@SammyJ21 Studies I read and or am involved with are not anecdotal. I know Kreider, and he would make no such claim studies show long term suppression from creatine supplements. If your entire basis for not agreeing with me is related to client feedback as a personal trainer, then you failed to supply a study and are relying on anecdotal. Regardless, as stated, cycling may be beneficial, but there's no studies to show one vs the other is superior, and some possible benefits to not cycling.

I cycle 2 months ON, 1 month OFF. That has worked best for me.

Every individual is different, stay on creatine like this guy states then check your liver levels, they might be high :) good luck.

I'm currently cycling because I'm afraid that my muscles will be too reliant on creatine to keep them looking lean. Is this the case? I hear only 25% of the creatine actually stores as water in your body the rest of the 75% does not.

Once I read that there are some studies which revealed that there are sportmen/women who took creatin for 4 to 10 years without bad side effects.

@UpTehCooch That can't be true he would be very sick and probably be in the hospital or like brink said dead, because the body needs creatine it produces it naturally in the liver and kidneys for skeletal muscle use. It's an energy that the body needs.

Great info! I am currently taking whey protein and was considering taking creatine for additional benefits, so this was very helpful!
