creatine

[danny1]

nah there is no need to load again just make sure u dont keep skipping weeks...you just want to load the first week, and it says the days that you dont workout just use it when you wake up....also after you use it drink a glass of water right away because it helps absorb it better. You will pee a lot but it's worth it....

 

[malkore]

And there's no need to load in the first place either.

 

[danny1]

alright man thats your opinion

 

[malkore]

nope, its scientifically proven. a daily dose will get your muscles saturated in three weeks.

wats the difference between senior member and registered user?

 

[BRAHMA]

Senior Member - knows there stuff, very educated on matters, been there, tried that, done that, doing this, and should never be doubted.

Registered User - still learning, can give decent-good advice, and should take in info and not reject it as opinions.

Malkore has it down to the peak. Keep reading labels and you'll find yourself blowing away money.

 

[danny1]

alright cool how do u become a senior user or do u have to wait a certain amount of time

 

[malkore]

it just takes time. total number of posts matters, as does length of time as a member.

here's a couple articles on creatine for you Danny. I don't want you thinking I just spout off without anything to backup what I am saying.

I have never heard anything saying that your body ever adapts to creatine diminishing it's strength. I would be interested in reading some literature if anyone has any.. But as far as I know.. no.

Are you serious?

Have you even read the responses????
You seem like the type of person who will continue to ask the same question until you get the answer you want. READ the responses you were given man, come on.

ic.. see i dont work out everyday if i only take creatine when i work out is that alright?

5 grams per day once your muscles are fully saturated for proper maintenance I believe.

5 grams per day once your muscles are fully saturated for proper maintenance I believe.

I would go with 5 per day on workouts days and 3 on non workout days.

 

[niceone]

Righto.. I suppose it depends on size too. If you are small, it probably takes less time to saturate all your muscles and it probably takes less to maintain high levels as well. 3 is likely enough for 'off' days.

 

[malkore]

some research I've seen over at tnation.com showed that most men under 200lbs only need 3g a day to hit and maintain saturation. over 200lbs, go with 5g.

sicne its cheap, I still just tell people 5g a day, no more than that is necessary.

 

[jay99]

i have not taken it for liek 4 days now.. if i start on monday can i just start with the loading cycle?

 

[niceone]

It takes a lot longer than 4 days for your muscle to desaturate. I wouldn't worry about loading at this point.
