7 days.
Start with a loading phase of 5 days, and then start maintanance.
to make it simple (though it varies with the particular creatine your using) take 2 teaspoon for 5 days and then drop down to 1 teaspoon a day.
take it for all 7 days, stopping for 3 days just confuses your body, and you wont get maximal results. I dont have teh time right now, but when i can i'll give you a link on proper dosage and such.
Take the creatine in the morning upon waking up on non workout days, and on workout days, take it post workout with dextrose or sugar.

Totally concur, boss. I've got a 2kg tub of micronized powder Creatine ($40) that I take a rounded teaspoon of in a glass of Cranberry or Grape juice directly after my workout every day. On days off I take it whenever, just not right after citrus juice. It works just fine, and I can tell it's working. Creatine is not a mystery puzzle; it has obvious signs to let you know it is functioning as advertised. You do not have to spend $$$ to get this performance, either. Don't let the supplement companies fool you into supporting their latest BS with your hard-earned cash. There's already enough suckers out there doing that for you.
