Recipe for Building Maximum Muscle: Creatine Cycling

Creatine cycling, or creatine loading and maintenance, is a regimen that helps you with proper dosing levels of creatine for maximum benefit. Orthodox creatine users go through a load phase, followed by a maintenance phase:


*Creatine loading typically lasts for 5 days. During this loading phase you ingest multiple doses of creatine daily and at various intervals.


*During your creatine maintenance phase you consume 1 dose of creatine per day, usually within an hour before your workout (liquid formulas).


You can get even greater muscle size by carefully developing and testing your own personal program of interchangeable creatine forms (ie liquid, bars, chews, etc) and cycling between loading and maintenance regimens that work best for you. Each time you incorporate a slightly different creatine formula or form, you push muscle size and power to the limit.
