    difference in water retention - creatine and aas?

    im on week 10 of my 1st test cycle, was advised to just run creatine throughout, but have only just bothered to get some, which il run throughout pct aswell, whats the difference between the water retention you get from testosterone and from creatine?

    Aromatization causes Subcutaneous water retention.


    Creatine induces intramuscular water retention. Intramuscular water is a good thing. (unless youre prepping for a contest)

    aas causes intramuscular and sub Q. Im pretty sure the water from creatine is mostly intra. Delivery may play a role as well (timing, carbs, etc)
