Put me right back into the swing of things
"I quit the monohydrate form before COVID started and lost my appetite to work out. Depression, severely sick parent with Long COVID, loss of wages, name it. I didn’t work out for over two years. I mention this because I had experience with Creatine. The monohydrate form worked but had some unwanted side effects-mostly bloating for me.
When recently (a month ago) I started to rededicate to weight lifting, my strength and stamina were shot. I lost years of it and I am just over fifty. I needed a boost so decided to go back to Creatine.
I read about the HCL version and had to give it a shot. Psycho Sloth stuck out to me based on price and I have an affinity for sloths (the animal). This is no lie. Sometimes names of things help my decision making. Good or bad but the ingredients and “story” matched my research requirements.
After a few weeks without HCL (no Creatine) I was struggling to complete my workout series. Then Psycho Sloth arrived. After my very first dose of PS HCL, I was lifting 10% more than the week priors maximum-at all exercises (currently doing full body weight training 3x a week). The following week, another 10% on top of that. The third week, a modest 5% more but it keeps going. Placebo? Don’t know but given there is no preloading required and I took it a half hour before my sessions, I reason it must be the HCL.
I don’t have a trainer and I work out alone so play it safe with max reps but after an hour of heavy lifting (8-10 reps each exercise) I could keep doing more. Given my age and goals, I know better though.
Whether this brand is superior to others or not, I don’t know-which is why I gave it four stars. I am a man of science and did no comparisons under controlled conditions.
My energy levels have boosted, stamina way above expectations, and the fog over my head the past two years has lifted.
I have no plans to stop this. I take it everyday-even though I doubt I have to in order to keep making progress (if the action is as quick as I think it is).
Highly recommended."
Not a powder person? Grab this
"Definitely not a power person. All of my supplements have it in pill form as well as canned form for my pre-workout and yes it sounds like I am high maintenance so take this review as it is I am using creatine take one in the morning one at night two daily basically and this has been so much easier to add onto my regimen and routine that it’s almost like I’m not taking it at all where is with powder for me feel like a chore, so not mad about this"
LOVEEEEEE
"This the oneeeeeee !! I took 2 about an hour before a workout and mannnn I was able to do way more with way more weight for longer periods of time. This absorbed faster than an hour honestly. I was scared it would give me a crazy ton of energy where I’d be bouncing off the walls but it wasn’t like that LOL I’m excited to continue using this stuff and excited to see the results show. This is the only creatine I’ll buy from here on out. The best bang for your buck and all around a great product. My future thighs and bum thanks y’all ????????"
