The powerstore.com advocated staying at a high dose, 20-30g, for the duration of its use. They believed they had less strength with a dose of 5-10g. I read this a number of years back, so they could have changed their opinion. A member here told me that your body can't absorb more than 5-10g a day. Anyone else have an opinion?

From what I remember reading at GNC when I worked there, your muscles can only absorb so much creatine everyday. This is why you would do a loading phase, then a maintnace dose thereon. I would say maybe kick it back up to the loading amount for a few days, maybe once a month for a week, to resaturate the muscles.
