“Consuming 2 g of creatine monohydrate per kilogram of body weight daily increased Paddy’s one‑rep max bench press by 8 kg after six weeks.”
Claim checked — not supportedHigh risksupplements
Evidence Summary
Available evidence does not support this claim.
Research shows typical creatine dosing (~0.03 g/kg) yields modest strength gains; a 2 g/kg daily dose is far above studied amounts and no credible evidence supports an 8 kg bench press increase in six weeks.
