I took 10 g yesterday (first day) and didn't have an initial water gain; my weight is the same as yesterday. How long does it take before I see a pump? If I don't have one already, does that mean I'm a nonresponder?

How long does it take for Creatine to "kick in?"

THINK about what you're saying.
If you take 10g of creatine and hop on the scale, do you think there's going to be a gain?
Where's the weight is going to come from? You just ate 10 grams of creatine, not 5 pounds of the stuff.
You need to DRINK LOTS OF WATER to have a water gain. Start drinking a ton of water, and your body will be absorbing more of it. In a few days, you should be weighing more.

bump, within one or two weeks. i first noticed it on my second week of using it on the bicep day, a huge pump, then after that my lifts got stronger everwhere, and kept getting stronger....Originally posted by kyle0k

Cool thanks. I didn't expect an immediate gain, but I thought perhaps overnight there would be water retention. I know if on one day I have lots of sodium or high carbs I do have a noticeable increase on the scale the next day, so I thought this might be similar. Guess not.
