When I took creatine for the first time, when I was 18, I did the loading phase. My strength and size increased substantially during the 2-3 months I was on it. Since then, though, I have not seen significant gains using creatine.

i responded well to creatine gaining well but mostly just water retention but for me a football player that is ok. Part of the gains might have been aplacebo affect
According to a post by BigD the best way to take creatine is to load for 1 week next 3 weeks maintain and 5th week load again take 2 weeks off and start up again i belive this may be true becuase i notice if you stay on for a while you hit a wall and if you cylce lik e that you can see continous gains

Its good for water weight and getting water to the muscle to improve pump. To me, it seems superficial as it is just mostly water but strength and size is good for the price and time it takes to drink it. Not bad for off cycle period.

I tried creatine for about 6 weeks, seems like just hype to me :/
Did gain a little size while on it, but after I quit using it I ended up being smaller than I was before I started using it. My back was the only part of my body any stronger on creatine, my legs were weaker. I quit the stuff cuz i kept pulling my right pec while on it.

Whats up brothers its been awhile sense Ive been back to this thread .I can tell you this it has helped me a lot.I do belive that its alot of water but thats ok with me .I know if anything it has helped me recover faster and it puts about 1/4inch to the arms .I have found that it works best takin with a high carb drink right before and after the workout .Before I lift I will take in 43gr of protien then 5 gr of fruit punch creatine 38gr carb ,then right after I will do it again ..The only negitve thing I found is sometimes my kidneys feel pressure and Ill have to piss alot other than that its been great ......CDOG

i've had an amazing creatine experience.. at the begining of last year, on a 2 month cycle my bench shot up from 185 to 225, off cycle resting off at 215. Weight from 150 to 165, resting at 155. kind of a lot of water, but the muscle gain was definitely there, and the strength definitely stayed.
