Creatine before or after workout?
Hey folks,
Should I take creatine before or after a workout? If it's after a workout, then is it okay to take it with a protein shake? |

I take it before, and after workout. I usually take 5 grams with sunny d (I've got two kids, so it's usually in supply :D ) prior to lifting weights, and another 5 grams after with my protein shake. During my workout, I try to consume a large amount of water.

I thought that once you have creatine loaded in your system, then it didn't matter as far as timing, just as long as you continued to take it. I however do mix it in with my shakes for convenience.

I take it before, durring and after. With respect to timing once i've hit the gym hard your muscles will soak the creatine up just like it does glycogen.
0311, why do you take in so much man. thats an insane amount of creatine even for someone your size. I'm not telling you not to, but have you tried to do less? I've been told by several doctors that once your muscles are saturated, anything over 3gr ed is just getting pissed out. |
