well creatine is a powder

fills your muscles with water

@Psychedelic Corpse Fucker Ah, truth be told man I’ve got one of the $30-on-Amazon protein mixes and that’s pretty much all I use.

Tried creatine when I used to box and always felt sluggish, but some of the other guys got amped as fuck on it. Give it a shot for a couple months, if you’re thinking about it.

I am. But I like to stay as natural as possible, i.e turkey, mixed nuts, etc.

Yeah I stay natty as well

Just roids for me

None of that protein

Yeah, that’s why I went with one of the basic bitch, no additive protein mixes.

And even then it’s just what I use to round out macros if I’m coming up shy for the day. Maybe 2 or 3 glasses a week?

If I have to hear royalty free music one more time, I'm going to lose my fucking mind.

@Whats gay anymore Natty like the lifting YouTubers, eh?

Ah, alright. I'll probably gauge my options in the morning.

Thanks.

Yeah, sleep on it, man. Have a good night.

✌

@[chase dreams] Like the Gymnopedie stuff?

Funny

Wasn’t trying to be, was asking a question.

Royalty free meaning it can be used without risk of copyright.

I know, but was that a blanket statement or more specific to the hyper-common ones, like Gymnopedie?

I'm referring to stuff like Kevin Macleod

Oh, yeah, fuck that shit. I specifically filter his stuff out when I look through the YouTube audio library for my vids.

Honestly, you could probably get away with using it if a video is unmonetized.

copyrighted music I mean

True, but most of the good background loop sort of music is already open license because that’s what it was made for.

yeah.

Just a matter of not picking the top-downloaded shit.

But I hear Kevin MacLeod's music fucking everywhere.

Have you looked at the YouTube audio library?

once or twice

I just ask because it’s a surprisingly large list of songs; people picking Kevin’s shit have to skip libraries of better beats to get to it.

I don’t blame the guy for his popularity, mind, but... damn, there’s other people out there.

I'd likely just use a hip hop instumental beat, since I consider it the best kind of background music

Yeah

His music isn't even bad

it's just that I practically have all his songs on loop in my head.

because I've heard them so much

I know what you mean; I’m a fan of the lo-fi blues and R&B loops, though I’ve been digging into some of the EDM stuff for my next vid and it ain’t bad at all.

Yeah, I've also fallen in love with this one Biggie instrumental

But especially if I’ve gotta keep hearing it while I edit, I’ll do anything to avoid hearing something that’s already everywhere else.
