hi sweet humans 🌸

welcome to my tiny corner of the internet

꒰ 🌱 ꒱

today we talk about creatine

but as a beginner, no gym-pro/ science pro,

just me making my little research, trying to understand things, try things (got creatine for christmas)🍃🌸

⋆｡˚ ✿ ˚｡⋆

🌿 what even IS creatine?🌿

okay so imagine this:

your muscles are little workers. when you move, lift, run, jump -> they need energy.

creatine is like a tiny energy battery your body already has!

✨ surprise: your body makes it itself

and you also get it from food (like meat or fish)✨

...so when people take creatine as a supplement, they are just adding a bit more battery power 🔋

❀ ⋆ ❀ ⋆ ❀

mostly so they can:

♡ feel a bit stronger

♡ do maybe one more rep

♡ recover a little faster

almost magical. nothing scary. very science actually (づ｡◕‿‿◕｡)づ

⋆ ──── ✦ ──── ⋆

🌸 what creatine is NOT

♡｡･ﾟ✧｡･ﾟ✧｡･ﾟ✧

❌ it is NOT steroids

❌ it does NOT change your hormones

❌ it does NOT instantly make you huge

it just helps muscles hold more water + energy

that’s it. ( ´ ω ` )

So if you don't workout, theres no significant (proven) change🍃

୨୧ ───────── ୨୧

🍃 now… a gentle talk for young people 💗

if you are young (teenager / still growing):

✨ you really, truly, honestly do not need creatine

✨ your body is already in its ✨prime growth mode✨

✨ food + sleep + movement = more than enough

💌 my big-sister advice :

when you are young,

eating enough (๑ᵔ⤙ᵔ๑),

(＿ ＿*) Z z z sleeping a lot,

learning good form (ง ˙o˙)ง,

( ˶ˆᗜˆ˵ ) not stressing your body,

is the best "supplement".

adding powders won’t make things better ,sometimes confusing (⊙_⊙)

learn to trust your body early (｡•́‿•̀｡)

⋆｡˚ ✿ ˚｡⋆

🌿 why adults sometimes take it ?

people in their 20s / 30s (hi, it’s me, 27 ✨) sometimes use creatine because:

❀ life is stressful

❀ recovery is slower than at 16

❀ training goals are more specific

but even then:

it’s optional, not a must

🍃 ─── 🌸 ─── 🍃

if you are new to fitness like me :

🌱 don’t rush

🌱 don’t copy everything from Social Media

🌱 you are already doing enough by starting

creatine will still exist later. (Also quite expensive tbh)

your health + relationship with your body is more important 💗
