I am going to start using size-on creatine. the directions say to sip it while u work out and in between reps. can i drink half before and half after?
You can, but you would be wasting your money. If the directions say to sip it while you work out, that's exactly what you should do. Creatine is best absorbed gradually, and as your body's need for it increases (during the workout), absorption will get better. Most capsule forms of Creatine simulate this by having a slower release; you take it before your workout, and the capsule gradually releases it into your system. If you take a lot before the workout, most of it will be wasted because your body won't have a need for it, so the excess will get flushed. If you drink a lot after your workout, it will be too late to have any effect on your workout. Creatine is a workout supplement, not a protein shake or meal choice.

Can you take 2 kre alkalyn pill before work out even it says take one pre and 1 post workout and take protein sheak after work out?
Yes, you can take 2 pill's of Kre-Alkalyn before you start you're work out but it will not bring you best results. The reason why you should drink 1 before workout and 1 after is that Kre-Alkalyn is 15 times stronger than regular creatine which means 1 pill is enough to keep the body well supplied during training and the other after training is to replenish the creatine that was used by you're body during exercise so that you creatine levels are constant after workout which will result in better muscle growth.
Is the best way to gain weight to take your protein pre and post-workout and take Creatine right after a workout?
Protein is best after a workout. Muscles rip during exercise and the rebuilding process is what makes them stronger. That's when you need the protein. Also, protein before a workout can cause digestive issues during that workout. ______________________________________________________________________ Answer:Creatine actually causes your muscle cells to absorb more water which makes them look bigger which gives us an illusion of extra size and mass. Effectively speaking, once you cut down on your creatine intake, the muscles would start releasing the excess water and you may end up feeling your muscles shrink in size. But, one good thing about creatine is that, it helps you gain that extra strength needed to do heavy workouts. Though it only packs water into our muscles, a properly administered dosage/cycle of creatine can help you in gaining weight and strength.
