vitamin water mixed with a teaspoon of creatine during training. Anybody ever try that? Would it be bad for you to do that? I was just thinking about doing that

i don't see any advantage to drinking vitamin water during training and adding creatine. its not like the creatine will be giving you an added "energy boost." i think a common misconception is that when you take creatine it is used immediately to help fuel that days workout. If this were true, there would be no sense in a loading phase. Creatine takes time to be absorbed, its not like an NO product where you might feel it during a workout. just stick to taking your creatine pre and post workout. and i think vitamin water is a ripoff...just drink normal water and take a multivitamin everyday.

I never drink vitamin water. Besides the fact that its promoted by a rapper.

I stick to a brand of water called New York Tap and just use a multivitamin.

how much pre and post of creatin should you take.

thats is a very debatable topic. there are numerous ways to take your creatine. after your loading phase...
you could take

2.5 grams pre andpost
others take 5 grams pre and post
and then others take only 5 grams post.
