Does anyone know if caffine decreases the strength of creatine? Some trainer at my gym told me that it does.
Thanx

Thanx BuitOne BigJim77 01-29-2002, 08:56 PM decreasing the strength of it......not sure about that, maybe he was refering to the fact that caffin will reduce water retention and creatine can promote hydration of the muscle cell.....but I don't think you would have anything to worry about... Titaniumspine 01-29-2002, 10:06 PM Buff was right on.... Coffee has diuretic affects. Therefore, you should drink at least one to 2 more glasses of water per each cup of coffee you drink, to avoid being counterproductive. I would also caution agains taking caffeine with orange juice as the acidity of the juice will destroy it. Also, I would avoid taking caffeine first thing in the am, followed by several cups of coffee, as the coffee will take the needed water by causing you to piss it out...... |
