Creatine - anyone using it to enhance their meet performance?
Former Member
Just wondering. We have a little debate in our club if it is effective or not for swimmers. I know 100 - 200 m athlete sprinters use it frequently, so it might be interesting for at least 50 m distances in the pool.
Comments anyone?

Speaking of this milk thing, and a potential counterpoint, I listened to a radio show recently (the People's Pharmacy on NPR) and they had a guest who said there is very little proven effectiveness of drinking milk in adults. He said humans are the only animals that drink milk beyond the age in which it is intended to benefit the body, that being birth to adolescence.
I found this interesting and am neither endorsing nor denying, just passing along.
Thanks for the info on the creatine cramping issue. That's the last thing I want in the pool.
I've hear alot of negative about milk too.
