You just bought a tub of creatine monohydrate and the label says to take 20 grams a day for the first week.
That sounds like a lot. Do you actually need a creatine loading phase, or can you skip straight to the normal dose?
Loading is not required, but it works faster. Both protocols reach the same muscle saturation level. Loading gets you there in 5-7 days instead of 3-4 weeks.
