How long does it take for Creatine to work?Updated a year ago

The best time to take Creatine is 30 minutes before commencing physical activity. It can also be valuable to include after training, in a recovery shake or post-workout meal. This can help increase your muscle growth and repair(Muszalski, C. 2022).

To achieve consistent results, Creatine can take up to 2-4 weeks to properly kick in. It’s important to be patient as your body adjusts to the intake of Creatine and remain consistent with your usage of the supplement(Rimmer, P. 2021).

The size of your dosages and the frequency in which you use it will also affect how long it takes you to start noticing results.
