Barney, you wont lose anything, dont even think that way. I utilize creatine 3 months out of a year, it helps when I get on, I make gains whether it more reps or an increase in strength and when I come off the gains remain the same, you will be OK just dont start thinking that your going to crash, that is already a step in the wrong direction. ------------------ "I'm reaching a height which you said cannot be, I'm bringing the light which you said you can't see" | ||

havoc what about the water weight you put on. do you lose that but you are still able to keep the strength gains from the creatine? i have never bothered to try it...i've always heard it just makes you gain water and you get stronger but when you come off of it, everything goes away. basically a temporary gain. | ||

BARNEY, YES YOU WILL... BUT ITS NOT A "CRASH" YOU WILL LOSE SOME SIZE, BUT ITS WATER. CREATINE PULLS WATER INTO THE MUSCLE, MAKING YOU FULLER, AND HELPING WITH STRENGTH ETC.. BASICALLY, THINK OF IT THIS WAY, AFTER YOUR DONE PISSING THE STUFF OUT YOU WILL STILL BE BIGGER THEN YOU WERE BEFORE YOU STARTED THE STUFF. NOT TO WORRY, YOU WONT LOSE TOO MUCH STRENGTH AND YOUR ONLY GOING TO BE OFF THE CREATINE FOR A MONTH OR TWO AT A TIME... NO BIG DEAL... HAVOCS RIGHT ABOUT YOUR THOUGHT PROCESS.... DONT LET IT GET TO YOU. ITS NOT A BIG DEAL AND NOBODY WILL NOTICE. | ||

I agree with the madbomber in regards to water weight but I have never lost any strength whatsoever, anything I gain as far as strength is concerned I keep. When I come off I also work harder though or at least I think I do so I dont crash in any way. ------------------ "I'm reaching a height which you said cannot be, I'm bringing the light which you said you can't see" | ||

thanks for the advice guys, i WILL KEEP MY GAINS, this is my first time on creatine and it seems to be doing me good. im still a virgin to the juice and will remain that way until i come to a stale point but at the moment eating heaps and now creatine seems to keep me growing naturally, i stiil have a long way to go as i am 6'1, i was the same height two years ago when i was a mere 64 kg but two years later im at 88 so im now where near big but feel successful from my personal gains, its kinda like golf, your playing against yourself. Havoc thats a nice pic too man, it does look like it might be converting to a hermaphrodite though, it looks like it has a yellow stamen coming up at the front...nooooooooooooooooo!!!! | ||

It will take about a month to slowly piss out most of the weight you gained (the water). And maybe it's just me, but the next time you use it, you won't gain the 10 pounds you did the first time around. Well, maybe I got some bunk shit. ------------------ | ||

CREATINE IS NOT RELATED TO HOLDING A WEIGHT GAIN PEOPLE!!!!!!!!!!ALL IT DOES IS RESTORE ATP IN MUSCLES WHICH THEROETICALLY CAUSES THEM NOT TO TIRE OUT AS FAST THUS PUSHING ONE MORE REP THUS INCREASING STRENGTH.ITS NOT A TAKE ME PRODUCT AND WATCH ME GET HUGE.ALSO WHY EVEN CYCLE OFF?CREATINE IS SOMETHING YOUR BODY CANNOT ADAPT TO.I TAKE IT YEAR ROUND.AS DO MOST PEOPLE I KNOW DO. ------------------ HEAVEN IS THE BACKSEAT OF MY CADILLAC.

I THINK YOU NEED TO READ MORE ON HOW CREATINE WORKS... IT DRAWS WATER INTO THE MUSCLE... SATURATES THE MUSCLE WITH WATER, WHY ELSE DO PEOPLE GAIN 10LBS IN 2 WEEKS? ITS NOT MUSCLE... | ||

OH AND FOR CYCLING OFF... YOUR WASTING YOUR CASH AFTER 3 MONTHS, YOUR MUSCLES CAN ONLY FILL SO MUCH, AFTER THAT YOUR NOT GETTING ANY BENEFIT WHATSOEVER OUT OF THE STUFF. SO YOU CYCLE OFF THEN BACK ON, IE DONT PISS OUT YOUR MONEY. | ||

IT DRAWS WATER INTO THE MUSCLE YES,BUT WHAT DOES THAT HAVE TO DO WITH ANYTHING.LIKE I SAID ITS NOT A TAKE ME PRODUCT AND GET HUGE.ITS ALSO AN INSIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF WATER TO DIRECTLY AFFECT STRENGTH. ------------------ HEAVEN IS THE BACKSEAT OF MY CADILLAC.

THE STEEL Beast....the amount of water can certainnly be significant....so going off you will usually easily notice a decrease in size.....but loss of stength would not occur, however anaerobic stamina could lessen as your creatine supplies depleat | ||

THE REASON WHY I USED HER IS THAT SHE SOLELY RELIES ON SUPPLEMENTS BECAUSE I FOR ONE CAN ASSURE YOU SHE IS 100 PERCENT NATURAL.SHE NEEDS THE EDGE ON COMPETITORS WHO JUICE,SO SHE TOOK IT AS HER PERSONAL LIBERTY TO RESEARCH ALL THE LEGAL SUPPLEMENTS OUT THERE.I DONT KNOW ANYONE MORE KNOWLEDGEABLE ON SUPPLEMENTS. ------------------ HEAVEN IS THE BACKSEAT OF MY CADILLAC.

WHO THE HELL SAID ANYTHING LIKE THAT? I USED TO BE HUGE AND STOPPED CREATINE... SHOW ME THAT QUOTE PLEASE. BOTTOM LINE IS CREATINE USE HAS A MAJOR EFFECT ON WATER IN THE MUSCLE... IT FILLS YOU OUT, AND INCREASES ATP. THOSE ARE ITS MAIN BENEFITS... CREATINE IS GREAT FOR A QUICK SIZE BOOST.. I CAN TAKE THE STUFF FOR 1 WEEK OF LOADING AND GAIN 10LBS... WITH THAT SAID, I DONT... BECAUSE AS YOU COME OFF CREATINE YOU WILL LOSE SOME STRENGTH DUE TO THE ATP EFFECT. YOU DIDNT THINK EVERYTHING YOU HAD GAINED WAS REAL TISSUE DID YOU? | ||
