Taking a creatine supplement is good for me (and the science says that’s true for lots of people!). But I’ve been forgetting to take it for a while, and it’s really best if taken consistently for weeks/months to build up physiologic stores. When I’m taking it, I notice better recovery with my weightlifting and better mental focus/energy. The main barrier is that if I take it on an empty stomach, it causes some upset for me. I haven’t tried splitting the dose throughout the day, that might help…
I’ll try out this new goal with 0.5 doses/day, to account for days where I might forget to take it, and I’ll adjust this up towards 1 dose/day based on how I do in December.
