When it comes to dosing creatine, some people would like to implement dosing phases, known as a loading phase and maintenance phase.

The loading phase has you taking 20 grams of creatine for 5 days after which you proceed to the maintenance phase of 5 grams per day.

After the creatine loading phase (first week), you lower the amount of creatine use - this is the maintenance phase.

* Duration of a few weeks * An average dose more equivocal to a «loading» phase than a «maintenance phase» * A larger dose for potential responders who lack natural, dietary creatine * A smaller dose for potential non-responders with a significant amount of existing dietary creatine intake * A training protocol that emphasizes all phases of muscular energetics to take advantage of the ATP - CP, glycolytic, and oxidative effects of creatine supplementation (HIIT is ideal for cardiovascular exercise when supplementing creatine, due to the repeated bouts of high intensity work) * A training protocol that incorporates negatives in order to stimulate satellite cell fusion, as per Dr. Hatfield's theory of holistic training * A training protocol that emphasizes repeated bouts of work per the results of creatine studies * A nutrition protocol tailored to reduce post-workout cortisol levels, which would involve a post-workout shake and possible glutamine supplementation * A nutrition protocol that takes advantage of carb - load (super compensation) near the end of the cycle

Maintenance phase: Once you have completed the loading phase consume 1 serving per day to maximise creatine stores.
