While off creatine

[GRIM]

When I cycle off creatine I crash so fng bad. I do take a mix pre workout for my creatine with some added bulk on top of that.

Any recommendations for a good pre workout drink to take that does not have creatine for when I am cycled off?

So sick of this hardcore crash.

crash?? explain?

Energy/power.

heh, probably give it a little time to get energy back. the loss shouldnt be too bad...

Never heard of that-wonder if it isn't more psychological. It could also be sugar related, if you are using one of those sugar laden creatine mixes.

No sugar in my creatine, I use for my primary source Dymatize Expand

It's odd, when I come off creatine my power and strength just zaps. It takes me a bit to recover.

Starting creatine again today, should be back up to normal soon :D

I love that Dymatize Xpand. Some of the best preworkout stuff I ever used. I was mad as heck when GNC quit carrying it. Man I hate GNC!

Yeah it's a great 'complete' mix. Not so sure it's the creatine I'm missing, possibly some of the other ingredients in the mix.

Buy it off the net, much cheaper!
