- antupis 4y agoyup personally I don't know anybody who have got that when training and what I have heard it is usually not enough water + some sketchy supplements like https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydroxycut https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydroxycut .
- FartyMcFarter 4y agoWhat does creatine have to do with it? If anything, creatine seems to reduce the risk, by reducing the amount of muscle damage: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5371628/#:~:text=Overall%2C%20the%20available%20data%20strongly,rhabdomyolysis%2C%20not%20a%20higher%20risk https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5371628/#:~:tex.... "Overall, the available data strongly suggest that creatine supplementation prior to an endurance exercise challenge reduces muscle damage and inflammation in athletes, both of which would predict a lower risk of rhabdomyolysis, not a higher risk."
- snovv_crash 4y agoCreatine gives you extra strength which could allow you to push your muscles harder.
- geraldwhen 4y agoCreatine is processed by the kidneys, which exacerbated or caused the rhabdo. The kidneys were too stressed to handle the muscle breakdown.
