I assume are referring to squats raising testosterone
All compound exercises will raise your T because of the pressure it puts on your central nervous system....
-squats
-lunges
-military press
-deadlift
-back rows
-close & regular grip bench press
so many benefits from da increase of T
-sex drive (da yams will be thankful)
-bone formation/density
-raises energy levels
-better moods
-overall strength.
your body will thank you

Yes it does as well as a place for me to place the bar slightly off the ground so I can load my plates on with out having to lift up the bar with one hand and load with the other
Asking someone to lift somewhere else so I can do my lifts wouldn't fly in my gym I dnt about yours

No way would I ask someone to move out of their power rack/squat rack/whatever rack.
Proper gym etiquette, even if they are slightly in the wrong is if someone has an area, that area is all theirs until they are done. Unless of course its something like cables or something where you can work in if they are cool with it. But racks and whatnot? Just wait.

2 questions
What do you guys take your creatine with?
I heard you should take it with apple or grape juice, helps spikes your insulin
Do you guys take it before or after your workout?
Thanks

I put it in my shake, or take it by itself and chase it with water.

i always mixed with water when using it.
stomach's are highly acidic already without the apple/grape juice
it shouldn't make a difference either way

I wouldn't go and straight out ask the guys to move out the power rack, I'd just ask them if i could work in my squats if it's the only power rack/squat rack in the gym. But I mean, something ought to be said to folk who go and curl in the squat rack.

I just wait and go to my next routine/ do something else that works that bodypart because I dont want anyone disrupting me when I do my workout
even though It gets so much hate everywhere on the itnernet I`m thinking about adding leg extensions, I see pros do it and I need to do more than LEg press (dont do squats anymore after tweaking my back and dont plan on doing them again till I join a gym with a rack and not a smith machine)

you gym doesn't have a squat rack?! YOU WOT M8?
I would personally clean the weight and start front squating rather than using a smith machine.

i have never experienced this increase in bench strength after squatting. i start many of my workouts with a big compound movement and i do the occasional strength day with squats, bench then deads. on days i attempt to go up in weight on bench, i do my usual warm-up starting with rotator cuff and then do a little bit of light benching then get right to it. i've been to powerlifting meets and never once did i see them warming up for bench press by doing squats.

Using a platform (presumably with bumper plates) for olympic lifts is a completely legitimate use. I'm not sure what you're objecting to in the first place.
Aside from asking them how much longer they're going to use the platform for, there's not much you can do. I'm assuming your deadlift weight is significantly higher than their power clean weight, such that working in would be counter productive.
And yes, if someone was deadlifting in squat cage or rowing in a squat cage or something along those lines and I needed to squat, I would politely suggest they do it elsewhere. 9 times out of 10 people oblige. Perhaps your gym is a lot more hardcore than the university gyms I'm used to.
I just throw the tablespoon in with some protein in a shaker and take it with that for convenience. Timing of it doesn't matter in the grand scheme of things. The fruit juice thing is widely thrown around, but I think the marginal benefits of taking creatine with fruit juice versus taking it straight up with water or with protein are minimal.
