Hey guys, I just started my bodybuilding journey and have a question. Is it bad to take a creatine supplements while still losing body fat???If it is bad, then why?? Or should I wait til I am at my target weight to take creatine??? All input would be greatly appreciated.Thanks Nik.

If you are just starting out you don't need to use creatine.

I was just asking because I am taking some stuff called Xpand. It works awesome and lets me do more reps with less fatigue, but I was wondering if the creatine in it would affect me trying to lose body fat???So would it be harder for me to lose body fat with creatine???

No, creatine will have no effect on bf % loss, but it can cause you to retain water, which may cause you to be bloated.

I'm using CEE and I'm near done my cutting phase. It's going well.

It really depends on the kind you use and its delivery system (aka the amount of sugar thats in the creatine). Obviously the more sugar the more water retention your gonna get. Use a pill form like CEE or kre-alkalyn.
