| Under Construction Join Date: Apr 2004 Location: essex Posts: 85 Rep Power:  |  Creatine . . . 25g/day loading phase! Can someone explain the loading phase . . . is it really necessary? Also, just purchased some pure monohydrate from muscletech, the instructions say 25g per day during the 'loading' phase and up to 15g per day from there after. Seems a little excessive to me . . . ? Cheers, richtries. p.s. gutted I'm not on the Kre-alkalyn really. |

The loading phase marketing bull comes from an old research article by the Marie Curie institute. They saw that by loading you reached saturation point faster. Sort of common sense really. However most companies immediately jumped on this as a way to sell more of the product. Yes when you reach saturation quicker you get quicker results but then you build tolerance faster. You still reach the same level by using 5g a day just at a slower rate. ______________________ Get an extra 5% off all products at www.mosn.co.uk Use code 'MC 110' when ordering Also mod at www.uk-muscle.co.uk Excellence is a Habit not a skill Any advice I give is from my own experience, I do not recommend the use of drugs. Be responsible and careful if you decide to use any performance enhancing product as misuse can result in dangerous side effects. |
