Banter’s guide to using creatine for strength, muscle growth, and recovery
If you’re lifting weights, training hard, or just want to feel stronger — creatine is one of the best supplements you can take. It’s clean, proven, and effective. But to get the best results, you need to take it the right way.
Here’s your step-by-step guide to using creatine monohydrate for maximum performance — with no fluff, just facts.
✅ What Is Creatine?
Creatine is a natural compound found in your muscles. It helps your body produce energy for short bursts of intense activity — like weightlifting, sprinting, or high-intensity workouts.
When you supplement with creatine, you increase your muscles’ creatine stores. This leads to:
- More strength and power
- Faster recovery between sets
- Increased muscle volume
- Better endurance for short-duration efforts
💪 Top Benefits of Creatine
- Builds lean muscle mass over time
- Improves strength and high-intensity performance
- Boosts recovery and reduces muscle fatigue
- Supports hydration inside muscle cells
- May improve cognitive performance and mental clarity
🔎 Why Choose Creatine Monohydrate?
There are many forms of creatine, but Creatine Monohydrate is:
- The most scientifically studied
- The most effective
- The most affordable
- And what we use at Banter Supplements
🕒 When to Take Creatine (Timing Tips)
The best part? Creatine doesn’t require perfect timing. Here’s what to know:
- Take 5g daily — anytime of day
- Mix it with water, juice, coffee or your protein shake
- Stay consistent — results come from daily use
- Drink plenty of water throughout the day
💡 Some people take it post-workout for convenience, but the most important factor is consistency — not timing.
🚫 Common Creatine Myths (Debunked)
“Creatine is a steroid.”
❌ Not even close. Creatine is a legal, natural substance found in meat and your own body.
“Creatine causes bloating.”
❌ It pulls water into your muscles (not under your skin). That’s how it improves hydration and muscle volume.
“You need to cycle off it.”
❌ There’s no need to stop. Daily use is safe and more effective over time.
