k, thxs

I'd stick with water, friend.

[milo]

It doesnt have a taste, toss it in a small amount of water and just take it in a gulp.. then drink some more after.

[The_One77]

so, i just stick to one bottle per day right?
or let's say, drink abit in the morning, then in the afternoon and after your workout...
Or do you just drink it all at once?

[The_One77]

and should i mix it with cold water or warm water?

[Goodbyeboy]

if you're eating Creatine Monohydrate, mix with some sort of carb like juice or milk because creatine monohydrate is best absorbed with carbs.

If you're taking CEE, then stick with water.

[The_One77]

Yeah, i have creatine monohydrate
oh, i dont have to eat it do i?

k, thxs....ill mix it with milk

[littlefry]

lol if i was you i would jsut mix it wit water but do what you want to do

[Goodbyeboy]

No problem. and if you have a chance try CEE as well and see which one you like. Personally I have never used Creatine Monohydrate before, so I can't say which one works better. but you should definitely try CEE! Good luck!

[The_One77]

yeah.....maybe ill just stick to water lol....Im not sure

if anyone could please answer this question i would be grateful...
When using creatine, should i drink it all at once....or split it 3 times a day?
And how big should the drink be, just the size of a normal supplement carlton?

Week 1:

Creatine: 5g post-workout, 2g before bed.
Glutamine: 7g pre-workout, 7g post-workout, 8g before bed.

Week 2:

Creatine: 11g post-workout, 3g before bed.
Glutamine: 7g pre-workout, 7g post-workout, 8g before bed.

Week 3:

Creatine: 16g post-workout, 5g before bed.
Glutamine: 7g pre-workout, 7g post-workout, 8g before bed.

Week 4:

Creatine: 5g post-workout, 2g before bed.
Glutamine: 7g pre-workout, 7g post-workout, 8g before bed.

Week 5:

All supplementation ceases (cycle is complete).
================================================== =======
The common method of supplementing creatine is to ingest 20 grams in five-gram servings for up to a week followed by 5-10 grams per day after that for another 4 to 6 weeks (as long as you keep growing or getting stronger). Then take at least a month to a month and a half off before repeating the cycle so that the creatine receptors remain effective.

It also appears that mixing creatine powder into a protein drink and taking in some carbohydrates 20-30 minutes later maximizes the intake into the muscles. Since creatine breaks down in liquids, you should only buy the powdered form and you should not let your creatine shake sit very long before ingesting it.

So just mix with some kind of carb. and like I said if you get a chance try CEE.

Not to be an ass, but if you've done the research that you say you've done then you woulnd't have to ask this question.

[The_One77]

well, ive done abit of research but its all new to me really....so i could tend to forget, anyway i couldn't find certain answers from the internet so i thought i'd ask here.
Great responses so far

[JoshTheguns]

i personally take a spoon of creatine stick it in my mouth and then wash it down with water.

[loudenator]

Heres a question, why would you want to mix it with milk anyway???
*barf*

probably because he doesn't know mono creatine doesn't have any taste and he might be scared of it tasting like ass

[The_One77]

well, thxs guys for the advice....much appreciated
almost throw up over the stuff when the powder wasn't fully dissolved, ill try milk next time lol

[bryanbailey06]

Water for me.

[MarkA15]

how about milk + protein + creatine mono?

[The_One77]

i dont have protein powder

[Home_Slice]

If you're loading then just use water. If it's a "normal" week, mix it with water before workout (5g) and with gatorade powder post workout (5g).

[FredPBull]

You got need to some protein powder. Don't mix it with milk please. If you can't stomach the unflavored then get some flavored creatine.
