Creatine 101: The daily health boost to help you stay strong while losing weight

When you’re on The Man Shake and working hard to lose a few kilos, one thing you don’t want is to feel like your strength has packed its bags and gone on holiday. 
Good news, mate, creatine is one of the easiest, safest, and most researched supplements you can add to your routine to help you stay strong while the weight comes off. 

And yep, you only need 5 grams a day. No loading. No complicated timing. Just scoop it in and get on with your day. 

Let’s break it down. 

What Is Creatine? 

Creatine is a natural compound your body already uses for quick energy. Think of it like your muscles’ “backup battery.” 

When you lift weights, go for a walk, or even haul the bins out after forgetting for the third week in a row, creatine helps your muscles fire properly so you don’t feel weak as water. 

Your body makes a bit of it, and you get some from food (mostly meat), but not enough to get the performance and strength benefits men get when they supplement it. 

Why Creatine Helps You Stay Strong While Losing Weight 

When you’re eating in a calorie deficit, your body sometimes gets a bit stingy with energy. That can make training feel tougher and muscle harder to maintain. 

This is where creatine shines. 

✔ Helps maintain muscle while the kilos come off  

✔ Gives you more “oomph” in your workouts 

✔ Helps with recovery 

✔ Supports men who are new to training 

✔ Backed by decades of research 

How Much Creatine Do You Need? (Hint: Not Much) 

You only need 5 grams a day, that’s it. 

Just throw one 5g scoop into your daily Man Shake and you’re sorted. 

Consistency Is King (Even More Than Motivation) 

Creatine works best when you take it daily, not just when you remember or when you’re “feeling healthy.” It’s like brushing your teeth, you don't really notice it instantly but skip it and things start to fall apart pretty quickly. 

Take your 5g every day, pair it with your Man Shake routine (it’s unflavoured!), keep moving, and let time do its thing.

Who’s Creatine For? 

• Pretty much every bloke wanting to: 
• Lose weight without losing muscle 
• Keep strength up while the calories come down 
• Feel more solid in their workouts 
• Stay consistent and see long-term results 

If that sounds like you, creatine is a no-brainer. 

The Bottom Line 

Your weight-loss journey shouldn’t leave you feeling weaker, flatter, or like you’re about to get knocked over by a stiff breeze. Creatine is an easy, affordable, and proven way to keep your strength, support your training, and stay steady while you’re dropping the kilos. 

The Man Shake now has its own Creatine, just 5g added to your daily shake is all you need. Give it a go and feel the difference. 

One scoop. Five grams. Once a day. Easy as.
