Creatine loading

[pariskk1]

is the loading stage that the container recommends really necessary? if i was to just take 1 5g serving daily for one month on one off, and skip the loading will it be ok? also when would be the best time to take the serving for on/off days?

1) No need to load.
2) No need to take time off.

No need to load unless you want to do it.
On rest days just take it when it's the most convenient for you, e.g. in the morning.

You dose it every day and there is absolutely no reason to load creatine whatsoever

 

[stevesmi]

no because if you load it you can cause bloat

No need to load, and loading can actually cause constipation, etc. Once you start taking it, just use of every day.

I've seen it said and it's just down to a lack of logic.

creatine is daily.
don’t cycle it, don’t load it..
