SHOULD you Drink creatine before or after your workout?

Answer 1

Before and After...is the answer I have gotten from the majority of the trainers I have asked. I know that everyone has different opinions, but it makes sense to me. You want the creatine boost before your workout to give you an edge. And, after your workout, while your muscles are starved. I have always taken 1/2 the daily dose before, and the other 1/2 immediately after, and seen great results.

Answer 2

Taking a protein drink after a workout is good. After a workout the body muscles will be recovering from the workout and would require a lot of protein to grow and rebuild themselves. So if you supply them with protein after a workout they would recuperate and grow well.

Answer 3

Any one looking to gain lean muscle tissue can take creatine. It will help gain lean muscle and increase strength.

Answer 4

There are arguments for both. Especially if you don't feel bloated after taking it, it's best to split it up into two small doses both before and after.
