stomach cramps

[DUMBELLrugger]

I have been taking creatine for about 3 weeks now, and i have been experiencing some stomach cramps. This is my first time on, and I was just wondering if this was normal? I am also feeling some stiffness in my neck and shoulders! Any comments?

When taking creatine, drink plenty of water

You could also drink a poweraid or something like that with your creatine, that helps with the cramping usually. The most important thing is water intake though as anthrax said. You want to be shooting for a gallon a day.

Only time i've experienced cramping was when I didn't drink enough water or loaded too much creatine.
