take 2 teaspoons of creatine a day with fruit juice, or grape juice, or water. im not too sure but i think it takes about a day or so to leave your body, but that doesnt really matter, just follow what it says on the container and youll be fine. Take creatine everyday, i recommend, or about 6 weeks, then stop taking it for a week then go for it for another 6 weeks. remember to cycle it or it wont be as effective
It's not he who knows more that is the better lifter, it is he who puts into action what he knows.

creatine stays in your body all your life, its naturally in there, when you supplement you bring it to higher levels. take 5g a day everyday and dont wory about it so much.Originally posted by d12

nah man cuz thats what works best go read up on it bro trust me. if u keep taking creatine without having any off days then your body wont make much anymore cos it becoms depndant on the creatine your supplying from the supplement. Go read bout it bro, read as much as you can about it and learn.

1)5 grams is fine a day
2)no need to load
3)creatine is natural to ur body
4)cycling is the most accepted principle but there are some who say there is no need to cycle. it is personal choice!!!
peace

how much you take depends on your weight 15gs a day is for a pretty big person i think since im only a light weight 5gs is easily enough for meOriginally posted by hulkman

Creatine levels will be elevated for 24-48 hours after appropriate dosage.

People only adopted the "cycling" of creatine from anabolic steriods/PHs, whilst some say it is more effective.. In my opinion it doesn't realli matter but try both to see wat works betta for you

The amount you take is up to you. I'm 6' 210 so I prefer to take 10-15g on maintenence, so even if I piss most of it out, I know I'm at my max levels. It's cheap and safe, don't be afraid to use it generously.
Jhov said loading is not necessary, which is absolutely right, but my preference is to load, gets your body saturated much faster.Kill one man and you are a murderer. Kill a million and you are a conquerer. Kill them all and you are God
If you train hard, you'll not only be hard, you'll be hard to beat.
