    second, it's proven you will lose strength and certain size (anywhere from 2-7lbs) just from the water weight that was retained in your muscles.
    Sorry I didn't specify. CREATINE Esthyr(spll?) is not a monohydrate which HOLDS WATER WEIGHT which is exactly what you are talking about. I take a creatine via pill NOT power b/c I hold water badly. and if its "proven" then explain to me how my bench went up 15lbs the following off month? I was @ 250lbs when on creatine, and hit 265lbs when I wasn't taking anything at all....you don't lose strength..the ****s in ur head



    And as far as the comment on "you can gain muscle adn lose weight at the same time" is a load of ****.Your knowledgable to an extent, but dude you've got a lot to learn. Burning and building really depends on what your working. If I wanna get to 3% body fat and rip then I diet, and work my abs and do sprints(not long distance b/c that actually burns muscle instead of fat) and I build else where...Where ever you heard you can't bulk and rip at the same time..is a load of sh*t..

    Now if your saying that your not going to lose weight while building muscle I'll take that. But you can still shred body fat. In turn looking leaner/stronger/healthier. Which is most peoples goal. I mean honestly, who the hell wants to just be skinny with no muscle on them? Very few people. When people say "I wanna lose weight" thats translated into "I wanna lose body fat" or "I wanna be lean" etc. It's all about eating healthy, training hard and resting in between. Getting lean doesn't necessarily mean "lose weight". I have a client right now that came to me(he's 17 years old and 225lbs @ 6 foot 1 inchess tall, and 16% body fat) He said " I wanna be ripped but still have muscle. In 1 months time he's lost 8lbs(I've got him till the end of july) and he is toning up big time. He's on the same diet I have posted above and works with me only 3 days a week. His goal is to cut his body fat percentage in half...He's well on his way. Different things work for different people but leaning out and bulking you CAN do at the same time, it just depends on what your working and how you work it and what you "fuel" youself with(eating, suppliments etc)
