Anybody try it? My doc says he thinks it’s okay, but I’m wondering if it helps along with resistance training. Thanks.

  Hi,

  My Son takes Creatine to help with muscle soreness when he works out. What do you want it to do along with resistance training?

  Because Lupron shuts down testosterone you start losing muscle mass pretty fast. I’m going to step up my resistance training but wondered if creatine would help supplement my efforts to slow or stop losses.

  Hi,

  My son also takes a Protein powder supplement to build muscle mass.
