Creatine Cycling for Massive Muscle Gains

Most weight trainers believe that if they hit the gym 5 or 6 days a week that they will build muscle. Often, they neglect their diet. And then they wonder why they don't gain weight.
Nutrition plays a HUGE role in bodybuilding. In fact, bodybuilding is 80 percent nutrition, 20 percent training. Yeah.
Don't believe me? None other than the Iron Guru himself, Vince Gironda, proclaimed that very thing decades ago. He trained a lot of top bodybuilders, including Mohamed Makawwy, who won a string of IFBB titles in the early 80s.
If it's lacking in supplementation, you're doing yourself a disservice. Besides a top-notch weight gain powder, you need creatine.
Creatine is one of the "super supplements" that you should investigate at the very least. I submit that you should give it a try. Creatine can help you build bigger muscles very quickly.
It's a "must-have" supplement. But just following the instructions on the container will not suffice. What you've got to do is "cycle" it.
Here's how:
- For the first 5 days, take 5 grams of creatine 4 times a day. That's 20 grams total.
- For the following three weeks, take 2-5 grams per day.
- For two weeks, take no creatine.
- Repeat
