Creatine effects?

Use Creapure or pure creatine monohydrate (same thing) the rest are not worth taking. Creatine ethyl esther for example tastes like chalk and gives most people the ****s.
Don't bother with the loading phase either its just a ploy to get you to go through it quicker.
And lastly take it with simple sugars/carbs to help with absoprtion. Fruit juice, dextrose, etc
I wouldn't expect big results from it it just works as a lactic acid buffer really.
Realistically expect to be able to squeeze out an extra rep or two and a slight strength increase, you may feel a little less sore and gain a few lbs of water weight. Don't kid yourself you've gained 4-5lbs of muscle tissue in a week xD

And for me, 152 pound, 3grams per day is good enough

Feels good having a ton of energy at my disposal!!
It's a good product. Best to cycle it as your body get's used to it. I use it on training days only. The one I use is a pre-workout so it get's me amped up for training.
