Why dont many use creatine while 'on' ?

It seems a lot of people don't bother using creatine while using anabolics. Why is this? Any science or reason behind it?

I tried it once years before i ever juiced and it did absolutly nothing for me . So i never bothered trying it again .

well I know I am possibly going to drop a few lbs whan I am off cycle...

So if I creatine up it often balances out the loss, and I dont look like a yo-yo dieter...

I think creatine is a great supplement, but the gains you get from it are overshadowed by the creatine.

Personally, it makes me look and feel too bloated.

Creatine is a great supp when your not juicing. Just whouldn't want to increase the potiental water weight and bloating while your using gear. Cycle it after your PCT...

because we spend all of our money on gear.....i dont run it because of add'd water weight, plus i dont need creatine's help in recovery time, and i have digestive problems when on cycle(sometimes), creatine doesnt mix well with me....

Food(protein) is vastly more important than creatine. In the past have spent more on food and protein than I do on vitamins and super supps.

a lot of people love to run creatine with anavar.

Yeah, like stated above, it will hold alot of water weight(if you drink alot of water, like you should) If I had the money to run a good stack, I wouldnt spent more on creatine.

Right on Bro. I would rather eat very well than buy supps. My $$$ only goes so far and whole food is where it goes first.

You produce more creatine than you'd take in using a supplement when you multiply the Test in your body by 10... The difference in adding another 20g /day (from experiance) is zero

i use creatine while on. im on right now and besides my roids i do insulin 4 weeks on then 4 weeks off. after i work out i take 10ius then drink my protein/carb drink and my creatine. if im not using slin then i usually wont bother with the creatine.

I might run that Creatine Ethyl Ester next cycle. I hear it gives you no bloat.

Creatine helps me a lot during cycle. I dont get the bloat from it, but it definately helps me.

Depends what I am cycling, but I like to keep it in there most of the time.

I also like to throw in glutamine post-workout. I take pride in intense workouts and feel like it helps keep me as intense as possible throughout the cycle.

I do muscle milk before leaving the gym and it has a full dosing of creatine in it. I dont see a reason not to do creatine. It CAN produce bloating of the intestines which can make you look like you got roid gut or too much growth hormone but while this happens, actually steroids can gobble up creatine and USE it in the muscles better then not on steroids so reality is, more creatine will move out of the intestines and into muscle when on roids then not. I dont believe you get any type of water bloating of fat or skin cells when on creatine so its mostly the intestines and muscles that are swelling. Creatine also assists in increasing the nitrogen, you get incredible pumps when creatined and AAS'd at the same time, it also makes more arginine available since creatine is made from arginine.

I have a friend who ran " Creatine Ethyl Ester " and he had no bloat, plus he said it was cheap.

keep the supps till after a cycle to help keep if not gain more gains.

Supplements will only do so much for you, during a cycle or not. If you're getting what you want out of your gear, then you can either put the supps aside for the 12 weeks or so, or decide to keep using them. They don't have a big effect either way. Doing the creatine should be fine. Never heard otherwise.
