Women's Bodybuilding recently became a mainstream
sport, as more and more women hit the gym to gain size, strength,
muscle, and self-confidence. Supplements, nutrition,
and diet also play a huge role in woman bodybuilding, so this
article is about womens bodybuilding and creatine
There are fundamental differences between women's
bodybuilding and men's bodybuilding - most notably, biological
differences. This is true in the case of supplements. For example,
steriods increases your testosterone levels significantly, and
have negative side effects for both men and women. However, these
effects may annoy female bodybuilders more so, as everyone knows,
testosterone deepens your voice, and produces more hair on your
body. What about creatine for women bodybuilders? Should they
use it too?
When female bodybuilders take creatine, they
will gain some weight, but some of this weight gain is due to
water retention from the creatine. Best way to avoid this is using
creatine products designed specifically for women. Also, some
fitness females may not wish to gain large muscle mass, but get
fit and get in shape. These fitness females can still use creatine
since creatine does not creat muscle mass, and it does provide
higher levels of energy during workouts. It's not what supplements
you take that determines your build, but your workout program.
In general, there are some minor negative effects
associated with creatine, and this include upset stomach, muscle
cramping, diarrhea and dehydration. It is safe for women bodybuildes
to use creatine, and women bodybuilders do use it.
