Default Creatine QUestion

I've been told by a few people that their muscles basically "deflated" after using creatine and then going off of it. Just wondering if this is a normal occurence?
thanx

Splitting the dosage is fine. When I took monohydrate, I just took 1 teaspoon post workout.

If you have already started with 2 and 2, then try 1 and 1 for awhile and see if you get the same results. If you start with 1 and 1, stay with that amount.

When you guys take your post-workout creatine do you wait a certain amount of time before taking your pwo shake?

I usually immediately after my workout put 1 tsp of creatinein my mouth then drink down like koolaide or some other high gi beverage then wait about a half hour b4 i drink my PWO. Give my body time to absorb the creatine.
