errr it's suppose to be taken before the workout.
Doesn't matter when you take the creatine. If you take it before it'll give you the energy to make longer reps and give you more explosive power, if you take it after then it'll be easier for your body to absorb it and better for recovery. If you take it and don't work out, your body will just store it for future use, unless it's plateau-ed then it'll come out in your urine.QUOTE(kianweic @ Mar 7 2008, 11:48 AM)
How come I perspire significant more after taking creatine?
My training last night, I perspire as many as 2 t-shirts during my weight session once and my cardio session once as well. I mean like really wet those type.
Fortunately, I did drink like 1.5 litres of water during workout.
Creatine provides the necessary energy for your muscles to contract (like ATP). Naturally when your muscles work, it creates head, the body sweats to dissipate heat. One of the side effect of taking too much creatine (i.e. more than what the body needs) for a prolonged period makes your body intolerant of heat (a.k.a you will sweat a lot more). Not a good thing.My training last night, I perspire as many as 2 t-shirts during my weight session once and my cardio session once as well. I mean like really wet those type.
