How long before my contest should I stop taking creatine? I read or heard somewhere that you shouldn't take creatine before a contest because of the bloating effect.

I stopped my creatine intake around 6 weeks. Yes it makes you retain water. For example at 7weeks I had my bf% done it was 17% Stopped the creatine in week 6 and retested at 12%
Hope that helps ya.

I heard of this new product of creatine called "Purple K", they say that it is absorded quicker and does not cause any water retention....so I switched over about 1 month ago and they were right...absolutely no water retention what so ever....
I'm not sure if its sold in the states or not but I purchused it at Popeye's supplements...
