WHAT IS CREATINE CYCLING?
We at Sharp Labs Inc. believe that creatine should be taken in amounts based upon one's bodyweight. Studies which have performed with athletes supervised by Dr. Eric Serrano indicate that when loading with creatine, an athlete should take an amount equal to .35g/kg of bodyweight and to maintain creatine stores in the muscle, .15g/kg should be used. Taking creatine in this manner allows for people to consume an amount that meets their own physical needs and maximizes the performance and physique related benefits creatine monohydrate has to offer.
Regarding creatine monohydrate cycles, the current recommendation of loading with creatine for 5 days followed by an indefinite period of maintenance leaves a lot to be desired. First of all, people following this recommendation do not know when or if they should either reload or stop taking creatine at any time and are more than likely wasting both creatine and their money by using to much over an extended period of time. Through a great deal of trial and error with my athletes, I have found it to be more effective to load with creatine, maintain creatine stores for a specific amount of time and then cycling off of creatine prior to performing another loading phase. Outlined below is the cycle that I have found to be most beneficial.
Week 1 (Loading Phase): .35g/kg of bodyweight per day. Divide total daily dosage into 5 doses.
Weeks 2-4 (Maintenance Phase): .15g/kg bodyweight per day.
Week 5: Off
Week 6 (Re-Load): Repeat loading phase using .35g/kg bodyweight per day.
Week 7 (Maintenance): .15/kg bodyweight per day.
Weeks 8-10: Off
This method of creatine cycling allows the user to fully load their muscle cells with creatine, maintain these stores and then take advantage of the partial depletion of creatine that will occur during the off week prior to performing another loading phase. This should allow for athletes to fully adapt to the short-term gains obtained from the loading phase and also obtain continual benefits from each creatine cycle they perform.

Creatine Facts And Articles
Creatine is, and always has been, a natural component of skeletal muscle. The only reason that creatine may seem like something new is a recent boom in scientific research in the area since the early 1990s. In a sense, creatine was rediscovered when world-class athletes became wise to the option of utilizing it to enhance their physical performance. Read More......

First of all, of course you are going to gain weight if you are taking creatine and if you are taking it properly. Being an athlete, you should know muscle weighs more then fat. Also, are you taking the right amount of protein and water? Creatine is fine for women to take. The only downfall would be that some of us women may feel slightly bloated on it. Not a big deal to a serious athlete. Read More......
There have been hundreds of studies done on creatine that all show that it is a safe supplement. There are really very few side effects reported with creatine use but they include: upset stomach, muscle cramping, diarrhea and dehydration. Most of these side effects can be minimized by drinking plenty of water when taking creatine. In addition, people tend to have more side effects when taking the powder as opposed to a more direct delivery method like capsules and other ways. Read More......
