Thread: I need Creatine help Fast

He will delete this thread and move the other one. Just wait

Dude... Listen VERY closely.

DONT do a loading phase.
DONT cycle it.
Start at 10g a day(2 heaping tsp). Take one upon waking up, and one post workout. The best thing to mix with creatine is dextrose. But since you probably dont have any, use Welches Concord grape juice(purple). Also DONT pre mix the creatine, it is unstable in liquid form. Another good transport, is ALA. The ALA from HERE has dextrose added.(bulknutritions brand).

L0l wow im getting such a mixed reaction

What do you mean mixed reaction

some people said that loading fase is important some people are saying no loading fase, some say cycle it some say dont :S

What I told you is what you should do. Do you want reasons?

hmmm , 1st ive heard to take it with grape juice but when i take it should I just put like the creatine on my toungue and then take it with grape juice or wut :S.....also yea id like to hear why I shouldnt load and stuff...im looking for best results

Ok, here are the reasons.
Dont load, why? Because there is NO benefit to loading. It is a ploy so that YOU will use the creatine faster, and have to buy more. You will be pissing away your money.

Dont cycle, why? Creatine is NOT harmful. It can be used for as long as you want with nill negative effects. This is a safe supplement NOT a steroid

Does that clear things up, or do you need anothe Q answered?

EDIT, no you mix it with the grape juice. It just destabilazises over time in liquid. Not over a few minutes while your drinking it.

I told him to load. You got a problem with that ?

Alrite, on my Creatine box it says i shoulnt stir it or shake it in the grape juice or w.e, so i should just put it in and drink it....right?

No problem. Its just a waste of money thats all.

No, if its pure monohydrate, it will probably sink to the bottom of the cup/shaker. You will need to shake it to get it mixed up while drinking.

http://www.bulknutrition.com/?products_id=75 ....doesnt sink to the bottom

Have you mixed it yet? I promise it will... It is gritty like sand, and doesnt mix

no i havent taken it yet, thats why im getting all the info today, b4 i start it......in the end from all the mixed reactions i got :S i think i might load, i know Premier you probably know a lot but you are the only person ive heard from not to load so im gunna compromise, im gunna load 20g for the 1st 5 days, than im gunna take 5g in the mourning and 5g post workout, for the rest withought cycling......Does that sound alrite?

oh i think i gave u the wrong link though my Creatine is micronized :S sooo

Do what you want man. If you search this board though, this question has been asked before. Most of the people will say not to load. The fact is your body wont be able to absorb all that creatine that you will be taking in. 20g is a lot. So basically you will be pissing it away.

Load, creatine is so cheap anyway.

lol mine was liek 45$ after tax Canadian for 600g of Optimum Micronized Creatine....so its not that cheap here, but its Canadian and there is not too many places that sell it here, so if i were to order it on the web ya its cheaper but after shipping and everything its the same hting

Read some of theese threads. Loading is not necissary. There is also a lot of important info in them.

I heard that in america one kilo of monohydrate was very cheap. Like maltodextrin.

GoPro said that he believes in loading. He saw many benefits of it with the guys he trains.

Yea, creatine is pretty cheap here. But this kid doesnt live in the USA. Plus I dont want to spend my money if I dont have to. Especially on a product that got used faster than it should have, because of loading it

Pfft.. thats heresay. Gopro also endorses products, thats why he wants YOU to use them up faster

Alright it's my turn to be confused. I have always avoided Creatine because I heard those with kidney or liver problems must not take it. Hearing that I implied it might harm those organs. Any comments on this?

Creatine doesn´t harm your organs. I nerver heard of it.

Im not a MD. So dont take this advice to heart, but they are prob right. If you have a pre-exhisting condition maybe it should be avoided. But creatine is NOT harmful. The only thing that you need to do is increase water uptake. Sure there is going to be more creatine being processed in your kidneys, will this harm a normal person? NO. But someone with a condition, it might put an un-necissary strain on the allready weak organ.

But again im not an MD so I really cant say.
