Hi,
I would appreciate any advices on this matter :
In october 2008, I tried for 2 weeks the superaccumulation program which is designed for reaching overtraining states and then gain size and strength.
During this period, I was on a high calorie diet, high protein, high creatine and bcaa + MAG-10 legacy.
In december 2008, I ran blood tests and it showed up these abnormalities :
Higher Vitamin B12 : 788 pmol/L
Lower Hemoglobine : 133 g/L
Higher Creatinine : 122 umol/L
Higher Urea : 9.2 mmol/L
Higher CK (CPK) : 761 Ui/L
Does anyone know if these abnormalities might be related to the overtraining state I was in 2 months ago?
Thanks for help.
Correct me if i’m wrong, but don’t higher creatinine and higher CK levels come from the breakdown of protein. Wouldn’t these higher levels come with a high protein diet combined with intense weightlifting by default?
People who have higher levels of muscle mass and who “heavily use” their muscles have higher levels of CK and creatinine than the regular, sedentary population.
I had these higher levels last time I got a blood test. I just drank more water and it didn’t pop up next time I got a blood test.

That is true, but it will show up for any person who trains hard, not just people who “heavily use”. It will show altered liver values, also.

yeah, I just said “heavily use” because I was quoting directly from a medical website. I wonder what they consider “heavy use” ha.
Hey thanks for your input guys,
Does any one of you have a medical online reference for these facts? so that I can discuss this matter with my doc with some supported informations.
Thanks.
