Creatine Question
« on: May 19, 2009, 03:20:17 PM »
Once your muscles are fully saturated after the "loading phase", how many extra pounds of water does creatine make you hold?

i think it's like 3-5lbs

I'm wondering because i'm using creatine monohydrate while i diet and wonder how much lighter i would be if i wasn't currently using creatine.

Agreed i never had much retention, but my brother on the other hand will drop 10-15 pounds in 2 weeks once he stops using it due to water weight so you never know.

I loaded up on 50 grams of creatine for 5 days and gained over 30lbs of water in 2 weeks.

I looked like a blowfish and passed out during a heavy squat session.

I was rushed to the hospital where they completely flushed out my system.

They removed over 8 gallons of water that had completlely saturated my body
