Proving my point about how people can't tell the difference between lumbar and hip flexion :)

In the first vid the guy is "bending" at his lower back. In the second example the guy is bending at his hips and the lower back stays in the same set position as Pity was explaining. You just have to look closer and try to see the difference.

Once you get it you'll wonder how you missed it.

Am I supposed to be taking Creatine every day, or just after every WO?

Pitysister 09-28-2008 04:47 PM

usually every day, just to maintain levels.

on your warmup sets....i would not go for five reps that close to your working weight...keep it to two or 3 reps and conserve your energy for the working sets.

if you exceed 5g of creatine a day...you could end up with some bloating issues.

dougz 09-30-2008 08:57 PM

Aren't I supposed to "load" for the first couple days?

Pitysister 10-01-2008 03:45 AM

not really any need as we've all found out :) just gets you to use up the product faster.
