    wondering if i should get off the creatine...wat u think

    I'm not tryin to cut up per say...but i think the creatine (swole) makes me look more thick than cut...i dont want to lose any weight really and im scared that if i get off the swole i will? Should I stick with the swole? Would just creatine monohydrate maybe be better? Or how about Sans V12? Kinda messed up...dont want to look so thick, but dont wanna lose weight? ahhh someone help

    Sometimes you just feel tired, u feel weak
    And when you feel weak, you feel like you wanna just give up
    But you gotta search within you, try to find that inner strength
    and just pull that shit out of you
    And get that motivation to not give up, and not be a quitter
    No matter how bad you wanna just fall flat on your face, and collapse..

    Yes, creatine makes you look thick. A lot of water retention. You want to show off what's underneath, what you gained while on the shiat, if you're cutting.

    You will notice a decrease in the artificaly inflated (water bloated) size, but you'll be able to see the foundation and definition your built on the Cre/Swole much better.

    If you do it right, you shouldn't lose any strength or lean mass.

    Try both. Try using less creatine, maybe 5 grams a day no loading. If that doesnt work, go off of it for about 2 weeks. The only way to truly find out what the culprit is is trial and error.
