I just got myself 600g of creatine today...im gunna start taking it tomorrow, but ive been getting mixed answers on how i should take it. Im about 165lb so im gunna take 25g a day for 5 days for loading than, how much should i take on maintenance fase, ive heard that i should take 5g bcs some of it doesnt even register than ive heard i should take 10g (5 b4 a workout and 5 after), which one should i do....Also ive been getting mixed answers on how i should cycle it. I heard 6 weeks on 3 weeks off, but my buddy said 3 weeks was a long time, and i should just do 4weeks on and 1 week off.....Also im gunna take it with cool-aid or grape juice i heard....PLz any advice would be great for me b4 i start taking it
At 165 pounds, 25g/day may be a bit much for loading. Load with 4 servings at 5g/day for 5 days. Then take 3-5g/day for maintainance, preferably after a workout. And you do NOT need to cycle it. Some people cycle it because they feel they get better results. Everyone is different. Studies have shown that continuous use for more than a year did not cause any harmful side effects. Just be sure to drink a LOT more water while on creatine.

When I saw that I thought that you were having an overdose of creatine. Your thread name sounds like an emergency.

If someone is overdosing with 600mg of creatine, I think they would be stupid enough to go post in the forums .. lol
I did 25g per one week and now just 5g post-workout with maltodextrin.
