Will the creatines effects still take effect on my muscles or what|||Yes, it will help you recover. Creatine will make you hold more water though so if you don%26#039;t want excess water weight and feeling blog down it%26#039;s from the creatine. Creatine is probably better used after your muay tai class. Creatine last 1.5 hours to an hour in the blood stream and is then stored in muscles or excreted out.





Creatine is best taken once in the morning and once after working out for 1-2 weeks the loading phase. Then after workouts for a 3 months. (that%26#039;s what mine says) Yours may be different. Post workout you get the best absorption to your muscles.





Note: best is to take creatine before workout and after. Also, it depends on what creatine you buy. Ex: powder, capsules, liquid. Read the label. Manufactures add extra stuff that might benefit in pre or post workouts.





Your body will get use to the effects so you will have to stop completely for a whole month.





The best creatine mix would be NOexplode. It has Nitric Oxide helps you pump harder, some caffeine, and creatine. Designed mainly for pre-workout.

You have to cycle creatine properly when you want to stop taking it. To answer your question if you have gotten a really good muscle pumping work out, after your workout about 30 minutes your muscles start the resting phase and begins to repair. Creatine should be taken before your hard core work out. So in your case if you take the creatine 30 mintues before your muay thai class then you will get the creatine effects. After your workout think about a protien shake drink it with in 30 minutes after you workout. Then 30 minutes before your muay thai workout take your creatine. Every one is different. So do a test trial, but try what I suggested first.|||I assume you are using Creatine for a recovery drink. Chocolate milk, ounce for ounce has the same benefit and costs a fraction of what Creatine costs. From personal experience, after each workout I will usually eat (CLIF bar) and rehydrate (gatorade, water). I will drink the milk if there is a 2 hour break or longer between each workout.. I often workout twice a day -- (I do not eat before a swim) swim, run, and/or bike. The only supplement I take is a one-a-day multivitamin.





** My favorite recovery drink is chocolate milk and I%26#039;ve found little difference in the recovery benefit between that and ISOPURE or creatine but it certainly helps on the wallet and tastes a heck of a lot better. :-D|||Creatine is a waste of money, it doesn%26#039;t work.
