Started taking creatine, I have some quesitons

Hello, anyways to begin with I just bought myself PVL creatine monohydrate. I was just wondering, I heard its best in the start to load up on creatine for the first 4 days of workout (20g's a day), is this true?. If so how much water should I mix this amount with? or does that even matter?.

Another question is, After the loading period how many times should I take creatine a day? and when should I? (post, pre, before I go to sleep?). Also should creatine be taken on resting days also? and if so how much dosage.. t

Final question I had was, I am going to take creatine with Whey Protein Isolate. I was just wondering should I continue taking the protein the way I am now? or will adding creatine make me have to change it?


Thanks alot
 
All the questions in there have two opinions or more on them so Im not going to answer.

One thing I will say is that research suggests that taking creatine with some type of carbohydrate can increase its uptake and effeciency. I personally mix my creatine with apple or grape juice.
 
read the instructions.

I myself wouldnt have gone for MONO, but ester microized, but each to there own. you can take them together. as for water. read the instructions, its very very important how much you drink!! minimum would be two litres a day! minimum.
