Creatine Monohydrate Loading

Creatine Monohydrate Loading method is, to increase creatine that is stored in the muscle. It involves taking certain amount of creatine for few days.

Creatine monohydrate loading involves two stages;

First stage is the loading stage, where higher dose of creatine is used. That is 20 to 25 grams over 5 to 6 days. So overall you will take 5g of creatine 4 times a day through the 5 - 6 days. After the loading stage, you go back to normal dosage for maintenance (5g/day). 

For creatine monohydrate loading, you can use the below 8 week cycle:

First week: 20g creatine monohydrate loading (5g, 4 time a day)
Week 2 to 8: 5g creatine monohydrate in daily basis

After the cycle, stop for a month, then do a 6 week Creatine Monohydrate Loading cycle.
