renal health
Hard to say the specific fluid intake but it is important to hydrate.
Yeah can also make you hold on to weight
Can I take it at 14? And if so how much?
Whoa 😳! You guys actually know something about creatine! Did you know that creatine is great for your Brain 🧠?
Thank you guys for the reminder. My 36 year old son is VERY BIG on this stuff....drinks it every morning.
make sure he stays hydrated whilst on it, or it can be quite harmful
@znn4125 thank you very much

Hey doctors
I’m a healthy man, 34 yo
I took creatine for almost one year, one scoop on my day of workouts cz I’m a bodybuilder.when I tested the serum creatinine it was 1.1 and the borderline is 1.2
The dr suggested me to stop taking creatine. Is it normal that the creatinine elevates when taking creatine? Is it normal ?
Doesn't creatine make creatinine?
Talk about what these supplements do to the organs , shit is no beuno you really think they would shit out these products if they were good for us
Is it bad for people with diabetes or kidney problems?
If you have significant medical issues it is worth discussing with your doctor before taking it
@@TalkingWithDocs thank you 👍
But doesn’t creatine cause baldness? Or hair thinning?
Biomyth.
Can my 11 year old son take creatine
It’ll burden one’s kidneys, bad idea for people on dialysis.
Please give examples resistant training..😁😁😁
Weight lifting or calisthenics
@@thememegang5395 Calisthenics is cardio. Resistance training is wt machines, dumbbells, and wt lifting with squats, lifts, bench presses.
Does creatine mess with blood pressure? Does anyone know ?
Never saw a vid summary of literature online saying anything about blood pressure so that appears to be a no.
Yeah something positive for the bros !
Not gonna talk about the nooptropic and neuroprotective properties of creatine. This is the longest and most thoroughly studied supplement ever, and these docs gloss over it..
Short gunshot vid.
Loving thank
What's your opinion on creatine hcl vs mono?
Mono is the most studied and I think is the easiest to absorb into the body.
Hcl is expensive and not worth it
You still need to drink a ton of water or you risk developing kidney stones...
Agree
Sure. I see no bloat and no weight gain taking it. Kidney stones are oxalate.

Yes but you need to eat about 2 pounds per day.
So take creatine but you don’t need all that much protein? You guys are funny.

recommended creatine: 3-5g
recommended protein: 1.5-2g per kg of BW
Sarcopenia its part of aging just in sedentary with bad diet individuals. Nothing to do with just aging
False
The reason they are sedentary is probably from movement disability due to muscle loss.
There are a bunch of papers showing the muscles loss is related to change of habits not just aging. "False" elaborate on your "False"
