probpt Posted April 7, 2006 Share Posted April 7, 2006 im not sure so somebody please correct me if im wrong...i think the reason for the red spots (could be pimples) is that youre not working out effectively or hard enough to use up the creatine you intake. either you work out harder or reduce your intake/dosage.

bigboner Posted April 7, 2006 Share Posted April 7, 2006 One more thing, I've noticed was I suddenly developed "BEEF ALLERGY". This would mean staying away from my fave misono meals. Darn ... Today it is just horrible cause my dinner last night was BEEF SINIGANG. This morning, the spot amplified like tigdas and all. I went to my dermatologist and she gave an anti-allergy medication(they are not pimples). Right now they are seemed tamed. I take it 1 hour before my 50 minute work out. That's a single scoop with 16 oz of water in a shaker with a table spoon of sugar and guys I drink a cup of water during my 90 second rest between sets. That's an every other day ritual. With a goal of gaining weight, I find Creatine great. I pig out a lot on carbs. A lot of rice, wheat bread, non-fat milk, cereals, a lot of taho, eggs, chicken, no to anything fried and sweets. I REALLY EAT BIG. It gives amazing results for me. Before I was only 105 lbs. and now I'm 123 lbs. after 4 weeks!!! It is just this allergy that sucks. I will try to stop taking it for a week and try to stop working out for one week. After that, I'll try to reduce the dosage to a half scoop everytime I work out. I hope it wil be effective. but if the spots come back I will change my Weider brand to another. Did you guys also experienced this red spots? What did you do with it? Quote Link to comment
Olympus Posted April 8, 2006 Share Posted April 8, 2006 You must remembr to increase water intake by at least 50% when on creatine One more thing, I've noticed was I suddenly developed "BEEF ALLERGY".

What did you do with it?<{POST_SNAPBACK}> bro,what makes you say that it was caused by the creatine you are taking?...could it be something else?...just my two cents...you shouldn't stop WORKING out for a week just to analyze your creatine usage, however, you should discontinue using the CREATINE for a week...for me, it's hard to get back to momentum of working out after a week of lay off...just my two cents...noah Quote Link to comment
