Reply With QuoteYa, it's a good idea to stop taking creatine if you are looking to get really cut, bacause creatine causes you to retain water, resulting in a more smooth look.
As for thermogenics, If you are looking for an ECA stack, I recommend ripped fuel or hydroxycut.

keep taking it. it will cuase your muscles to look more full, becuase of intra-muscular water retention.
as for the ECA. i like Dymetadrine Xtreme.

Well, I could see you using creatine on a TKD diet, that is little to no carbs and high protein and moderate fat. It will help you get through your workouts. BUT, if you are eating alot of carbs then you should definately cut ou the creatine. The bros are right about its water retaining properties.

It does cause water retention, but I only notice intramuscular, not subcutaneous water retention...but that's just me. It probably effect everyone differently.

Creatine seems to only effect my mid section in retaining water.
