Do you take Creatine before or after a workout?Updated a year ago

Creatine can be taken before and after a workout and is effective in both avenues. Taking creatine before a workout or mixing it with your pre-workout can help you to optimise your creatine stores before a session(Muszalski, C. 2022).

Despite this, research does suggest that taking creatine after your workout may be most optimal as it increases your lean muscle mass when combined with resistance training(Dvorak, A. 2022).
