Hey, I'd need a quick advice from gym-rats.

I'd like to try a 7 days period creatine loading.

I weigh around 88kg, so multiplying by .3 it would make my daily dose around 25gr.

Does anybody have experience with creatine loading? Are there any controindications?

Should I need to train more/harder to keep up with the creatine levels in my muscles?

Side effects, both temporary or permanent?

I came to the same conclusion, but still I'd like to research more. Creatine, hair and kidneys don't match very well apparently.

"Despite some anecdotal reports and experimental data suggesting that creatine could be deleterious to the kidneys, cumulative evidence from independent, randomized controlled trials clearly show this is not the case."

If you know you have kidney disease, maybe skip creatine. Otherwise, go for it.
