Bonus Q&A - More Protein vs. More Carbs, Is Creatine Worth It for Muscle?

Wits & Weights | Smart Science to Build Muscle and Lose Fat

We're answering 2 questions from the Wits & Weights Facebook group:

1. Should I lower my protein to get more carbs (or vice versa), especially during a muscle-building phase?
2. Does creatine really make much of a difference for performance and muscle growth if you're at least 80% dialed in with everything else?
