Re: protein drinks and weight gain drinks

I'm not discounting creatine. It is beneficial. I just personally don't believe its needed by beginners. I do believe its over hyped and people take it hoping that its a miracle supplement. I've used plenty of creatine in the past and will more than likely use it again. But its not necessary to make good gains, IMO.
But, if a person is going to use it, I think the most effective way is by taking a supplement like Cell Tech which increases uptake greatly.

100% agreed. I see many people who can barely curl their shaker cup pounding back creatine and felxing their 12" gunzzz. A beginner should not worry about supplements, only a multi, whey and a PWO drink.
Edit - I am not discounting creatine, but too many people rely on it and think its a fix and will neglect aspects of their training and diet. Fill the leaks before you start using it, that;s all.
