Noone is saying this stuff doesn't work. Dave Tate is not lying if he said it works. The point is this is not a revolutionary product. Its overpriced supplements/nutrients. A gain of 15 lbs.? Over how long? Is it all muscle? Alot of what they say can be misleading especially to the beginner. Not everyone has the ability to read between the lines. 345 a month? Are you f****** kidding me? Wether it works or doesn't is beside the point. Its a ripoff. For the last and final time. Noone is saying this stuff doesn’t work. Dave Tate is not lying if he said it works.

I have seen how it supposedly helps with endurance BUT they really used high doses in some of the studies...some obscene amount and that amount isn't in the protocol. Also, the other study I saw, was done with intense hand grip exercises where the set lasted 15sec...I don't think many of the exercises sets in most muscle building routines last 15seconds. It seems like there is little proof this supp. As far as loading, you can use the protocol you mentioned, but if speed is an issue. You can saturate you body with creatine just the same by taking the 5g a day, after a month it'll all be the same. Cycling is also unecessary if you are taking 5g a day at maintenance, 10g a day is not needed, 5g is enough for most people unless they are huge...say over 200lbs. There is some research of downregulation in animals but that can not be said for humans. I hope I didn't butcher too much of the info I got a lot of it the from Lyle's book, The Protein Book, it has a small section on lots of supps. Good resource. Ok, I’m curious about the pyruvate here.
