timing of creatine

[cozmokramer]

two scenarios...

if I work out first thing in the morning... when should I take creatine?

if I work out in the evening... then what would be the best time to take my creatine?

 

[riskybizz007]

bro take it right when you wake up, then again in your postworkout shake. I've always done better taking it twice a day versus 1 dose for maintenance.
At night same scenario, take before a workout and w/ post shake.

 

[cozmokramer]

how much should be taken each time...?

someone suggested 5 grams a day... so that should be broken up into 2.5 grams twice a day

A dose in the morning
A dose post-workout works best, preferably 15min apart from the shake.

To get the most out of creatine.
Load with 5g 3x/day (15g) - 10days, followed by 5g 2x/day (10g) as maintinence for the rest of the cycle.
