Nino’s Mission

My Thoughts On Creatine

June 26th, 2007

Hey my friend! Gee what’s this I see…. is that a smile on your face! Yeah Nino I actually couldn’t wait to get here today, and tell you the good news! Gee my friend I’ve never seen you this excited before, it must be something incredible! Gee don’t keep me in suspense my friend! So what’s the good news?? Ok Nino I’m sorry! Well Nino remember our discussion we had last week on “Diet Pills”! Gee I sure do my friend! Actually it’s still fresh in my mind!

Gee Nino it’s like I’ve been telling you over and over again! Nino you know how to put things in the right perspective, to where people would have no choice but to follow your advise!Gee my friend why do I have a feeling that this has something, to do with your sister taking diet pills! Well Nino your right again! Gee Nino my sister did exactly what you advised her to do with the pills! I’m sorry my friend could you refresh my memory on exactly what I advised, your sister and everyone else to do with the pills!

Gee Nino no problem! We’ve  covered so many topics so far it would even… be hard for me to remember every little detail! Nino your advise was to put the diet pills down the drain and that’s exactly, what my sister did without any hesitation! Nino my family and I can’t thank you enough for helping my sister realize, that her taking diet pills was definitely not the right avenue for her to take any longer! Nino I’m happy to say she is now taking you’re ”The No Excuse Avenue” to getting that dream body!

Well my friend you just made my day! I feel like a broken record telling you this over and over again, but this is the main reason why God has me on this mission! Simply to help educate and motivate you without, making any excuses whatsoever in your life! Listen if you really want to thank someone you should be thanking God, for bringing me those special people in my life to have made Nino’s Mission possible!

Ok my friend now that I cleared that up again to you! I think we should really get to our next topic of discussion today! Gee Nino I’m sorry I’ve been doing alot of talking and I’m taking all your time today! My friend don’t ever think that your wasting my time! Listen remember my mission is all about helping you, and I’m so glad that I was able to help your sister!

Ok my friend let’s get moving to our next discussion!

I’m ready Nino!

Well my friend I thing were going to approach things, a little different today than we usually do! Gee ok Nino so what do you have in mind? Well my friend I think I’m going to leave our next topic of discussion… completely up to you! We can discuss anything that you’ve been wanting to ask me about! Gee Nino that’s funny that you would say that because there is something that’s been on my mind, that I wanted to get your thoughts on! 

Great!!

 What is it my friend??  

Well Nino I know that we discussed supplements a while back, and let me just tell you I’ve learned alot about them thanks to you! Nino I actually wanted to ask you your thoughts, on taking creatine? Nino I figured before I go out to buy a jug of it, I wanted to ask what your thoughts were on taking creatine? Nino I definitely don’t want waste my money if it’s something I don’t need! Well my friend it’s like I’ve been telling you, you’ve matured so much since we’ve been together!

 Believe or not my friend taking the right supplements today, is not an easy task for anyone to figure out on their own! For instance just when you think you got a handle on all the supplements out there today, they come out with a whole bunch more that we need to do research on! Listen taking supplements today my friend, is like weight training we learn new things everyday! Well that being said my friend it would be my pleasure to give you my thoughts on creatine, and wether it’s something that you need to be taking!

So my friend in my next blog I’m going to tell you my thoughts, as well as some advantages and disadvantages that you can expect to occur when taking creatine! Ok my friend what I’m about to tell you next, might really surprise you so have your ears wide open! Gee Nino what is it?? Well after I give you my thoughts on creatine my friend I’m going to leave it, completely up to you if you want to give it a try!

Gee Nino are you trying to be funny again??

Absolutely not my friend!

Nino the only reason why I ask is because everything that we’ve discussed about supplements so far, you’ve steered me away from using alot of them! Well my friend this is the one time that your going to, be making the choice not “me”!

My friend have your ears wide open …. because I’m about to explain to you why!

Are you ready??

Yeah Nino! I even have my pen and pad ready!

Great!!

Here we go again!

Ok my friend! First let me explain to you why I said your going to be making the final choice… on wether you want to take creatine or not! Well my friend It’s simply because I’ve been taking creatine, as part of my diet ever since I started to weight train! Believe or not my friend creatine is an important part of our daily supplementation! Just like we need our daily protein requirements alot of people don’t know, we also need to get enough creatine in our diets as well! 

Gee Nino I really didn’t expect you to talk about creatine so highly! Well my friend don’t get used to it because this will probaby be, the one and only time that you’ll hear me talk like this about a supplement! Believe or not my friend creatine can be taken alot of different ways! My friend I bet you’ve been taken creatine all along in your daily meals, and you probably didn’t even know it!

Gee Nino I thought creatine can only be found… in health food stores! Nino I thought that creatine only can be taken ….. in powder or pill form! Yeah my friend that is definitely true….. but it can also be found in food! Let me give you some examples, of the types of food I’m talking about! Well let’s see creatine can be found in chicken and red meat! I know how some people feel about ….. eating alot of red meat today! They simply avoid eating too much of it as possible! Well I got news for you all start eating more red meat in your diet! It’s the best natural source of creatine that you can possibly, have today in your diet! Oh might I also add my friend that it’s healthy for us as well!

Gee Nino I think I’m beginning to understand why your going to leave, the decision, totally  up to me wether or not I want to try creatine or not! Gee Nino believe or not I’ve been already eating, alot of red meat and chicken in my diet!

Great!

Ok my friend now it’s time to tell you some advantages your going to see by taking creatine! Well for starters your going to see an increase in your strength as well as your size! I have a feeling this next one is really going to surprise you! Believe or not my friend creatine will help your muscles, recover alot quicker after an intense workout! Gee Nino I didn’t know that…. I guess I’m learning alot today!

Listen my friend all in all creatine is safe to take…. like I said it’s found in red meat and chicken! God knows I eat lots of chicken and red meat on a daily basis! Gee Nino from the sounds of it creatine, is more than ok for anyone to take today! Nino I remember you stating earlier their were some disadvantages as well, but I didn’t hear you mention any! 

Gee Nino you were just kidding right??

Gee my friend don’t get so excited!! I’m about to tell you the disadvantages right now… so keep your ears wide open! Actually my friend I’m going to go back to where you stated to me earlier, that creatine could only be taken in powder or pill form! Well this is where the disadvantages…. come into play my friend!

My friend are you listening??

Yeah Nino!

Well if you decide to take creatine in powder or pill form instead…. you can expect this to happen! Let’s start with the powder form! My friend taking creatine using powder you will find it contains alot of artificial sugars! Which as we all know will be turned into fat! My friend here’s one more for you….  you will gain alot of water weight as well! Gee Nino I definitely don’t want that to happen to me! Well that’s what you can expect my friend… if you decide to go the powder route!

Ok my friend now on to the pill form! Well my friend as you now know from our last discussion we had on taking diet pills, we have to be deeply concerned about the side effects! I’ll be totally honest with you I’ve never taken creatine by pill, so I really don’t know about the side effects they can cause! I can probably can tell you one thing my friend that I’m sure of…. the effects can’t be good for you!

Well there you have it my friend…. my thoughts on creatine! I certainly hope that I was able to help you decide, how you want to go about taking it! Gee Nino I think the decision is pretty easy to make! Gee my friend if you don’t mind me asking…..what might that be?? Nino I’m going to continue to take creatine naturally by continuing to eat alot of red meat and chicken! Well my friend it’s like I’ve been telling you! You’ve definitely matured quite a bit and this is another good reason why…… great decision!!
