I don't think that's very likely McJimmie! :-D Not with your strength progress!

My unassisted are only negatives. I have to give myself a bounce to get up to the top position.

I have to say though, my strength in this area is improving noticeably. My biceps are v impressive *flexes*

It's a supplement, meant to help with strength in the gym and other things. Doesn't work for everyone. But is the supplement with the most positive testing done on it. This thread yesterday should give you more info.

It's a legal and safe supplement that helps you work harder in the gym. It works v well for some people, and poorly for others. Barcode started a thread on it the other day, and shuts had a link to more in depth info on it here.

I have no idea if it is suitable for your goals or if you would even want to try it.

What is creatine?
Creatine is one of the most popular sports supplements on the market and is used by bodybuilders, athletes, sportsmen and women alike. Creatine is a compound made naturally in our bodies as an energy replenisher. It is manufactured in the liver, kidneys and pancreas and secreted into blood for transport to muscle (amongst other) tissues. Its chemical name is methylguanido-acetic acid, formed from the amino acids arginine, methionine and glycine.

Does creatine work?
Well no supplement 'works' per se; supplements merely 'supplement'; but, yes, creatine, when consumed in correct doses, will help the individual receive the desired effects. Creatine is probably the most scientifically researched sports supplement ever, providing strong evidence that it helps improve performance. However, a few individuals do report that they have not noticed any notable improvements from using creatine.

What does creatine do?
Creatine has a number of major functions as a sports supplement. All of these functions revolve around its function as an energy replenisher through it forming the creatine phosphate (CP or phosphocreatine) molecule.
