For those of you that take a creatine supplement, do you take it before or after you work out? I've tried both and didn't know if it made a difference. When I take it before I lift, my muscles feel more swollen during the workout. Is that normal? Thanks in advance.

You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.
She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.
Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.
Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

My recent reading has suggeted that anything other than monohydrate is about as useful as cow s***. Which sucks, because a few weeks before I bought some ethyl ester, luckily a small amount.

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"
You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.
Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.
Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.
Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

GO with cereatine mono hydrate.
The Ethyl Ester is proclaimed to "absorb better into your muscles than MH" but honestly, you wont notice a difference.
I have never heard about the Hydrochloride but you gotta take GNC with a grain of salt- It is of course the GENERAL nutrition center. Some of the stuff there won't help.
Myself I wouldnt go with creatine at all, as no studies have been done on it, but to each his own. It makes an undenyable difference but I have never felt the need to use it in my training.

There are plenty of studies proving creatine's efficacy. I don't know why you wouldn't use it if you admit you know it makes a difference; it's cheap as hell if you buy in bulk.LostAndConfused said:Myself I wouldnt go with creatine at all, as no studies have been done on it, but to each his own.

It's a cell volumizer, so I'd take the bulk of the serving before...
If you're aiming for 2 scoops per workout day, then throw 1.5 scoops pre-workout, and 0.5 post workout.
