Creatine loading phase

Have any of you had good results from a creatine loafing phase? I’m going to start tomorrow or Monday with 20 grams for the first 5 days and then dial it back to 5 grams per day after that.

I've heard that that just a scam to make you blow through your supply quicker. However, I've never done a loading fase, just started with 5g a day and waited a week or so for full effect.

There's scientific studies on this and it says the loading phase helps with benefits quicker but will be the same later.
So yes, a loading phase is beneficial but not necessary.

Creatine is relatively cheap, so doing a loading phase shouldn't break the bank. One thing to be aware of is stomach discomfort during this phase. It doesn't happen to everyone, but taking in more than 5grams of Creatine a day frick up my stomach.

Takes longer than a week at maintenance dose to reach saturation. It's more like 3 to 4 weeks.
