BTW, nice amount of posts, 666

I was just thinking that!

My current school schedule does not allow me to take it half an hour before i eat breakfast

So you be waking up and just making it to class? You only need to take it 30 mins before you eat.

However.. honestly.. bottom line.. just take it.

For example, I was going to take it after I worked out today... but now today is going to be my non-training day and I'll hit the gym tomorrow. So I'll just take it when I get home.

As far I'm concerned, the most crucial time for supplementation is post-workout.

The other stuff.. ah.. just take it. If you cannot take it early for your reasons, take it after lunch.

I'd just say, don't take the stuff on a full stomach as you want it to be fully absorbed. And take it with a full 16-20oz of water.

I'm really not convinced it will make that big of a difference. As long as you have creatine in your system, it's all good. And the excess you do have stored up by creatine supplementation isn't going to flush out in a day. So you should be just fine.

Directions say take it twice a day, yet not many people are following that because it just doesn't make sense, they want to make it last longer or it doesn't fit the routine.

I wouldn't' worry about it.

Thanks Mark, one more question. My current school schedule does not allow me to take it half an hour before i eat breakfast unless I wake up at a ridiculous time just to take it. Would it be ok to take it before I eat lunch? BTW, nice amount of posts, 666

My Opinion:

Workout Days:

Take it 30 mins before (although with my schedule I'm taking it 30 mins after)

Non-Workout Days:

Take it when you wake up 30 mins before eating your first meal.

I don't take it twice a day either. But I would take it every day. Why? Because creatine should be taken daily once you start the cycle..

First off I'm new to the forum so hello. Anyway, I've only been training hard for about 3 months now and I'm noticing good improvement but I've been reading about creatine supplements and after some recommendation I decided to go with the V12 from SAN. Of course I read the back of the bottle but I don't think I'm going to be taking this stuff twice a day on workout days. My question is this. On workout days is it better to take it before or after my workout? Also, does it really need to be taken on non workout days? I just got it the other day and so far I've taken it one time which was about 30 minutes before my workout. lemme know your opinions. Thanks
