You just mix your creatine in with your protein powder and then eat some more creatine and you'll be a creatine. Support & Follow!- Personal Voiceover: https... | YouTube

@kloi have a look at those links. Not sure how much time I have before my phone goes back into my pocket, so I'm going to mess with some other shit instead of reiterating things I've said in other threads.

Do look into collagen as well. It helps my joints and skin.

@Bozza strongly seconded. Glucosamine plus chondroitin is the most important supplement to take (at least for me).

@Kloi

Have a look into glucosamine. Helps my joints and tendons a lot of they ever end up flaring up.

@Bozza

Few times a year I'll take 2 weeks off the gym. No training whatsoever.

Just took my first recovery week ever. Looked back over my lifts and realized I'd consistently been progressing for 36 weeks, lifting heavy 3 to 6 times per week.

All my joint and tendon pain is gone that I'd been experiencing the last month. Yahh my lifts took a tiny hit but its like noob gains all over again for the next month.

Only area that seems to hurt more from inactivity is my right outside knee. Something in there is tight/fucked.

If you're still making progress on a given regime then keep running it. Don't fix what ain't broke.

Yahh I could have clarified, I may run the same 4-6 week cycle, multiple times in a row, assuming there's no issues.

@Kloi Deadloads and just resting up in general seems to be extremely underrated.

Few times a year I'll take 2 weeks off the gym. No training whatsoever.

When you come back you're often stronger than before.

@Kloi I would say though don't change it up just for the sake of changing it up.

If you're still making progress on a given regime then keep running it. Don't fix what ain't broke.

But otherwise yeah, switching things up, targeting different muscle fibers etc. is worth doing.

@Typo-MAGAshiv

You should change things up every 2-6 weeks

This right here is an idea I've recently adopted. Running 4-6 week cycles that build up to the bigger picture.

That and take a deload week in-between these cycle.

@SeasonedRP

I'm like @Bozza in that I lift a little better if I can go later.

Same.

It's not only from a day of eating carbs like he said earlier; your testosterone levels are usually higher in the evening as well
