Do you cycle the type of creatine you take.. does that matter???

Personally I don’t feel like creatine needs to be cycled. The loading phase and all that is a ploy by supplement compnaies to buy more. If you remember creatine can also be found in a nice steak that you eat so you have been taking creatine your whole life when you think about it. I do beleive you can take too much of it and should only stick to a low dosage of 5-8 grams a day. I have never had to stop taking it or anything, my doases changed depending on the training but it’s one of those things that shouldn’t be overthought.

thanks srokus..
 
which brand do you take.. my husband just starting taking cellmass.. he loves it..
 
its creatine mixed with some other ingredent which gives you a nice pump during your workout

I just used plain creatine monohydrate. We get tested a lot in weightlifting so I can’t risk all these ingredients popping me on a test. I take bodystrong, nothing fancy but get’s the job done.

have you ever tested positive for a supplement you took and didnt say what ingredients were in it?
