I’m trying creatine again and here are my notes💅🏼 #beginnergymtips #gymgirladvice #creatine #winterarctips #gymglowup

So I just started my creatine journey and I'm gonna tell you how I feel about it. So I've been going to gym for about seven years now inconsistently, probably consistently for about three. And I've tried to take creatine a couple of times before but I've never been consistent with it. Now the reason I'm never consistent with it is because I always get horrible stomach cramps and feel like I'm dying after I've been taking it for a few weeks. And the last time it's happened, I've been taking the Lemme creatine gummies for maybe a month and a half. If you get in random stomach cramps and you're on creatine, this is why. So it turns out you just need to drink a lot of water with creatine. So I spoke to my friend who is a coach and she's ripped and she just knows everything. And she convinced me to try it again. So here's been my experience so far. I was worried because I heard that it can break you out when you face puffy and also obviously I'd had the stomach cramps before. So I've been taking it in small, small doses and increasing my dose basically like weekly. So I'm up to a full scoop of day now which is the normal serving size and I have it with a lot of water. I put it in this in the morning, drink the whole thing and then I have like three more of these throughout the day and cup to tea because I feel like if the more sensitive you are, the more water you need to drink. Well that's what I've been told anyway. So I'm doing what I'm told. In terms of changes I've seen. Obviously I've only been taking it for a month so I'm not gonna see any crazy differences but I haven't been breaking out. I don't feel very puffy. Only thing that I have noticed is that my glute pumps are so much better. Now I don't know if this is placebo because my friend told me that this would happen but genuinely every time I do a glute day I am like, so I would recommend it honestly just for that reason. I'm not really feeling any differences in strength yet but I will let you know, I'll keep you updated. I've been told to stay away from gummies because you need to drink a lot of water with creatine and obviously gummies aren't with water which I think is why I was getting stomach cramps. But yeah, I'll keep you in the loop. I'll let you know if I think it's worth it or not, but yeah, just thought I'd update you.
