    Questions about creatine

    ok i am getting a good diet (i take a multivitamin everyday along with whey protein and a balanced diet) and doing alot of training (5 hard days with 2 resting/light days) but my one question is should i take creatine everyday or just when i train the hardest. Would i be wasting it if i didnt do alot of training that day or would it help me to keep drinking it everyday even if i was resting that day?

    Most people take 5g / day to keep as much as possible in your muscles... and it's not too expensive, so why not take it every day for maintenance?

    There's no need to load or anything like that. Take 5-10g every day.

    If you are 40% body fat, perhaps you should reevaluate your diet.

    Just take 5g / day and don't worry about the "loading phase"

    In my experiance with creatine I really liked it until your body gets use to it then you just have to take more and more and more. Plus I don't think it really helped a whole lot.... Didn't know you could have negative reputation until I read this post.

    And yeah, 5g daily does a body good.
    Wondering where to start? Confused? "Homework 1" will get you started.

    Think you're ready for the "next step"? Take this test.
