Weight Gain question

[mjs91882]

I am currently 155 lbs and 5 ft 10 in. I wanna gain weight and add muscle. Im thinking about taking Muscle Milk and also Creatine. I guess my only problem with taking Ceatine is, i hear it makes u get fat and i guess just wanna make sure that it wont affect me working out on my abs, as in me storing fat in that area and not being able to show off my abs. I dont have full abs yet with great deff, but hope to. What should i do? Cut first, and work on my abs etc, or just jump in and gain weight???

Thanks for any help ..

hey mjs,

first of all.... i recomend trying CEE, it absorbs much better than regular old monohydrate. It also will minimize bloating and NOT give you that "fat" look. creatine isnt supposed to make you look "fat", just big(muscles). second... creatine wont give you much definition in the sense of being cut in your abdominals. you'll have to diet and start CUTting.... try some CLA while cutting it helps reduce bf, specially around the abs.

but which comes first??...bulking or cutting?? although i cant see how you can be 5'10 and 155 and not have much definition. bulk, then cut in order to trim off any fat you migh have added on while bulking....and then some.

well creatine wont make u fat lol..... it can get u bloated and it can pack water which may go along with that story but water retention will go away after u quit cycling it... With CEE, water retention is mostly eliminated so u can cycle it without the bloating, etc....

u need to bulk, supplement wise you should focus on PROTEIN since your just starting out... creatine wont help u much, wait a few months and get use to lifting before u spend the $ on supplements... make the best use of them..

as for the muscle milk, i would really focus on spending your money on good foods as i think they will help u grow faster n better than any supplement (especially a weight gainer)

go read the sticky(s) at this board too, they will help you BIG TIME
