I need to max soon and was wondering since the whole reason we take creatine is because its a essential chemical that helps to contract our muscles and help us lift more and longer. Than would it be beneficial to take a shit load of creatine before maxing out to push out a couple extra pounds and reps? Right now i'm on Swolve V.2, but I need to max out soon on a few things (Bench, Incline bench, and Squat) so I was thinking i'd just load up on creatine on top of that like the day before maxing.

I was curious if taking a shit load of creatine before hand if that would help my max's? I don't care if the numbers won't be real and the loading is helping me push a 5 more lbs than i normally can, I just want to know if it would help me or not.

Any ideas? If you think it would work how much do you think it would take to be beneficial and when should i take it before maxing?
