liquid creatine would be alright whilst cutting i think
Because it doesnt give you water retention, will just boost energy levels.
Personally i havnt used creatine to cut before, but someone here might of.

Its not meant to be used for bulking.
Powdered creatine is meant for bulking
Liquid creatine is what alot of females use and people who are trying to keep their body fat at around the same level.

Why is this? What is the difference? And why would creatine increase body fat levels if used in powder form? Why do females use it more often? Why is powder creatine made for bulking, and were did you read this from?Originally posted by *ShaGGs*

Liquid creatine just gives you extra energy, without the added water retention (Yet i think the majority of us want the water retention lol).
Females use liquid creatine more often because they dont want the puffy look, they just use it for energy whilst in the gym.

Well I thought most of the water rentention was in the muscle, since 99 percent of creatine is found in the muscle. Also being in a superhydrated state is a postive thing, not somthing you want to avoid. So yes I am confused like you are here. Can you maybe lead me to were you got this info from? ThanxOriginally posted by *ShaGGs*

Creatine will not affect how much body fat you loose.

Yea, bump on that. There have been studies posted on this site that state the actual creatine in the liquid was only 10% of its stated value. Creatine is unstable in water. if left in there for a long time it starts to convert to creatinine, which is useless to the body.Originally posted by ah_boi
haha ... read more about liquid creatine ... they are not stable in liquid ...The desire to attain "perfection" is a mental poison. Perfection is a fictitious concept, there is only improvement. Therein lies the challenge, therein lies the fun.

Creatine in liquid WILL BREAK DOWN into creatinine, as several other guys have mentioned. As far as powder creatine giving you a 'puffy' look, uh wtf? Creatine cause intracellular water retention and has no effect on subcutaneous water retention. Subcutaneous water retention will make you look 'puffy' while intracellular will just make your muscles look bigger, this is the reason many bb'ers carb load before contest. Liquid creatine for energy? That's just a placebo effect as creatinine has no effect of the cells stores of ATP. Creatine has no effect on bodyfat loss either, that's just diet and cardio.Originally posted by *ShaGGs*

I dont take liquid creatine, and i know it breaks down whilst in liquid. Hence the small bottles it comes in.Originally posted by Novotny

And "puffy look"...........ahhhh bro WTF lol. Creatine DOES give you a puffy look. And water retention from creatine gets stored in muscle causing them look larger than they are. Hence the puffy look.
