Hey again
Ive been taking creatine ethyl ester for about two weeks now, everything seems fine but i just have two questions concerning it.
Ive been taking 3g post and pre workout, but what is a good time for how long i should take CEE before and after i workout. Its normally around 25minutes for myself- Is that ok?, or should i take the supplement directly before and after i hit the weights??
Also on my cardio workout days i do excercises involving sparring, press ups, crunches and bag work- could i take CEE for these workout days or would it simply be pointless as im not doing no serious weight lifting?
Thanx again
Adil

take it every day regardless of whether u train, and what training it is.

25 minutes might be a little short to take inbetween, but shouldnt cause any real problems. try leaving an hour in between.

its not pointless as if you stop-start taking it, your body will never maximise absorbtion of the substance, so be consistent and take it every day, regardless of training status.

In short, you are probably best taking it every day in order to maximise your body's stores of creatine.

I'm sure things like pressups/sparring could be aided somewhat by increased muscle creatine.

Also, on a non training day, just split your dosage into 2 times - maybe morning and evening.
