Nick Walker Explains Why He Stopped Using Creatine After 2026 Mr. Olympia Win

Nick Walker, the 2026 Mr. Olympia winner, revealed he no longer uses creatine because he didn’t feel it benefited him and only made him feel 'watery.' In an October 8 video, he also stated he gained about 16 pounds shortly after the competition due to relaxed eating but quickly lost it by going zero-carb for three days. Walker emphasized the importance of carbohydrates for energy and metabolism and confirmed he consumes plenty of meat. Remarkably, he won bodybuilding’s top title without creatine. He is now preparing for the 2027 Arnold Classic, scheduled for March 4-7 in Columbus, Ohio.
