Hey i was just wondering what the best methods of cycling creatine was. i heard different reviews on the topic; Some said a month on a month off or 3 months on 1 month off, others said never really took a break. what do you guys think?
Look around, you don't need to cycle creatine like its a steriod. Just take 5g pure monohydrate a day, no need for loading, it'll just waste your money away.
I've found that cycling creatine is just a waste of money. I'm sure that there are some that like to do it, and may have seen great gains from doing so, but I just 10g on training days and 5g on off days. It's worked for me.

That doesn't make sense, cycling actually saves you money because you would take some off of it. If you take it all of the time (like 10 grams on training days and 5 grams on off days all of the time), or even just 5 grams everyday, if you take a month off...you wouldn't be using it that month and you'd save the money that would usually go to the 5 grams (or more).
No cycling in a year: 12 months on would be creatine everyday...
Cycling in a year: approximately 8-9 months on, 3-4 months off (depending on how often you cycle)...so that's 3-4 months out of the year that you aren't paying for it.
