Yes. Use Orgain. Take 5mg if its just for lifting. Take 10-15 if its for brain/cognitive

performance. Your muscles are going to use the first 5mg of whatever you take, so if you are using it for improved cognitive function then you need another 5 to 10mg additionally.

I dump a scoop or two in my first cup of coffee each morning.

Also muscle maintenance though. Strength training is a bit new for me but I’m really loving it.

Then take a minimun of 10mg a day. If you have any family history of cognitive decline

if you "trust the science" everyone should use it, regardless if they are lifting, because there are cognitive benefits as well.

i just use a brand called force factor that i pull from amazon. its not going to be as "clean" as some of the top brands, but its good enough, and we arent really competing for anything other than being a better version of ourselves. ive never had any ill effects from it (i.e. stomach). but like anything, if you want to spend more, you can get something "cleaner"; i just dont know that you or i would notice any iota of difference.

Agreed. Especially for men upon reaching a certain age, I think you need to . . .

. . . have a plan for maintaining at least some of your natural muscle mass, even if you do not want to lift weights.

Yes. I have used a couple different ones for approximately a year now,.

One from Meijer (it's own "house" brand) and more recently, Orgain which I got at Costco for a really good price.

Both are 5mg creatine monohydrate which I think is all you really need. I was taking it twice a day but I recently switched to just once. A routine blood test last year demonstrated that my creatine level was in the "high" range. Which didn't bother my doctor. I just figure that I maybe do not need to take as much as I was.

much cleaner and higher protein content, just FYI.

Would you say it's whey better?

Is there a specific brand you like?

I buy all Optimum Nutrition. There are a lot of good brands out there

but I've never had a problem with them at all, and I like the chocolate flavor.

I also buy their Amino Energy powder. I usually put a scoop of creatine in with that in the morning, and then a scoop in my C4 before the gym.

Optimum sponsors the pride of Odebolt, Cooper motherfucking DeJean, so they are best*
