Creatine and Protein Shake while on Testosterone

[andrecan2009]

He Everyone,

I have started my testosterone therapy about 6 weeks ago and I currently weigh 260 pounds. Thus, I have started working out 4 - 5 days a week since week 3. I was wondering if it is acceptable to take Creatine and Protein shake while on testosterone replacement therapy? My goal is to build muscle and burn fat.

Thanks

Of course it's fine to take.

Best to bookend your work outs with a shake.

Here's what I do for both pre and post work out shakes:

1 Full Scoop Whey Protein (28 grams of protein)
1 Full Scoop Creatine Monohydrate
1 Full Scoop Branch Chain Amino Acids
1 Full Scoop of Beta Alanine
1 Cup 2% Reduced Milk

I do the pre shake 30 minutes before working out and the post on the way out of the gym.

This is proven stack that will get you results as far as protein shakes and working out are concerned.

I have on the fence on this subject since creatine will increase water retention.

Gene I like your stack. Do you know about how many mg (or other measure) those scoops are as I'm going to try for my workouts? Thanks

I'd have to check the packaging but most have the same amounts.

I get all my supplements from Vitamin Shoppe and like their Body Tech products very much.
