the sales department invented 'loading'

 

[satchboogie]

so how would you do it then?

 

[greenday]

I never load creatine, on days I workout, I take 5 grams pre workout, and 5 grams post workout. On my off days I take just 5 grams.

Also loading isn't 10 grams, its 20 to 25 grams per day, and IMO its total BS, they just want you to buy more creatine. I take creatine for 3 weeks, take one week off, take for another 3 weeks, take a week off, and so on. Your body can only absorb 5 grams at a time, the rest is pissed out.

karma your way dude but a few questions...

what kinda results do you most noticeably see?
water bloat, strength gains?

also, how long before results appear?

What i was told is to load up with creatine 15-20g a day for 5 days (no working out those days), then for maintanance take 5-10g a day, depending on your goals. I took 5g daily while bulking and it helped a lot. Great strength boost after loading too.
