⚡Taking Creatine For 30 Days | What Happens To Your Body?
Day 1: Simply start by taking 5g of creatine daily. On a workout day, take your creatine post-workout, research shows this may increase creatine absorption [1]. On a rest day, take creatine after one of your meals.
Day 3: You will not notice anything physically changing yet. But your muscle cells are starting to store more creatine and this will help your regenerate ATP faster during your workouts [2].
Day 7: You will notice a bit more energy in your training sessions. Most people will experience that they can do around 1 repetition extra on their main compound lifts.
Day 14: At this stage, your muscles are fully saturated with creatine. You continue having good energy in the gym, but you also notice your muscles feeling fuller [3].
Day 21: You feel and look stronger than in the first day because you can train harder. But it is important to mention that creatine’s benefits are small. So expect just a small boost.
Day 30: You can continue taking 5g of creatine per day for the benefits. Research shows that long-term creatine supplementation is safe for individuals with no existing health issues [4].
