This question is for like, gym dudes and trainers.?

Question

Yo im 13. Im benching about 90 pounds now, and I've been doin it for about a month. My dad's got a really nice gym in the downstairs. Hes got a smith machine, a bench press, a leg press, and a lot of other stuff, by Body Solid. Thats not about the question. I take creatine, and i play hockey. I notice that when im taking the creatine, my shot speed and accuracy decreases, but creatine does gradually make you stronger. This shouldnt happen. When im off the creatine, my shot speed is about 85 mph.( im a big kid ). Should I continue taking creatine ( ZMA ON ), or should I stop. I do whatever the directions say, so I'm being safe.

Answer 1

Okay before you freak out on my answer, I am a certified trainer. You dont need to be taking creatine, nor should you be lifting heavy weights yet. Being 13 your human growth plates have not completely formed so if you are lifting heavy weights you are putting too much stress on these plates and that will actually make your plates stop growing thus stunting your growth.

As for the creatine, it is to enlarge your muscle and make you look bigger by adding water to your muscles, so of course your speed and accuracy would decrease. Creatine has not be around long enough to know that long term side effects of adding extra water to your muscles. I do not advise taking creatine and none of my clients take creatine and they are doing just fine, and I do train hockey players.

Answer 2

Stop taking it because

1) You are too young for it

2) I think your muscles are becoming bigger (because of this creatine) and weight lifting muscles are not good if you want to have speed. Lift less weight and quick creatine.

Answer 3

Hmmm... sure you are shallow. You must simply admit that now and begin being sincere with your self earlier than you lose your self totally to your imaginary international of best men and women in which handiest your self particularly exists. Secondly, I'm certain you'll be able to see if he's bodily in form, among looking at his crossed eyes. Just considering the fact that he has a bloodless doesn't suggest he's physcially undeserving. If he's spluttering maybe he must now not be running with men and women who're looking to get healthful. But that is simply unlucky for you. Get over it hun. We all 'suppose' ultimate matters in existence, the situation is that existence is certainly not ultimate, the leisure people simply get on with it.
