There is always a temptation for people to believe that dietary supplementation (such as Creatine, Amino Acids, extra Protein) makes a difference to performance. While a well-balanced diet is always important in athletic performance, it is a wrong mindset to think about supplementation rather than than the content of your training. There are also concerns about the consumption of Creatine.
