Creatine

I usually just stick with the recommendations on the container. ============ Quoting from rambo78: Thanks. Does the same apply to protein as well. =============

The longer you let it sit, the less effective it becomes (the creatine converts to creatinine). http://www.gain-weight-muscle-fast.com/creatine-dosage.html -------------- Knock-Um Down & Keep-Um Down!
