How many of you stay on Creatine through a show.

[Gunsmith]

Just wondering if anyone ever stays on Creatine through their whole prep??

Would it make a difference in getting as dry as without it or would it help keep muscles full??

Coach had me drop creatine 1-2 weeks out last show I did

Never drop it. Hard to tell if it keeps you fuller seeing at the end of prep you should be pretty Flat most of the time. Def doesn’t make you hold subq water though. Lose all the fat..don’t worry about holding water from anything really.

One of the more pervasive creatine myths in this industry, 'creatine makes you hold subcutaneous water!!!'. No it doesn't.

Another one being the different esthers, 'di-creatine malate', o rly?

5g Monohydrate daily.

Hey Gun, just to add to what I already said here...I know some coaches who load creatine the final week. Especially with naturals and bikini girls that need a bit more fullness. I haven’t ever loaded it or had anyone load it the last week but I just keep it consistent throughout.

^^ Pretty spot on. Dont change small variables at the end that could make a significant difference.

20g day till the day of the show

Keep it in and steady. Should only benefit you by keeping muscles fuller.
