Thoughts on how much Creatine to take

[Schneider69]

I'm 16 and have recently started taking creatine, the bag of it said to only take 5g per day but I am seeing in a lot of places that taking up to 20g can be really beneficial. I myself and a very fit person going to the gym and training MMA nearly every day of the week. Just wanted to know anyone's who's taken 20g of creatine per day thoughts on it.

20g sounds torturous, i cap myself at 10g but in all reality there is no reason to limit yourself.

people only take 20g of creatine for the loading phase (first two weeks) to saturate muscles faster but otherwise i would recommend taking 5-10g to save money.
